Unsaved Contact:
Hey Dan, it's Ry. I have a new number.

Me:
Dan? I'm sorry, I think you've got the wrong number.

Unsaved Contact:
You sure? I've got my friend Dan saved as 707-24.. oh.

Me:
Yeah, that's not me. Not even my area code as a matter of fact.. sorry.

Unsaved Contact:
Oh shit, my bad.

Me:
It's fine.

Unsaved Contact:
Yeah...

Me:
Well. Ain't this awkward?

Unsaved Contact:
I guess. While we're here, what's your name?

Me:
Do you really think I'm gonna tell a total stranger my name? How about no.

Unsaved Contact:
Come on.. I'll tell you mine. I'm Ryan.

Me:
Okay..? Just because you told me yours, that doesn't mean I'm telling you mine. Sorry bro.

Unsaved Contact:
Come on! I doubt we're gonna hunt each other down.

Me:
Fine. You've got a point.

Unsaved Contact:
Soo..?

Me:
I'm y/n. Lame, huh?

Unsaved Contact:
Not lame! That's a cool name.

Me:
You're joking. I hate my name so much.

Unsaved Contact:
I'm not joking, actually.

Me:
Oh.. that was sweet of you. Thanks I guess?

Unsaved Contact:
I'm saving your number. You're now officially "y/n🌚" in my contacts.

Me:
Oh dang. The moon emoji is the greatest tbh. Lemme save you as.. "Ryan😎"

Ryan😎:
Sweet. That's the emoji that describes me the best.

Me:
If I had one that described me, it'd be 😴

Ryan😎:
I'm assuming you're a heavy sleeper..😂

Me:
Yup. y/n y/l/n. You?

Ryan😎:
Ryan Ross.

Me:
Really? I've heard that name before.

Ryan😎:
I've been in the music business. It's been one hell of a ride.

Me:
I think I know you, I've heard a song of yours by a band. It was The Young Veins or something.. right?

Ryan😎:
Yeah. I was also in another band. I left it back in '09.

Me:
Was it famous?

Ryan😎:
Hell yeah, but idk. It felt weird? We wrote this one album and I just wanted to write more of it. My old pal and I guess you could say "ex" didn't want to write that style of music so I left with another one of my friends to make TYV. We still talk.

Me:
Wait a minute, wasn't it that Panic at the Party band?

Ryan😎:
Close enough. And yeah. I'd rather not talk about it.

Me:
Hey, sorry to kill the text fest.. but over here it's 12:56 in the morning, tomorrow I have work. Text you tomorrow?

Ryan😎:
Sure. Talk to you later, y/n

Me:
Goodnight Ryan.🌙
