Otto's pov:
Los Angeles was different than I expected. It wasn't necessarily unpleasant, just busy.
I could tell it wasn't Geoff's scene, he was clutching tightly to the straps on his backpack and bouncing his leg rhythmically.
"Hey, you alright?" I might be mad at him but I'm not a total bitch.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Kind of a hectic vacation spot." His laugh sounded thin.
I directed the Uber to the Airbnb that we were staying at for the 4 days we're here.
"You wanna stay in tonight," Geoff offered a wobbly smile.
I shrugged. It felt pointless to travel somewhere just to "stay in" but it was only Thursday. Tomorrow I'll get to go out with Awsten.
"Uh huh," I responded with a sigh.
I turned away from Geoff and pulled my legs up onto the car seat.
Taking out my phone I read my missed messages from Awsten.
Awsten: hey
Awsten: you there?
Awsten: i have some exciting news!!
I smiled as I typed my reply.
Otto: Wait don't tell me... did barista bitch die?
Awsten: no but that would be fantastic
Awsten: hey wait are you in LA yet
Otto: Just got here
Otto: What was the exciting news??
I watched as Awsten's icon went from typing to silent and back to typing again. A few minutes passed before I gave up and clicked my phone off. I'd respond to him later.
We were probably getting close to the Airbnb soon anyway.
