I stare at jaxon for a few moments trying to process what he just said. He chuckles wrapping his arm around my shoulder. He looks into the mirror and grins, "we look so cute! Take a picture."
I laugh lightly grabbing my phone and taking a few mirror pics, I never know how to pose so I just keep my arm in front of me holding my face rag.
He throws up a piece sign for the last one. I sit my phone back down on the counter and as I look over Kb is standing in the door with narrow eyes, -probably because the bright lights- and the blanket wrapped around him, "you're girlie pop jaxon."
Jaxon Looks over to him with wide eyes, "I'm definitely a vagetarian." Jaxon laughs loudly at his joke.
I laugh shaking my head, running my rag under hot water and cleaning the cleanser off my face. Kb smacks his lips going back into my room.
Once we're both done we go into my bedroom. I give jaxon a comforter and one of my pillows, he makes a palette on the floor on the other side of my bed. I lay down getting under my covers, "are you going to the home coming game tomorrow?"
"Yes I'm going, I don't want too but jas is making me," I laugh.
He stays silent for a moment, "if you don't want to go don't let her make you."
"Well I don't mind going, parties just really aren't my thing. I always feel like I'm out of my comfort zone."
"Yeah I understand, I don't party much either. Either home or the gym." He laughs, making me laugh too.
I lay my head down on my pillow, propping my arm up; "you think you could teach me some workouts? I want to become more active."
"Oh for sure! I hit the gym 6 days out of the week, I can teach you a lot."
I smile nodding, "good, I need some weight loss exercises."
His expression changes, "you don't need to lose weight...I'd just suggest lifting to tone your body, because you already have a nice shape."
I smile nodding my head, "are you ready for homecoming tomorrow?"
He sighs and nods his head in response. He doesn't seem too happy for homecoming.
"You don't seem happy..." I frown, hoping he tells me what's wrong.
"It's just...Jasmine has been acting weird. I know we aren't officially together so I can't get upset if she talks to other people but I feel like she is and hiding it from me."
Tell him.
"Oh...I'm sorry. The talking stage is always the hardest." I say.
"That's the thing we aren't in the talking stage. We're going on dates and everything, we've been on at least 3 dates so far. We're far enough past the talking stage to not be hiding something like that you know?" His eyebrows furrow.
Tell him!!!
"If you guys are going on dates, why haven't you made it official?" I question him. Because going on dates is "dating". After the first date and they planned to have a second one that's when I'd make it official.
"She said she didn't want to rush things, and I'm not in any rush either. So that's why my feelings kinda feel invalidated..." he mumbles fidgeting with the chain around his neck.
TELL HIM!
I go silent just watching him. He sighs and lays his head down, "we'll see how things go. What about you? Are you ready?"
