"Any good ones?" she asked, a nervous laugh errupting from her voice. A rush of wind blew her hair back neatly underneath her beanie and leaves mingled benath her feet.
"Any good ones?" she asked, a nervous laugh errupting from her voice. A rush of wind blew her hair back neatly underneath her beanie and leaves mingled benath her feet.
"Yeah, check it out." Evelyn showed her the camera. The girl looked focused and beautiful in her beanie, with her pencil in her hand. The wind blew her hair in some of the shots. "I mean I still have to edit them, but they look really good so far."
Aaliyah blushed lightly, "Well, you seem like a good photographer" she muttered, watching as she flipped through the pictures
"I try," Evelyn said with a grin. She almost winked but she didn't feel bold enough. She looked down at her watch. 'Oh shoot,' she thought. She pulled her camera back towards her and started going through the pictures herself, waiting for the girl to go back to her drawing.
Aaliyah soon returned her focus back to her sketch, the scenery starting to take form
Evelyn pulled her bag on her lap, looking for something. She slowly placed a small piece of paper on the bench, put her camera in her bag and stood up. "Thanks for letting me photograph you," she said, smiling.
(Btw, the paper is her number, "Evelyn", and a heart)
"No problem" she replied picking up the paper
Evelyn walked away to her class that started in seven minutes. She stood at a crosswalk and looked down at her phone. She knew it was silly to expect a text so soon. Evelyn put her phone away and crossed the street. She sat through her color theory class, daydreaming about the girl in the park.
She typed the number into her phone and texted about 10 minutes later, «Hey» she texted, pressing send
The second her class was over Evelyn checked her phone. She smiled, looking at the text. «Hi» «Sorry I was in a class» she texted quickly.
« It's alright.» she replied, sending it and not knowing what else to say
«so i never caught your name», Evelyn texted.
«Aaliyah, you?» she asked, rolling over in her bed.
(She got home while evelyn was in class)
«evelyn» «nice to meet you aaliyah» she texted back. She stood in the doorway of the building, watching her phone and smiling. She walked out the door and started the walk to her photo editing class, desperate to edit the photos she took of Aaliyah.
«You have a pretty name» she texted back, glancing out her window
Evelyn glanced down at her phone and smiled. «thanks» she texted. «i like yours too. it's cool». She got to her class and sat down. Her teacher came over and Evelyn showed her the pictures. The teacher commented on them, then left her to her editing. «i'm in my editing class now» «my teacher likes the pictures i took of you»
«Your teacher must not be very judgemental» she replied, «You in collage or highschool?» she asked
«college» «you?» «see that's the thing. she usually is extremely judgemental, they were just good photos» «i guess she liked my model» «and frankly, so do i» Evelyn was about to send something else but stopped when she saw how many texts she had sent. She didn't want to keep blowing up Aaliyah's phone.
«Oh? Good thing I like my photographer. Nice to know the feeling is genuine» she replied, a smirk coming across her face
Evelyn stared at the screen, a big smile on her face. «oh yeah it definitely is» She tapped her thumbs against the sides of her phone case and bit her lip. She wanted to say something but she wasn't sure if it was too risky. She took a deep breath and quickly typed, «are you busy friday evening/afternoon?» and hit send. She was about to put her phone away but stopped to say «also i gotta go to class rn so i'll talk later».
«I've got no plans so yes I am free» she smirked, «And ok, ttyl»
«brilliant» «also i'm back» «if you couldn't tell» «can you meet me at the park on 3rd at 5:45/6?»
«Sure» she replied. getting dressed for outdoor weather once again
«great» she texted.
(time skip?)
(Sure!)
Aaliyah tugged at her beanie so it was over her ears as she walked through the entrance of the park on 3rd, 5:50 sharp. The multicoloured leaves mixed together in a miniscule tonardo on the smooth, cobblestone pavement. She slipped her phone out of her pocket and texted Evelyn «I'm here»
Evelyn ran down the street, looking down at her watch. At this rate, she wasn't sure if she would make it to the park at 6. She dodged some men in suits and a girl with her headphones in and ran towards the park, keeping one hand on her camera bag.
Aaliyah sat down on a big rock near the entrance, checking her watch
Evelyn found Aaliyah sitting on a rock at exactly 6:01. She ran up to her, then stopped, panting. "Hi. Sorry, I'm late." She looked down at her phone and saw Aaliyah had texted her. "Oh. You're here. Hey," she said, grinning. She was out of breath and her face was flushed.
"Hey" she hummed, smirking at how flushed she was, "Come sit" she said, patting on the rock next to her
