I was working on my Spanish homework when my phone's text tone went off. I glanced over at it and saw it was text from a new number. I furrowed my brows, grabbing my phone, and opened the message.

(206)508-2591: Hey Kelsey, it's Harry.

"Ohhh," I voiced, adding his contact to my phone: "Okay cool."

Me: Oh hey! I'm glad you texted 😄

Harry🇬🇧: Haha, of course.
Harry🇬🇧: Think of any good places to meet up at?

"Shit," I said, face palming. "I completely forgot to do that."

Me: Haha, no actually. I was a little preoccupied today & I forgot to think of a place.
Me: But, I think the library in town could work. It's spacious, lots of floors, even a cafe on the 2nd floor.

I got up from my desk and sat criss-crossed on my bed, looking at phone.

Harry🇬🇧: Oh, well, that sounds perfect.
Harry🇬🇧: And we agreed on Thursday, correct? Do you want to meet there immediately after school?

"Hmm," I thought. I shrugged, typing my answer.

Me: Sure. We can meet Thursday at 3:20? Tamara & I are grabbing smoothies after school, so I'll be there right after that lol

Harry🇬🇧: Haha, mind grabbing me one as well? Been a while since I've had a smoothie, actually.

Me: 😂 yeah, I think we can make it happen.
Me: What kind of friend would I be to deprive another of his smoothie? 🤔

Harry 🇬🇧: A terrible one lol

Me: Exactly! & I'm no terrible friend, sir 💯👯‍♀️

Harry🇬🇧: Lol, no, I don't think are you
Harry🇬🇧: Guess I'll see you in class tomorrow, then
Harry🇬🇧: And again Thursday haha

"Ooh," I said at the third text. "A triple text?" I quirked a brow. "What you got going on here, Mrs. Styles?"

Me: A triple text? Rare from the male species lmao

Harry🇬🇧: Really? I didn't really notice

I rolled my eyes. Didn't really notice, my ass, Styles, I thought.

Me: Mhmm, yeah. For sure, Harry. For sure lol
Me: Hey, I have Spanish hw to finish, but I'll see you tmrw. "And again Thursday haha"

Harry🇬🇧: Haha, alright then, Kelsey. Goodnight

Me: Night 🌙

I sighed, putting my phone down. I looked over at my desk and the homework laying on top of it. My face scrunched in distaste.

I groaned, falling back on my bed. "I don't wanna!"

I grabbed my phone and looked at the time. "Nine twenty-seven? Hmm, I'm gonna take a nap," I said going to the timer application. I set it for thirty minutes.

I yawned, getting under my covers. "Just a lil nap."

I woke up the next morning to a blaring alarm. I groaned rolling over and grabbing my phone. I checked the time as I turned my alarm off.

My eyes widened. "Seven o'clock?"

I tossed my blankets off and stretched. "Fuck, I didn't finish my Spanish homework," I groaned, rubbing my eye.
