I sat there in awe that someone was interested in me. For once, someone noticed me. I didn't know who SexyLexy was or if he or she was a pedophile. I took off my glasses so I could show them my eyes better, at least that's what people used to say. I could barely see Lucas with the camera after I took them off, but at least I looked better. I straightened my hair for the first time and it seemed to have looked ten times better than it used to.

Skunk hair was a good idea. I put on a purple v-neck with black stripes and black skinny jeans. Lucas took one picture and sent it on its way to SexyLexy. I asked him or her of a picture of them, because it was only fair. I am used to relationships being based off of looks, that's why I've never been in one.

After I sent my picture I sat in front of the screen nervously because I always knew that one look at me and people weren't interested. But sure enough, twenty minutes later, I got an email from none other than SexyLexy. I opened the email, hoping it was a guy, or I would have wasted my time. I also hoped that the email wasn't just him saying that he wasn't interested.

I looked through his profile and we liked the same things and we were the same age, so it said.

Dear JackBonerkat

I find you really attractive, and I hope that you don't find me totally disgusting. I'm used to it being said to my face by my own parents, but that was a bit more than you should already know about me, seeing as we haven't met. But I attached a picture of myself to this email, respond if you want to meet me, if you're not interested I understand.

-SexyLexy

I opened the attached picture and I froze. Alex Gaskarth. The Alex Gaskarth, the one I was in love with, the one that I admired from afar for three years. He was interested in me. Lucas gave me a confused look from across the room because of the sudden cheshire grin on my face.
"Alex." was all I had to say before he understood my happiness.

I went back to playing video games and tried to act like nothing happened. I wanted to play it cool and not be too desperate. I waited to reply to him, but I just couldn't. I jumped to my computer and quickly typed out a response.

Dear SexyLexy,

You are gorgeous, I hope that I wasn't gross to you. Everyone at my school thinks so, but that's too much information that you should know, because we haven't met. I'm going to trust you, I go to Dulaney High School and I hope that you won't hunt me down and kill me. :)

I would love to take you out sometime though.

-JackBonerKat

I hit send after re-reading my email several times. I had to make sure it was worded right and cool, but still had a touch of Jack in it.

The doorbell rang and Lucas ran out the door shouting his goodbye's. Something tells me that he won't be going to someone's house anytime soon. He stayed near the window to breathe in fresh air and he didn't eat anything. The little bitch was afraid of everything. He hasn't even kissed Renee yet because he's afraid of germs. Renee seemed a little annoyed at that one too.

I didn't sleep at all the whole night, I just waited by the computer for him to respond. He obviously went to bed because I didn't anything back. I just tell myself that so I don't freak out.

I woke up with my head on the keyboard and when I looked at the screen there was an ongoing line of q's. I realized that I had one unread message and I jumped to open it. Damn if this was an actual letter I would have had multiple paper cuts over the excitement of opening it.

Dear JackBonerkat,

I'm not gonna kill you I promise, I actually go to Dulaney High School too, I wonder how I haven't seen you around. You're a gorgeous human being and I would love to meet you. How about today, after school behind the big oak tree?

-Alex

He signed with his real name, no more usernames. This is getting even more real by the second. I was absolutely shocked when he actually found me gorgeous. I was going to meet him today. I looked over at my clock and realized that I might not even make it to school on time. Fuck.

I ran down the stairs and into my bathroom. I brushed my teeth and straightened my hair at the same time. I forced myself to put my contacts in, which I hated. I wanted to actually see Alex but I didn't want to wear my chunky glasses. I ran upstairs to get dressed and then I ran out the door.

I was sitting in last period and there was about two minutes left of class and I felt my palms starting to sweat. I was so nervous to meet Alex. It wasn't like he was famous or anything, he was just Alex. My phone buzzed and I picked it up, hoping it was an email from Alex, but my heart sank when it was from my mother.

Jack, get your lanky ass home NOW. You are good for nothing, I fucking swear. I need you home right now, but that won't be a problem, right!?
