Danielle

Ky chuckles breaking the silence. "Are you done?" he asked.

His voice is totally different from what I expected. He had a mellow voice. I was expecting a deep voice.

Once again there is silence.

My throat starts to get dry and I can't speak.

"Danni?" Ky asked trying to figure out if I was still there.

I don't reply, I cant relpy! I try to speak but the words can't make their way out of my mouth.

I don't know why I'm so nervous. It's only Ky I'm talking to.

I'm acting like high school Danielle, she gets nervous when she talks to boys.

But, I only got nervous around boys she liked.

I know for a fact that I do not like Ky. He is just a friend.

"Danielle? Are you still there?"

I try to speak again. Nothing comes out.

I hang up the phone.

A few minutes later I get a message from Ky.

Bornballer🏀: Are you okay?

Danniduhh💛💜: mhm

Bornballer🏀: why didnt you talk?

Bornballer🏀: did you get nervous? 😏

Danniduhh💛💜: no.

Bornballer🏀: awe, its okay, i have that affect on people! 😜

"Aha, he thinks he's so cute!" I say to myself.

I roll my eyes, "Oh, now I can talk!" 

Danniduhh💛💜: no ugly. My phone was trippin. I was talkin the whole time.

Danniduhh💛💜: then the call dropped...Idiot 😕

Bornballer🏀: mhm yeah sure okay. Call me back then.

Danniduhh💛💜: k ugly

I don't call him. Instead I text him.

Danniduhh💛💜: why do we needa talk? Why not just text?

Bornballer🏀: i wanna hear your voice, Shorty.

Danniduhh💛💜:fine

I pick up my phone and I dial his phone number.

Here we go again.

Ky answers on the first ring.

"Danni?" he says once he answered.

"H-hey." I say studdering.

I guess my studdering made him laugh.

"You are nervous!" he laughs.

"I'm not nervous!"

"You seem so confident when we are texting. Your sassy through the phone screen but as soon as we talk on the phone your all nervous. That's cute Shorty." Ky states.

"I told you not to call me that Ugly." I replied.

"Fine, I can call you Monkey. Because some monkeys are shy. Its your call." he chuckled.

"I like Shorty better," I giggled softly.

At that moment I know that I do not like Ky like that. He is my best friend. How could I like my best friend? I can not like my best friend. Can I? No, I can't. I do not like my best friend!
