He Could Be the One

“Starbucks, am I missing something?” Matt asked, sounding a bit confused.
“Ya’ll met already?” Frank asked.
“Well not exactly met but I saw these guys at Starbucks earlier today when Matt and I were hanging out.”
“Not just that, you also flirted with us.” said the ginger teasingly.
I felt my face heat up. “I wasn’t flirting!”
“Awh look she’s blushing, how cute.”
I glared at the blonde then slowly looked over at the brunette from before and saw him chuckling his cute butt off. I walked up to him and looked him in the face, or at least tried to, since he was much taller than me.
“What are you laughing about huh? If I remember correctly, you blushed at Starbucks.”
He stopped smiling and looked down at me. “I didn’t blush.”
“Yes you did, don’t lie.”
“No I didn’t and I’m not lying.”
“Yeah uh.”
“Nuh uh.”
I glared at him as he glared at me back. Wow his eyes are gorgeous….whoa what the fuck am I saying? I then felt someone slowly pull me away from the brunette. I turned to see who it was and saw Axel shaking his head. What the hell is his problem?
“Jonathan, Caleb, Marc, Kyle, and Austin I apologize for my lover’s behavior.”
“Lover?” asked the brunette.
I punched Axel in the chest as hard as I could. “For the last time Alexander, I’m not your dang lover!”
“Don’t call me Alexander, Claire!”
I gasped. “How dare you sir?!”
“How dare you?!”
I stuck my tongue out Axel and turned my back to him.
“Are they always like this?” Austin asked Matt.
“Dude, you haven’t seen anything yet.”
Austin nodded as his band mates tried to hold back from laughing.
“Alright y then, so I’m guessing you three have names right?” Toma asked trying to change the subject.
The blonde nodded. “Yep, I’m Kyle Burns.”
“I’m Caleb Turman.” said the ginger, flashing a smile.
“What about you?” I asked the brunette.
“My name’s Jonathan Cook, I’m guessing yours is Claire?”
“Yes but I prefer to go by Sevie Rae. I’m not a fan of my real name.”
“Caleb, Jonathan, Kyle nice to meet you. I’m Toma.”
“And I’m Claudia. How about we all head over to the kitchen and eat before the food gets cold?” Everyone agreed as they headed towards the kitchen and took a seat at the dining table, where the food had already been set. I sat in between Matt and Claudia, while Jonathan sat directly across from me. As we all ate, jokes and random conversations were talked about across the entire table. I couldn’t help but laugh at Kyle and Austin’s crazy nonsense. They stood out the most at our get together. I noticed that Claudia and Caleb couldn’t take their eyes off each other and at one point during the loud talking, I glanced over at Jonathan and caught him looking at me, he looked away soon after of course. I honestly couldn’t help but blush and smile. What the fuck is wrong with you Sevie? You just met the guy!
Suddenly I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I was done eating already so I just excused myself from the table and headed out to the patio. I pulled out my phone and saw that I had gotten a text message.
From: Barakitty<3
Sevister! Call me! I miss you my lover!
I sighed and smiled. What’s up with everyone calling me their lover? I decide to grant his wish. After two rings, someone finally answered.
“Sevister!”
“Barakitty!”
“Hoe, I missed you.”
“I know. I missed you too Debbie.”
“Rian told me you moved to Dallas, is that true?”
“Yea but not just me, everyone did.”
“”How come?”
“You’re seriously gonna ask me that?”
“Oh right, now I gotcha.”
“Yea……so uh how is he anyway?”
“You want to ask him yourself?”
“Ah, no that’s ok. Forget I even asked.”
There was an awkward silence until he finally broke it.
“You’re still not over him are you?”
I sighed deeply. “Not in the slightest bit.”
“I know that he’s my best friend and all but what he did to you was pretty fucking low, even for him.”
“Yea I know, you’ve told me this before Jack.”
“Didn’t I also tell you not to go out with him because you’d end up getting hurt?”
“Yea you did. Alright already enough with the lecture, you’re starting to sound like a certain drummer.”
“Hey can you blame us though, you’re like a little sister to us.”
I smiled. Awh Jack!
“Sev, I want you to promise me you’ll try to forget about him.”
“I promise Jack.”
“Alright then, I’ll call you soon. I have to get back to rehearsals and ‘he who shall not be named’ is coming.”
“Lord Voldemort?”
He gasped. “You’re not supposed to say his name dumbass!”
I giggled. “Sorry but I mean come on he might as well be ‘The dark Lord’.”
“True. Love you Sevister.”
