WHO: Elias and Gabriella
WHEN: Wednesday, January 26th, Evening-ish
WHERE: Gabriella's doorstep
WHAT: He likes her toes.
She had liked the bird. He had seen it with his very own eyes. She had liked it. And he had sent it. So in a way, she liked him already. Sort of. Elias looked up. Then down. Then side to side. The lyrics to a Hannah Montana song flicked through his head and he pushed them out.
What, nervous? Him? No.
Ohmygod-I'm-so-nervous.
He straightened out the tie on his old blue tux from high school prom and breathed out. He pressed a hand onto the doorbell and pushed it once. Twice. Okay maybe he jabbed it a few more times than that.
He breathed in. He puffed his chest out. This was his chance to shine.
It was his time to get the girl.
