He handed me back my phone. "I recognise that number. I just don't know who's", he said thinking very hard. His thinking face is so adorable!!

I didnt realise i was day dreaming until he snapped me out of my little world. "Ash? Ashleigh! BRACE FACE!", he said snapping his fingers in my face.

This made me jump causing me to fall off my bed, "are you alright?", Caspar said helping me up but laughing a little.

"It's not funny", I said hitting him which of course made me more scared than ever, he gave me a glare, "s-sorry", I said looking down in shame and pretended to tidy up my desk a little to avoid eye contact.

There was silence, "do I scare you Ash?", he asked. Now he's even using my nick name, the nice one not the horrible nick name they gave me.

I gulped. If i make one wrong move, I can die today. "Y-yes", I whispered. I heard footsteps coming towards me. I can feel myself physically shaking.

He grabbed my hands to encourage me to face him. "You know I don't mean all those things", he said still gripped onto my hands, "well some of them anyway", he said shrugging.

"Then why say it?"  I asked pushing my glasses a little higher so I could see his face.

"Because I have this reputation of being the popular kid and my job is to make fun of people who has a reputation like you", he said with a smile.

He really thinks that's going to make things better. "Get out", I said with gritted teeth.

"What?", he asked. I pulled my hands away from his.

"I SAID GET OUT!", I yell in anger.

Now I'm shaking with anger. "FINE!", he said then stormed out of my room and out of the house.

I went and sat in the corner of my room, knees pressed tightly on my chest as I cry my eyes out.

*Knock Knock*, "Ash, it's me", Becca said from the other side of my white wooden colonial style door.

"It's s open", I said still sat in my position.

"Joes here too", she said.

"Come in", I said looking up.

I took my glasses off to wipe my face. "What happened this time?", Becca asked as they both sat on either side of me.

"He is such a prick", I said with gritted teeth.

"We know Ash, we know", Joe said rubbing my legs in attempt of comfort.

"Oh Ash you have a text from.. stranger?", Becca said passing me my phone.

I grabbed it instantly:

From: Stranger :P

After the science fair

"Whats after the science fair?", Joe asked reading from my phone.

"I get to meet this person. He's been so nice", i said wiping my face then smiled.

"C-can I see that number again?", Joe asked and flipped his phone out from his back pocket.

I handed him my phone and he observed both phones eyes constantly switching from phone to phone. I'm guessing he knows who it is.

Becca then shuffled next to Joe, "oh my gosh. That cant be right can it?" Becca asked Joe. I tried peeping to see who it was but it was too late, Joe already locked his phone.

"That is twisted", Joe said shaking his head.

"What? Who is it? Please tell me", I begged both of them.
