Waiting for the fog to roll out
But I found it in a rain cloud
It was smiling down[/i][/center]

The song was briefly interrupted as a notification rang out from his phone. He groaned, hoping it was not from Rachel. Much to his relief, it was James who had texted him. [color=firebrick]"Has it really been that long since you last came? Take route 34, fourth stop."[/color]

Nathan sighed as he put his phone back down and the song continued playing. James would probably be here in about fifteen minutes. Speaking of James, his birthday was coming up in less than a month. He had better figure out before then what to get for his best friend of forever. When they were younger, Nathan had given him CD's and random shirts that his mom helped him choose out. But now that James was turning 21, maybe the best present Nathan could give him was a wild night out. It'd be fun even though Nathan himself wouldn't be legally allowed to drink yet. Maybe they would go to a strip club like Nathan had always jokingly suggested. Well, he'll ask James himself to see how he wanted to spend his big day. Perhaps James would rather spend his birthday with his family. Nathan could respect that. Or maybe James would spend the day with Vanessa. Did Vanessa even know when James' birthday was? 

After about who knows how long he had spent daydreaming and five songs later, he figured that James would probably be here soon. He went to the bathroom and ruffled his already messy hair. He then washed his face one more time to help him feel more awake. He put his glasses back on and walked over to the 'living room'. Waiting for someone to come over was really boring and he hoped that James would be knocking on the door any second now.
