How To Love (Tyler Seguin)

Chapter 6

Amy's POV

I finally have a day off from work so I decide to call up Tyler. I don't quite understand things with him yet.

I've accepted that he's my friend, my very attractive friend, who I talk to on a daily basis. We've gotten closer these past few days while texting, and I've accepted that too. I just haven't fully comprehended the whole kissing thing.

I dial up his number, and I start to feel anxious as it rings.

"Hello?," he says.

"Hey Tyler," I say.

"Oh hey Amy. It's nice to hear your voice."

"You're acting like you haven't heard my voice in a while."

"It feels like forever," he says.

"We talked on the phone yesterday," I point out.

"Ya and that was forever ago," Tyler says with a chuckle.

I roll my eyes. "Ya whatever you say."

"So is there any particular reason that you called?," he asks.

"Ya I said that I would tell you when I'm free, and I'm free today," I tell him. "That is if you're not too busy."

"I'm never too busy for you," he says.

I blush. "So do you want to do something today then?"

"Ya I'd like that," he says. "How about dinner at my place tonight?"

"Sure. Are you cooking?," I ask.

"I'll try. If I fail, we can always order a pizza."

"What time should I be there?"

"Come for like 7:00," he says.

"Ok. I'm gunna need to know your address then," I say.

Tyler tells me his address and I write it down on a sticky note.

"Ok I'll see you at seven," I say.

"Looking forward to it," he says. "Oh and tell Dylan I say hi."

"Ok I will."

"Ok bye Amy."

"Bye Tyler," I say and hang up the phone.

It's only around 11:00 right now, so there's a lot of time until I have to get ready. There's a knock on my door, and I tell Dylan to come in.

"Amy, I'm kinda hungry. Can you make something?," he asks.

"Ya sure buddy," I say and get off my bed.

I follow Dylan downstairs to the kitchen. I start to make him a grilled cheese sandwich and soup. We sit at the table and eat.

When we're done eating, I wash the dishes. Dylan says he wants to watch a movie, so we sit on the couch and watch Spider-Man.

While watching Spider-Man 2, I look at my phone, and it's 5:30. I should start to get ready now. I get off the couch and start to go upstairs.

"Where are you going?," Dylan asks.

"I'm going to go get ready," I say. "I'm going to Tyler's place tonight for dinner."

"Oh ok," Dylan says, a little sad.

"Tyler says hi, by the way," I add.

That seems to cheer him up a bit.

"Tell him I say hi too," he says.

"Ok I will. But I'm going to go get ready now. Dad should be home around six like he always is."
