Lovesick

You walk towards the middle of the street as you gather ink for a super jump

(I should jump this way, then this way... then this way I guess)

Using your phone's GPS, you mapped your route back to Splatsville. You turn around and look at the apartment building

(Callie—)

The feeling of her lips against your own lingered, it was all you could think about

(This isn't good)

With a long exhale you slip your phone in your pocket and slightly squat

BOOM

In an instant you ascended a couple hundred feet and continued to at an unusual speed

( What the ? )

Startled, you cast your gaze below and immediately regret your decision.

(Way too high...)

Disoriented from the jump, you scan your surroundings to determine where you currently were. The floodlights from Hammerhead Bridge cross your sight temporarily blinding you 

(I didn't even use that much ink..)

You had cleared the distance from Inkopolis to the bridge in one jump

(I bet Callie-)

You leave the thought unfinished as you begin to descend back to the ground. As soon as your feet make contact—

BOOM

You immediately jump and cut through the air with more force than the last. Nearby cars shook from the takeoff

(Damn I'm on one tonight )

With another jump, you were practically in Splatsville. You decide to land on the roof of your apartment building

(Man what was that)

As you walk down the hall you replay your kiss with Callie through your head, though your thoughts never truly left it

As you turn the key in the doorknob a heavy feeling begins to fill you

(I want to kiss her again...)

You head inside, set down your keys, and immediately take a seat on your floor pillow. You pull out your phone but freeze

(I should text her. Nah that might be doing too much, probably wait for her to text me. )

You set your phone down as you contemplate

Callie: Text me when you make it home

Her last words before her departure rang through your mind

(That's an excuse to talk to her !)

You pick your phone up so fast that it flies out of your hand

Y/N: I made it home

You stare at your phone direly awaiting her response, heart pounding

Callie: kk

You stare at her two letter response trying to decide whether to leave it at that or continue.

(We just kissed, she's gotta respond)

Y/N: wyd?

(Something calm )

You set your phone down and sink into your seat as you await her response
