Raelynn

After finally escaping her advocacy lecture, which is thankfully her only lecture of the day, she walks out the building back to her car not rushing because the rains finally subsided, she gets a buzz on phone it was a text from Ariana.

Grande no whole milk

Hey Rae go to the Starbucks on rain street at 4:30 to meet the guy your helping he's super sweet I promise 💕

Rae-bies

Ok cool I'll be there

Rae was never normally this dry with Ariana but right now she wasn't to happy with what her best friend had roped her into.

Finally getting back to the shared apartment Rae puts her stuff down and gets changed out of her still damp jeans putting on pjs deciding to take a nap as it was only 11:40am meaning she had a couple hours till she had to go.

She wakes up at 3:50 still half asleep from her nap Raelynn throws on a hoodie and leggings not to bothered about how she looks because she's only going to meet some stupid guy she doesn't care about. She lazily runs a brush through her thick blonde hair trying to tame it to be some what presentable then pulling shoes on grabbing her keys and leaving.

Raelynn pulls into the parking lot of the Starbucks five minutes early giving her enough time to go in grab a drink and set up. She walks in the warm coffee shop and orders her usual brown sugar shaken espresso to give her a kick of caffeine to get her through this meeting.

She looks at her phone wow he's five minutes late how considerate not like I'm her to literally help him. She mindlessly scrolls through instagram waiting for this random guy.

Rutger

Rushing out of practice already running late quickly getting changed and jumping in his car he drives as fast as he can getting to the Starbucks feeling like a dick for being late.

Rutger jumps out his car and walks in the door of the coffee shop frantically looking round for a "short blonde" Arianas description of her friend who'd be helping him. His eyes lock on a girl sat alone in a booth scrolling on her phone perfectly fitting the description.

Both

He walks over and asks "Raelynn?"

Her head snaps up from her phone meeting the eyes of the 6 ft something super cute brunette boy smiling down at her she is floored, he wasn't what she was envisioning.Rae shots back a quick reply of "oh um yea you must be Rutger right?"

Sitting down he smiles answering "yeah I am sorry bout being late I got caught up at practice"

still in shock of the pretty girl sat in front of him Ariana didn't mention how gorgeous her roommate was.

Raelynn fills the silence with a question "so ari told me you need help finding a PR manager?"

He tells her his coach advised him to find one after posting something on his story he wasn't too happy with. Rae thinks to her self ok so she was right about something he is a sports player, not like she'd know much it's not like she hates sports but would never go out the way to watch a sports game but to each their own. Raelynn asks "Oh damn that's rough what sport do you play?"

Slightly shocked she dosent know what he plays because it feel like the whole campus dose "oh um hockey I'm drafted to the nhl so gotta take image more serious yeno what I mean"

Rae's impressed NHL ok maybe I was wrong about peaking in high school. Raelynn laughs and says"Oh yeah definitely gonna need a pr manager for that"

She opens her laptop and starts typing "so Rutger, any brands you like or want to specifically work with

Raelynn looks up from her laptop meeting his grey eyes fuck he's cute. "Uhh Nike and sports brands like that are probably the best for me"

Raelynn nods and types oh her laptop all Rutger can do is look and her and how pretty she is deciding to break the Silence he asks her "so Raelynn why'd you pick PR as a major?"

She looks up at him shocked wow he's actually asking questions looking back down at her laptop Rae answers "oh well I guess I've always been interested in social media and that kinda stuff so it was a no brainer for me I guess"

He nods in response and she turns her laptop round to show him the options of PR managers "these are the 10 managers I think would be best for you"

She gose through each one explaining how long they've been working in pr and past clients but he can't focus on what she's saying but only on her voice and studying her perfect features. She asks what one Rutger likes best he sheepishly replies "if I'm completely honest I'm kinda confused so I'm just gonna trust your judgement oh who's the best"

She raised an eyebrow trying to act annoyed at the adorable boy in front of her telling him "Steven Walters, he's been in pr for 13 years worked with 4 pro sports players"

Rutgers smiles "sounds perfect what do I gotta do now"

Raelynn clicks on Stevens linked in and tells Rutger he needs to email Steven telling him about his career his aims and brands he'd like to work with. He smirks "Could you help me write the email I'm not the best at that kinda thing"

Rae playfully rolls her eyes and agrees saying she'll draft him an email. While Raelynn is concentrating on writing Rutger looks at her cup thinking to himself a brown sugar shaken what? Oh well. He stands up telling her he'll be right back and gose to order her a drink and a brownie and the same for him self. Coming back to the table and place if her espresso and snack next to her "you must be starving we've been her for like over two hours"

She looks up at him and smiles "thank you what's your vennmo I'll pay you back"

He laughs telling her "don't worry about it you've basically been doing free labour for me the least I can do is get you a drink"

Smiling all that's going through Raelynns head is how a cute guy is being so fucking sweet but he probably had a girlfriend so I gotta just get over this it's dumb. Rae finishes up the email and texts it over to Rutger and he thanks her. They walk towards the door and it's already dark out "where's your car parked?"

Raelynn looks at the boy asking the question "oh um over their" pointing to her car in a far corner of dingy the parking lot

He looks at her car and tells he"I'll walk you to it"

She reply's telling him not to worry and she'll be fine but he persists telling her "I'd rather make sure you'd get back to you car "

She finally agrees and he walk her to her car "Well I'll see you soon Rae "

"Oh uh yeah for sure" she says closing her car door all that she can think about is the cute boy she spent hours with and actually enjoyed herself, no don't be like that Rae he probably has a girlfriend.
