What a Babe! (ryan ross)

♡ Swings and Boys ♡

I was just swinging, on my swing, at the park. While my friend Ray drones on and on and ONNN abt his stupid bands. I looked up from the ground and started feeling mildy uncomfortable. Then I noticed some guy sitting on the slide. He was staring at me. If he wasn't kind of cute I would've given him the finger.

He looked at little older than me, maybe 20, 21. From where I was, he looked fairly slim and scrawny, and he was quite tall too. He had a friendly looking face, but who was I to know? To me he was just some creepy stranger staring at me. 

I swear to god my heart skipped beat when he stopped looking at me, and looked AT me. I mean he actually made eye contact with me. He smiled in a cute way, and I smiled back. All of a sudden he stood up and began walking towards Ray and I.

Ray noticed my expression and finally (thank god) shut up. He looked at me and frowned. "Why do you look like you just saw a ghost?" He asked. "Well." I replied. "I saw a cute guy and now he's walking towards us." Ray turned around a saw the guy, who was now only 10 or so meters away from us.

"What do I do? What if he kidnaps me? Heeeelp." I cried, desperately grabbing Ray's shoulders and shaking him. "Bro. If he tries anything I'll get my mum, okay?" I nodded, and the boy sat down in the swing next to me. "Uh, hi." I said shyly.

"Hi. Um, sorry for being a little bit creepy before. I was just too scared to come talk to you." The boy replied. Before I could say anything, the boy put out his hand for me to shake. "My name's Ryan." I wearily shook it. "Um, Sylvan. And this is my friend Ray." Behind me Ray waves. 

Ryan looked at the ground quickly before looking at me again. "Do you have snapchat?" He asked. "Er, yes." I responded shyly. Ryan shuffled a little in his swing, a drop of sweat running down his forehead. He quickly wiped it off and asked softly "Would it be alright if I added you?" I nodded and he took his phone from the back pocket of his blue jeans. 

He told me his snapchat and I search him up, quickly finding it. I added him and sent him a snap of his face. He replied with one of me and we both began giggling like little girls. "So, I guess we're friends?" Ryan asked. "I guess so." I told him. All of a sudden, Ray's mum called us from the car, which was our signal it was time to go. "Um, I, gotta go. Promise you'll talk later? Maybe meet up sometime?" I asked Ryan, nervously rubbing my arm. I don't know why but for some reason I cared about this rando dude. "I'd love to! Maybe some time we could grab a coffee? Or tea?" Ryan responds. I nodded and waved to him as I ran to the car. 

"Bye! See you round." I cried out to Ryan. I caught up to Ray, who had his eyebrows raised in suspicion. "Can't I have friends? God." I sighed, but Ray says nothing as his mum drives us home.