“Love you too Barakitty.”
I then hung up and sighed deeply.
“Everything ok?”
I turned around and saw Jonathan standing there, with his hands in his pockets, with a look full of concern.
“How much of that did you hear?”
“Just the whole Lord Voldemort stuff and when you sighed. Who’s Barakitty?”
“Oh ok and just a friend of mine.” Thank god he didn’t hear anything else.
“So… IS everything ok?”
“Uh…it’s complicated I guess you could say.”
“Ah ok.”
“Hey uh I want to apologize about earlier, I didn’t mean to go off on you like that.”
He shook his head and smiled. “It’s ok, don’t worry about it. If anyone should apologize, it should be Caleb. He was the one that started it.”
I giggled. “Point taken.”
He held out his hand. “Wanna start over?”
I looked at his hand, smiled, and nodded. “I’d really like that.”
He smiled back. “Hi I’m Jonathan.”
“Nice to meet you Jonathan, I’m Sevie.” I said taking a firm grip on his hand. His hand is so warm.
He then released my hand and placed his back in his pocket.
“So tell me about yourself Sevie.”
“Well what exactly would you like to know?”
“Hmmm…how old are you?”
“21.”
“When’s your birthday?”
“September 25th.”
“Do you have any siblings?”
“Yep, I have two younger brothers. One’s 18 while the other is 6.”
“I see. So how did everyone in the band meet?”
“Let’s see, I’ve known Axel and Matt since like birth pretty much, we then met Claudia in 6th grade, Toma we met in freshman year of high school, and lastly Toma introduced the rest of us to Frank and Ray since they went to the same college.”
“Gotcha.”
Jonathan and I continued to talk non-stop. It felt like a game of 20 questions but just talking to him made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Why does he make me feel this way? We just met but he makes it seem like we’ve known each other for years. I brushed off the thought and just enjoyed the moment we were having. During the middle of our conversation, I received a text from Claudia.
From: Cloud :)
You are aware of the fact that the other guys are gone and that it’s almost 1 in the morning, right?
“What?!”
“What’s wrong?”
I looked up at Jonathan and noticed that his face was really close to mine. Ah I’m melting<3
“Oh uh…ye-yea your friends left and it’s one in the morning…”
“Are you serious?!”
I nodded as he ran his hands through his hair. “Guess that means you’re leaving right?” Please say no!
He sighed and looked at me. “Unfortunately yes but to be honest, I really don’t want to.” He then pouted. Oh good lord, he’s so fucking cute! >.<
“I understand, let me walk you to the door.”
We stepped back inside the house and noticed that it was completely quiet. Creepy much….
“Did everyone go to bed already?” Jonathan asked.
“Seems like it.”
When we got to the front door, we both stepped out and stood on the porch. We stood in awkward silence until fine I broke it.
“So…”
“Yea?”
I couldn’t help but giggle. He smiled which only made me blush.
“What’s so funny?”
“I don’t know, I’m just weird like that. Sorry.”
“Don’t be, being weird is pretty awesome in my book.”
“Heh if you say so.”
“I do.” Awh shucks! >///<
“Well then, I guess I’ll see you around?”
“Let’s hope.”
“Oh wait; uh can I see your phone?”
He nodded and pulled out his phone from his pocket, handing it over to me. I punched in my number and saved it before handing it back to him with a smile.
“There you can call or text me anytime.”
“Thanks, you saved me from asking.”
I couldn’t help but blush even more. Damn it, I should’ve waited!
“Seems fair to give you my number since you gave me yours.”
I giggled and handed him my phone. He pressed a few buttons then handed it back. We stood there in awkward silence, again, only this time he spoke up.
“It’s really getting late so uh I’m gonna go now.”
I nodded. “Alright, text me when you get home so I don’t worry.”
He chuckled and leaned down, placing a kiss on my cheek. Holy titty fuck! “Alright I will. See ya Sevie.”
He then walked over to a black pickup truck that sat in the driveway. How the fuck did I miss that beast?! He got in, turned on the truck and back out on to the main street. Jonathan looked at me one last time and waved goodbye before finally taking off down the street. I walked back inside the house and closed the door behind me. I put my back to it and touched my tingling cheek. I’m fully aware that I just met him, but wow. He’s completely different from Alex.
After finally coming back to reality, I headed upstairs to my room. When I got there, I changed into some fresh new pjs, Nightmare before Christmas ones. As I was about to set my phone on the nightstand to charge, it began to vibrate. I looked at the screen and saw that I had gotten a text. I opened the message and immediately smiled.
