As the night went on, we all laughed with each other and soon it was time for us to go back to our respective cars. Ryan only ended up having the one drink, so he was able to drive us all back. "Oh, I forgot to tell you, Em, we got the guest room set up for you," T smiled and I couldn't help but laugh, "I told you I could've stayed in a hotel," "Nope! I mean you're moving next door anyways so why not just stay with us anyway?" Ryan shook his head and I laughed again, "You don't live here?" Ricky raised a brow, and I shook my head. "Not yet. I'm in the process of moving my stuff here from Los Angeles, so my house is pretty empty right now," I shrugged, looking to him again. "I will say though, I like it a lot more than LA already. It feels so much more at peace, though, I know that won't last if you guys know where I live," she teased more toward Ryan who gave a fake shrug. 

When they got back to the venue, I got out of the car, looking up to the venue we would be meeting back up at in just a few hours to get everything ready for the tour's first night. I took one last look at Ricky and smiled over to him. I started to get into my rental car and stuck my key into the ignition. I went to close the door until I heard footsteps. "Emily wait." Ricky stopped me, holding my door open. I smiled, letting him open it, and turned the car off, turning my attention to him. "Yes?" "I wanted to give you this," he handed her a piece of paper with some number scribbled onto it, "In case you need anything. Or if you just get bored." he offered a smile to me and I let out a small laugh, getting out my phone. I entered his number into my contacts before sending a simple smiley face to his phone, satisfied when I heard the ping. "I'll text you when I get home, yeah?" I offered and I saw his face light up. He adjusted his jacket slightly and nodded. "Please do. I know you're safe with them, but really if you need anything I'm sure I or any of the others would be willing to help." "You're making it really hard for me to not want to kiss you right now," I joked causing him to blush. "Oh- I-," "You'll get that kiss tomorrow, just gotta be patient," I teased again and started my car. He nodded and stepped aside closing my door for me, and I grinned. 

I started the drive to the apartment complex passing by my apartment. While I would love to stay in it, the only thing in there at the moment is a TV. I knocked on the door to Ryan and T's apartment figuring they arrived before me. Eventually, T opened the door and flashed me a bright smile, stepping to the side to let me in. "Saw Ricky come up to you," she pointed out and I rolled my eyes, "He just gave me his phone number in case I needed anything," "Yeah..."In case you need anything" sure" she laughed, and I shrugged. "He seems like a really nice guy. Very calm. It's such a drastic difference from some of the others," "And different than the guys you tend to go for," she shook her head, "He literally checks all your boxes of things you've told me you want. I don't know why you don't go for it." I couldn't help but laugh at that. "Maybe because I just met him today. There's still time to figure all that ou-" I was interrupted by a ping. 

I took my phone out of my back pocked seeing the familiar number on my screen. "It's him isn't it, your smile gives it away," she asked, and I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, it is. He was just sending a message to say it's his number." I shook my head and laughed to her. "Are you sure this whole kiss thing isn't just a ploy for you to get us together?" I finally asked and T shook her head, laying a hand on her chest defensively, "What? No, I'd never," she teased, and I couldn't help but roll my eyes again. After talking for a while, before T took me down the hall to their guest room. It was clear elements from both of them were put into it from Ryan's games to T's love of fashion and their shared love for horror. I thanked her before getting into the bedroom, settling down and decompressing. I took out my phone again, hovering over the phone number before eventually deciding to press open. 

EM: I got home safe and am about to go to bed :) Thank you

RICKY: I'm glad to hear. I'll see you tomorrow. Let me know if you need anything, I'll be showing up just a little late :)

EM: Will do, Olson. Have a goodnight. 

RICKY: Goodnight, Em
