B5 Just Dance, Unrequited Love Story

Part #8: A Lazy Kind of Day

Author's Note:

Please excuse my "tardy for the party" mentality. I was without wifi and I being addicted to it got depressed and refused to write. Thus with all this being said I produced nothing with in the last two(?) weeks. I'm happy to see I have loyal readers that deserve at least two post for my unpredictable disappearance. Here is one and I'm working on the second as I write this note.

I hope you are having a lovely Labor Day weekend.

Now I shouldn't be asking this after being away for so long without informing you but I'll ask anyway. Could you please comment on the story. It will not only benefit me but you as well.

Read on.

Love you guys!

It's Friday, officially the first of the month and technically my second day at the twins house. I went to sleep at a decent time, dozing off while being entertained by the boys, yet again proving my aunt right, I can not "hang".

The night went smoothly after the food, a pajama change and a good movie. We all eased back into our same routine, though I was the only one that was swayed from the routine.

The clock read 9:18am when I finally was awake enough to check. As I sat up on my makeshift bed I noticed Leo sitting in the reclining chair. "Good morning Leo," I chirped.

"Well good morning Kitten," he replies while I stretch out on the couch resembling the actions of the creature I was nicknamed after.

"Mm, that coffee sure smells good," I smile taking a deep inhale. Leo laughs.

"I made enough for you," he said pointing to the kitchen. I gingerly get up excited for the coffee. After pulling out a mug from the cabinet and pouring the steaming black gold in I notice there was only enough for me and possibly a half cup.

"Hey what about Jason," I ask feeling bad, thinking I was probably taking his portion.

"I don't like coffee," he answers for himself, startling me, thank goodness I wasn't holding the cup any more.

"Yes, you do have issues," I joked. "Not liking coffee has to be a mental illness," I continue while looking for creme and sugar. Startling me again Jason comes up behind me, opens the refrigerator wider, grabs the creme and hands it to me while grabbing something out for himself. "Well, thank you," I mumble grateful, finding the sugar easily, it was on the counter. Jason and I worked on opposite counters and by the tinkling on ceramic or hard plastic I assume without looking that he's making himself a bowl of cereal. By the time I'm finished perfecting my cup of joe Leo has joined us in the kitchen and is placing his mug in the empty sink.

"Aw, all done," I playful whine making the observation.

"Yup, I gotta go," Leo responds giving me a quick hug, grabbing his things, and heading to work.

Jason and I enjoyed the rest of the morning in the living room sharing the couch comfortably watching various morning talk shows until eleven o'clock hits. That's when Jason starts getting ready for work. Leaving me with nothing to do but flip through channels nothing really catching my eye but I leave the tv on the Lifetime Movie Network. When Jason is on his way out the door he makes a sour face at the channel then leaves.

He is such a guy. Thinking that brings me back to the uncomfortable event that seems to not want to leave my memory bank. Do I want to address the situation? I try my hardest to watch what's on tv and distract my brain, but it finds no satisfaction until Kelly and Leo start texting me.

Texting Leo was just our usual silly banter to help him avoid boredom seeing as paper work for the Post office could get pretty dull and our conversations were very random. The chat I was having with Kelly was definitely that of school girl crush quality. You could tell just by the constant grin, giddiness, and giggles that erupted after every reply. It was totally a flirt off. If black girls could physically blush I'd definitely not be a nature shade of anything right now.

Somewhere in the mist of our flirting I'd invited him, his brothers, and their posse to an event my brother was conducting in Atlanta for the first time, Silent Disco. Seeing as choreography rehearsals were to start in two weeks I figured we could dance freely one last time before we start getting our butts whipped by Roo.

I stayed inside all day just texting and goofing around. It felt weird not having obligations again, just like the lazy summers I had in between school when I was a kid.

Leo and Jason came in about the same time to find me fixing up my little space in the living room. They were both too good of a distraction to pass up so I annoyed the both of them like I would do my siblings until they both left me for good to go to sleep.

I ended my night with a random yet good movie and some more flirting with Kelly who is totally a night owl.

I know I shouldn't be doing this, but it was a temptation and an opportunity that I just had to take.

I figured that I could totally clear it up and act mature about the situation when we went on tour. I hope.

The contract said we couldn't date so I'll make sure not to do that, I think.

Kelly has got to be on the same page, there is no excuse for not letting him know, but why can I not text him this or something? I gotta let him know, and I gotta let him know soon.

Gosh what did I get myself into?
