Rick came and I was able to leave, I wasn’t entirely sure why I agreed to go out with this guy I didn’t even know him. But here I was walking down the dark street with him at midnight…that so seemed safe.
“So what instrument do you play in your band?” I asked breaking the silence.
“Guitar,” Jack said looking at me. “Do you play anything?” he then asked.
“I can play guitar, bass and piano but there all just hobbies,” I told him. “What I really want to play is drums…but whenever I try I fail terribly.” I admitted to him recalling the times that Rian would get me sitting at his drum kit attempting to play music but all that came out was destructive noise.
“That’s quite a collection you have,” Jack said with a quite chuckle.
“I have a thing for music,” I shrugged.
“What a coincidence so do I,” Jack said making me blush. We ended up going to a 24-hour diner for a few hours and at about 3 we decided we better call it a night.
“Can I drive you home?” he asked casually.
“Sure,” I said pointing him to which directions he should turn.
“Can I see you again?” Jack asked I nodded grabbing out a pen and writing down my number.
“It was nice to meet you,” I said blushing yet again as I was about o exit the car but before I new it Jacks lips met mine and it was a great kiss but when I pulled away all I could think about was Rian.
“I’ll give you a call, bye Avery.” Jack said as he pulled away from the curb.
“Bye Jack.” I called after him. I walked into the dark apartment with to many thoughts dancing around in my brain. Why was it the whole night all I could think about was Rian, Jack was a great guy but Rian…he was something else. He was single this was my chance but I just couldn’t bring myself to do it he just got out of a relationship the timing wasn’t right. The timing was never right, and that always made me think that it wasn’t meant to be because we never had a chance. But it was Rian he would never fall in love with me, I was just one of the guys to him I would always be…fuck! This was just too much to all take in. Maybe I would go out with Jack again…just forget about Rian (I mean wanting a more then friends relationship with him) because I don’t know what I would do without him in my life because he had been in it for so long. The question was could I ever loose these feelings? Because they felt right even though they were wrong.
