«~Mia's POV~»
As I was approaching my locker and wandering through the hallways I heard a voice that sounded like Jordi's I walked faster and saw that she was talking to Amelia ,Seeing her talk rudely to Amelia made me upset and reminded me of what she did to me when we were still friends, Jordi and I used to be close in 8th grade not until she embarrassed me at summer camp in front of everyone that was present ,from that day I didn't want anything to do with her because she was a pain in the ass I began to have serious trust issues until I met blossom she's the most jovial person I've ever met and we bonded well She stuck with me through thick and thin and has been very supportive.
At the beginning of my sophomore year when I was in Mrs ross's office because I broke the school rules and I was being scolded by her, that was the day I met Amelia She seemed like the type I would associate with She's got a really lovely nature that I admire and yesterday's cheer practice was so amazing I've never felt so exhilarated this term like I did, Amelia and I have been hanging out for quite some time now I guess that's what friends are for they cheer up your mood and are there when you need them the most
"Mia it won't take you the whole day to get ready the driver is waiting for you so be quick, I don't want you to be late for the Therapist appointment"
Am coming mum just a minute
"what took you so long young lady, have your breakfast before you go".
Sure thing, I'll do so, oh and mum remember I told you about Amelia my friend from school, I wanted to ask if she can come over and spend the night here.
"It's fine with me sweetheart just tell her to ask for permission from her parents, am glad you met a friend like her and you are smiling again it was rare to see you smile that often since last summer"
Yeah yeah, bye I have to get going see you later Amelia and I are going shopping after my therapy session ,we decided to spend the day together we made a list of things we would like to buy, I can't wait! Let me text to remind her In case she forgot
hottie: hey Amelia just wanted to remind you about the shopping we have to do later today in case you forgot
She replies instantly
Hottie: I wouldn't miss it for anything
An hour later I get back home and get ready I decided to wear my boyfriend's jeans and my pink bralette with my white Nike shoes and matched them with a small little bag, I ask my brother to take a photo of me so that I can post it on my socials.

Today's a sunny day and the perfect day to go shopping ,things have been going out great for me here in Denver I never thought mia and I would be close, I was supposed to meet Xavier today for the project but I told him I'll be meeting him after class on Monday, because mia and I are going shopping! She even texted to remind me about it.
Good morning dad I utter with a smile plastered on my face.
"Good morning Amelia how are you, and what's the reason for your smile, I hope it's not a boy "
Wow, relax dad, no it's not a boy and I'm alright I just wanted to let you know that am going shopping with mia today
"Okay sweetie just be back home before 8:30 make sure you don't talk to any boy's" .my dad warns me sternly
Okay dad am going to get ready , i say in a lame tone ,Am pacing around my room because I can't decide what to wear between the two outfits i prearranged ,I just decide to go with the army green cargo pant and white bralette top and Jordan's ava got me on my birthday last year
________♧_________
Mia and I are vacillating through the mall we met here about an hour ago we got our hair and nails done and bought really cute friendship bracelets and matching outfits, mia decided to take a photo of me and posted it on her Instagram account .
"Lia where do you think we should get lunch Mcdonald's or juniors?"
mmmm I think let's go to junior's it's not that crowed there and I like the burgers they serve .
We reach junior's and mia pokes my shoulder
"Are you seeing what am seeing "
I look at where Mia set her gaze and spot Holden, Xavier and Caden , what an interesting day ,we order our grub and seat at the table opposite theirs .
"Hey girls mind if we join you" Caden asks As the trio joins us.
"We don't mind at all" Mia muses and smiles like a clumsy person.
We all exchange our greetings and Caden sits next to mia Holden sits on my left side and Xavier sits on my right side.
What could be better than two hot guys sitting besides you!
"So Amelia you cancelled our geography project for a shopping spree? Xavier asks
All the boys bursts out in laughter
"Yes Xavier shopping is like a drug for me I can't quit it for anyone or anything and what brings you guys here"
"Well, we came here to buy Holden's girlfriend their anniversary gift she's been screaming in his face because he forgot today's their anniversary and we decided to stop by junior's to get some. milkshakes " says caden.
