"Just hold onto me"


The next day Val woke up to shaking, Sade being the perpetrator.

"It's almost time, hurry up!" She yelled as she bounced on her bed; a blown up mattress, shaking her best friend.

"For what?" Her voice was groggy and she could barely manage to lift her head from her pillow, hair all over the place- blocking her vision.

"Josh said he's like 5 minutes away. Hurry up dumbass!" Sade climbed off the bed, making her way over to some brown boxes. She began looking for jeans, tossing a pair at her friend. "No surprise you forgot." She scoffed, "We're lucky there's not even much snow out here right now." She tossed a long sleeve shirt, moving onto jackets. "Get up!!"

"I'm up!" Val grew annoyed as she slammed her palm onto the inflatable mattress, a loud smack echoing around the naked room. She shuffled out of bed, wrapping her self in her blanket. "My sweater is in that box over there." She nodded towards another box.

Sade quickly found it along with long fuzzy socks, tossing both onto the bed. "Wear your boots, trust me. " She advised.

"Why? my sneakers won't do?"

"Trust me, canvas and snow? No"

Val knitted her eyebrows in confusion as she shuffled back to her bed, quickly changing out of her pajama pants into the long socks before putting on her denim.

Two shorts beeps rang from outside which Sade quickly followed to the window.

"He's here!"

"Yeah yeah." Val pushed her arm through her long sleeve. She made her way to the window, finger-combing her hair before looking out. She realized that it had snowed a tad more overnight.

There he was, standing right outside his car in a red jacket and similar pants from yesterday. Cupping his hands over his mouth he yelled out, "Morning!"  before sending a wave and smile.

"Morning! I'll be down in a minute, sorry!" She smiled apologetically before making her way back to her bed. 

"No rush, take your time!"

"Morning Josh!" Sade smiled

"Morning!"

"Val hurry the fuck up." Sade scolded, "The poor man is probably freezing."

"Let him." She jokingly shrugged as she tied on her boots. Classic docs: sturdy, fashionable, iconic.

"Val."

"I'm joking, I'm joking don't worry I'll be going now."

"Here." She handed Val her phone and bag, Val began making her way towards the door. "And word of advice, don't let him make any moves."

"Wasn't planning to.." She stopped in her tracks, raising her brow in confusion. "Why?"

"Saw the way he looked at you yesterday and as much as I'd like to set y'all up- dating musicians lead to nowhere."

"Good to know???" Val scrunched her brows, shaking her head. "I'll.. be going now.." she wandered off before making her way downstairs.
