The sun was just setting as willow and her dad were sitting in the living room. Her dad was watching TV and she was on her phone messing around on f*******:. Her purple hair coming down over her face as she was more interested in her phone. She was just out to set her phone down and ask her dad what was for dinner when she got a message on messenger. She had never seen this person before, so she decided to check out his profile. When she logged on she realize in the photo, she had seen him before, and it was someone she had a crush on for awhile. His long brown hair, gorgeous brown eyes, nice lengthy beard, he had worn a hat in the photo and he was standing on his porch. She asked herself "Why out of all people is he messaging me?" It took her a moment to reply back to the handsome man that had messaged her. After my heart finished beating out of my chest and my hands stopped shaking I replied to the handsome mans picture before me. "Hey what's up" he had sent me. "Nothing much just watching TV wbu?" I replied. "Just laying in bed figured I would message you" he replied back. "Not to be mean but why?" I asked hoping not to sound rude. "Because I thought you were cute, I wouldn't mind getting to know if you don't care?" he answered. "No I don't mind at all" as I replied, trying not to scream to alarm my dad. You see my dad doesn't really or hasn't really liked the men I have dated which haven't been a lot. I was more of the outcast in school. I definitely didn't take no s**t from people either, but had my enemies as well. Not many guys liked me in high school. you see I always had a confidence issue but never really showed it. I kind of fit in with everybody. My main group of friends were the nerdy, emo's as we called it. Having this type of guy to message me and knowing he doesn't live to far from me is not normal. Why would someone like me. I change my hair color faster than the season's do, i'm a little bit on the bigger side more plus size, blue eyes and 5'6. I had more of and edgier style which I liked, but most people didn't. I also tended to lean towards the guys that didn't work but always drove. I mean I kind of had and understanding but I didn't see a big deal with someone not working and my dad always go upset. It was always the same questions. Does he work? Does he drive, Where does he live? and so on. After we learned a little bit about each other like the basics, favorite color, what do we do for a living, what are our goals in life, you know the normal. It just kind of felt like we already knew each other. Honestly I feel like I could fall head over heels for this guy even though I just met him; But is it bad to fall for a guy you just met? See the thing is I had seen this guy before mainly on friendly dating sites but never had the courage to talk to him. I'm just glad he decided to message me first or it wouldn't have happened. we continued to talk and the questions started to get a little more personal, more on the subject of our dating life. "So.. Do you like bowling?" he asked me. "Yeah, I actually I work at a bowling alley" I replied. "really? which one?" he answered. "The one on smith street." I replied back to him. "Really?!? I go there all the time, I'm surprised I haven't seen you at all" he answered. "Yeah, I actually like it, everyone is like family and I couldn't ask for a better job" I messaged him back. "Well in that case, would you like to go out with me on a date. Maybe go bowling and out to dinner" he asked. I sat there and thought about it part of me wanted to say yes, the other half was screaming run away, you just met the guy. Little did I know I should have just went with my gut feeling and stayed home. "Yes, I would love to go out with you" I replied, and screamed a little. "That makes me so happy, I will pick you up around, say tomorrow at 4:00pm?" he asked me "Yes, that's perfect" I replied. With that said, we said our goodbyes and I told my dad that I had a date for tomorrow and he took it well but I know he wanted to meet him before we went out; so he could grill him to death. I mean I know my dad means well but it could get embarrassing sometimes. Which I know he is trying to protect me and make sure I'm safe and I'm grateful for that. I became so excited I instantly messaged my best friend Sam, she has been there through everything I definitely couldn't imagine my life without her. "Girl, guess what?" I instantly messaged her "Girl, tell me" Sam replied instantly ready for me to spill the beans. "I got a date for tomorrow " I answered "b***h! with who?" she exclaimed I laughed to myself for a bit "Josh masters" I replied back. "who?" she answered. I told her to give me a second and I sent her his profile and about 10 minutes later she messages me, I knew what she was doing she was scoping him out, making sure he was the one, making sure he was cute and basically bein the FBI. "Ohhh girl he cute! you need me to go with you? just in case you know I need to throat punch him?" she replied joking. "As tempting as that sounds, no I will save that for the second date" I laughed at the text messages "Awh well damn I was hoping for a good throat jab" she said back. "I know, but like I said we can save that for the second date, I will text you and let you know how everything goes" I replied "Okay b***h, you better let me know" she answered back jokingly. As that was said I laughed and we said our last text for the night. Finally dinner was ready and I went into the kitchen and grabbed a plate. My dad had cooked, grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, green beans, corn, and cheese bread I love it when he cooks cause its so good. After we both got our food we went our separate ways. Which I know what your thinking, why don't we eat together? good question, we used to but ever since my siblings moved out and we all started doing our things it just stopped. I went into my bed room sat my plate on the bed and go to turn on my TV. I hear my dog come into the room, I look at him and see him eyeing my plate. "You better stay away from my plate" I looked at him serious. He just sat there and I turned around and put on my favorite movie, A crown for Christmas. As I turn back around I see Ruffin grabbing a piece of my chicken. Before I could get to him was already gone "Damn it Ruffin, I was going to eat that, now I got to go get another piece and diddy has probably ate all the good parts!" I exclaimed. I walked back to the kitchen and got another leg and went back to the room, I decided to leave my plate on the bed since Ruffin was in the living room with my dad. I went back to my room changed into one of my big t-shirts and sat up in my bed to eat. As soon as I was done I went to the kitchen, put my scraps in the trash and put my dishes in the dishwasher. I asked my dad was he done so I could put the food up and he said yeah he was done. As soon as I finished with the food, I went to bed to get ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow was the day I had my date with josh I was so nervous I didn't know If I could sleep. I kept going through my head with all the scenarios that could happen. Was he really as sweet as he says he was? was he gonna kidnap me? Would he Kill me? all these things were running through my head. I have watched way to much ID channel with my dad, soon I finally fell asleep excited about the events that were going to unfold for tomorrow.
