"So, are you ready to go out with Ryan?" Colin asked
"Oh god. Colin, this is going to be an interesting night" I said
"Why" He laughed
"So, this kid failed to mention, until 5 MINUTES AGO. That this is not just me and him. But it's going to be me, him, John, and a girl John asked to dinner" I said
"Oh no" Colin said
"It's Carly. She's nice. But this is going to be so awkward. I was going to try and look nice too. I don't think I want to now" I laughed
"Is that what you are wearing?" Colin asked
"Yup" I nodded
"That's fine" Colin said
"Thanks bud. He's on his way too. So I don't even have time to change if I wanted to" I shrugged
He laughed and went back to what he was doing. I got a text saying he was here and i walked outside. Hopping in the passenger seat Ryan smiled at me.
"Hey" He said
"Hey" I replied
"You look nice" He smiled
"Thank you" I said back
We talked a little bit on the way to the restaurant and it was kinda awkward. He didn't look at me and when he did it was a quick glance. Also the air is just...awkward. Pulling up to the restaurant, we walked in and John and Carly were already there. They were sitting across from each other in a booth. Then Ryan sat next to John. So I sat next to Carly and she smiled at me. We all chatted a bit, and Carly didn't talk much. Ryan and John were mostly talking to themselves. I chimed in a hand full of times. We all ordered food and decided against dessert.
"So you beat Kate last night" Ryan said
"Only by like a tenth of a second" I shrugged
"How do you two do when the other wins?" Ryan asked
"Cause you're competitive as shit" John laughed
I don't know how he knows that...
"We aren't competitive against each other. Just other people. Sometimes." I chuckled
John and Ryan looked at each other then said they were going to the bathroom. I wonder why they are going at the same time.
"So, how are you enjoying this dinner" I laughed
"Honestly. It's awkward. So was the drive" She said
"Same here." I laughed
"I mean, when John asked me to dinner he said it was going to be with you and Ryan. And honestly I just came to meet you" She said and her face got red
"Aww. That's sweet. I thought it was just me and Ryan till he said he was on his way. He was like oh by the way" I laughed
"You are legit my barrel racing idol. And Kate. And you guys are friends and i love it. I wish I was that good" She smiled
"You're too sweet" I smiled
"Uhm. I know you will probably say no. But do you have any tips on getting closer to the barrels?" Carly asked
"I can do you better then tips. Kate and I used to do like camp things. You can come practice with us. I got the okay from my ranch owner, who's also my boss. To do our little Barrel racing training thing" I said
"OMG. I would love that. I might die from being with both of you cause.. idols. Even though we are the same age. But still" She smiled
"Well, I'll talk to Kate and let you know" I smiled
