Ding dong! That must be him, pretty fast though. I had on sweat pants and a T-shirt, i really didn't feel like changing.

Hey, you look nice.
Come on it's just regular sweat pants and t-shirts.
"Yeah but still you look nice"
Thanks anyway.
I grabbed my winter jacket before i closed the door. It was freezing and snowing outside. Damn, i should have postponed this.

We walked to the end of the street in total silence which was so uncomfortable. I cleared my throat in an attempt to start a conversation.

So how was work?
It was ok. He said forcing himself to smile. I could see that he was nervous and i wonder why. I also wonder why he works. I mean in school he acts all "godly" and he looks so comfortable.

Can i ask you a question? He said bumping me out of my thought.
Yeah sure. I wonder what the question was.

"Do you hate me?"
Did i actually hate him?. Hmmm.
"If i hated you i won't be with you right now!"
So can i take that as a "no"?
I don't hate you Jayson, i never really did. His face brightened up, i actually never hated him, i just think he needs help. Serious help.

Uhmm, i really want to apologize for everything i did, i was just stupid, and i treated you in a way no man should treat a lady. I'm really sorry. I know you can never forget it, but i'm gonna try to make you forget.
He actually just apologized to me. Wow! I really didn't know what to say. We went over to the bus stop opposite the street and sat down. It was really cold.

I beckoned on him to sit seeing that he was still standing in front of me. No i'm good right here.

Shontaeya! Wow he said my name right.
"Wow so you know my name" i said looking at him. He smiled, he rarely smiled.
I don't hate you Jayson, and it's gonna take a while for me to forgive or forget but i don't hate. Maybe if you change it could get better.

I promise i'm gonna change, you already started the process for me. To be honest, all my life i have never really seen a girl like you and trust me i'm not flattering you. Most girls just seem to want to be friends with me for popularity or sex. You stood up to me which no one has actually never done. You might not know this but you touched a deep buried part of me.

As he was talking i looked at him, he looked so innocent, it was like i was seeing through him. He was deep, i have never seen him like this and DAMN he even looked hotter. Bruhh!

So can you at least me my friend? Please i know you don't like me and....

Yes Jayson, we are friends! I said cutting him off. And before i could blinked i was standing and wrapped by his arms. I pulled out immediately.

      Oh, hmm sorry about that. I was just too excited. Yeah it's fine. I should head back home now, it's really cold.

   "Ok, i'll walk you home."
No, it's fine, you're gonna miss your bus. And he pulled my hand. On our way back i was already shivering, my jacket wasn't thick enough. He noticed and i could see him taking off his jacket leaving him with just a hoodie on. He put the jacket on me and i attempted to reject it.
"You're cold, i have a hoodie on. It's fine."
     Thank you. He's jacket smelled so good. Like my dad!

     Jayson, since we are "friends" now can i ask you a question?

    You just asked one question. He was smiling now. I smacked his upper arm and he squealed in pain. "You know it didn't even hurt".
     Yes it did! He was pouting like a baby. Then i started laughing.

"Why do you work?, i mean it's not like it's bad but why?

       I work cos girls think it's hot, he had a smirk on his face. He was clearly avoiding my question.  Jayson stop avoiding my question you jerk!

Wow, you know it's kind of sexy when you yell or become bitchy he said winking at me.
Are you crazy? I said smiling at him. He was so hot and annoying! 

        We got to my house and i thanked him for walking me. He smiled and said "no thank you for being my friend!" See you soon Taeya.

      I went in the house and took off my jacket. And then i remembered that i didn't return his jacket. I pulled out my phone and texted him.
Hey, you forgot your jacket.
Crap!, I'm already in the bus, it's ok just give it to me in school. I know you planned this the whole time. You wanted my jacket cos you missed me and you made me forget it on purpose.

What!, no I didn't. Why would i miss you? I was actually blushing.
Mmh-hmm, i could feel him raising an eyebrow and smirking.

You know what, just hang up.

Why can't you do it yourself?
Cos i..... You know what, "screw you"! I hung up the phone immediately. He's such a jerk. Who does he think he is.
I still wasn't sleepy at all. I turned on the tv and laid on the couch with my small blanket and Jayson's jacket. I watched a movie and slept off like 10 minutes into it. I was all wrapped up in Jayson's jacket. I just loved the smell so much. Thats all. Don't get it twisted. Jayson is absolutely not my type.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

New week, no drama. I really hope so. My chauffeur is going to take me, sierra and sally to school this morning cos we didn't feel like waking up early to ride the school bus.

Hey besties, i missed y'all this weekend. I said as soon as we were in the car.

Yeah, you sure did. Sally said with her face all plain and ting.
Whoa look who's got am attitude today, sierra said. And Shontaeya why are you all wrapped up. I mean i know it's cold but you're wearing a hoodie, a thick jacket and another jacket that seems to be so big for you.

       This jacket is not mine, i have to return it today and I don't want to forget so I'm wearing it.
      Oh i see. Sally said.

Sally whats up with your attitude today?
Yeah sally, you barely get mad.

        Oh I'm not mad, was just wondering if lil miss "jayson's girl" was ever gonna update me on her date. Sierra almost choked on her coffee when she heard "lil miss jayson's girl".
     Oh shit. I totally forgot to call her back. I was supposed to tell her how it went. Crap! That was why she was mad.

Wait what! Shontaeya and Jayson?, date? When? How? Why wasn't i informed.

       Sierra i can explain it's not as serious as it sounds. The car had already pulled up in front of the school and they were both mad at me.

I thought we were supposed to be best friends. Shontaeya!!!

     Just calm down and freaking hear me out. They both got down from the car and walked away. Great way to start the week! Dang it!
