Y/n's POV
•••
I sat there.. waiting patiently.
I thought-
I've never really used dating apps to meet people. Being honest with myself, I have majour trust issues, especially when it comes to strangers.
Walking I'm the distance, I see a tall figure come my way.
That must be him.
"Y/n?" He questions for me.
"Matt?"
He surrounds me in a welcoming hug.
"Great to finally meet you. You're- wow." He exclaims.
I smile.
"You're pretty wow too."
I sit back down in the booth.
"Ok, so I invited my friend Shawn to join us. I hope that's okay. He's bringing some chick named Marissa."
"Oh, well that's fine." I say.
I don't know what to expect from this night.
As long as nobody turns out to be a serial killer, I think I'll be alright.
I just have to trust.. three strangers.
Great.
The door opened once more.
Coming in our direction, another tall figure and a much smaller one walked over to us.
"Shawn, how ya been?" Matt asks him as he pulls him in for a tight squeeze.
"Great, man. Great. This is Marissa." He says introducing her.
I'm going to guess that the dude's name is Shawn.
He looks over at me and smiles.
I smile back.
Matt gave the pretty blonde a much better 'wow' stare than he gave me..

While waiting for our food to arrive, we sip on champagne and wine, listening to the boys laugh their lungs out at inside jokes that we don't understand.
"So.. what's your opinion on music?" Shawn asks Marissa.
There they sat, across from me and Matt.
"Meh." She shrugs.
I see the light in his eyes darken and fog.
Out of the silence, I speak, "I love music."
The light in his eyes and smile brightens up again.
"Really? Do you play anything?" He asks.
"Well.. I'm learning guitar but I sorta suck." I chuckle while bringing the wine glass to my red lips.
"Maybe one day I could teach you."
Marissa rolls her eyes.
"I'm done with this shit" she begins "I'm just going to go play video games."
"I love video games." Matt says.
"Yea? Wanna join me?"
"Fuck yes!"
Then.. there were two.
We sat.
Watching eachother take breaths and sips of alcohol.
"Don't worry about this, Shawn. I'll pay and just go home to watch Netflix." I chuckle.
He throws down a 20$ and gets up.
"I love Netflix."
