Text him.
No! Don't!
Yes! Text him!
Should I?
Yes!
I was sitting in my room battling with myself as to weather or not I should text Ryan. We had been talking a lot again recently. And I really liked how it was almost as if we had never stopped.
‘Hey :)' I tapped out on my screen.
I looked at it for a few seconds and then hit send. And about a minute later I got a reply.
‘Hello cutie :)' it read.
I couldn't help but smile.
Me: ‘How're you?'
Ryan: ‘Just peachy. And yourself?'
I loved how he always replies with ‘just peachy.' Its different and it sets him apart in a way.
Me: ‘Pretty great! :)'
Ryan: ‘Why is that?'
Because I'm talking to you, I thought.
Me: ‘I just had a really good week.'
Ryan: ‘That's good. :)'
Me: ‘Indeed it is. :)'
Ryan: ‘I have a question. Its pretty out there.'
My heart started racing. What did he want to ask me?
Me: ‘Ok'
Ryan: ‘Could I be so obliged as to take you on a date sometime?'
Damn, I love how he talks. The way he uses words that make my heart skip a beat. Its like his own language; I've never met anyone else who speaks it. He is unlike any guy I have had the pleasure to fall for. He talks in a way that most have long forgotten, a dead language that when coming from him is very much alive. A way that challenges today's dull minds and speaks straight to the heart.
I remember back to when we talked before...
Me: ‘If I remember correctly, you've asked me that before...'
Ryan: ‘Well, ya.'
My heart felt like somebody had dropped a crate of bricks on it. Heavy and hurting.
Me: ‘I really, really, really wish I could say yes. I mean you have no idea how badly I wish I could say yes, but I'm not allowed to date seniors. :('
Ryan: ‘We're not ‘dating' silly. I just wanna take you out to eat.'
Why does he always have to make things harder? I wish I could say yes, but I know my parents and it would be a huge risk... They would ground me for at least a month or two if I went on a date with him and they found out... and would they ever even trust me again...
Me: ‘I still doubt my parents will go for it.'
Ryan: ‘Tell them I'm a junior or a sophomore.'
Me: ‘Yeah... about that I've talked to my mom about you and she knows you're a senior...'
Ryan: ‘Really? Like about what?'
Me: ‘Like about how I kind of like you.'
God, when did I get so brave?
Ryan: ‘Awe. :) But did she get mad?'
Me: ‘Nah. But she told me I shouldn't get too deep into liking a guy that I cant be with.
Ryan: ‘Well I still wanna hang out with you.'
Should I tell him?
Go for it!
Me: ‘Well if you're going to Regional Scholars Bowl tournament on the 6th, I'm going to be there too.'
Ryan: ‘omgomgomg :)'
Me: ‘Fangirl attack much? haha :)'
Ryan: ‘You're cute :) Snap me!'
We snapchatted until I went to bed.
I felt like there were a million butterflies living in my stomach. ♥
