Rey was heading out to Finn's car when she realized she left her cell phone inside.

"Guys, I'll be right back, I left my phone," she said and quickly jogged back into the bar. Her phone was sitting on the table and she picked it up and walked out.

While she was in Finn's car, she opened her phone up to scroll through her social media. When the phone opened up, it was opened to her contacts. That was odd. It wasn't opened to just any contact, it was opened to a new contact. Ben. It had his cell phone number and email address programmed in there. He must have programmed himself in her phone when she'd forgotten it.

She was feeling a bit tipsy from her 3 glasses of wine and decided it would be a great idea to text him now.

Rey: "Hmmmm... I see someone took advantage of my lost phone. 😎"

Ben: "I simply seized an opportunity"

Ben: "Besides, I never caught your name"

Rey: "Rey"

Ben: "Rey"

Rey: "Thanks again for the drink"

Ben: "No problem. Would you like to get coffee sometime?"

Rey: "Yes, I would. How does tomorrow morning work? I don't have class until 2:00"

Ben: "Great. How about 10:30? The Starbucks in town?"

Rey: "How about the Dunkin' Donuts by campus? I don't have a car"

Ben: "It's a date. See you then"

"You guys, I think I just set up a date" Rey said to her three friends in the car, her cheeks getting hot and red again.

"With who?" Finn asked, quicker than he meant.

"That guy from the bar," Rey replied, still staring at her phone.

"Ooohhh! I knew it," Rose said and they high fived. "He's hot, keep him."

"HEY!" Finn replied. Rose and Finn were a couple.

"Not as hot as you baby," Rose replied and winked at Rey.

"Stop number 1," Finn said as he pulled onto campus. Rey got out, the other 3 had an off campus apartment, but Rey couldn't afford to live with them.

"Thanks for the ride!" Rey yelled and got her student card to go into her dorm. She was on cloud 9 as she basically floated into her dorm room. She had a single, she was thrilled to finally have her own little slice of earth to just herself. She jumped into bed and replayed the events of the night over and over in her head. It was so out of character for her to approach Ben in the bar, but boy was she glad she did. She wondered so many things about him. Who was he? What did he do? Why could he be out at 10:30 the next morning? Did he work? How old was he? She could tell he was older than her, but she didn't know how much. She fell asleep with a million thoughts racing through her mind.
