Ricky Olson Love Story

Ricky's POV
It has been 2 days since I got Y/Ns number. She hasn't called, texted, nothing. Have I done something wrong? Maybe she's just busy. I longed to hear from her again, she was really sweet. She was also very pretty, prettier than anyone I've ever seen.

Today I have to go to the studio to record with the band. We're in the works of making a new album we are all very excited for. I changed into my everyday clothes, jeans, a shirt, hoodie, and converse. Of course, they were all black. After a few minutes, I was ready to go. As I got in my car I checked my phone to see if I received anything from Y/N. Still nothing.

We are now 2 hours into recording and have decided to take a break. I make myself a coffee and just as I sit down to drink it, I feel my phone go off. I put it out to finally see a text from Y/N.

Hey Ricky! I'm so sorry for not texting I've been busy with helping my dad with stuff around the house and redecorating my room. Are you able to hang out soon? - Y/N

A smile is planted on my face as I read this. I've never been so excited to hear from someone in my entire life.

It's okay, family is important so I get it. I should be leaving the studio in about 20 minutes, would you want to get dinner? Or you can stop at my house, I'm fine with anything. - Ricky

Why did I say I'm leaving in 20 minutes? We're supposed to be recording for another 3 hours. It's to late now, I've already asked her I can't bail out now.

I'd love to we can go anywhere you want since I really don't know what's around haha
- Y/N

Does the diner by the library sound alright? - Ricky

That sounds perfect :) so is it like a date? -
Y/N

My face turned red from this. I didn't plan for it to be a date, it's to early for that. Though maybe at some point I can ask her to go one with me.

No, just a way to see each other. Get to know one another a little better - Ricky

Haha I'm just messing with you, see you in 40 x - Y/N

Great. How am I going to tell the guys I have to leave? I'll just tell them it's an emergency. I walked up to the lead singer of my band.

"Hey Chris, I'm so sorry but I have to leave early. It's uhm..a family emergency." I say this as I stare at the ground. I hated lying to him, he's been my best friend for years now. But I had no choice.

"Oh shit, is everything okay?" Chris stood up when he says this. He always stands when he's concerned.

"Yeah it's fine, I just have to be with family right now, they need me. Is it okay if I leave early?" I looked up at him with worry filled eyes. What if he finds out I'm lying? He'd kill me...

"Yes that's fine. Keep me updated, okay bud?" I nod and he pats me on the back. I grab my guitar and put it in it's case. I head to my car and drive to my house to drop off my guitar.

It's not a date, but while I was home I decided I want to look good for seeing Y/N. I grabbed a plain back shirt and black dress pants. I changed and decided to keep the shoes I wore before on. I walked back to my car and found myself getting more and more nervous. What if I say something that makes it awkward? I really like her, maybe a little to much. I would hate to ruin the friendship I'm starting to have with her. I get lost in my own thoughts and before I know it, I'm at the diner. I take one final look in the car mirror. Well here goes nothing, I'm not going to fuck this one up.
