I've been trying my best to get Montgomery off my mind.

I'm trying so hard to forget him right now but it's so hard. One, because I see him everyday at work and two, because he's so freaking adorable it's impossible to stay mad at him.

He does stuff like bring me lemon water when I'm doing paper work and buy snicker bars and leave them in my locker for me,with notes like:

"4 Lucy from M x"

It makes my heart melt even though I don't want it to.

Like, let me be mad at you in peace

Today I'm going to go help Claude clean his apartment.

"Hey Claudia" I say as Claude opens the door

He hits the back of my head repeatedly and I laugh.

"What's up you little shit" he says back to me

I laugh and hit him in his arm

"Now before you come in...it's really bad-I've been really stressed ok...I've been meditating more and I only smoke twice a day now...I've been clean for almost 2 months"

My heart melts when I hear this.

I give him a big a hug off guard and he hugs me back lifting me off the ground.

When we get into his house I realise what he means by "really bad"

There are clothes everywhere, Starbucks cups all over the ground,plates of food that are so mouldy they they have fur and other things.

But I don't mind

"I know it's pretty bad" he says scarring the back of his head

"It's ok-let's clean it up" I say with an enthusiastic smile

As we got cleaning we talked about our family and stuff.

"Yea my dad-he was a real ass hole he was so fucking hard on me,not just with school but with life in general and...he'd tell me about how I was useless and I need to marry a good woman who will take care of me and shit like-I can take care of myself...ok maybe my place isn't clean but I can do my laundry-and cook...and clean"

"No offense but your father sounds like an a-hole"

"Ahahahha he was...We use to always fight...the cops were called every week" he sighs

"Then what happened"

"I ran away when I was 16...couldn't take living with him anymore... so I left"

"Whoa...are you ok..I would hug you but I smell like butt" I say laughing

"We both do" he laughs.

After a long 3 hours of scraping spraying and wiping,his apartment looks nice and clean, except we don't. We are both dirty and smell like mouldy poop.

He lights some scented candles to make it smell nice and he goes and takes a shower since we both smell like a dumpster.

I decide to be noisy and look around his room. The only room that wasn't messy.

He didn't have much. Just a couple books some candles and condoms....some of them used

None of my business

When he was finished he ran a bath for me.

It smelt like raspberry and lemon.

Mmmm
