Connection chapter 7 – hey

y/n's POV:

When I wake up this morning, Ruel is the only thing on my mind. Why can't I stop thinking about him? Ugh I am being silly. I just need to forget about him. But I kind of don't want to. It feels like I need to see him again. But how? He's famous and I'm just a regular girl from Brisbane. There is no way I'll see him again. I sigh and hop out of bed. I walk downstairs and watch tv for a bit.

*a few hours later*

Mum: "y/n how long have you been watching Spongebob for?" She laughs at me as she grabs her keys.

Oh my goodness. It's 12:30pm. I am not good at keeping track of time.

y/n: "I have no idea but a while I think. Where are you going?"

Mum: "Out for lunch. Do you want to come?"

y/n: "Yeah sure. Give me ten minutes!"

I quickly run to the bathroom and jump in the shower for about a minute then get out. I put on a summery dress and brush my hair and teeth. On the way out I grab my sandals and follow mum out the door.

*sitting at the café*

As we eat lunch a notification pops up on my phone.

y/n: "Woah he wants to follow me!"

Mum: "Who does?"

y/n: "Oh um no one."

I didn't realise I said it out loud.

Why does he want to follow me? How did he even find me? This is kinda weird but amazing at the same time. Maybe it's a mistake? Maybe he follows all of his fans? I don't know.

I accept the follow request and put my phone away as we finish up our food.

Ruel's POV:

As we are finishing up soundcheck for Laneway in Sydney tonight, Coco hands me my phone.

Coco: "Look who accepted your follow request Ruel!"

Ruel: "Wait really? Yes! Thank you so much Coco you are the best."

I go and hug her.

Nate: "Thanks Coco but couldn't you have waited five more minutes? We were almost done."

Coco: "Come on Nate. It's really important to him."

Nate: "Whatever. As long as it's not more important than his singing, I don't really care what he does. Go on Ruel you are finished for now. Be ready for tonight."

Ruel: "Thanks Nate. See ya!" I say as I run off the stage and out the back.

I sit down on the couch with Coco and look on Instagram. I look at her recent post.

Coco: "Wow she is so pretty

Coco: "Wow she is so pretty."

Ruel: "Now do you know why I want her so bad?"

Coco: "Yeah."

Ruel: "Well what do I do now?"

Coco: "Send her a dm. That's probably the only way you will get to talk to her."

Ruel: "Okay but what do I say?"

Coco: "Hey."

Ruel: "Just hey?"

Coco: "Yeah start off small."

I hesitate at first, but I type it in and hit send.
