By Accident ~ Chris Sturniolo

Chapter 3

I text Chris out of curiosity.

Ryland: So your famous and a triplet? So many mysteries.

Chris: I though that was obvious well at least the triplet part.

Ryland: I love a man of mystery. But a couple things I need to know, 1. How old are you?

Chris: 18? Why?

Ryland: Just making sure your of age. Just so you know I'm 20-

Chris: A woman of mystery.

"Dude she's 20?"

"Nick get out of here why are you snooping so much?"

"I wonder if she'll enjoy dating a child."

"Nicolas Sturniolo I'm gonna beat your ass."

Nick runs away.

Chris: Do you want to go out for dinner tonight?

Ryland: Are you able to drive young one?

Chris: Haha funny. And no-

Ryland: Ha- and yes I would. Need me to pick you up?

Chris: Maybe-

Ryland: Alright text me ur address lol

I knew a guy that adorable would have his flaws. I get ready. After I'm done, I grab my shit and hop in my car.

"So your new girl is coming here?"

"Yeah?"

"I could of just dropped you off."

"What no! That's pathetic."

"You know what is even worse? Having your female date pick you up."

I knock on the door trying not to look too excited. We had only met this morning, but it truly feels like I've known him forever.

"Hey there." Nick answers the door.

"Hi! Is Chris there?"

Chris runs out of the kitchen.
"Hey Ryland. You look.. gorgeous."

I blush a little. "Thanks. You ready to go?"

"Not completely, do you want to come in?"

"Sure." I step into the house taking off my vans at the door. Chris leads the way as I follow.

"So this is Matt and Nick."

I'm not great at meeting people, but for some reason it just came easy with Chris. Even though Matt and Nick were his brothers it still caused me a bit of anxiety so I grabbed Chris's arm and he smiled at me.

"Hey Ryland! Chris won't stop talking about you-"

"Matt! Shut up-"

I chuckled a bit and looked at the floor. I don't really know how to communicate with people, and I think Chris could tell.

"Oh Ryland," He takes my hand, "Let me show you something really quick."

He takes me in his room.
"Sorry, I could tell you were freaking out a bit."

"Just a little bit."

"I guessing you have a bit of social anxiety."

"Yup. And for some reason I'm studying Physiology." I sit on his bed.

Chris comes and sits next to me.
"How come meeting me wasn't a problem though?"

"Honestly, I have no clue. It's even more strange that I'm not nervous because last time I went on a date was freshman year-"

"Well, if that's the case.. how about we just chill here?"

"Oh! That actually sounds pretty cool."

"Like we can attempt to make food and maybe I can help you get to know my brothers and I."

I smile at him. "Let's do it."
