I'd take it.
In the current economy, it's no so easy to land a job if you have no previous experience.
Plus, you say it's a good job, (regardless of being closer to your bf ). If you have something to put on your resume, it will be easier to look for a better position in future.

Never screw up an interview. Very bad thing to do and Not professional
You either politely decline the interview or you prepare well for the interview
I would research the company on the net. See if they sound like a company you would like to work for. Find out about their direction, what markets they serve, what they are proud of being a part of, their projects, size of the company, their products or services.
Employers LOVE it when a prospective employee has made an effort to find out more about the company.
And if it is a good job it gives you a chance to build your skills and experience NOW, not later. Think what this could become?
The idea of having to hang around, waiting, waiting, not earning well, or no job, does not sit well with me.
I would prepare well for this interview and go through with it, and accept the job if offered.
