*Authors note*: Sorry guys, took so long to update. I really needed to think about this day, so it'd be good enough for you. Lovely loving you. Keep reading. Thank you. (: 

 

Audrey's POV

Today was very special. At least, I think. 

Something's ringing. I'm doing my projects, please. Not now. I was thinking of Caleb, time to time, but I really needed to finish this essay. 

I guess a glimpse wouldn't hurt. And I see the caller ID:

MOMMA'S BOY 

Aha, that name got me every time. I laugh at the name, but then. Oh crap. It's him. I just realized it. 

So I stare at the phone. Hmn. Should I answer? Isn't he supposed to be resting?  I pace around my room, looking at the posters hung around the wall. What should I do girls, what should I do.

 I take the phone, hold it to my ear just staring at the ceiling in wonder.

"Hello?" 

"Hey. It's Caleb. Are you busy today?" 

"Nope. Free as a bird. Why?" 

"I was wondering..."

Aha, I was wondering too. But I got really anxious, really rushing him, cause I gotta finish this thing.

"What we're you wondering, Caleb?" 

It's quiet. Did he sleep on me again? I was about to hang up, just when I heard him speak again.

"Would you like to go out today?" 

Dead silence. I was busy. But I guess it wouldn't hurt. It was a day off anyway. No one would have to be near us. No one that he knew of. But he doesn't even know me! Anymore at least. I give it a shot, considering I've left him there for about 5 minutes.

"Uh, Hello? Are you still there?" 

"Yeah, yeah. Um. Okay? What time?" 

"Come over. I need to talk to you. Then we'll go out." 

"Alright. See you soon." 

"Okay, Bye!"

What's he so happy about. I've gotta finish this essay, but he wants to go out. I guess one day wouldn't be harmful to school. And its Mr. Chelly's class all over again. 

So. I get a plain shirt, floral pants and leave the flat. I text my mother I will be with Caleb and strut my stuff 'till the end of the block.
