Incoming Call: Blake

"Hello?" Destiny answered the phone.

"Hey. Uhm. Do you know what page the math homework is on? I lost the paper." Blake asked, nervously.

"Yeah. It's on page 123. It's not like you to lose it." Destiny pointed out.

"I know. I feel so irresponsible." He said shyly.

"I bet. Are you alright? You sound kinda weird." She asked.

"Uhm, yeah. I'm fine." He lied.

"Are you sure? Is that all you called for?"

"Yeah. So thanks. I'll see you tomorrow morning."

"Alright. Bye."

"Bye." They hung up. He definitely sounded like there was more to that call than wanting a math assignment, but she didn't want to push it.

"Destiny! Could you come down here, please?" Her mom called from the bottom of the stairs. She ran down quickly.

"Yeah?" She asked. Her mom and her dad were standing there, looking overly excited.

"We have something for you." Her dad answered. "Follow us." They led her down the hall to the familiar garage.

"What's going on?" Destiny asked, confused. Their two car garage had it's usual two cars in it, only one was a different car. Her dad owned a small truck and her mom owned a BMW. There were two cars now, no truck. She looked up at her parents with a questioning look.

"Go look at it." Her mom nudged. She moved forward, examining the black Honda civic.

"It's nice." She smiled. "I like it."

"That's good." Her dad replied.

"Why'd you trade in your truck?" She asked, assuming he had.

"I didn't." He answered. She looked up confused.

"This is your car." He smiled. Her mouth dropped.

"Are you serious?" She asked.

"Yup. We thought it was time you have your own car." He answered.

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" She gave both of her parents a hug. She couldn't wait to start driving it, but she'd wait another day. Blake was supposed to pick her up in the morning, and she wanted to ride with him at least once before taking her own car.

"We'll pay for gas and insurance as long as you keep trying your hardest in school. We know what you can do, so if any of your grades drop below a C&, it gets taken away. We understand how hard classes can get at times, which is why we are setting it lower than normal. We still expect you to try for at least all A's and B's, but so long as you're trying, you don't have to pay for anything." Her dad explained. She hugged him again.

"I won't let you down." She smiled and ran up to her room. As soon as she was there, she began texting her friends, letting them know she had her own car.

The next morning, Blake arrived right when he said he would. She climbed in the car, eager to tell him about her car.

"What's with the smile? We're going to school, remember? Nothing to be happy about there." He joked.

"I finally got a car!" She said, happily.

"Awesome. What kind?" He asked.

"A Honda civic. Like yours. But mine is black." She explained.

"Sweet. I'll have to bum rides from you once you can drive me." He gave her a cheesy grin.

"Oh sure. Of course." She rolled her eyes. The day passed quickly and Blake took her home.

"So I suppose you'll be driving yourself now?" He asked, looking a little bummed.

"Yeah." She answered.

"Well that's a load off my chest. Now I don't have to go so far out of my way to get you anymore." He joked. She pretended to pout.

"Sorry I'm such an inconvenience." She closed the door. He rolled down the window, laughing at her attempt to pretend to be upset.

"You know I'm kidding." He said, still laughing at her.

"I know." She smiled. "I'll see you tomorrow."

"As long as you don't crash." He joked.

"Ugh. You're such a jerk!" She whined.

"I know. But I'm your best friend. You gotta love me." He smiled.

"True." She sighed. "Bye." He waved and drove away. She ran upstairs, trying the new multi-tasking thing. The mystery boy wasn't online yet, but he signed on less than ten minutes after she did.

Just Me: Are you ready to tell me who you are yet?

Random And Impulsive: Are you ready to tell me?

Just Me: As long as you are. :)

Random And Impulsive: I'm beginning to like you. I don't think I want to tell you who I am.

Just Me: I'm tired of waiting. Tell me?

Random And Impulsive: Figure it out.

Just Me: How?

Random And Impulsive: Guess.

Just Me: There's a thousand boys at our school. I'll never get it.

Random And Impulsive: True.

Just Me: Do you drive your own car?

Random And Impulsive: Yeah.

Just Me: That helps narrow it down.

Random And Impulsive: Yeah. I know. Do you?

Just Me: Not yet.

Random And Impulsive: Not yet?

Just Me: Exactly.

Random And Impulsive: You know.. You sound a lot like my best friend.

Just Me: Funny, you sound a lot like mine.

Random And Impulsive: Weird.

Just Me: But there's no way. I mean, I'm pretty sure my friend would tell me.

Random And Impulsive: Yeah. Me too.

Just Me: This is so frustrating. Can we just tell each other?

Random And Impulsive: What if one back's out?

Just Me: I won't.

Random And Impulsive: I don't know that. What if we meet? Tomorrow.. at the end of lunch. At the back entrance of the E building.

Just Me: I guess. How will we know who each other is?

Random And Impulsive: It's always empty back there. Especially at lunch.

Just Me: Alright. It'll be weird. But it works.

Random And Impulsive: So any gossip on Destiny liking Blake?

Just Me: Why are you interested? And yeah. I've heard she's beginning to really, really like him. But she's extremely shy and would never do anything about it on her own.

Random And Impulsive: I see. And I'm just curious cause I heard today that Blake likes her a lot. And that he's disappointed she got her own car. Their alone time will be non existent now.

Just Me: How'd you hear that?

Random And Impulsive: I heard him talking to himself. It was a bit odd. Hey, aren't you going to start driving yourself, too?

Just Me: Well yeah. Don't we all, eventually? I gotta go. I guess I'll see you tomorrow? Gosh, that's weird.

Random And Impulsive: Yeah. I look forward to meeting you. :)

She signed off, scared. Did he know who she was? Was he figuring it out? She had given away too much. And who was he? He sounded so much like Blake, but that was impossible. Blake was happy about her getting her own car. She thought about it all night, and the next morning she was nervous and scared about meeting the mystery boy.

"Are you okay?" Blake asked during first period.

"Yeah." She was shaking a little.

"Driving to school freak you out that much? It's not that scary in this town." He joked.

"You know, first time and stuff." She lied. "Why do you keep biting your nails?" She asked.

"Nervous habit." He answered.

"Why are you nervous?" She pushed further.

"The test in pre-cal tomorrow." He lied. She nodded, understanding. At lunch, she could barely eat a thing. Blake seemed to barely touch his food, too.

"Still nervous?" She asked. When she was nervous, she couldn't eat. She wondered if it was the same with him.

"Yeah. I can't eat when I'm nervous." He answered.

"I know what you mean. It's the same with me." She told him.

"Are you nervous about the test, too?" He asked. She nodded, lying. They threw away their food early and proceeded to walk around the school.

"Hey Destiny?" He asked, as they were walking.

"Yeah?" She looked up.

"There's this rumor I've heard.. And I'm not sure it's true, but.." He stopped.

"But what?" She asked.

"Never mind. It's probably not true. I'm gonna go to the bathroom and stop by the Latin room, I think I left my notebook in there.." He said, and turned and walked away. She stood there, confused. What was he going to ask about? He was out of her sight in no time. She paced the outside hallway for a few minutes and then noticed the time. He had been gone for fifteen minutes. She shrugged, figuring he was still looking for his binder. Her stomach was twisting in knots and she ran for the bathroom. She made it just in time, as what little food she had ate made it's way back up. She wiped off her mouth and rinsed it with the water in the sink before heading to the back of the E building. She walked slowly, still scared. She turned the last corner to see a boy standing there, back turned. Her heart stopped.


Tell me who you think it is. :D
