We were on the same Basket Ball team. He had been my neighbor for years, we never talked but I sure did notice him when he would go one runs shirt less only minutes after I got back from mine or when he would do his homework in his front lawn. Today was a game and I had no ride home. So I had to asked him. "Hey Matt, I was wondering if it was at all possible for you to give me a ride home." I let out the breathe I had been holding in." he nodded in agreement and mumbled a 'sure' I smiled and walked away, after the game I met him by his car and in an awkward silence we sat there. We lived about half an hour away from the school, about half way there I reached for the music and he did the same and we touched, I whispered a sorry and he turned up the music drumming the beat on his stirring wheel. I started whisper singing the lyrics to P!NK's song Just Like Fire.
"You have a good voice. I hear you singing on your runs all the time." I blush. We got home and nothing else was said in the car.
"Um thanks for the ride I said closing the door."
"Wait _______." I opened the door back up. "Go on a date with me Friday." I nodded and he said he would pick me up at seven.
