It's Saturday. 4:35 am to be exact. I've been up all night and I literally cannot sleep. I'm soo nervous. Where is this gonna go. What if he realizes he doesn't like me after all. What if I say something to piss him off. I'm so irritated just thinking about all the ways I could screw this up. I look at the time again and it's 6:32. HOW THE FUCK DID THE TIME JUST JUMP LIKE THAT. I decided to just go in the living room and lay on the couch. I turned on my favorite crime show, A Crime To Remember. I started to nod off. And then I opened my eyes and checked the time and it was 12:00pm. Jesus Christ. I walked up the steps and past the bathroom. I could hear my dad singing along to some gospel song in the shower. I assumed that my mom was in their room and just continued to mine. My phone started to vibrate and it was a call from Johnathon. I knew that if I answered that call it would fuck my head up more than it already was at the moment and I did NOT have the time for it. I decided that I might as well try to figure out what I'm going to wear. I start to get depressed when I realize that everything I own is black. "He's gonna think I'm a fucking weirdo" I say out loud. I sat down on my bed and started to think. What the fuck can I wear ? Then I remembered that I had a blue purple and white tie-dye shirt. I quickly went through my drawers and found it. Then I grabbed a pair of light blue ripped jeans that still had the tag on them. Then I Figured I'd just wear my black vans because... why not. I checked my phone and it was 1:30. I also seen a text from Christopher.
Christopher: "Heyy. Are we still on for today?"
Me: "Heyy. And yea of course."
Christopher: "okay great, I'll see you at 4 😉"
That wink just made me nervous as hell. I don't know why but it did. I decided to get in the shower now because I know I'll just be standing in there for like 45 minutes.

After I got dressed and everything it was 3:00. Christopher texted me for the address and I gave it to him. He told me he had to stop some where and then he'd be on his way. I decided to FaceTime Shania.
"It's gonna be fine, there's no need to be nervous." She said as we talked
" I don't know" I said "I feel like I'm gonna fuck it up or something."
" Just pretend you're going out with me." She suggested
"You look nothing like him" I said
" that's the pretend part Aaliyah." She said smartly
" Okay, okay. I'll try."
"Okay good. I'm really happy for you, I like seeing you doing things that are out of your comfort zone. I'm also happy that you're not fucking with Johnny because it's clear that's not going anywhere." She said with a smile
" Thank you, and you're right."
"Go. Have fun and I love you."
" I love you Too." I said and then we hung up. I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. "You look pretty good. Don't think about it too much, you're just hanging out with a friend. It's no big deal. You'll be okay." I said trying to convince myself even though my stomach was telling me otherwise. I hope he likes me. I'm so tired of being lonely. My phone vibrated and it's a text from Christopher saying that he's outside. Welp, there's no turning back now.
I go outside and I see a black Ford Fusion in front of my house. I open the car door and get in and Christopher is looking at me with a huge smile showing his beautiful white teeth.
"Wow, I never thought this day would come." He says
"Me neither honestly" I say nervously.
"You look really good." He says still smiling
"Thank you, you look good too." I say truthfully. He was wearing an all black nike track suit with all black 6's. I could tell he had on some type of cologne and the smell was intoxicating. I tried my hardest not to stare at him but it was extremely hard. "Why the hell does he want to be around me?" I thought to myself.
"So how was your day?" He asks as he pulls off
"It was pretty good, thank you for asking. How was yours?"
"It was okay. I started studying for the test I told you about." He says after licking his lips. I just realized I was staring at him again. Fuck.
" That's good" I said
"Why are you being so quiet?" He asks after glancing at me and looking back at the road.
"Do you want me to be honest?" I ask
" Of course."
"I'm really nervous."
"Why?" He says chuckling
"I don't usually meet up with people I meet online. You could Lowkey be a murderer." If he murdered me right now I would not be mad. I'd be honored to be murdered by someone this sexy.
"I promise you I'm not a murderer." He says after laughing a bit. I could feel myself getting more comfortable with him as we talked more. Everything he said and did was so smooth. His voice sent chills up my spine and I loved it. I noticed that we got on the highway.
"Where are we going?" I asked
"I'm taking you back to my city and then we're gonna do something there."
"What are we doing there?"
"Nunya Business" he says
"Wowwww. Are you sure you're not taking me to my death?" I say looking at him with a serious face.
"Yes Aaliyah, I'm sure." He says with a smile
" Just Checkingggg." I say looking back at the road.
