╔═══════════════╗Chapter Three
❝ Roberto's At 8 ❞╚═══════════════╝
Nico sat comfortably on her plush white couch sipping on a glass of red wine that was definitely way too expensive without a care in the world. Giggling lightly being wine drunk she looked over to an even drunker Cindy following their conversation.
"No fucking way! You need to burn that out of your mind permanently!" Nico stammered in between laughs talking about one of Cindys latest hook up.
Cindy looked at Nico with a huge grin trying to keep her composure, "I am being dead serious bitch! He ASKED ME to SLAP HIM! Like what the fuck was I supposed to do?"
Nico looked over at her with her mouth agape, "you say no what the fuck! Then you say now please kindly exit the premises," making a gesture to her wide open legs then pointing towards the door making Cindy snort loudly.
Pursing her lips before shaking her head, "nope because I was getting dick, when was the last time you got dick?" Cindy questioned her pretty friend with a drunken sympathetic look.
Genuinely thinking about Nico couldn't pinpoint the last time she had sex. Remembering her asshole boyfriend from almost 2 years ago was the last time she could remember, though Nico was a pretty shielded girl when it came to her sex life, unlike her BFF. She wishes she could have a few one-nighters here and there but she just didn't work like that.
"I don't know babe but I do have a really nice vibrator," Nico said, smirking and lightly shrugging at Cindy.
Choking on her gulp of wine, Cindy looked back up to Nico with a proud smile, "Thank god I bought you that! But seriously can you think of anyone you'd want to just - i don't know - rail?" she asked, having some hope for her best friend.
Nico blushed thinking of Slash. Feeling like she definitely shouldn't be thinking about him like that knowing she just met him only a few days ago but unable to stop herself from picturing his large rough hands grabbing —
"Bitch I know that look, spill now," Cindy ordered, looking at Nico with her 'mom look'.
Shrinking her face into her wine glass, unable to keep the pink off her cheeks, she kept chugging in hopes to not say anything but Cindy was having none of it. Grabbing the glass from her mouth Nico looked at her with a shocked expression, slowly turning into a child getting scolded knowing she wouldn't get out of this one.
"Fine! I met him at Deedee's store then he got me cigarettes and chips, and then we went to a diner, and ate, and he was SO sweet like we got along perfectly -- and then he walked to my car and gave me his number by sticking in my pack of cigs" Nico said with a glazed look on her face unable to stop her rambling about the pretty boy.
Cindy looked at her closes girlfriend with a soft smile, not remembering the last time she talked about someone like this. Her last lover was an asshole who Cindy absolutely hated. He not only cheated on her and manipulated her, but ruined her self confidence, which Cindy hated seeing. She knew about her family problems and mental issues so she could only hope this was the start of something good, whatever that may be.
"Okay what is this prince charming's name?" the brunette asked, wanting to do her research before her friend pursued.
Sighing quietly the drunk girl looked at Cindy with puppy dog eyes trying to keep it a secret. Her best friend looked right back at her with an unimpressed look knowing those never worked on her.
"Slash." Nico murmured quietly
"What?"
"Slash." she whispered
"Bitch just tell--"
"Slash! The super hot guitarist guy with fluffy hair and cool sunglasses!" Nico exclaimed, making hand gestures with her hands, stopping with wide eyes to look at Cindy to see her reaction.
Cindy pondered the name in her name immediately recognizing it, who didnt know him or his band? Feeling like she's never seen anything about him cheating or being a complete asshole, she looked at her best friend who wore a nervous expression, biting her nails. Finally sighing dramatically she gave her a small smile, making Nico perk up.
"Well I for one think he seems like a cool dude, but why hasn't he asked you out yet?" she asked the blonde with a slightly unimpressed look.
"Cause he sort of gave me his number and I've been way too nervous to call him. Like what if he thinks I called too soon or seem desperate, or what if he just wants to be friends." Nico said spitting out the word friends like the most disgusting thing ever.
Laughing at Nico quietly, Cindy shook her head, "One, anyone would die to be your friend, much less take you on a date babes. Plus he's probably been pissing himself waiting! So get ur cute ass up and call him!" she said gesturing to the phone on the little coffee table.
.
For the past 4 days Slash had been downright pissing himself waiting for the angel to call him. The boys asked what was up with him and he continued to wave a hand in dismissal hoping to hear the phone ring soon.
Sitting in his living room with the rest of the boys dazing in and out of reality, his head shot up, almost falling off the couch hearing the familiar sound of the phone ring.
Axl sighed standing up to grab it, "I got it. Are you expecting a call?" the redhead questioned Slash with a look seeing the normally relaxed boy jump up.
"Nope nope all good i'll get it though" he said with an out of breath chuckle looking at the phone ignoring the guy's strange looks towards him.
Clearing his throat he picked up the phone, "um hello?" he asked, scratching the back of head.
"Hey it's me Nico" came the angelic voice of Nicolette Bardot making the boy sport a huge grin on his face.
"Oh hey i was wondering when you were gonna call" he replied trying to sound as chill as possible, while practically shitting himself over this girl.
Nico looked over to her best friend who gave her an encouraging nod, letting her know to rip the bandaid off.
"Yeah I'm sorry I was like super busy this week but uh now I'm calling!" Nico told slash with a nervous chuckle.
Slash laughed to himself quietly sensing how nervous the girl was, which he picked up on easily in just the short 2 hours of knowing her.
"It's okay I get it. But uh — I was wondering if you'd maybe wanna go on a date?"
Nicolette swore she felt her heart hammer in her chest. Sure she was normally an anxious person but she hadn't been on a date in forever, nor asked by someone she was genuinely interested in.
Cleaning her throat lightly, "yes definitely! That — that would be super cool. How about tomorrow night?" She stammered out the question hoping she wasn't ruining this over the phone.
"Okay perfect I don't have you address so how about we meet at Roberto's at 8? The Italian place near main?"
Nico could practically hear the grin on his face, giggling to herself feeling extremely giddy she looked up to Cindy giving her a nod, making the brunette scream out a 'YES'.
"Okay that's perfect I'll uh — I'll see you tomorrow at 8." She told him biting her lip lightly trying to keep in her excitement.
"Yup tomorrow, Roberto's at 8."
"Okay cool, um bye" she said hanging up with a chuckle making him reciprocate before hearing the line go dead.
Sighing to herself feeling butterflies she couldn't wait 24 hours to actually go on a date with this man. Unbeknownst to her Slash was over the moon, practically going over every rule in the book for a perfect first date.
