Ron looked down at the paper in his hand, checking to make sure that he had the right address.  He wasn’t sure why he had offered to pick her up when he didn’t have a car but here he was, sitting in an Uber at 7:25.  He looked over at the Uber driver and sighed. “If she said to pick her up at 7:30, is it okay to show up five minutes early or should I wait?” When the Uber driver didn’t respond, he scrunched his mouth before pushing his hair back off his face and getting out of the car, moving up to knock on the door.

Robert hadn’t seen Delia as much as he wanted to, he’d be so swamped with work lately that even their passing glances in the hall were decreasing.  He remembered her saying that she wanted to get out more and while he had no problem staying in, he wanted to treat her to a night out.  Wearing one of his nicer suits, he made his way to her house, knowing that she wouldn’t be amused by his just showing up and telling her to dress up but knowing that he wouldn’t mind waiting for her.

Penny knocked softly on her mother’s door before entering her place. “Mum? It’s me, Penny.” She made a face, knowing how awkward she sounded. She looked around to see where her mom was, her brow furrowing slightly. “I know that I don’t usually do this, but, uh, I need some advice.”

“Look, I’m sorry, okay?” Delia said with a huff. She hated doing this. She hated anything too emotional. But right now, Delia had to suck up her pride and apologize. “I shouldn’t have used you for a little experiment. I still stand by the fact that I was pretty straight forward about it just being like...a thing. But I didn’t think about your feelings. So I’m sorry.” // @nightdrifters

“I mean, look at me! I look awesome, I can’t believe I got dressed up like this to just get stood up. With all this shitty luck with guys, I’m starting to think I’d be better off with women.” // @unxbelievers

Delia: So I was pretty drunk last night but you were nice. I normally don’t give my number out to random girls, or girls at all. But last night was chill, we should hang again.

Once she arrived she knocked on the door and waited for someone to answer.
