Love My Neighborhood

Chapter One: Fiancé to the Freak

Awakening, my hand unconsciously reached over to touch the now cold side reserved for my fiance. Where was he? Oh well. More room for me. I positioned myself into a spread eagle and sighed in content.

Ah. This was the life. But two questions still remained. Where was Jared? And what time was it? Too lazy to get up, I raised an arm, willing my powers to summon my phone to my side.

After a two minutes or so of me realizing that I was too tired to use my powers, I took up my phone.

7:30. Crap. I was gonna be late for class. Since it was almost finals week, that wasn't an option I wanted to take. I bolted out of bed, rushing into the bathroom.

I rushed out of the bathroom and strided over to my closet, grabbing the closest outfit. I chose sweatpants and a baggy T-shirt, and ran to my drawers for my bra and panty. Where the hell was Jared? I was gonna kill his ass when I found him for making me late.

But then, my guess was that he got abducted by aliens. He better pray that that's what happened. I hurriedly put on my clothes, and ran down the stairs to the kitchen. I froze, slowly comprehending the scene before me. There sat Jared in the living room, watching Love And Hip Hop Atlanta, eating Lucky Charms. Let me rephrase.

Eating my Lucky Charms. My nose flared, and I stormed over to him.

"Jared!" He jumped, almost spilling milk on the couch. I crossed my arms, my foot tapping impatiently on the floor.

He turned to face me, smiling sheepishly. "Hey sweetie. Love of my life, my bringer of happiness, the moon to my st-"

"Why didn't you wake me?" I asked dangerously soft.

"When you looked so peaceful, I didn't wanna wake you." I rolled my eyes, deciding to humor him for a second.

"Okay. Now what's the real reason?"

"Well, I knew if I woke you, you'd eat the Lucky Charms, plus the new episode of LAHHA was on, and I couldn't miss it." I slapped the back of his head, seething with anger.

"Jared, you idiot! You do realize that we're gonna be late right for school?"

He opened his mouth to speak, but as quickly as it opened, it closed. A sheepish smile was sent my way as I squinted my eyes at him. "I guess I never thought of that."

I sighed in exasperation, before going to plop down beside him. "Well, if we're gonna be late, at least have a reason, right?"

An idea popped into my head and I chose to run with it. Invading Jared's space, he held unto his bowl for dear life. I ran a finger along his arm. "Do you know what I want right now?" I made my voice as husky as possible to sell my point. I watched him visibly gulp before shaking his head feverishly. At the sight of his face, I resisted the urge to laugh. Poor guy didn't know what was coming.

I smiled wolfishly, moving in as close as humanly possible. His eyes closed on their own accord as I went to whisper in his ear, "I want you..." Another gulp from his end. I smirked. Right where I wanted him. Sometimes Jared was so gullible, he made me feel like a retard. I leaned over to place a kiss at the corner of is mouth to bring it home.  While he was under my spell I tried remove the Lucky Charms from his grip that did not loosen up from around the bowl. God damn. To think he was getting seduced-and if I do say so myself, the temptress was quite irresistible-and the guy still wouldn't let go of the bowl. Sometimes I wondered what  his answer would be if i asked to choose between me and the Lucky Charms.

"Let me be exactly clear on what I want.." I made sure that my minty breath fanned his face. And I thanked God for the mintiness. I couldn't even imagine doing this, and my breath smelled like Jared's high school gym socks that he had yet to wash. I was beginning to think that the thing was getting a mind of his own. I swear that I saw it glide across the laundry room when I dumped it in the garbage.

"I want.. your Lucky Charms." I whispered, leaving light kisses on his cheek making one of his hand leave the bowl to grab my waist. Realizing that he needed his other hand he quicklt disposed of the bowl on the table and fully grabbed me, but I had another thing in mind. Wiggling out his grasps, I picked up the bowl of half eaten Lucky Charms and walked back to kitchen. "Nice doing business with ya bud." I laughed over my shoulder. Refilling it, I sat on the counter and happily ate my cereal while Jared sent me death glares.

When finished, I disposed of the bowl in the dishwasher and headed back to the living room. As I entered Jared gave me teh stink eye. "I feel so... so used." I laughed, and plopped down beside him. "Then you must feel that way everyday you're with me."

And that my friends is how Jared and I broke up. He realized that I did indeed make him feel used, and broke it off.

THE END

Just kidding, he loves me too much for that petty stuff.  After LAHHA came back on, we forgot the incident immediately. Well at least I did. Jared on the other hand...

"I can't wait to Purge your ass." Yes, we were very much in love and couldn't hold back the loving words that came in the heat of the moment. "And I cant wait to see you try and fail ya filty animal." Leaning over I kissed then stood up. "Race you to the car!"  Grabbing our bags off the table I waited outside the door for him to turn off everything and then we walked to our car joking about our boring lectures and plans for the day. Life with Jared was anything but boring.
