"Hey..."

I look up from my lunch and see Ashley."I'm so sorry Ashley I promise not to screw up again, I just...it's that-"

"You don't have to apologize. I think I might've overreacted. I'm sorry."

I get up and hug her. I've never actually hugged her. We're best friends but we never showed much affections.

"Well..... I wanted to tell you that....never mind," She says doubtfully.

From Richard to Brooklyn (10:43pm): Hey! Did you get it?

From Brooklyn to Richard (10:44): get what?

What was I suppose to get? Or did he not mean it literal. What is he referring to?

To Brooklyn from Richard (10:45pm): I gave Ashley an invitation to my b-day party to give to you. It's this weekend.

What?! I'd been invited? To Richard's birthday party? And Ashley didn't tell me? I'm going to kill her.
To Brooklyn from Richard (10:46pm): Will you come?

I think about this for a second unsure of what I should say. But before I work things out I text:
To Richard from Brooklyn (10:47pm): sure! I'd love to.

From Richard to Brooklyn (10:48pm): Great! Can't wait to see ya! ;)

Another party to attend. Yes! Wait! What would I give him for a gift? This would be a tough one. What do boys like for a present?
