I wave goodbye to my parents trying to hurry up and get outside to Jordan. He was honking like crazy and I wasn't appreciating that not one bit. Plus it was early in the morning...was he trying to wake the entire neighborhood up. I pull the handle to the back door and put my backpack next to his before getting into the passenger seat.

"Good morning baby."

He puckers his lips and I grab and twist them making him groan.

"If you ever in your right mind honk your horn like that I'll kick you where the sun doesn't shine."

"Sorry...but can I have a kiss", he mumbles.

I peck his lips and he puts his car in drive taking the route we normally take to school.

We came to campus awefully early and it seem like there was something on Jordan's mind.

"What's wrong", I grab his hand.

"Nothing", he shakes his head.

"Stop lying to me Anthony."

"I just don't want anything to happen to you. The girls here are just so mean and I just don't want them to bully you since you're my girlfriend now."

It was sweet that he was worried about my well being. I doubt if the girls didn't do anything when we were friends I doubt they'll do anything now.

"Thank you baby, but I can't hold my own."

"But I don't want you fighting though...you're too pretty to fight. So let's not do that."

"Ok", I nod my head, "I love you."

"I love you too", he smiles.

It's the the end of the day and I'm in the arena doing my homework while Jordan is at practice. Season is coming up really soon and they have a scrimmage next week and then a tournament after that so I gotta get myself prepared for that. I've been looking into Michigan's admissions and so far I check everything on the list. When the time comes I would just have to push everything in by the early consideration deadline. I would say Jordan is more excited than me because we'll be together. He is trying to help me make sure that I stay on track since I do that for him for basketball. I'm thankful that I have Jordan as my boyfriend and our relationship is still the same there's just a romantic and intimacy element added to it. I love it though and wouldn't change anything thing about it.

I look up to see Jordan staring at me up in the stands and I mouth, "pay attention." Not finna be the reason why he can't focus.

He's doing good on all the drills and he didn't well during the scrimmage I just hope the season treats him well. A lot of eyes are going to be on him since he just committed to Michigan. I'm just so happy for him and proud he's been working hard at this for a long time.

The coach calls them in for a huddle and dismisses the team. Jordan comes up the stairs sitting next to me with a towel on his head.

"I'm going to go change then I'll be out ok."

"Ok."

I peck his lips and I watch him rush to the locker room so he can hurry up and get dressed.

We pull into his driveway since my parents are coming over later for dinner. Grabbing my backpack I wait for Jordan to open my door because I opened a door for myself he yelled at me. It wasn't mean he was just saying as a gentleman he shouldn't allow me to do that. He opens the front door and we're greeted by his mom as she was doing one of her craft projects in the living room.