You mean Jordi?. I ask
"Yes Jordi you guy's are on the same cheerleading team right "
Yes we are, she's the captain, story of my life I mutter under my breath.
"Holden how can you forget you and your bossy girlfriend's anniversary" mia utters
"It just didn't cross my mind ". Holden says bluntly .
That's cold, How can you Forget your Anniversary I murmur
Holden just stares at me and keeps quiet, it's not like I expected him to say anything.
The boys start talking about their big game coming in two weeks and I just sip on my milkshake
''What are you guy's doing this Friday?", Xavier asks
Depends with what you're about to say next ,I tell him
"I am inviting you to the party am hosting this Friday it would mean a lot to me if you guys showed up, especially you amelia " utters Xavier.
"Sure we are going to be there " Mia says without even asking for my consent
Xavier's phone rings he excuses himself As he picks it up.
" I'm sorry guy's I have to go pick up my sister from her dance class lessons I'll see you guy's on Monday " mutters Xavier
"Alright bro " says caden.
Everyone stays silent after Xavier's gone ,caden breaks the silence and asks mia if he can show her the comic book store since mia mentioned she likes comic books .
Wait mia you can't leave me alone here with Holden I whisper in her ear.
"You'll be fine lia trust me" she says and leaves with caden
And there she goes, now am stuck with Holden I don't even know how to start a conversation
''Umm so Amelia what do you do for fun?"
My heart's racing faster at this moment I think I forgot what I like doing.
Okay I like singing, reading, writing and painting .
"So you can paint?" He asks
Yes I used to paint with my sister and mum but I No longer have the zeal to do so.
"That's interesting, Never thought you could, you don't seem like the type to do so"
That's more like slur, don't be too judgemental I say more like a whisper.
He stays silent for while like he was thinking about something, his blue eyes are brighter than Xavier's and his looks Amiable when his serious.
"Would you like to see the art gallery that just recently opened downtown " Holden utters.
Never in my life have I ever imagined I would be talking to Holden, and here he is asking to go see the art gallery With me I think my heart did a somersault.Yes I would love to, that would be.. just as I was about to finish my sentence I'm cut off by my buzzing phone it's a message from dad.
Dad: hey sweetie I'll be working night shift and ava is sleeping over at Stacey's make sure you get home early and lock the doors
Guess I'll be spending the night alone again, Stacey is ava's best friend.
Am sorry Holden something came up and I have to get going because my dads working in night shift and my sister is spending the night at her friends
"That's alright, let me take you home, that's if you don't mind" Holden says with a genuine smile.
He's got the perfect jawline I've ever seen and the cutest smile. I think am getting butterflies just by looking at him I would have gone to the art gallery if it wasn't for my dad .
No, I certainly don't mind, we reach the car park and holden's car is the most elegant car I've ever seen just by the look of it am sure those Seats are comfortable, the doors automatically open by themselves it sure looks expensive we both get in and stay quiet for a while.
Can you please turn on the radio ,I ask him, Holden turns on the radio and minefields by john legend & fauozia starts playing
I like this song I say and turn up the volume.
We both start singing to the lyrics on top of our voices
Now this might be a mistake
That I'm calling you this late
But these dreams I have of you ain't real enough
Started bringing up the past
How the things you love don't last
Even though this isn't fair for both of us
Ooh-ooh, maybe I'm just a fool
I still belong with you
Anywhere you, you are
Ooh-ooh, these minefields that I walkthrough
Ooh-ooh, what I risk to be close to you
Ooh-ooh, these minefields keeping me from you
Ooh-ooh, what I risk to be close to you
at this point, I don't care if my voice sounds bad at all.
Holden's voice is nice, it sounds better than the video he posted singing on his sister's birthday last year.
Yes I know am a stalker but what can a girl go if she has a crush on prince charming.
After the song's done we both let out chuckles, I'm finally enjoying holden's company fof the first time since I met him.
After 15 minutes he pulls up at my place with the address I sent him some minutes ago
Thanks for the ride and see you around.
"Sure it was a pleasure ,I enjoyed your ..." holden's being cut off by his phone ringing he just stares at the screen and ignores it
He drives away after we said goodbyes to each other.
I get into the house make my way to my room and lay on my bed just thinking of how today has been, I can't wait to tell Tori all about it.
