*phone ringing*
“Hello?” I said in a raspy voice.

“Hey Riley, are you okay I tried phoning you last night but there was no answer.”

*clears throat* “Wade it’s 6 o’clock, did you have to phone so early?” I whine “Yes I’m fine I er… just left my phone on silent and eventually fell asleep.”

Pssh we both know I was busy kicking some serious ass.*wink wink*

“Okay. Can I pick you up? I mean for breakfast because I’m going to stop at Nadines’ café for pancakes. I mean you’re not forced to com-” He rambles nervously

“Aww that would be lovely, what time should I be ready?”

“We could leave it for- Wait you said you’ll come? *nervous laughing* Uh be ready at 7.” He says

“Okay then I’ll see you in an hour.” I smile to myself

_______________End of call_____________________

What should I wear? Hmm… a dress, shorts, jumpsuit- wait a minute this is not a date so why am I stressing?

I eventually found denim jeans that’s ripped by the knee, since today will be a bit chilly I’ll use a white long sleeve off shoulder top, paired with white Adidas shoes.

I did my usual routine of using the toilet, brushing my teeth and having a bath. That reminds me I need to go to the salon and try to take this colour out of my hair. If I don’t then it’ll be a quick way for Samantha to mock and laugh at me.

I got dressed and combed my hair into a high ponytail and put on some mascara and highlighter. I still had about 15 minutes so I decided to wait downstairs.

“Good morning angel.” I froze

“Hi.” I muttered

“Missed me?” Fred smirks

“Morning Riley, we arrived last night. I saw you were sleeping so I didn’t want to disturb.” Mom smiles and opened her arms to embrace me in a tight hug.

“O-okay, I’m just going to wait outside.”

“Why? Don’t you want to spend time with your parents?” She asks

“Yes angel?” Fred mocks

“Mom for the last time it’s parent not parents.” I muttered annoyed

“Well you’re wro-“ *car hooting*

“I’m going to school.” I said and left

“Hey, you ready to go?” Wade asks politely

“Hellooos, yeah lets go.”

“You want to play some music?”

“Yeah sure!” I grabbed the aux cord and started blasting Better with you by Austin Mahone

I wasn’t planning on sitting quiet so I started singing. I kept stealing glances at Wade and to my surprise the badboy was singing softly to himself.

“I didn’t know that you know this song.” I said shocked

“I-I since you caught me I might as well tell you.” *he sighs* “My cousin is obsessed over the singer so I’m used to listening to his songs. She even gifted me his CD.” He says rolling his eyes

“Well I find that cute.” I smiled. After playing 1 more song we arrived.

We walked towards the door which Wade had opened for me. We got seated, placed our order and got enveloped in small talk.
