Falling for Dalton Rapattoni

Chapter 18 (My Best Friend)

DALTONS POV

Why did I not think of this sooner. Will and I were best friends last year! He is an amazing performer, and at the end of junior year he got offered to be picked up by a talent agent in California. I've been watching his Instagram to see all the cool things he's doing. He is making a spiral around the US. I mean it couldn't be more perfect timing that he is in Montana now. Of course I still had his number memorized. Go I quickly dialed his number. I didn't want Alex to realize I still had his phone.

The phone began ringing. 

"Hello?" The voice on the other side said.

"Will! It's your buddy Dalton!"

"Salty?"

"That's me."

"Why the sudden call and who's phone is this?"

"Well that's a little bit of a long story."

"Oh."

"Anyways I saw on your instagram that you were passing through Montana. Any chance you are still here?"

"Here? As in you are in Montana too? How did you-"

"Yeah that's also a long story."

"So..."

"So... yeah. You remember freshman year. At homecoming?"

"Yeah."

"When I was your wing man and I had to spend all night with the most annoying girl in school."

"Yeah...."

"Well today is the day your going to pay me back."

"Oh boy."

"Okay so theres this girl"

"There always is."

"Hey! Well anyway I brought her here to see her boyfriend right?"

"Okay."

"Well she walked in on him and another girl ha-"

"Alright I get it! And"

"So yeah she was crying and we had no where to go so we went to a hotel. And in the middle of the night my car got stolen. I don't have a phone charger and she doesn't even have her phone."

"Holy Macaroni Rapattoni. Sounds like you got yourself into quiet a pickle."

"Yeah. Well, so I know this is a lot to ask but you still owe me...."

"Yeah I know... what is it?"

"Could you maybe drive here and give us a ride back to Sunnyvale. Or at least help us find the car."

"I'll tell you what, I'll start driving there now. When I get there we can discuss what to do with this girl of yours."

"Thanks man so much!" 

"Yeah so what hotel are you at?"

"Well I'm not exactly at a hotel..."

"But you said..."

"Yeah I kind of went to go have a chat with Alex."

"My brother?"

"Oh no. Ellie's Ex."

"Ellie. So that's the lucky lady."

I gave him the address the taco bell that was like a mile away.

"Okay i'll be there in just jiffy."

"Thanks! You don't know how much this means to me."

"No problem."

"Oh and Will..."

"Yes?"

"Never say the word 'jiffy' again."

"Will do daddio!"

Then he hung up the phone. I walked back to the door step and laid the phone on the step.

I began my journey to Taco Bell.
