We saw no one the whole night. Which was really weird. Foxy wasn't even in the hallway.

"I wish every night can go like this." I get up. I fell asleep on the job.

Jere laughs at me. He smirking also.

I look around and see a mark. "You didn't." I laugh and grab the mark.

Jere stands up to run, but I grab him and shove him on the ground. I sit on him.

"It's only fair." I uncap the marker.

"N... No. I'm s... Sorry." He laughing a lot.

"You're not sorry one bit." I smile at him.

I wrote love on his forehead and a big question mark. I draw a stick figure on his cheek.

"I... I didn't do that m... Much!" He cries.

I recap the mark and smile down at him.

"M... Mike, get off." Jere grabs my legs and push me up.

I stand up and set the marker back on the desk.

"Now let's see what's on our faces." I smile at him and walk with him to the bathroom. "Is this washable?"

"Y... Yes." Jeremy nods.

I look in the mirror as Jere looks in another. All he did was doodle on me.

There was a bunny and a chick. Not the human one, a baby chicken.

I laugh and wash my face. "You know we have papers right?"

Jeremy was more focus on his forehead. "Wh... Why you write this?"

"It's about your letter. I guess it was a love letter." I glance at him.

He turns very red. "Y... Yeah."

"So it is a love letter. Who is the lucky person?"

"N... Not telling." The teen starts washing his face.

I sigh and nod. "Oh well."

I was hoping he'd just say he's loves me, instead of guessing he does.

But life doesn't work like a story or a movie. There isn't happy ending out of no where or confessing out of no where.

If life worked like I've would be telling Jere everything my heart told my mind about him.

"Want to go to the store? I need milk and something to make for supper." I ask him.

"C... Could I stay at your house? The c... Cop guy needs to talk to Gr... Grandma again. My stepfather i... Is saying the ruling was unfair b... Because the jury had two of m... My mothers friend in it." Jere looks at the sink.

"Sure. You can stay with me anytime you want."

I was so happy on the inside. I was screaming in happiness. Then in fear.

I have to clean. My house looks like a barn right now. I'll look bad, but there is no time to clean it.

"Th... Thanks." Jeremy smiles at me.

"My house isn't going to be pretty right now. I'm still moving my ex stuff out and I haven't got to cleaning to it yet." Might as well tell him now.

"Th... That's OK." Jere laughs to himself.

I don't know what's funny to him and I don't want to know.

"First the store. Then my house."
