Motivation - Edwin Honoret Oneshot
Going out with your friends was something you were unable to do in a hot minute. So to say a party at your best friend’s new friend’s house was quite inviting. Little did you know who you’d meet though.
“So, remember that song we like singing together in the car? You’re gonna meet some of the people who made it.” Your eyes widened slightly.
“What? One Shot is my shit! Who are they called again?” You asked, while slipping on your thigh high boots.
“They’re called PRETTYMUCH. I met Nick not too long ago, he’s got a killer jawline. There’s also Austin, he’s the taller white guy. Then Zion, he’s tall as well with blonde dreads. Brandon’s the one with glasses and black hair. Then there’s Edwin, he had red hair last time I saw him...might have changed it though. He’s a real sweetie.” You hummed in response to their answer. You reached for your bag and grabbed a water bottle.
“I’m ready!” You imitated Spongebob, making your bestie laugh and shaking their head at you.
“Woah, they live together?” You asked, seeing multiple bedrooms in the house. Y/BF/N nodded.
“Yeah, it’s really awesome. Makes me think about moving in with you.” You rolled your eyes.
“You irritate me too much.” You both laughed at yourselves.
“Y/BF/N!” You turned around to see whose face you remembered from Google while in the car, Nick Mara. You hadn’t managed to get to Austin or Edwin’s pictures though. You friend greeted Nick with a hug.
“Nick! Hey, this is Y/N. The one who loves One Shot.” Nick’s eyes flashed with recognition. He smiled and hugged you.
“The infamous bestie. Good to meet you, Y/N. Guys, feel free to grab any drinks from the cooler and in the kitchen anything on the counter is up for grabs. I’ll see you in a bit, Y/BF/N.” Nick winked at your friend and walked away in his crisp white shoes. You turned to your bestie with a smirk.
“So he’s coming back, aye?” Your friend rolled their eyes.
“I can tell by the whole “killer jawline”.” You both laughed once more. You really missed the carefree atmosphere work didn’t provide.
“Hey, excuse me, I was wondering your name?” You turned around to see a male with black hair and a cute nose ring smiling at you. You gave him a once over. He was rocking some cool frosted chains with a black and red themed look. He looked absolutely yummy to say the least. You didn’t mind giving your name.
“Y/N, and yours?” Your stance changed to something more relaxed and approachable. He chuckled lightly.
“Edwin, I helped throw the party.” He joked and your eyes widened in surprise.
“Oh my god. I was looking you guys up on the way here and I didn’t get to your picture! I mean...I might have been faster to get here if I knew your face.” You said the last part a bit quieter, nervous of his reaction.
“I like this one, Y/BF/N. Mind if I steal you?” He smiled at you while holding out his hand. You looked at your friend hopefully.
“Go on, you’re grown.” They chuckled. You smiled and took Edwin’s hand. He led you through a group of people to an unoccupied sofa.
“So, I hear you like One Shot?” He raised a thick eyebrow. You shrugged jokingly.
“Just a little bit of a fan. Just listened to 4U on the way here, that might be fighting for my next favorite.” He smiled at that.
“I remember recording that. Right in my room we recorded most of the vocals.” Edwin pointed to a closed door.
“You have a room studio?!” Your jaw dropped. He let out the cutest giggle and nodded. The laugh warmed your heart and your attraction was growing.
“Can I really? I don’t wanna intrude on your space.” Edwin shook his head dismissively.
“Not at all, c’mon.” Edwin took your hand again and led you to his room. “Watch.” He closed the door and grabbed a remote and soon neon lights were spread throughout the room.
“This, is awesome, Edwin.”
“The lights always inspire motivation for me. Even if it’s non musical.” He led you over to his computer space with a mic set up next to it. “I have hundereds of songs and beats on this it’s crazy.”
“How do you even come up with so many?” His body went to a shyer showcase of body language.
“It’s just relaxing and happens without even thinking. I hope you don’t think I’m bragging.” You shook your head quickly.
“Not at all! This is amazing. I could probably spend all day in here with you, it gives off good vibes.” You realized what you said and hoped it wasn’t too strong. His hand still holding yours, squeezed lightly.
“I’d really like that, Y/N.” You wet your lips slightly, feeling ballsy.
“It’s a date then.” He must have let his confidence rise as well.
“It sure is.” He tugged you softly closer to him. “Can I kiss you?” You responded by setting your other hand on his chest and letting your lips touch for a few moments. His lips were almost too soft to be real.
“Whatever you use on your lips, I want it.”
“There’s my motivation to make sure our first date goes well.”
