I looked at my phone, 3 missed calls from mom, one missed call from James. I swallowed. Fuck. I called her back and after the second ring she took up.

„Hey my dear." she said, „Hello mom," I answered and bit my tongue .I was kinda scared that I did something wrong and James would slap me again.

„I just wanted to call u to tell u that I and James are going to be out of town for a few days maybe two or three." I felt relief. I thought I would get slapped if I come home. And except for the fact that she forgot my birthday tomorrow was everything okay.

„Okay, is everything alright? Why do you leave ?" Mom giggled „Don't be scared it's just because of James' job, everything is okay, there is some money on the kitchen table if u need to go to the supermarket to get food."

I heard a car in the background „I got to go now if u need anything call me or ur dad bye-bye." I looked at my phone. Did she say, dad?

I shook my head, she would never. Suddenly I felt a warm hand on my shoulder. I knew exactly who it was. I closed my eyes and breathed in to concentrate, then I opened them.

„Hey, Shorty." His voice gave me goosebumps, and his hand on my shoulder didn't let them go away. I thought about yesterday and looked at the floor. I was so embarrassed.

„Hello, Louis," I said and lifted my look. He stood in front of me, his hand still on my shoulder. He smiled goofily. „Could you please stop touching me?" I mumbled and looked at his arm that made us keep the distance.

„Why? Do I make u nervous?" he whispered and came closer. I swallowed, if he would've come one-centimeter closer I would've completely lose my mind. I took a step backward „No it's just..."

„Hey, Louis!" I heard a men's voice behind me and turned around. A boy came towards us, I thought I saw him before.

Louis stood next to me „Hey." he said and did this boy handshake thing with him. I looked between them.

The boy with the dark blonde hair looked at me and then at Louis „You guys would make a cute couple." I rolled my eyes „Nope I would break his heart." I Heard- Louis deep laugh and felt these goosebumps again. I didn't know why I said that. I guess I said it because I was scared to get my heart broken fist, doesn't matter if it would be in a relationship with Louis or anyone else.

„I would break ur heart first," He said and looked at my face. I swallowed and turned to him arms crossed „No you would not." he came one step closer „Why?" „No one...b breaks my heart." why the fuck did I stutter.

I looked at his face and saw his uncertain look. Suddenly he looked serious.

„Okay I'm sorry to interrupt u guys but Louis, Lance and I wanted to go to the Stadion today, you want to come?."

„I have something to do," he said still looking in my eyes. „Okayyyy See u then." the boy said and left us.

I cleared my throat and looked away „So what do u do today that u can't spend time with your friends."

He ran a hand thru his dark hair and looked at the sky „Driving you home I guess." I shook my head „ it's ok I'm going to walk."

„That was not a question Claire, I'm going to drive you home now." I stopped breathing, the way he said my name was unbelievable....hot

„I'm going to walk it's okay, as I said."

„It's going to rain in a few minutes."

„I don't care I'm not made out of Sugar."

„But u can get ill."

„I just have to walk 2 blocks."

„Stop Talking don't you realize that I'm trying to be nice to you ?" I looked at his face again and he smiled. I didn't want to spend more time with this boy, I wasn't concentrated at all when he's around and he knew something he shouldn't know. But I said okay.

We didn't talk the whole way home and I was glad he didn't talk about yesterday.

The Apartment was so quiet when I unlocked the door and went to my room.

During my homework I got a message from Instagram, I got on my phone and looked at the message, Louispartridge_ wants to follow you.

I clicked at his account and stopped breathing. What the hell 6.5 Million? I looked at the posts, and emely didn't lie he was a model. I looked at one picture of him in Paris and zoomed in. He looked so happy. I accidentally double-tapped my screen. I clapped my hand against my forehead. Wow.

I wanted to sink into the ground and I tried to convince myself that it would be normal to like a post of him, I put my phone away and tried to concentrate again.

I spend the rest of the evening on my phone, I called Emely to tell her what we did in history and then I was on TikTok for a while Until I got hungry and ate a sandwich in the kitchen.

Then I got ready for bed suddenly my phone started to ring. „Hello?" I said asking „Hey Claire, sorry if I woke u up." it was Mike, I laughed quite „No u didn't everything is alright." „Ok good," he said a little embarrassed. „I just wanted to ask if you would like to hang out tomorrow or something."

I smiled „That would be nice." tomorrow would be my 17 birthday. I didn't celebrate my birthdays since I was like 14. I didn't know why. But I knew it would be cool to spend time with someone who makes me laugh on my birthday.
