8. Late night phone calls

Ryan laid in bed silence surrounding him. His mind raising with thoughts mostly about Iris. Four weeks that's all it took for Iris to be the only thing Ryan thought about. He wondered how she did her hair. And if she wore make up.

Iris: Ry are you awake?

Ryan: yeah let's just say you keep me up all night

Iris: in a good way or bad?

Ryan: definitely good

Iris: good😊

Ryan: can I call you? I want to her your voice.

Iris: yeah why not.

Ryan tapped the Details on the top right hand of his phone. His finger hovered over the phone icon. Truth was he was a bit nervous. Its now or never, he thought before tapping the icon.

Ring.

Ring..

Ring...

(A/N Iris: italics Ryan: regular)

"Hi Ry." Iris said, you could clearly hear the smile in her voice. "Hi beautiful." Ryan greeted. Iris giggled, "Am I really what keeps you up all night?" "Why would I lie to you? You're all I think about 24/7." Ryan smiled.

"I hope thats true because if we're being honest you're all I think about." Iris said. Ryan smiled, "I promise I am being honest. I'd never lie to you." "Ry your such a charmer."

"Then call me Prince Charming." Iris giggled, "I'll take you up on that. Just for the record that's officially your contact name."

Ryan chuckled, "If I am your prince then your my princess. Tell me about your day." "Uh well it was good. Jeff hired me, you already know that. After that O'Brien and Sprayberry took me out for lunch. Then I came home and now I am talking to my Prince Charming. So all in all my day was great not good. What about you? How was your day?"

Ryan rolled over so he was on his back, a smile plastered on his face. "My day was great because I am talking to you." Iris giggled, that's what he wanted. He wanted to make her laugh. He loved her laugh. "Your such a dork."

Iris continued to laugh, "I could listen to you laugh all day." Iris blushed, "well I could listen to your sleepy voice all day. Ryan I really like where this is going. I think it's time to reveal ourselves but not tonight. I wanna keep talking to you."

Ryan smiled, "I am happy you feel that way. I know I've said this so many times but tell me about yourself. I wanna know everything." Iris giggled, "uh I have tattoos." "How many?" "Two but thinking about a third." Iris explained. Tattoos were something Iris was obsessed with. "What are they of?" "Maybe one day you'll find out." Iris teased.

They continued to talk for hour but eventually Iris and Ryan fall asleep. But no one had the chance to say goodnight or goodbye. Their phones rested in their hands as they slept. Light snores echoed through their phones.
