Changed (( Joshler ))

Tyler's POV

It's been four months today since school started. I tried to make good first impressions, and so far only one of the fifteen of them were successful. A fairly tall boy by the name of Joshua Dun. He has fluffy brown hair and the most adoring dark brown eyes. From what i could make up of him, he seemed to have a charming complexion, warming almost. He seemed to know everyone from the slight glimpse i saw of him from exchanging classes.

Four months of coming to a completely different school, with new groups of people and all sorts of different cliques and I somehow managed to make one friend. I don't know if i could even call him a friend yet. we had a short conversation but it felt as if it went on for hours. we bonded over our similar tastes in music which consisted of the bands Green Day, My Chemical Romance, and Blink-182.  He started to ask about my phone number but he was interrupted as our English teacher was trying to direct the attention of the class back on her lesson.

Throughout English my mind was trailing off and I started to think about Josh. I realized we had shared first period, fourth period, and fith period together. I never really noticed but I was sitting next to him in all of our classes shared. At the end of class he walked up to me.

"Hey, so I was wondering if you have a phone or something so that we could maybe, talk sometime?"

My heart felt like it was going to explode out of my chest. I don't know what these feelings were. All I know was that I had forgotten about everything else that had happened that day. It felt as if there were butterflies flapping their wings rapidly inside of my stomach. I felt a smile spread across my face along with heat that brushed over my pudgy cheeks.

I was probably the only person in school who didn't have the Nokia 5190 so I gave him my house number. I was so excited when i got home, and then started to feel a pit form inside of my stomach as I realized tonight was the annual Fall Festival at school. That meant he would not be able to talk tonight. I know we had just met but I had already missed him.

Suddenly, i heard my house phone ring. I looked at the time and it was around 7:30 when the festival was supposed to end. That night we talked for hours. I was happy. It was my first night since school started where i was smiling instead of crying. I felt okay for once, safe even. When josh had to leave, I fell asleep with a smile spread across my face.

Josh made me feel something I had never felt before. Happiness. For the first time in four months, I was excited to go to school tomorrow.
