Text messages

— You see that ? I bragged showing Margo the screen of my phone where we could see Gwen's contact was saved in. Yea me and her finally exchanged numbers, so now I can text her anytime. And I'm pretty proud of myself for that achievement to be honest. Now we good again, everything's going great. I turned off my phone and put my two arms crossed behind my head.

— Miles you didn't just bring me to a restaurant to talk about another girl. She told me slowly shaking her head in disbelief. I removed my hands from behind my head and sat back straight.

— What's wrong ?

— I don't know, I mean we're here to work, plus it's rude. She stated crossing her arms. Would you like it if I kept talking about some dude all the time while I invited you somewhere ?

— I wouldn't really mind in fact. I shrugged and kind of regretted it when she rolled her eyes.

— You're so stupid.. she whispered.

— I heard that ! I informed her in a fake offended tone.

— Let's get to work. She simply answered and I lifted my eyebrow. Why is she so tense damn.

— Chill we ain't even ordered yet !

— I don't have money right now Miles. She sighed. She looked so done with me and it was funny but I didn't see why she was.

— That's not a problem, I invited you so I am paying, order whatever you want. I smiled trying to reassure her. She looked at me for a second before lowering her eyes to the menu. We soon called the waiter and ordered.

—- So I guess we will finally be meeting Gwen, after hearing about her for more than a week. She said in a kinda sarcastic tone. Maybe invite her to our table at lunch

— Yea I guess... I shrugged. Depends on what she's doing at these times. I replied and she nodded. We were sipping our drinks and a silence took place but was quickly cut.

— You like her ? Margo asked me.

— Um... yea kinda.. I admitted clearing my throat. I never really talked feelings with her so it was weird.

Surprisingly we didn't exchange much words during our time there but at least we had completely wrapped up our project and we were good for tomorrow. We got back to school and went into our dorms. When I entered Ganke was already sleeping so I put my pjs in the dark with minus noise to avoid waking him. I went to my bed and the second I turned on my phone I received a message notification. It was from Gwen.

Damn she sent the first message !
