Aaron’s phone vibrated once as the screen lit up to display a familiar yellow ghost icon at the top of his notification list.
The guy paused brushing his teeth, leaving the neon green toothbrush clasped between his jaws as he glanced down at the device to check the alert for importance. Usually, the boy would've just ignored any dumb Snapchats so early in the morning, especially considering the fact that cool mint toothpaste was overflowing from his mouth, blue bubbles dribbling from his lips and splattering down his chin, but there was always an exception, and Aaron’s happened to be when this particular name popped up.
“Snap from: Alexxx,” followed by a goofy selection of fire, heart eyes, and “water droplet” emojis appeared at the top of his screen, causing the boy to abandon his previous task of brushing his teeth and actually getting ready for the day in favor of unlocking his phone to view the message.
Aaron choked on his toothpaste.
