I check what time quarter the game is in. It's in the 4th quarter with 10 minutes left. I chew my nails impatiently as I watch the game. This is super important. If I do anything embarrassing at this meet-up, I won't be able to talk to him anymore. As a player scores a touchdown, I see my mom jump up with the rest of the Eagles fans and cheer. I chuckle as I sip my Sprite.

"See? This is fun, I bet you are enjoying it. Although, I do leave about 5 minutes before the game ends so there isn't too much traffic," my mom explains as she squints to see the scoreboard. I look up and it says 7 minutes left.

"Okay, gather all of your belongings now. Oh, what entrance did we come into?" My mom adds, wracking her brain to find the door number.

"Entrance 2, I believe," I state. She thinks, then nods, then stares, then smiles.

"Okay, you are probably right. Gosh, what would I do without my wonderful daughter, right?" I laugh as my mom says this. She kisses my forehead as the Eagles score another touchdown. "Okay, we can go now."

"Uh, mom, you didn't pack your stuff up," I remind.

"Oh, you're totally right. Okay, just gimme a second," my mom replies as I pull out my phone to text Walker.

I shuffle through the crowded rows of football fans as we try to leave. We finally get out of the rows of seats as we start walking up all of the steps. This feels extremely exciting. Getting to meet your celebrity crush in person. Better yet, he's your friend! I put on some lip gloss as we approach the exit. I look around for any blond, curly boys. None. I do see a blond girl with a brunette dude and another sibling looking around. That's probably them, since I see parents walking behind them. I text Walker, here. act like im a total stranger and just a fan. The group stops and my mom and I walk to the exit. I frantically tap my mom's shoulder.

"Mom, look, it's the actor of Percy Jackson! Can I please say hi?" I ask, pointing at the family. Walker sees me and tries not to laugh. His smile is bright and friendly as he waves to me.

"Okay, but I wanna say hi too!" My mom exclaims, laughing. We walk up to the group, Leena seeing me and grinning.

"Oh, look, Walker, it's your girlfriend!" Tanner says. Oh! Well, that blows our cover.

"Uhm, Delilah, who is that little boy?" My mom questions, trying not to laugh. She also looks confused and purses her lips. "You two know each other." Walker and I glance at each other, not knowing what to say. I mean, they aren't wrong. But, no point in lying now. I walk up to him and embrace the blond boy. I guess he didn't expect it since his body freezes, but eventually relaxes as he hugs back. He feels warm, and it's comforting to know that he is a real friend.

"Wait, are you two actually dating?" Walker's mom asks, ruining our moment. I shake my head.

"No, Tanner was just trying to get me into trouble," Walker remarks, punching his little brother's shoulder. Walker turns back to me and notices my outfit. I feel my heart beating like crazy as I really realize that I just hugged Walker Scobell. Uhm, hello, most important day of my life!

"Well, I assume you two want to hang out," my mom says, taking her phone out. "Miss, do you want to plan this out over the phone or...?"

"Yes, that works," Walker's mom replies. Walker and I look at each other, basically jumping for joy. I notice Leena and her boyfriend smile at us in my peripheral vision, and my heart beats a million times per second.
