Y/n POV:
My heart starts racing immediately after I read his text. I have no idea why, but it does. What's wrong? I text back: "what? What's wrong?" He read it immediately after I sent. "Ross?" He read that too. "Preacher Man✝️🖤 is calling" god help me. "Hello?" I answer and obvious shake in my voice. "Hey." He simply answers. I don't know why, but it immediately calms me down. "I did some research. I'm sorry I know I'm seeing you tomorrow but this couldn't wait. I'm so sorry....Y/n? Are you seriously asleep? God your impossible. Well. I guess I'll talk to you tomorrow. DON'T YOU DARE OVER SLEEP. If you are somehow hearing this, I think we should meet at my apartment to talk about this. Well...talk about what I found. I know you have some stuff you wanna tell me, so I guess I gotta make it even right? Alright. Well. Sleep well. Bye Sunshine." *beep beep...beep beep...beep bee-* what the? What happened? Wait...wasn't I talking to Ross? What time is it? 10:56 a.m? WHAT THE. New text message from Preacher Man✝️🖤: 8:30 a.m : hey. By the way, you fell asleep last night. Don't worry it's okay. I think we should meet at my place today if that's cool with you. There we both can...ya know confess things I guess. Alright. Well I'll attach my address to my apartment after this. Hope you slept well Sunshine!" Well if that isn't just lovely. At least I don't have to dress to be in public. It's Ross after all. Do I care? Not really. Whatever. I should probably go....*ding* New Text Message from: Shawn🦒 hey. I love u. Thanks for last night. Next time u should stay though....💞. Tell Caucasian boy I said hi." I smile down at my phone and chuckle to myself. I immediately reply back: "Well maybe I will🌠 and I will tell ROSS that you said hi. You're a fellow Caucasian boy ya know." Responds back practically instantly. "HALF" I smirk down at my phone and reply "yeah yeah whatever you say bub" I shut my phone off and lay it down on my nightstand. "Where you headed too?" "AHHH." I whip my head around as I scream and I'm met with the face of the not so lovely Allison. I love her, but gosh dang she's got some bad timing. "Yo chill it's just me!" She says as if it's calming to me. "Girl! You can't do that!" I say while chuckling. "But to answer you question I'm going go see Ross. I need to tell him about...Shawn." "Why? Has he tried something with you?" She asks. "What? God no. He's just...he reminds me of someone. Someone I used to tell everything to and I just feel like I need to tell him. Plus he has something to tell me. I may have fallen asleep on him last night as he was about to tell me over the phone..." as soon as I say that sentence she busts out in laughter. "Oh shush." I say standing up and grabbing my clothes as I go change as put my contacts in. What am I wearing you ask? You probably don't care but I'm gonna tell you anyway. I'm wearing light wash jeans, and an old KC and the Sunshine Band sweatshirt I found thirsting a few days ago that I made slits all down the sleeves in. One, yeah u know ironic. I didn't plan it actually. Sunshine, gonna go see Ross who calls me Sunshine, is wear I didn't. 2, yes I know it's snowing in outside. I've never really been one of those people who gets cold. I just....don't. I say my goodbyes to Allison and head on out the door. Keys and backpack in hand, well...back, but you get it. I hop in the car and put on the radio. "God Save Our Young Blood" by BØRNS and Lana Del Ray, aka the mom I never had cake on the radio. I tap my foot and sing as I follow the gps to Ross's apartment. I arrive about 10 minutes and find his building, and eventually after some searching I find his room. I hear some faint singing and strumming as I start to knock on the door. "Coming!" I hear in reply. 20 seconds laters with fluffy brown haired Ross staring down in front of me. His ripped jeans and black t shirt stand out to me. "Come in!" He says as he lets out a deep breath. "So..." "ah ah ah!" I interrupt him. I'm not saying nor am I listening to anything until you play me what you were just singing. "Oh...you uh..you heard that?" "Why yes I did now PLAY." "Well. No arguing with that is there? It's a song I wrote a while ago...it's called Preacher Man. I know ironic that's what you call me. I have another one called Afterglow....I MIGHT play it for you later.-" "oh you definitely are." "How about this. I'll only play Afterglow for you if you listen to me after I play this." "That was the reason I came wasn't it?" I say with a smile on my face. I sit down next to him on his black leather couch as he starts to strum. "Hey Mr. Preacher man
I've been playing with a heart like a violin
I've been stumbling through the door after 6AM
Fix my soul so I don't lose a love again
Hey Mr. Preacher man
Can you help me get away from this life of sin?
I'm ashamed of the dark places I have been
Fix my soul so I don't lose a love again
I was driving through the city, just looking at myself
My conscious telling me that I should just turn this car around
But man, I got these demons and they telling me to go
Further into the night so the further I go
I'm down on my knees, yeah I'm paranoid
Don't wanna repeat what I did before
I wanna believe that there's something more
I wanna believe
Hey Mr. Preacher man
I've been playing with a heart like a violin
I've been stumbling through the door after 6AM
Fix my soul so I don't lose a love again
Hey Mr. Preacher man
Can you help me get away from this life of sin?
I'm ashamed of the dark places I have been
Fix my soul so I don't lose a love again
Blow a hundred miles an hour
And the wind is in my hair
But my mouth is just too damn dry to utter out a prayer
And the radio is blasting
Yeah, it's keeping me awake
'Cause I just gonna get back to her before it's just too late
I'm down on my knees, yeah I'm paranoid
Don't wanna repeat what I did before
I wanna believe that there's something more
I wanna believe
Hey Mr. Preacher man
I've been playing with a heart like a violin
I've been stumbling through the door after 6AM
Fix my soul so I don't lose a love again
Hey Mr. Preacher man
Can you help me get away from this life of sin?
I'm ashamed of the dark places I have been
Fix my soul so I don't lose a love again
Hey, yeah, hey, yeah" he finishes with a out of breath of huff and a smirk on his face. I clap slowly as if to say "wowza you actually can play." But before those words can actually come out fo my mouth, he interrupts me. "Ready to talk?"I KNOW YOURE ASKING HOW LONG AM I GONNA DRAG THIS OUT FOR!!
