yes i drew that and i suck at drawing ppl so.. anyways here's the story oops--
~~~~~~
I woke up at 8:43 am.
It was my first official night without the throbbing nightmare that usually occurred past midnight every night.
I still woke up a little earlier than I planned, but it was fine because I did technically have plans for today.
I yawned, stretching and slightly grinning at myself for actually sleeping nicely for once. I got out of bed, sneaking past Josh, who fell asleep next to me breathing lightly.
I quickly scribbled on a post-it note, writing, "be back soonish. -izabella", and grabbed the keys, walking out of the door.
I unlocked my car parked in Jenna's driveway and stepped inside, nervously breathing. "Just don't think about it too much..." I told myself.
"You've done this several times now... this time's a little different, but-" then I noticed a light turn on inside the house and quickly drove away.

I arrived back at her house around 11 am. It lasted a little longer than I had planned, but it was fine because it went so much better than I expected.
Walking back inside, I was, of course, stopped by Jenna and Josh immediately. "Where were you?!"
My eyes widened and I gulped, realizing I hadn't thought of an excuse for being gone.
"Um," I laughed nervously. "I was just driving around for a bit. Needed one of those roll-down-the-window-and-blast-music car ride."
Josh raised an eyebrow. "Bruh, I so would have joined you."
"Maybe later." I winked, making his expression alternate to excitement.
"Anyways..." I sighed, scratching my shoulder. "What have you guys been up to?"
"Well," Jenna began. "I've been trying to think about what to do today, I have no plans for once..."
"Me neither." Josh and I said, and we looked at each other and chuckled.
"I could use some food, to be honest..." I laughed.
"Me too." Josh rubbed his stomach. "Actually, Izabella, I was gonna ask..."
"Yeah?"
"Do you, maybe, wanna..." He bit his lip but looked nervous. "I don't know, do you think you'd wanna go on a date with me later..?"
My cheeks heated up and I nodded without any question. "Gladly, Josh."
He was blushing now, until we both realized Jenna was still in the room.
"Goals." She squealed and ran away.

"I don't know what to wear..." I groaned, staring at Jenna's guest closet filled with my black clothes.
"I may have something you could borrow?"
