Day Fourteen

I couldn't believe it. Today was the last day of bonding and tomorrow would be the day of our championship game.

I was both excited and nervous. I've been waiting all season till this moment. And now that the moment is here, I couldn't be more excited.

We didn't have school today so I planned on sleeping in but, of course, that wasn't the case.

Because at 8 A.M. in the morning, my phone buzzed non stop because I got annoyed and picked up the phone.

"We have bonding today," Daniel informed me through the phone. "I'll pick you up in half an hour."

"That's not enough time for me to get ready!" I exclaimed frantically.

"Don't tell me you just got out of bed?" He asked, disbelief in his tone.

"I was planning on sleeping in today," I mumbled. "Why are you even up this early anyways?"

"Habit," he said simply. "Besides I go for morning runs. You should join me sometime."

"Ha like I'd wake up for that," I snorted.

"You'd wake up for me though," he said, a teasing tone in his voice.

"Yeah of course," I said, sarcastically. "Now I'm going to get ready now."

"Alright bye."

And that's how our relationship was like. We acted normal but we didn't have the normal feelings that we used to. We were a couple now but we didn't act like it.

That's how I liked it. I wasn't used to the mushy stuff and Daniel knew that.

After hopping out of the shower, I put on a loose white tank top with a black cardigan over it. I slid into a pair of leggings and paired it with some brown combat boots.

I ate a light breakfast and grabbed an apple from the bowl.

Bzz Bzz

I checked my phone to see I received a text message.

I'm here.

I put my phone and a pair of earbuds in the pocket of my cardigan and headed out the door. My parents were already at work. They practically worked nonstop.

I texted to let them know what I was doing and hopped into the passenger seat of Daniel's car.

"You look nice," he complimented with a smile.

"Thanks."

A moment of silence passed but I didn't mind. It was comfortable and it just gave me time to look at the scenery around us.

There were a bunch of buildings lined up next to each other and an endless amount of trees that scattered around the town.

"Where are we going anyways?" I asked once I realized that I still didn't know where we were going.

"To the carnival," he told me. "Everyone is already there. Ask them where we should meet them."

I nodded and took out my phone, sending a text message to Chrissy.

A couple minutes later my phone buzzed indicating a text. I check my phone and replied to her message.

"By the entrance," I told him.

He nodded, pulling into the parking lot of the carnival. He parked his car near the entrance.

I immediately spotted Chrissy waving her hand frantically in our direction. I threw her a smile and waved back.
