I woke up to my ringtone blaring right by my ear. My eyes flutter open and I check the caller ID, squinting at the sudden brightness. It was Jamie. I groaned and pressed answer.
“Hello?”
“Good morning sleeping beauty,” she says in a much too happy for morning voice. That’s when I remembered that she had left last night for her business trip.
“Oh my god! I’m sorry! I didn’t say goodbye and-“
“Now before you start freaking out, it’s alright. Just calm down. I’ll be back by Sunday morning, okay? I just wanted to make sure you were alright after last night. You seemed a little upset.”
“I’m fine,” I tell her.
“Uh huh. I’ll be talking to you about this when I get back. No exceptions. Until then stay out of trouble. The weekend will pass before you know it.”
I sigh. “Okay. Thanks, Jamie.”
“You’re welcome. Bye.”
“See you Sunday. Bye.”
I hung up and fell back onto my bed. I didn’t feel like doing anything today, but I remembered I had plans with Adam. I forced myself out of bed and dragged my body to the shower. By the time I got out I had received a new text. I smiled when I saw Adam’s name right next to it.
Adam: Hey! (: Don’t forget about our plans. I can’t wait. Picking you up at noon :) x
Reply: How could I ever forget? I’m really excited :) xx
After getting dressed I looked in the mirror, unsatisfied with my clothing choice. I only had about two hours until Adam would be here. I guess I could spend a little time picking an outfit. And I’ll need time for makeup too. And maybe hair.
I mean it’s not really a big deal. We’re only hanging out. We’ll probably just go grab some food or something. But for some reason I felt the need to impress him. I don’t understand though because we’re only friends, right? I just met the guy yesterday. And I have Harry. There’s no one else I should need to win over. I’m being silly.
~*~*~*~
As the clock on my nightstand struck twelve I was in a complete panic. He should be here any minute. I grabbed my purse and phone before hurrying down the steps to wait.
I glanced at the screen to find a missed call and a new message from Harry. I cursed under my breath as I quickly replied to him.
Harry: Hey, you still sleeping?? Haha wake up beautiful :) xx
Reply: Just woke up :) guess I was tired. Good morning<3 I’m actually about to head out soon so I can’t talk, but I’ll call you later. I promise xx
