She decided to go sit by a tree and she finds there is a boy, he talks to her and gives her a nickname of Ruby, coincidentally he sings her a song called 'Ruby.' He doesn't get a chance to finish his song so he invites her over at his house at 5:00.
(*â»-â»*)
After my encounter with Tyler my mind wouldn't shut off. And I know it's 'school' so my mind ain't supposed to shut off, but it wouldn't shut off about Tyler.
His beautiful voice was.... astonishing.
I was so excited when the final bell rang. I couldn't wait to hear the rest of the song, maybe that'll help me stop thinking about him.
Wait....
I shut my locker and begin to walk to the front entrance.
I don't have his address. GOD I'M STUPID!
"Wait up!" I heard a voice from behind me. I turn my head to see Tyler running up behind me. "I forgot to give you my address. Why don't I just walk you there?"
I nodded but kept my head high so he wouldn't tell that I was shy. Or that I cared or something.
"Hmm." He hummed softly while smiling. He began to walk, and I slowly walked behind him.
After a few seconds he turned his head to look behind him, and quickly grabbed my wrist and pulled me to his side. It wasn't closely to his side, but it was enough for me to blush. I look down.
Damn it. YOU DON'T LOOK DOWN GIRL!
I beat myself up about it, but kept silent as we walked. His hand was still on my wrist, and it wasn't like he was keeping me there he just didn't seem to want to let go.
When we arrived at his house he grinned greatly as he ran up to the front door.
He took his keys and began to unlock the door but paused. He turned his head to me.
"See, um, my parents are very embarrassing and so are my siblings. So just- just do what I do and we can avoid them." He waited for me to nod before continuing unlocking the door.
He opened the door slowly and put his arm out in front of me so I wouldn't go in. He then enter the house and looked around.
He sighed with relief before he quickly grabbed my hand...
M-my hand?
...and ran my into the basement.
Wait... the basement?!
"This is my room." He smiles and plops down on his bed.
"Oh thank god." I let out a sigh of relief.
"What?" He asks, his eyebrows furrowed.
"N-nothing." I smile and he pats the bed next to him.
"So, I have a piano and an ukulele. Which one should I play first?" He says as I sit a few inches away from him on the bed. For safety reasons.
I don't know this man.
I smile.
But I love him already.
"Ruby?" He tilted his head into my eye view.
"Stop calling me Ruby it's Sophia." I playfully roll my eyes and smile.
"Piano or ukulele?" He asks again. And I absentmindedly say Piano. "Oh goody! I love the piano. But I also love the ukulele don't get me wrong."
He gets up and walks over to the piano in the corner of his room. He actually has a pretty big room.
He begins playing notes and chords and then starts singing. I immediately recognized it as Ruby.
"You're an angel fallen down
won't you tell us of the clouds
You have fallen from the sky.
How high? How high?
You're an angel fallen down
Won't you tell us of the clouds"
Oh, so he must've played where he left off.
"You have fallen from the sky.
How high? How high?"
Wow. He starts playing a bit of an instrumental before slowing down his playing and relaxing his shoulders.
"You're true and pure."
He does something with his notes that are so addicting to hear. It's like a seesaw.
"You hold the cure
We're all diseased
But you hold the key"
He holds 'key' out before making his voice more muffled as if he was whispering, or maybe holding back tears?
"You're an angel fallen down, won't you tell us of the clouds,
You have fallen from the sky
How high? How hi-"
His voice gets so quiet it's inaudible at the end, that's when he turns around with a big smile on his face.
"That's not the end, but you get the idea." He sits up and walks over to the bed and plops down but this time he's laying down.
I stand there awkwardly not really knowing what to do.
He then props himself up on his elbows.
"You're pretty." He smiles as he adjusts himself. I look down and blush a little before whispering:
"Okay." I chuckle awkwardly. That makes him laugh, and he sits up on his bed.
"Just a simple 'okay?'" He smiles widely.
"Well, what do you want me to answer?" My voice gets a little louder but not to loud.
"I don't know, thank you?" He shrugs. I nod.
"Thank you."
"Can I get your number?" He asks out of the blue.
"Um, sure." I say, as I take my phone from my purse. "What's your number?"
"What? No, you have to give me your number so I know that I'll hear back from you."
"So what you think I'm going to get your number and delete it afterwards?" I chuckle slightly.
"It's happened before." He shrugs.
"Well, I won't. But okay, give me your phone." I reach my hand out and he excitedly pulls it out of his pocket.
I put my contacts in there and then change the name to 'Rubyð' I'm not sure why that emoji but it looked cool.
"Thanks." He says as he grabs his phone and immediately deletes the emoji and puts a 'â¤ï¸' instead. "I really like the name Ruby." He shrugs and smiles.
He sends a 'hello' to my number and my phone goes off.
Tyler: wyd?
Me: what do you mean? I'm literally right in front of you?
Tyler: can I kiss you?
I look up from my phone to see him smiling slightly and he stand up from his bed.
"Okay." I whisper, and he eyes light up. He steps a little closer, and leans closer to my face.
He lightly places a kiss on them, before pulling away. I look intently into his eyes and he looks into mine, his face becoming more serious again.
He tilts his head and goes in for another kiss, this time a longer one. He grabs my cheeks, and pulls me closer to him.
He starts pulling me backwards with him to his bed but I quickly pull away.
He gives me a face of confusion before in shock.
"Oh, I'm sorry I got carried away." He put his hand in a fist and lightly hit his leg.
"It's ok." I say as I turn around. "I should probably go."
"Coffee tomorrow?" He asks, and I turn around.
"Yeah, that sounds nice."
"I'll text you."
"Okay." I whisper once again, before going up the steps.
Tyler helped me out without his family seeing and I went home, it was surprisingly close to his house. I was the next street over.
