I couldn't stand how nervous my phone was making me, all day Wednesday. I was scared that Zeke would try to call. Just looking at it made my anxiety at an all-time high. I put my phone in my locker to keep it away and calm myself. It only helped a little. I still had to see Noah and the twins throughout the day, wondering how Zeke liked his present. It seemed like a funny idea at first, but now I had a few regrets. What if he got mad? Zeke took school very seriously. 

At the end of the school day, it was time for me to take my cellphone back out of the locker. 

"Stop being a baby." Noah elbowed me as we headed down to the fields. "I've already shown you my phone. Zeke hasn't messaged us at all." Just as he said that, his phone started to ring. 

ZEKE

Noah cleared his throat and answered, putting him on speaker. He started singing 'happy birthday' and we could hear Zeke's light laughter. It eased a lot of my nerves knowing he wasn't mad mad.
