Estella's POV

God, I feel so depressed today. I, again, avoided Ethan. He tried talking to me but I somehow found a way to escape his presence (so far).

I grab my book bag and keys and left the house. I decided to do school work at the cafe. I don't feel inspired to do my work at home.

"Hi" The worker smiles. I look up and see a brown haired boy with the most perfect green eyes I have ever seen. And I thought no one can be more attractive than Australian boys.

"Hi" I smile back, "I'll have a large sweet tea" I say, taking out my cash.

"No" The boy stops me, "It's on the house" I give him a confused look, "Is that a good first impression for a pretty girl?" We both chuckle.

"Estella" I take my hand out for him to shake. He grabs it.

"Ian. Nice to meet you, Estella" he gives me a grin. He is so fucking cute... and hot.

"Thank you" I put my cash back in my bag and walk away.

"Nice accent by the way" he adds. I turn around and smile at him.

Once I got my drink, I sat down at an empty table and started doing my work for 30 minutes.

"sixteen minus two t equals fiv-"

"Excuse me" I hear a girl say. I look up and see a girl holding a piece of paper, "Ian wanted your number but was too shy to ask so I'm doing it for him" she looks at the counter and back at me.

"Um" I should do it. This whole time I wasn't even thinking about Ethan until now. Fuck it, "sure" I smile and she hands me the piece of paper. I wrote my number on it and hand it back to her.

"Thanks!" She smiles and walks away.

Text from *number*

unknown: Hey :))

I look at my phone in confusion.

estella heinz: who is this?

Unknown is typing...

unknown: Ian? Ian Miller.

Oooh

estella heinz: oh, hey!

ian miller: you busy tomorrow night?

estella heinz: nope

ian miller: good because I wanna ask you on a date?

I think for a moment. Is this a good idea? Of course it is. I need to let go of Ethan. Why the hell do I keep thinking of him whenever I make decisions.

estella heinz: for sure! Where?

ian miller: it's a surprise. Send me your address so I'll pick you up?

estella heinz: *address*

ian miller: Great
ian miller: See u tmrw :)

This dude uses too many smiley faces. But I'll give him a shot.

I look at the time — 7:20. Ian is going to pick me up in 10 minuets. I get up off my bed and walk into my closet to find an outfit.
