Tyler x Reader

Stood Up

PROMPT

Reader is stood up by her blind date, Tyler sees this and saves her from embarrassment.

It had been 30 minutes since you had come to the cozy restaurant. No man had come in who looked vaguely like the Gale, who invited you out. No blonde curls, or piercing blue eyes. You bit your lip, eyeing the obviously annoyed waiters, discussing what to do with you. 

A dejected sigh broke the silence around your small table, you sipped your second glass of rose, hoping your Tinder date would hurry up. There was a group of people who were lingering outside over the street. The couple girls had eyed you up before, obviously pitying you. They had been eating outside in the other restaurant, and had a good view of you sitting by yourself. 

Suddenly, a tall curly haired man broke away from the group, and came in. You couldn't bring your eyes away from him as he strolled over. 

"Hey, so sorry I'm late, love." He spoke slightly louder than necessary. Instantly you understood what he was up to, and surprisingly you where very grateful. 

"No worries sweetheart, I'm used to it by now." You joked, a smile came easy as the man laughed and sat down. 

"I'm Tyler." He said lowly, you tried to stifle your laughter.

"I'm Y/N, thank you so much for this." You gushed, his beautiful blue eyes shined with mirth as he chuckled. 

"Anytime, how was your day love?" He asked, you bit your lip.

And just like that, a easy conversation flowed. Tyler was sweet, and very charming. It was obvious he meant no disrespect in stepping in, and he certainly was not cocky at all. You felt yourself becoming more and more thankful Gale hadn't shown up. 

All through dinner, you found yourself unable to stop smiling, the conversation was enlightening, and light hearted. After you finished, you insisted on paying, as a thank you for stepping in. Tyler protested, but eventually agreed sullenly. 

"Next time I pay!" He joked, making you giggle shyly.

"Next time huh?" You teased, secretly hoping there would be more than just a next time. Tyler's smile melted. 

"Uh, I mean-" He floundered, you cut him off with a gentle touch on the back of his hand. 

"I would very much enjoy a next time." You spoke shyly, a soft smile curled your lips upwards. Tyler chuckled quietly. 

"Let me walk you to your car." He said as you both stood. You nodded and pulled on your coat and slung your purse over your shoulder. 

"Thank you." You smiled gratefully at Tyler as you both exited the cozy building. You purposefully chose the longer way to walk to your car, Tyler keeping a slow pace beside you. 

You could tell he was also trying to drag the night out as long as possible. You bit your lip as you saw your car come into view. 

"This is it." You broke the comfortable silence as you stopped infant of your car. You turned to Tyler with a half smile. 

"I had fun tonight." Tyler spoke softly, his voice husky. It sent shivers down your spine. 

"Me too. Thank you so much again." You stepped a little closer, Tyler did as well. 

"Its alright, it was pretty bold of me." Tyler joked, a half smile made his little dimple appear on his cheek. 

"It was," You admitted, "But you are a awesome person, so its fine. I'll have to make it up to you somehow." You looked up at Tyler shyly, he chucked. 

"Sounds good." He seems to be getting closer, you felt each hear beat slam against your ribcage. 

You wordlessly pulled yourself up onto your tiptoes, your lips millimetres away from Tyler's, his breath hitched, before he closed the gap. 

You felt a blush instantly bloom across your cheeks, his lips moved slowly against yours. You felt your heart thunder in your chest. Before he could pull back, you slipped your hands into the mess of curls decorating the back of his head, he pressed himself closer, his sculpted arms wrapping around your waist. 

As you broke off, you couldn't help but smile widely, Tyler chuckled shyly. 

"Sorry, I should have asked." You whispered, Tyler smiled and rested his forehead against yours. 

"I don't mind." Tyler smiled, his steel blue eyes where soft and locked with yours. You let out a shy laugh. Tyler pressed another soft kiss to your lips, making your heart stutter in your chest again. 

"Can I have your number, so we can meet up again?" Tyler asked quietly, you nodded and let your hands slip down from his shoulders back to your sides. 

"Of course, I'd love to meet up again." You smiled, grabbing his phone and entering your details. 

"Perfect, thanks." Tyler smiled widely as you handed back his phone. 

"No, thank you. For tonight." You fiddled with your keys, not wanting the night to end. 

"Its alright, don't worry about it. I enjoyed it." Tyler laughed, a sudden ringing noise broke you both out of your bubble.

"Sorry, thats me." Tyler sounded very embarrassed as he answered. You waited while he finished talking. 

"Sorry, my friends want to leave and I'm the sober driver. I have to go." Tyler apologised, you waved him off. 

"No worries. Have a good night, see you later?" You asked, Tyler smiled and nodded. 

"You too." He said, leaning down and pecking you on the lips, making you giggle. 

You hopped in your car, and watched him walk to a nearby club, meeting up with a bunch of people. As you drove home, you heard your phone buzz. A text, probably from Tyler. This made you grin.

You had forgotten about the text, it wasn't until you where snuggled in bed did you open the text. 

I had the best time tonight. You have the most beautiful smile. Is it weird I miss you already?

- Tyler

You giggled tiredly and quickly responded.
