As soon as I turned around and saw him I got that feeling through my body again. It was just something about him that made me feel so happy.
"Sorry I took so long" he said apologetic
"It's fine, Zach told me you were trying to find something to wear"
"Yeah, he would say that" he said blushing
"So what are we going to do?" I asked changing the subject
"Well I'm starving, so do you wanna go get something to eat?"
"Sure" We began to walk to the pizza place down the street and there was awkward silence.
"So, how old are you?" he said breaking the ice
"18, you?" I asked
"I'm only 16.." he said nervously
"oh." I said worried that this could ruin everything.
"Well you know what they say age is just a number" He said smiling. I smiled and kept walking. We got to the pizza place and got food. We sat down and just talked about everything. We felt so comfortable with each other. After we ate we walked back to the van so he could take me home. We got to my house and I didn't want this night to end.
"So we have a day off tomorrow, I was thinking maybe we could hang out again" he asked hopefully
"I'd love too"
"Okay I'll text you in the morning and let you know a time" I smiled and nodded in agreement . There was something about him that made me nonstop smile every time I looked at him. I knew there was something special about the way he made me feel. I went up to my room and got ready for bed. As I went to lie down I got a text. It was from Riley saying
"I just wanted to say that tonight was one of the best nights of my life. I want you to know that I don't do this with every fan; actually I've never done this before. Consider yourself lucky:) Goodnight!"
For the first time in a while I fell asleep with a smile on my face. The next morning I woke up hoping that what had happened wasn't all a dream when suddenly my phone rang, it was Riley!
"Hello?"
"Hey!" he said
"Hey Riley, whats up?"
"Um, I was thinking we should go to that fair that's going on in your town"
"Yeah sure, I'll get ready"
"Okay, I'll be there around 4 sound good?"
"Yeah see ya then" after I hung up I called Kate freaking out. She seemed really pissed that this was happening to me and not her. I didn't care I wasn't letting anything or anyone ruin my day.
It was finally four and Riley showed up (on time). We made our way to the fair. We were having such a great time when it started to rain.
"I'm sorry I didn't know it was supposed to rain!" he said
"It's fine! We can make the best of it. Let's go check out the band" I suggested
"Okay"
As we were walking our arms kept touching and it took everything I had to not take his hand. The band was still playing so we watched them for a while. We were acting crazy, dancing singing, just having a great time. I was happy. For the first time in years I was actually happy. There was just something about the way he smiled that made me smile, the way he laughed that made me laugh. He was perfect. Sadly it was time to go home and time for him to go back on tour and I would most likely never see him again. We started to walk to the car and as we were walking he took my hand. I suddenly turned red and smiled. At that moment I knew that he was important to me and this could be the last time I would see him.
