Diner

I have that diner with Justin Timberlake and my dad tonight. I honestly don't want to go anywhere today. I want to be a lazy bum like the rest of the people in America. I know I should be happy about this, I mean, he's Justin Timberlake. But, I wanted to spend it with Ryan. Tonight is the only night he has off in Nashville before he goes on tour. 

I opened up my phone to see a text from someone. It was an article from a tabloid. It had a photo of me. I opened it up to see it was a photo of Emilee, Harry, and I. There was a lot of shit they are saying. They say I'm dating someone from one direction. I'm not. I'm dating Ryan Follese. I can't tell them that though.

I read further down to see they did my background. They really did some digging. They found my SAT scores from before I dropped out of collage.

Then there was more about Emilee and her life. Honestly I think these people should leave them alone, and let them live their life.

"Get ready!" My dad yelled from his room. "Dress nice!"

I looked in my closet, and picked out an outfit. It was a crop top with Aztec patterns, a black skirt, and black heal boots. I think this will do. I hope.

I looked in the mirror, and double checked my make up. I think this is the best it's going to get. I put on a smile, and grabbed my bag. I walked out of my room, and closed the door behind me.

"Hi. I'm Justin," Justin said after he opened the door.

"Sara," I said plainly. "Nice to meet you,"

"Come on in. I was going to cook myself, but I'm a terrible cook. So I had a pro do it. I hope you like it," Justin lead my dad and I to the plates of food. It looked really good.

"Thank you for inviting us Justin," my dad said as he sat down.

"It's no problem," He smiled.

The night was filled of stories of Justin in tour, my dad making music, and everything else.

"I'm going home. Justin will take you back when you need to," my dad said as he got up. He kissed my head, and left.

"So you seeing anyone? Like Harry Styles?" He asked as he took a sip of wine.

"No. I'm just friends," I said. Why would he care?

"Oh. I just thought. You seem like you have a boyfriend though. You keep checking your phone," he was right. Ryan hasn't texted me tonight. I can't let anyone know I'm dating him though.

"My friend was going to call me when she got off work," I lied.

"Ah," He got up and walked up next to me. "Can I show you something?" Justin asked.

"Sure," I got up. I followed Justin up stairs, and to the patio. There was a beautiful view of the moon reflecting in his pool, and above that was a thousand of stars.

"I love this place," Justin admitted.

"It's quite something," I added.

Justin grabbed my hand, and just looked forward. What is he doing? I don't want him to do this. I want Ryan to. "Where is your bathroom?" I asked letting go of his hand.

"Right there," he pointed to the bathroom.

I went to the bathroom, and locked the door. I looked at my reflection before looking down at my phone. Should I call Ryan? I really miss him. No. I should just stay here. Right? I took a deep breath, and put my phone in my bag. I walked out, and went next to Justin.

"I should get going," I said.

"Yeah, okay," he nodded.

He turned on the radio on the way back to my place, and Tonight Tonight came on. I couldn't help but smile. I started to sing along. Just the thought if Ryan makes me happy. I honestly don't know what is going on with me. I've never felt this way before.

Justin stopped at my house and said, "You have a beautiful voice,"

"Thanks," I replied as I unbuckled.

"Do you want to go out some day?" He asked as I begun to open the door.

"Im afraid not. Nothing personal, but I kinda like this other guy," I said.

"That's okay," he smiled. 

I got out if the car, and walked to my door. I waved goodbye before going in.

"So how did it go? Did you say yes? My dad asked. 

"I said no," I informed him.

"He was perfect for you," 

"Are you trying to hook me up with Justin Timberlake?" I asked my dad.

"Maybe," my dad looked down.

"Can't I do this my own way?" I asked.

"Yeah," he sighed. "I just thought is give it a try," he added.

"Dad. I can do this on my own," I shook my head, and walked up to my room.

I called Ryan.

"Sara. Hey," Ryan whispered.

"Why are you whispering?" I asked. 

"I'm busy. Can I call you tomorrow?" Ryan asked.

I shook my head. "Yeah," I said as I shrugged.

"Bye," Ryan hung up. 

I thought tonight was his night off. What was he so busy doing? I put my phone on my desk.

I looked at the photo on my night stand of my old friends. I miss them. I heard my phone ding. I looked over at it. It was from an unknown number. I read the message. It said, "your dad gave me your number. I was hoping we could just go out for coffee. As friends. What do u say? - Justin Timberlake"

I thought back to Ryan. What would he do if he found out u was hanging out with Justin. Probably nothing. I'm aloud to have friends. I replied with,"Tomorrow at 10?"

I heard a ding on my phone, and a message that read, "Sounds good to me ;)"

I sat down on my floor, and wondered what the hell Ryan was doing.
