I was so nervous I honestly thought that Xia was gonna walk out and leave me there looking dumb. In the end she stayed. She stayed and she listened to everything I had to say. I didn't want to fuck things up with her, there's just something about her. Tonight made me realize that she's different and I was scared. Scared that I would rush in too fast and something would happen and I would fuck it up. I just don't want the past to repeat itself. I wanted to be better, for her.

I looked up at her hand placed on top of mine. Her thumb rubbing circles on the top of my hand, comforting me. She made me feel.....safe. Safe as in I could confide in her and truly tell her how I feel without being judged or being told to "man up". Growing up we were taught to not show too many emotions and not to let your guard down, but holding shit in all the time gets old quick. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not no bitch. But niggas have feelings too.

I looked up at her face to see her giving me a bright smile and instantly I smiled back. You just couldn't help but smile when you looked at her.

"C'mon lets get out of here, no down faces. I had so much fun being out with you, nothing could ruin that." She said. I nodded my head and she pulled me up from the table by my hand. I followed behind her as she lead me out the restaurant. I took my phone of from back pocket with my free hand and took a photo of her holding my hand. I wanted to be like one of those cheesy photos that girls always take of them holding someone's hand. Y'all know what I'm talking about. I grinned looking at the picture then locked my phone and put it back in my pocket.

"Thank you guys for the food and great service!" Xia waved at the guy at the front desk then gave him a thumbs up. He waved at us as we walked out the door to my car. I laughed at her shaking my head, she was odd as hell sometimes. I opened the passenger side door for Xia letting her in then slipping in on the other side. We buckled our seatbelts and drove off.

As we approached her house I let out a breath. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want to spend more time with her. I pulled up in front of her house and parked.

"I meant it when I said I enjoyed being out with you. You don't have to worry bout a thing." She looked over at me.

"I know, I enjoyed it too. You're easy to talk to and I liked that."

She smiled. I'd kill to see that face everyday. I'm sounding very whipped right now...She reached for the door handle and opened to door to get out. She was halfway out the door before she turned back around and sat back down. Then she leaned over and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Goodnight.....Friend." She winked and I watched as she left my car and walked into her house. When she was inside I sighed and put my hands over my face. Fuck. I wanted to get to know her better and take things slow of course, but I already knew that this "Friend" shit was gonna kill me.

I took my hands down and got ready to drive off but then I got a notification on my phone. I rushed to look at it thinking that it would be Xia but when I looked at it I saw it was a DM on instagram. And it was from the last person I wanted it to be from.

@Ashalvano: Hey...can we talk?
