"How big is your family?" I ask, turning the corner, passing the perfume shop I regretted not going into.
"Just me, my mom and my dad." He replies as he turns into a sports store.
"What about you?" He asks.
"I'm the only child too" i reply.
"How does this look?" He held up a Giants jersey against his white shirt and black leather jacket.
"Looks nice."
"If I let you go into one of those girly stores will you tell me I look hot?"
"You look hot." I bit my lip.
"Alright, you got me, ill be right back, let me pay for this." I nodded and started looking a round the store at the football gear. Suddenly a guy tapped on my shoulder. I turned around.
"Did it hurt?" My face turned serious, was he really saying this?
"When you fell from heaven?" I have him a look that said back off.
"Are you serious? With that cheesy line? You probably use that for every girl you meet." I turned around, facing him. He had black hair, brown eyes, with a polo and shorts.
"Chill, I just thought I might give you my number." He reached into his back pocket.
"Leave her alone." Ryan demanded from behind, a plastic bag that read Sports And More on it, clenched in his balled up fist.
"Woah woah." He held his hands up. He was a little shorter than Ryan and definitely looked warned.
"Back. Off. Frank." He ordered. I have never seen him this serious. I'm impressed.
Wait?
Did he just say his name?
He knows him?
I barely controlled myself to hold in the question. The guy gave him a weird glare and walked off.
"Time to go to your girly store?"
"Ok, so, I was thinking Hollister, but then I was totally digging this perfume place I saw on the way.." of trailed off walking out of the store. "Oh God," he smacked his forehead.
I ended up buying a perfume that read Hawaii. After we made it back to my car he got serious again, after moments of funny and sexy flirting, "let's not talk about the sports store thing, with that guy."
Did Ryan recognize the guy?
"What sports store thing?" I smirk. He got the joke and we laughed as he opened the door to my car.
"See you tomorrow at school?"
"Ok Ryan." I said as I hoped into my car.
I put the key into the ignition and brought the car to life after a wave of goodbye, I drove off, leaving the ice cream and mall just a fun memory.
