Rydel's POV:"Can we talk?"He asks, with one hand behind his head, scratching the back of his neck nervously...
I nod, and move out of the way, so that he could walk in.
Ratliff takes a seat on the swivel chair, at my computer desk, whilst I sit at the foot of my bed.
"what is it?"I ask, curious towards what he wanted to talk to me about.
"Ok, uhm... I'll just get to the point."He starts. "Why have you been, ignoring me?"
"What do you mean, by ignoring you?"I ask, acting as I had no clue, as to what he was talking about.
"Rydel, we haven't talk in 3 days, which is really weird since were best friends and we usually talk everyday."
That was true. I have been ignoring Ratliff. I actually don't know why I have been. Part of it is because of the whole Kelly situation, but the other part..I'm not really sure of.
I do miss talking to Ratliff. He gave the best advice and I kinda needed some because of this whole Mark thing.
"I've just been...busy."I semi-lied. I was busy with the whole dinner & grounding thing.
Ratliff nods.
There was a moment of silence.
"So who's the guy?"Ratliff unexpectedly asks.
"What guy?"I ask, not knowing who he was referring to.
"The guy from last night... That 'Mike' character..."
I chuckle.
"Well, that 'Mike Character'"I say using his words. "Is one of my friends."
"He seemed...eh."Ratliff said shrugging.
"And what's that supposed to mean?"I ask.
"It means that he was... okay?"He said in more of a statement than a question, whilst looking at me.
"He's a cool guy, Ell."I assure him.
"Hope so..."he replies. "He just doesn't seen like...your type, I guess."
"Maybe I can't have my type.."I say in a low tone, but loud enough for him to hear.
Then again, there was a moment of silence before a knock on the door broke it.
"Come in."I tell the person.
In walks Rocky.
"Uhm, guys there's a band meeting downstairs right now."Rocky informs us.
"So with that being said, we should be having a band practice, right now."Riker announced.
We just got the news that there was a gig open for us in a few days, so we'll have to rehearse like crazy for the next few days, to make sure it's perfect.
It's summer time
And you are all that's on my mind
Everyday
It seems like we
Could stay up and talk through the night
Oh, what do you say?
Say you'll stay
I just keep on wishing everyday
No more running around
Running around
(No more running around, no no)
(No more running around, no no)
Running around
Running around
Just say you'll stay
Ramona's hair
(Ramona's hair)
She looks so cute in the clothes she wears
(Yep so cute man)
Her lips so sweet
(Her lips so sweet)
And when I walk her to her door
I'm thinking, gee
Just give me one more kiss
I'll beg you please
Say you'll stay
I just keep on wishing everyday
No more running around
Running around
(No more running around, no no)
(No more running around, no no)
Running around
Running around
Just say you'll stay
And who knows
When we are together, you-
Ross sings before being interrupted by the ringing of my phone.
'Sorry' I mouth, before stepping out of the room.
"Hello?"I answer the phone, not even looking at the Caller ID.
"Hey, Delly."I could recognize that voice anywhere. It was Mike.
"Hey Mike, what's up?"I ask.
"So, I was thinking I'd pick you up in about a hour or 2?"he asks.
"Sure, I should probably be done band practice by then.."I tell him.
"Cool..see you then."He says before hanging up.
I can't wait for tonight.
