Sorry it took so long to update. I had no power in my house for 66 hours because of the huge snow storm that hit my area. Anyway, here's an update and I hope you enjoy. Leave comments and vote if you so desire! :)

The night was growing later as nine o'clock rolled around. The highway was bare as everyone was already home from a long day at work. I liked the calmness of the roads. I never did well driving in lots of traffic so it calmed my nerves a bit that there wasn't too much traffic. I could see Scotty's tour bus headlights shining in my rear view mirror. That was a great sight. I wonder what they're talking about or doing. Curiosity took over my mind. Audrie was looking out the window when she looked at me and smiled. Staring at me I had a confused look on my face as I could see her out of the corner of my eye. 

"Tonight. I'm gonna spend the night at your house, obviously, but I'm going to bed early hoping to give you and Scotty some alone time. Just so you know." Audrie said. 

"Woah, Audrie, you don't have to do that. We can both hang out with him you don't have to leave us alone. Plus that'll just make me more nervous. I can carry on a conversation better when you're there. I can lean on you for assistance. Don't." She could hear the nerves tremble out of my voice. 

"You've been dreaming of this day for three years now. You're the one that got me hooked on Scotty anyway and you did call dibs," Her devilish grin said it all. "Also, I've seen the way he looks at you. He totally digs you." 

"Shut up. He does not. He's famous and could get any girl he wanted. He doesn't even know me so no."

"He's definitely gonna know you after tonight. Now stop complaining and just thank me for being an awesome best friend and helping you get the guy of your dreams." 

"Fine! Thank you." You said with a straight face while staring at the road. 

"Great. Turn on some tunes this is too quiet of a ride," She turned on the radio and began to sing a long with the Thomas Rhett song that played through the speakers. 

I stared out the front window focusing on my drive as my mind flew in every direction. Thinking about what Audrie had said. Is Scotty actually falling for me? I mean he doesn't even know me. I don't know whats going to happen tonight but I'm not sure I'm ready for it. Time passed by as Audrie and I sang a long to every song that played on the radio. 

Scotty's POV

My headphones were in as I was listening to good ol' George Strait. I couldn't help but think of what might happen tonight and tomorrow. I'm falling for Bridget. I don't know why because I hardly know her. I guess it's the way she holds herself up. She doesn't care what people think, at least I think. I could be wrong. Like I said, I hardly know her. But I'm hoping to change that tonight. 

"Hey, dude, whatcha thinking?" Joey cut off my thoughts as if he knew I needed someone to talk to about all of this. 

"Man, I don't know. I think I'm in trouble." 

"With who? Your mom? Because I can talk to her if you missed a call or something." 

"No, it's not my mom, genius! It's Bridget. She's been on my mind all night and I don't know what to do about it." 

"Don't do anything. Get to know her, don't pass up an opportunity like this. It's great to get to know new people and Bridget and Audrie, don't forget about her, seem like great people to get to know." Joey said. 

"Audrie is great too. She's funny and I can tell she really cares and looks out for Bridget, which just makes me feel like I should be there for Bridget. Like she's missing something or she's not telling me something. I can feel it and I feel like I should be there for her."
