"Hey Sky." Nate smiles and takes a seat across me. I haven't seen him for a while.
"Where have you been Nate?"
"Family stuff." He shrugged.
"So, I was wondering," he paused.
"What?" I ask curiously.
"Would you like to... erm.. maybe wanted to get dinner tonight?"
"You mean a date?"I ask and he simply nods.
"Sure, I'd love to." I smile. A date would be awesome. Just something to get my mind off the unknown texter. I can't believe it's already been nine days. It felt like an eternity since I talked to him last. I wonder if he misses me? I figured he would've text by now so I guess he doesn't since my stupid ass wanted space so much.
"Great, I'll pick you up at six," he said and he walks towards the counter to grab lunch.
Suddenly Hayley stormed into the seat next to me making me jumped a little.
"Whoa slow ya' butt down, what happen?" I ask and she groaned in frustration.
"I can't believe all the tickets had been sold out."
"What ticket?"
"5sos ticket. That's the only chance I had to meet my long lost boyfriend Calum Hood"
I almost forgot about that. My mind suddenly trails to the ticket that the unknown texter gave me a month ago. It was two. Oh my god did he really gave me the tickets?
"I have extra if you want it" her eyes were about to pop out from its socket and she grabs me into a tight hug.
"Oh my God, really Sky?! You didn't even tell me that you brought two tickets to the concert," she said
"I forgot. It's supposed to be a surprise" I lied. I don't want to tell her the truth since I don't know who gave me.
"Sky I swear you're the best."
Me: DanNNYY
Me: Guess what!
Me: HURRY!!
Me: DANNN ANSWER ME PLEASE
Me: DAN IT'S EMERGENCY! REGARDING LIFE AND DEATH
Dan: slow down you hormones woman
Dan: Are you telling me you finally go on a date with Alex?
Me: No. But he's here in any minute
Dan: what the hell, you?
Dan: Finally?
Dan: date?
Dan: do boys finally know you exist?
Me: don't be rude, Nate asked me out for dinner
Dan: he should do eyes check up more often
Dan: I'm sure his glasses aren't functioning at all
Me: boys just like feeding me
Dan: I really love you Sky, please bring me food
Me: no
Dan: fine I really hate you.
Me: that wasn't what I just read
Dan: I TAKE IT BACK
Dan: and I'm telling him you only agreed because of food
Me: he's here bye.
I walked downstairs as soon as I heard a knock on the door. I leave a sticky note on the table to inform my parents before leaving.
"Hi," I smile.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes," I close the door behind me and we walk to his car.
[ALEX]
I can't believe Taylor order the most expensive food on the menu. This girl is trying to kill me.
But I can't wait for her to find out that she didn't like whatever she ordered. I'm pretty sure she'll have a hissy fit and then blame me for it, even though I've warned her.
She'll also be complaining that she eats a lot of food and how she's so fat even when she's not.
Sky wouldn't even consider herself fat. She loves food and wouldn't hesitate to pick anything with fries. She always hates salad or being vegetarian.
My eyes suddenly caught a girl with some kid entering the restaurant and took a seat next to us. Sky? Seriously? Does Sky has to be here? I'm trying to move on here.
Wait, did she dressed up for that kid? I thought she hates wearing a dress. She seems happy and no problem with moving on there. God, I am being such a hypocrite. I am moving on too and if she knew I was the one texting her, she'd be saying the same thing to me. I'm just jealous, because I'm never going to be Kyle. I'm never going to be the one who take her out dinner and kisses her at the end. Period.
I'm always going to be some kid behind a phone. I'm always going to be the hated Alex.
"Great, little Miss Stalker is here," Taylor huffs and take a sip of her diet coke.
"I've blocked her by the way." I sigh, it's a lie of course, I would've never blocked Sky. "She's not going to bother me anymore."
"I love you babe," she grabs my hand.
"Yeah, you too."
[SKY]
Me: Alex's here
Me: with Taylor
Me: stab me rn
Me: pls
Me: I beg you to shot me with a sniper
Me: so I can be spared
Me: of my misery
Me: of having to sit here and be bothered by their royal asses
Dan: no
Dan: good luck suffering women
Dan: ask Alex to send me nudes I want to see him
Me: I'm not doing that
Me: you're so weird,
Me: go away
Dan: you're the one texting me on your date
Dan: poor Nate
Dan: Geez, hoes these days
Me: Stahp
Me: he's in the bathroom btw
Me: oh he's coming bye

"Thanks for the dinner Nate, it was lovely" I smile and pick my bag up off the ground and put it over my shoulder.
"Sky Rose," I look at my left and Alex smiles. I raise my eyebrow as he comes up to Nate and I.
"Alex, I thought you said to ignore those nerds" Taylor whines sarcastically.
Nerds? Alex 's throwing insults. I know it.
"So that means I'm smart enough to see somebody's just a side hoe." I said innocently. I see Alex's lips form a smile before Taylor drags him towards the door after giving me a harsh look.
"She's not very friendly." Nate said,
"Nope. But that's quite entertaining though."
This is why I never exactly trust Alex. He's always there whenever something bad happens between me and his friends. Kyle was Alex friend and he's messing me around. Taylor is Alex's girlfriend and she's constantly giving me shit.
And he never did anything to make them stop like he's getting along with them calling me names.
Plus all the stupid comments from his other friends all over the year. It drives me insane. I hate him and his chatty clique to no ends. I can't wait for May, because I can't wait to get rid of them.
Me: Can you believe
Me: Taylor's being a bitch again?
Me: she pissed me off to death
Me: she's calling me and Nate nerds
Me: And I was like "I'm just smart enough to see when somebody is a side hoe"
Me: Alex smiled at that HAHA
Me: Take that Taylor
Dan: wow
Dan: that's still a shitty comeback
Dan: but I'm proud of you
Dan: stop texting me when you're with Nate
Me: we're in the car and Nate keeps quiet
Me: I'm bored
Me: his music oh my god
Me: CRAPP
Me: So classic
Me: OMG
Me: HELP ME DAN
Me: I WANT TO LAUGH SO BAD
Me: DEAR GOD PLEASE
Me: HE'S LIKE
Me: DANCING IN HIS SEAT
Me: TO CLASSICAL MUSIC
Me: WTF AM I LOOKING AT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Me: DAN PLEASE SAVE MY POOR ASS
Me: MAKE IT STOP PLS
Dan: I hope you suffer bish
Dan: BYE
[ALEX]
After the moment the front door of Taylor's house closed and I sighed. That date was unbelievingly bad. She keeps on complaining the whole time and the run-in with Sky was just awkward. But her comeback was so cute. She's always been really bad at comebacks and I tried to hide my amusement with what she said.
I just wish she'd text me. I refuse to text her first because she's the one who wanted space. Why is she being so stubborn about this? Why can't she just admit that she kind of, sort of like me too?
She can't tell me that those conversations didn't mean anything to her. I know it actually means something because I can see the way she smiles whenever we texted each other.
Or she really has moved on but it just makes no sense though. It's only been ten days, nobody moves on that fast. Or even maybe she's just using Nate as rebound. Or she just didn't like me as much as I thought.
I lean on the driver seat and pull my phone out of my jacket pocket.
Me: honestly Sky, I miss you and this is ridiculous. Idk why are you being so stubborn
Me: Please talk to me again
Me: it's driving me insane
Me: I can't move on
Me: I love you so much please
With another sigh, I shove my phone back in my jacket. Well, seems like she's really moving on now.
