I wanted to see him so much in that moment, I missed him more than I should have and that was a problem for another day. For now I had to shower. So I did, Ceci cleaned and I washed away Max's cologne even through I wanted his scent to stay with me forever. He smelled like mahogany and maple syrup. It was masculine but sweet. Just like him. I got out of the shower and got dressed in a pair of shorts and my oversized sweater.

My mother texted me and I found out she was only a few miles away.

Ace: You've got about thirty minutes before she gets here.

Ceci: I don't get why your mom won't keep her mouth shut about anything

Ace: Me either

Ceci: I want to come out on my own terms and pretending I'm straight when your mom is around isn't really helping me get there.

Ace: I know and I'm so sorry, I want you and Jazz to feel comfortable around my mom

Ceci: Me too, but considering she's still mad at me for who knows what.

Ace: You two are still fighting?

Ceci: Sadly

Ace: Why do you let me talk about all my problems and never talk about yours?

Ceci: I don't know

Ace: You know you can talk to me

Ceci: I know, this just isn't something I want to talk about
