Over & Over Again (Richard Camacho Fanfic)

Chapter 4 : Part 2

Richard's POV

I sat on my bed & pulled out my phone.

It was about to be 7 and I still hadn't gotten a text from Nicole.

I was becoming completely paranoid & frustrated.

***

Did she even want to go in the first place?

Had I pressured her so much that she didn't wanna go now?

Maybe I should've asked her before today?

No..What if the kiss on the cheek made things awkward & she wants nothing to do with me now?

***

"Yeah, I think you were closer on the last one. " Yashua laughed, breaking me out of my thoughts.

"Ha..very funny. " I responded in an annoyed tone as I looked down & checked my phone again.

"Give it a rest, bro." Yashua began as he stood in the door way. " It's a hard decision to make, so just let her think about it. "

As my brother gave his pep talk , I checked my phone & realized that he was probably right.

I had no missed calls or new messages from anyone.

"Yeah, you're right. Shoulda asked her earlier , huh? " I asked.

"You think? Ha. Don't worry. She'll come around." Yashua assured and walked out the room.

I decided to give it some time & just chill, but I knew I had to see her before I left.

As I laid on my bed, I felt my phone vibrate.

It was Nicole.

It had to be her.

***

My heart started beating really fast as the words "new message from unknown user" popped up on my lock screen.

I immediately unlocked my phone and opened the message.

I was right.

It was her.

-from unknown

Hey Richard. It's Nicole. I think I've made my decision, but I think we should meet somewhere before. Are you busy? I know you have a lot to do.

I saved her number quickly & answered her message.

-To Nicole ♡
Hey Nicki. I'm not busy. I finished packing about an hour ago and I'm just chilling. Where do you wanna meet? I'll be there in no time ,but I gotta leave before 11. Is that fine?

As I pressed send, my hands were shaking. I couldn't believe she had actually texted me.

***

About five minutes later, she answered.

from Nicole ♡
There's a Starbucks about 30 minutes away. Is that fine?

I told her it was fine and rushed to the bathroom to freshen up a bit.

I didn't want her to think I was a slob.

I washed up , washed my hair, changed my clothes & rushed out the door.

I couldn't wait to see her.
