Radio Love

Old Friends

Elizabeth

I woke up with a huge smile on my face, today is the day I start my internship at K 104. I jumped up out of bed, gathered my clothes and went in the bathroom.

I looked in the mirror at my ragged, knotty blonde hair. I looked like there was a rat living in my hair. I turned the shower on and jumped in.

When I got out of the shower, I blow dried my hair and combed it. Then I brushed my teeth. Now I looked presentable, I then put on my black lace shirt that showed my shoulders along with my blue skinny jeans and to top it off my knee high black boots. 

I grabbed my phone and fed my dog buster. He is a black lab with one blue eye and one green eye, you don't see that everyday, do you? 

I petted him then walked out the door and jumped in my car and drove to the radio station.

*********************

 I parked my car and walked in the building. It was a nice looking building big but content and had a good vibe. I walked into the office and sat down to wait until they called me. As I was sitting someone else walked in and my mouth dropped open.

I couldn't believe my eyes, it was Tyler Stone my old best friend from my childhood and he was madly in love with me.

Our eyes locked and we stayed that way for a while until he finally moved and walked over to me. Like a nice person I was I got up and hugged him, he hugged me back.

"Damn, Tyler you look good." I said and he immediately smiled. He was wearing a black tux with a blue tie ( which he always wore) and his facial and body features were outstanding. His blonde shaggy hair fell just above his big brown eyes and his smile, his damn smile was still the cutest thing ever. He looked like he had been working out, damn I missed him.

"So do you, so what are you hear for Lizard?" He called me by my nickname back when we were little. 

"Um... the internship, you?" I asked and looked outside towards the door. If I kept staring at him I would end up drooling, okay so I have never liked him, ever.

Okay maybe I did, or still do, but it's best we are not together. 

The last time we spoke is when he confessed his feelings for me for the second time and I turned him down and I know it crushed him but he was still there for me two days after that, I couldn't ask for anyone better than him.

"Wow, what a coincidence, I'm interning as well, I didn't think in a million years you would be the other intern." He said and walked away, I realized that the office lady was calling our names. I grabbed my purse and walked over as well.

The lady told us what we had to do and the rules. Our jobs were to get coffee, take notes, don't get in the way and no sex at all. I laughed at the last one, never in a million years would I do it with him.

"So, you wanna grab coffee or something after we are done with this?" Tyler asked.

"Yeah sure Ty." I smiled and got back to work. I never took so many notes in one night in my entire life. After our shift was over we headed to the cafe for coffee.

"So how have you been Lizard since your um.. father's death?" He said, I knew he was scared to bring it up, yes it broke my heart when my father died but I come to terms that he's never coming back and that I will never see him again. After he died from cancer 5 years ago, I shut myself from everyone but somehow I let Tyler in, he just wouldn't leave me until he knew I was alright.

"I've been fine, pretty good actually. How have you been since Brianna's death?" I asked and his face automatically turned into a frown, Brianna was his little sister and she died because of a drunk driver, he was crushed but I was there for him just like he was there for me and also because I loved Brianna as a sister as well.

"I've been doing okay, I have been going to therapy but other than that pretty good." He said but I could tell he was still touchy on the subject so I changed it.

"So have you met any girls lately?" I asked and winked at him.

"Nah, I've just been sleeping around lately to be completely honest, I haven't found you know the right one yet." He said and I automatically slapped his arm.

Sleeping around, I taught him better. 

"OMG TYLER STONE DO NOT BECOME A MAN WHORE!" I yelled. He laughed so hard that everyone turned around and looked at him which made him laugh even harder.

"Trust me, i'm not becoming a man whore." He was still laughing after that and I smiled because his laugh was so cute and I missed it,

I missed him.

"I gotta get home to Buster, so i'll see you around? Okay?" I said and hugged him goodbye and went home and the minute I walked in my door and laid on my bed I fell asleep.
