Kayden's POV

Ding

I'm sitting at my usual lunch table with Kateline. Nothing special. Until my textone goes off, I glance over at it and see it's from Connor.

I quickly grabbed it to avoid Katelina seeing, but to no avail.

She snickers loudly, "Ooh Kayden, got yourself a boyfriend?" She asks mockingly, I only lightly shove her and reply, "Your so childish..." as I roll my eyes.

As she continues to snicker, I look at my phone again to read it.

Connor: Sorry I didn't get to talk to you this morning

Kayden: Its fine, no need to apologize

Connor: No its not, i mean it's not totally my fault, but I still need to apologize for Opal

Kayden: No seriously it's fine

Connor: Well ok, but this morning i wad going to ask if you wanted to come over after school to hang out?

Kayden: Sounds great

Connor: K, meet me at the school enterance after school

Kayden: K

I put my phone down and look up to see Katelina smirking.

"Got yourself a date?"

I roll my eyes in response and get up to throw my trash away.

Connor's POV

I was pretty excited to hang out with Kayden today, he seemed like a pretty down to earth guy that I'd get along with.

As said, I was waiting at the school enterance when Kayden walked up to me with a old looking backpack slung over his shoulder.

Old phone. Old backpack.

Not that I cared, some people weren't as privileged as others, but it still made me wonder.

Besides that, he looked really nice today, I mean like no homo bro, but dang.

*rolls eyes* Connor, your the definition of cringe right now.

"Hey." Kayden says as he approches me, "Hey." I reply, then follow up with, "Sorry about Opal again, she been a b!tch recently, well more so then usual."

Kayden chuckles and shakes his head, "Honestly, it's fine."

"Well I mean, we were talking, and she just-"

"Connor. It's. Fine. Drop it."

I grinned and started walking down the steps into the parking lot with him following close behind. "Okay, okay. Fine."

I walked up to my silver Toyota and unlock it before opening the passenger door. I smirked and looked up at Kayden. "After you." I said poshly, earning a small laugh from Kayden.

"Ha. Ha." He replies dryly, but climbed into the car.

I walk around and get in on the driver side, ignoring the ding of notification coming from my phone which wad probably a text from Opal wondering why I didn't come to her locker after school.
