Kelly

Last night was way better than how I predict it would be. I didn't have high hopes when Patrick and Dustin made the suggestion on a Lazy Hump Day to go to the club. I only agreed because I had nothing better to do, Bryan, Carnell and the rest of our crew did though. It was just the three of us and I guess they could make a lame day end pretty good.

When we got there I never expected to see the dance off happening on the first floor right in the middle of the dance floor, the club was pretty packed so by the time I had gotten down the stairs the song was over and the people that were dancing had dispersed.

I knew who was dancing though, Elisha, she was gonna be touring with us and I had fallen in love with her dance technic the first time I'd seen it. In fact, I was the first one to pick her at the auditions, but everyone else agreed that she was pretty good, I just want to point out I was first.

I found her near the bar in a booth. I had rushed that way hoping that she hadn't left. It was our first face to face and I discovered how much a fan of B5 she was. We talked and danced, apparently she was at the club with some friends celebrating going on tour with me, I mean us. It's funny to think that she was that excited, then again we were her first. We were her first professional gig, her first tour. And that was a big achievement for her.

When we were tired of dancing we talked for hours, her New Orleans accent was cute, she kept saying she didn't have one, so in denial. Of course my brothers butted in from time to time but they weren't really a problem. These twins that had came with Elisha weren't exactly helping the situation though. They keep coming up one at a time diverting our conversation or taking Elisha to dance or joke around with. They seemed fun but they didn't want Elisha's attention to be singularly on me, I could tell. I wanted to take it as them just being protective friends but something was telling me it was different, more.

Elisha was sweet and I could tell it wouldn't be a pain to work with her.

Jason

It was about 11 when I woke up Thursday, I checked my phone immediately, expecting a message from Elisha. Thinking about her made me remember the dress she was wearing, some time through the night I had managed to finally how good she looked in it. She only took it as a compliment but I was hoping for a better reaction.

I didn't quite get a proper introduction to these guys that Elisha was suppose to be going on tour with but I was familiar with them. Elisha talked about them a lot and even made me watch that "Say Yes" video on my phone, talking about getting them to 1million views on YouTube. There was one in particular that she had a crush on, I know because I teased her into telling me. He was the one she spent the most time with last night. And yes, I did interrupt their conversation a few times. I didn't think she should be flirting with him anyways, I mean I liked her first, well technically I did. Well between the B5 guy and I. I knew her first, liked her first (kind of), and said her dress was hot first.

I was microwaving a Toaster Strudel when I finally got up around 11:30am.

{BEEP} {BEEP} goes my phone in my room. When I check its a message from Elisha.

-"good morning sunshine when you read this that means we both survive the night and are awake 😋 "-

I smile as I read.

-" nope still sleep.. Zzz.."-

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-"Well get your butt up"-

-" *whines* do I gotta?"-

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-"..."- I laugh at her response.

-"agh fine.. I'm up."

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-" better be.. Hm!😤😋"-

-"yeah yeah just make sure all your sh*t is packed, ma'am"-

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-"Oh my... Language young man smh"-

I ate my 'breakfast', put some clothes on, hopped in my truck and headed to Elisha's apartment.

Leo

I texted Elisha before I left for work around 9:30am and she hadn't text me back until just now.

-"just woke up and Jason is here. Everything is good. What about chu?"- was what it read.

-"rather be there than here for sure 😴-"

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-"It's that boring that you want to do manual labor? "-

Before I got a chance to reply she sent another text.

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-"then again you haven't worked out this week "-

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-"and you barely danced last night"- she texted right after the other.

-"and that means..!?"- I finally texted back knowing where she's going with this.

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-"I just don't want you to be a lazy lion Leo 😜"- she jokes.

-"😧I think you just called me fat."-

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-"you can take it how you want, talk you soon gotta help Jason with my bags of clothes."-

{BEEP} {BEEP}

-" btw, I think he needs to work out too"- and with that she ended our conversation and I was left to slowly die of office work boredom.

I miss our little funny time passing chats. Always completely random, talking about tidal waves, raving, strange dirty secrets, awkward moment, truth or dare, and confessionals.

Once we texted from the beginning of my shift until the end and were still texting until we met up that night. I love her and always will. Then thing about it and her is I can't describe it. The love I feel for her isn't like what I feel for Melody or Jason or even my little sister Gemini. And because its so indescribable I enjoy it more.

She's the first I've ever felt this way about and sometimes I question why I'm with Mel when I have someone as great as Elisha.

Gosh today has to be slow for me to think so deeply on the situation I'm in.
