I turn to where the voice is coming from and see Max along side of Lando, Carlos, Danny and Charles at the bar with a row of shots infront of them
"Yeah Dylan, come here" Lando adds and I walk up to them
"I was just about to leave" I say when I get close to them
"Come on, its just 10pm no one should leave that early" Danny says
"I just have a lot going on right now" I appologise
"you sure?" Max asks me worried and I nod my head
"yeah, thanks for the invite guys. Next time ill join I promise" I tell them "have good time" I say and wave all of them goodbye and make my way to the entrance door and take out my phone and text Tom
I'm already waiting outside to go home, you can stay for a while if you want. I can get home on my own
You sure? I can leave too
Yeah, Ill catch up with you tomorrow or something
this isnt about Mystery man is it?
no, he's all good. Something else happened, I just need some time to process it
That bad huh?
No, I should be happy about it, I just dont know what to feel at the moment
Did he kiss you?
No it has nothing to do with him... its Arthur, you know little Leclerc he kinda of confessed his love to me?
ahww thats cute! I always liked him the most out of that friend group. Hold on, Im gonna leave too, you gotta explain this situation, give me like 10 minutes
take your time!
I put my phone away walk to the side and lean against the wall while waiting on Tom.
"Hey Dylan is everything okay?" Max says after he runs outside and spots me
"yeah yeah, Im just exhausted. Today has been a lot..." I tell him and his facial expression changes drastically
"Oh... That was not my fault was it?" He worries "We can call the dinner off, if that makes you feel better, I dont want you to feel overwhelmed"
"NO" I say instantly "I mean no... Im looking forward to it" I tell him with a smile
"great... wanna talk about it tho?" he asks me and I look into his blue eyes, my heartrate instantly going up
"Its all good, I tend to not do very well with crowded places and the stress is kind of getting to me" I lie my way out "Im just waiting for my friend to get out here to go home"
"well, you have my number so just message or call if you need anything. I will see you tomorrow schat" he says and smiles before walking back inside
"schat?" I say confused and flattered at the same time, a grin appears on my face that I cant get rid off
What is happening to me? I cant be one of those people who cant choose between to people...
