Lily's POV

When I wake up all last night's events unfold in my head:

•going on a date with Luke

•kissing

•some strange girl

•heartbroken

•fighting

•crying

Most of all...

•breaking up

I see Luke's concerned face in my thoughts but I push it away.

'Just forget him.' I think to myself.

I sigh.

Then I roll over onto my right side to check my phone.

No messages from Luke.

I figured as much.

There is a text from Calum though.

I click on my messages and find his name first with a cheesy but still cute line:

From Calum: ι need a вand-aιd qυιcĸ!!! ι ѕcraped мy ĸnee ғallιng ғor yoυ! 😉😉 goodмornιng вeaυтιғυl!

I smile and text back.

To Calum: rιgнт вacĸ aтcнa нandѕoмe! 😘goodмornιng!

I check the time:

9:30.

I roll out of bed and head to the bathroom to get ready for the day. I stop halfway there and then turn around and go back to my phone which just 'dinged' with a text.

From Calum: ι waѕ тнιnĸιng мayвe we coυld go oυт тo lunch today. noт aѕ a daтe вυт aѕ a ғrιendly ĸιnd oғ тнιng. yoυ υp ғor ιт? 😃

I don't really have anything else better to do today anyway so I text back.

To Calum: ѕυre тнιng! wнaт тιмe? 😊

He responds a few seconds later.

From Calum: doeѕ 12:00 worĸ ғor yoυ?

To Calum: yeaн. тнaт'ѕ perғecт. ѕee ya тнen! 😘

From Calum: cool!☺️ вye вeaυтιғυl!

I smile and walk to the bathroom.

I apply light makeup and brush my teeth.

Then I brush my hair which surprisingly isn't that tangled today.

I walk our to my closet and pull out a flowy turquoise tank-top and jean short-shorts.

Then I slip on my navy blue keds.

I check the time and see it's only 11:25.

I finished with plenty of time to spare.

I sit down in my bed and scroll through Instagram. I've gained over a thousand followers over the last week. Woah!

I'm still getting hate but I'm used to it. I just ignore it now.

I post a picture of my outfit and caption it with:

#selfiesunday 😜goιn oυт тoday!️😜

I get 100 likes in only a few seconds.

It's 11:50 now. Geez! Time is flying by today!

I slide my phone in my pocket and I grab some money from my dresser.

It's been a while since I met the boys but it feels like I've known them forever. I can't even imagine what it will be like when they're gone. Sure well still text and call but we'll miss each other like crazy.

I hear a knock in my door. I open it to find Calum standing there in a white t-shirt, black knee-length shorts, a gray beanie and blue sneakers. It reminds me so much of the day Luke and I met.

I feel my stomach drop.

"Hey, you ready?" Calum asks, snapping me out of my thoughts.

I nod. "Yeah. Let's go."

He grabs my hand in his and we walk down the long hallway.

We're going on a "friendly-date".
