Stargirl

I opened the door of my hotel room and saw Ryder standing there in a suit.

"Hey, you look amazing," Ryder spoke

I smiled, "Thank you. Come in, I still have to put in my earrings."

Ryder walked into my hotel room and looked down at my suitcase.

"You don't unpack?" He asked me

I shook my head, "Only if I'm here for more than four days."

"Can't relate." He commented as I walked into my bathroom

Ryder followed me into the bathroom as I put in my earrings.

"So what is a cradle robber?" He asked me

He must have seen the celeb gossip post.

"When you are with someone much younger than you." I answered, "You're not a cradle robber. It's when you date someone half your age plus seven so for you it would be like sixteen or something."

"So you're good at math I see. We're only five years apart, it's not like you're fifteen and I'm twenty. Plus we're not even together." Ryder thought about

I nodded, "Does our age gap bother you?"

"What? No! Does it bother you?" Ryder wondered

I shook my head, "No as long as you don't have bad intentions."

"Not at all." He replied

"Is that what you think?" Ryder continued

I turned towards him, "No, I just want to make sure because of my last relationship. Plus the media might turn this into something that it's not."

"Understood," Ryder spoke

Ryder and I just stared at each other before we just started smiling at each other.

"Ready to have a fun night?" Ryder grinned

I nodded, "Let's go."

We went to some high-end club that was in downtown Los Angeles. It was apparently super exclusive but Ryder had some good ass connections.

I ended up having a great time with Ryder and our friends.

I even got away with a bit of light drinking because Ryder got a VIP room. Ryder was so funny when he was tipsy especially when he tried to dance.

"Am I as good as you?" He asked me

"Hey, hey! Diego, did you know Holland danced for sixteen years?" Ryder chattered to Diego who was Juuling like there was no tomorrow

I smiled and nodded, "You could have gone to Joffrey or even been a Rockette."

He laughed as he wrapped his arm around my waist.

"Thanks." He beamed as I put my head on his shoulder

"How about some karaoke?" Ryder proposed

The whole VIP room cheered in response to Ryder's proposal. Although, I think he had an unfair advantage because he was a singer.

I loved hearing Ryder sing "Bye Bye Bye" and "Wannabe". Turned it he wasn't as good as a singer when he was drunk.

We did a duet to Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney and I was happy and not so happy that Diego got the whole thing on video.

Ryder and I Ubered back to our hotel.

Our driver probably gave us a one-star rating because of how obnoxious we were. But we were making good memories.
