Online relationship

Chapter 2

Ressie's POV
           I couldn't sleep last time. I was texting Dante the whole night. Good thing I didn't have school today.

Oh yeah, I learned his name. Dante James.

I feel like it's a bad boy name. Stereotyping names. Way to go Ressie, but it's true. His name makes him sound dangerous, mysterious, bad. Classic, for me to find attraction towards it.

I laid on my bed with my phone in my hands waiting for him to text me.

"I think your more into your phone than my company." I screamed forgetting that Orianna was here. She laughed and laid next to me

"Sooo... Who is it??!?!?" She asked

" What are you talking about?" I replied

"Oh don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about." I wasn't ready to tell her about Dante. I was afraid of her reaction.
" I saw you talking to Greg Jordan last night, a lot I might add." Did she forget she's the one who danced with him? I laughed at her
"Really? You were dancing with him last night. If anyone has something to spill then it's you Oreo." She blushed and looked away from me
"I... I don't know what you mean. I don't like him."

I rolled my eyes at this. I've known her since we were in 7th grade. I know when she tries to hide things and it never works out.
"Oreo!!!!!! YOU LIKE HIM! YOU LIKE GREG JORDAN! I KNEW IT!!!!!" Ha! I knew it! She has liked him since our freshman year, we've been friends with Ronny since then but Greg... He's a dick. He has moments where he's nice to around but I don't like him.

She heavily sighed.
"Rebecca... I know you don't like him-"
"Stop Oreo. If you like him, then I will deal with him."
"Ressie, it's not just like, I think I love him..."

Oh shit.

I did not see that coming. What she said next almost put me to my death bed
"He told me at the party that he's liked me since freshman year and he wants to go out.. On a date today. He even texted me this morning saying that he's picking me up at 7."

What the hell.

"What the fuck Orianna! That's in 3 hours! When the hell were you gonna tell me. We need to get you dolled up."
"Damn Ressie, calm down. You're freaking out more than me." She laughed at me.
The bitch laughed at me.
"Orianna Rose! I know you didn't laugh at me!"

"Uh oh..."

I tackled her and she fell on my bed This was so much fun. I tickled her until she started crying she was laughing so hard.
"Stop!!!! REBECCA JAY LEWIS I WILL CUT YOU IF YOU DON'T STOP" Her empty threats always made me laugh. I snickered and got off her so she could get ready.

* 1 hour later*
Orianna looked incredible. She was causal yet fancy. She was wearing a cute v-neck sweater with ripped jeans and high top converse and had her hair curled.
"You look amazing Oreo!!!!"
She blushed and looked at herself in the mirror
"You really think he'll like it?" She asked me looking at me through the mirror.
"If he doesn't, I reserve the right to knock some sense into him. You are gorgeous and an amazing person. If he doesn't like you, he's not the one."

She turned around and smiled at me and said "Thank you so much Reesie!!!! I really hope he's telling the truth and he actually likes me"
"I think he's a dick, but I hope he does too."
My phone buzzed and I saw that Dante had texted me. I smiled wide at it and blushed when I saw his text.
Dante- Good afternoon gorgeous.
Ressie- Good afternoon handsome.
Oh my goodness! He was so sexy. He had a buzz cut, brown eyes, has a rigid jaw line, and just plain sexy. Especially in his uniform.
Dante- What are you up babe?
BABE?!?! Heck yeah! Cue the blushing.
I completely forgot that Orianna was still here and quickly remembered when she yelled "WHO ARE YOU TEXTING REBECCA????"
"No one."
"I know when you're lying and your face is telling me that some guy said something cute to you. Your face is as red as a tomato."
Well that's just great.

I looked up at her eager face. I'm not ready to tell her, especially if it doesn't go anywhere.
"I.. I... Um..."  I couldn't think of a good lie to say to her luckily my door bell rang. Saved by the bell.

"OOOOO HE'S HERE! REBECCA, GREG IS HERE. What do I do? What do I do say? Do I look okay?" She kept rambling on and on until I covered her mouth with my hand.
" First thing you're going to do is go down the stairs and open the door. Act normal. Say hi to the guy. You look amazing." I looked at her unsure if I should take my hand away from her mouth

"I'm going to take my hand away now... Promise not to yell in my ear anymore?" She nodded and I let go of her mouth. We walked down the stairs and opened the door to see Greg Jordan. He had flowers in his hands and when he saw us, he smiled at her and gave them to her.

"You look incredible Orianna! " Greg said as he looked her up and down
He looked at me and said "I'll be gladly taking her off your hands Lewis." He grabbed her hand and she walked out the door with him.
"Have her back by midnight Jordan!"
He winked at me and hollered "yeah sure!" back to me.

Well now I can peacefully talk to Dante!!! I smiled really wide as I replied back to his text from earlier.
Ressie- I just watched my friend go on a date with the devil, what about you?
After I sent that, I saw that I had a text from Orianna. Ha! Was her date already bad? Oh I shouldn't be happy about that, oops.
Oreo- Don't think I forgot about your mystery man, you'll spill sooner than later. I'm not letting you off the hook that easily.

Oh damn.

Dante- The devil huh? She must really like him haha. I'm talking to this really cute woman. Oh... Ouch.
Ressie- She is really lucky to be talking to you.
Dante- I think I'm the lucky one. I like her a lot and I just started talking to her a few days ago.
He started talking to me a few days ago... I guess I shouldn't have assume that he wouldn't talk to other people. Damn.
Ressie-...
Dante- What's wrong Ressie?
Ressie- Nothing.
Dante- Ressie, I know when a girl says that, she's lying. What's wrong? You can trust me.
Ressie- I know I can. A few days of talking to you and I already trust you more than people I've known for years. Can I ask you a question?
Dante- Sure, what's up?
Ressie- Who's the girl you like?
Dante- You.
Oh snap. I did not see that coming..
Ressie- Really?
Dante- Yes really.
Dante- If you don't mind me saying, I trust you a lot more than other people too.
Ressie- 😊😊😊 I like you too.

HE LIKES ME BACK!!!!!!!! I fell on my bed really happy. I looked at the time and saw that it was 9:30pm. I texted Orianna and told her to lock the door behind her when she comes back to my house.
I texted Dante saying good night and that I will text him in the morning.
I couldn't have gone to sleep any happier...
