Ryan- happy birthday!!!

Alyssa- Thank you

Ryan- are you coming to school today

Alyssa- probably

Ryan- oh well I hope you do because I have a gift for you

Alyssa- A GIFT OMG YOU'RE THE BEST

Ryan- I hope you like it it would be really embarrassing if you didn't

Alyssa- I'm very suspicious of what it is now

Ryan- now I'm nervous to give it to you

Alyssa- hmm I'm confused

Ryan- just wait for history and you'll see

Confused I get out of my bed and get ready for the day

As I look for something to wear there's a knock at my door

"Come in"

The door opens and my brothers walk in singing Happy Birthday while Jonah holds a cupcake with a candle on top

"Thank you" I tell them after blowing out the candle

I hug them all and start eating the cupcake

"I can't believe you're 15 already soon you'll be driving and voting and going to college and oh no drinking and getting married and having children and-"

"Jonah chill"

"Im sorry it's just you're growing up too much" he starts to cry and I hug him

"Don't worry I can barely walk I'm not even close to driving or really any of that"

He kisses the top of my head and wipes his eyes

"I really need to not be so sensitive when it comes to you"

"It's fine... sometimes. Well now get out I have to get ready"

I get to school in a good mood. I'm excited to see Ryan because well he's my friend and I'm excited to see him

I sit in my seat and wait for him to show up

As I wait I go on my phone to waste time. I answer texts from people on my brothers team saying happy birthday

"Hey" Ryan says making me lift my head from my phone

"Hi" I respond

"Here's your gift" he smiles and hands me a small gift bag

I open it and see three cute purple string bracelets idk how to explain just know it's very cute

"I love them thank you" I put them on my wrist and stand up to hug him

I hug him and we sit down

"Why were you so nervous to give me this"

"Oh well I have the same ones and they're like friendship bracelets" he moves his sleeve down and I see he has the same bracelets but in blue

"Omg we're really best friends now"

"Yeah. Well what are you doing today for your birthday"

"What I do everyday go home, go to soccer, and sleep"

"Are you not going to have a birthday party"

"See you kind of need friends to have a party"

"You have friends"

"I really don't. All the soccer girls turned on me because of Maya, Cam and his friends obviously hate me, and my best friend well died a while ago so"

"Oh..."

"Yeah"

"Well we have that project. When I come over we can have a two of us party aka just not doing our work" he suggests and I laugh

"Also I can introduce you too some of my Boston friends by the time we're together they'll be at lunch"

"That sounds fun"

"It will be"

The school days over and now me and Ryan are walking back to my house. Ryan isn't used to it being warm in January so he wanted to experience it.

As we walk to my house he FaceTimes his friends

"They're really annoying btw" he says and I laugh

"I am too"

He smiles and his friends accept

Listen I am a girl and I do not know how boys act when they are alone together so just enjoy my bad attempts at a boy convo

"Yo bro we miss you" see

"I miss you guys too"

"Are you ever going to come and visit us"

"hopefully not I can't deal with you crackheads"

"Woah don't be so rude anyways why are you FaceTiming us"

"cause I wanted to"

"Cool anyways have you seen any hot L.A girls while you've been there"

"Ooo have you" I ask

"Who's that?" His friend asks

"Oh my friend Alyssa" he turns his phone to me and I smile

"Dang you have seen some hot L.A girls"

"DAVID!!!" Ryan yells and I blush

"What she's hot"

"And she's not looking for a boyfriend"

"Says who" I say looking at him

"Says our conversations about you know who"

"Wouldn't they actually mean I do want a boyfriend. I mean not a him boyfriend but an actual non cheating asshole"

"I guess but-"

"So you're single?" His friend asks

"I'm as single as the girls Beyoncé's talks to in her song" get it

"I don't get it"

"Never mind"

"Well we gotta go we have a project to do so bye"

"Project or project" his friend says with a smirk and wink

"Just a project now bye"

He hangs up and puts his phone away

"Sorry about that"

"It's fine. But I don't like him"

"Yeah me either. I mean who doesn't know single ladies."

"Omg you got my joke"

"Um yeah cause you're single. And in the song she literally says all the single ladies all the single ladies. Aka you"

"See I knew you were my best friend" I put my head on his shoulder and we get into my neighborhood. He puts his arm around my waist and we get to my house

I remove my head as I open the door however his arm is still around my waist when we walk in

He sees my brothers looking at us from the kitchen and quickly removes it

It's about to get good
