"Good morning!" Chase said as he knocked on the door.
"Get the hell out!" Rue joked.
"Make me." Chase said as he stepped inside.
"Just kidding; good morning Cheesecake! Hey Stella! Chase is here." Rue called out to me.
"Just a sec!" I called out from the shower.
"It's almost 6:45, hmmm..." Chase said.
"I'm almost done!"
"Okay. Hey muffin, wanna have breakfast with us?" Chase asked Rue.
"Kyle's already waiting for me at the cafeteria; maybe tomorrow?"
"I can't help but feel jealous for sharing my best friend with another guy, except for Josh, but okay, tomorrow then." Chase said. I could hear the smile in his voice.
"Awww, then let me give my best friend an apologetic hug." Rue said.
"You owe me and Josh coffee."
"Okay, tomorrow!" Rue assured him. "Hey listen, I gotta go okay? My class starts in 20 mins. See you at lunch Stella!"
"See you!" I shouted as I heard the bedroom door close.
After changing into my denim dress, I braided my hair and fumbled toward the door.
"I'm done!" I declared.
"How come I just noticed that you have a very comfy bed?" Chase said. He was lying on my bed while looking up at the ceiling.
"That's because you've never actually slept in it?" I said and Chase looked up.
"Wow."
"What?"
"You look beautiful." Chase smiled.
"Thank you. Now, lemme just put on some shoes and then we can go. What do you want for breakfast?"
"You?" Chase smirked and I rolled my eyes at him. I couldn't help but smile at his answer.
"Nice try, but seriously though, my treat."
"I'll just see what THG has for us."
"Okay." I said as I finally finished tying the shoelaces of my Converse. "You ready?"
"Yep." Chase said as he pulled himself up from my bed and picked up my books from the shelf.
"You forgot something."
"What?"
I smiled as I looked up and kissed him. Chase kissed me back as he dropped my books to the floor and pulled me up so that I'm standing on his toes. I smiled as I pulled away so that I could look at his angelic face.
"You smell like strawberries again. It's starting to become my favorite scent in the world." Chase smiled.
"I'll give you the brand of my shampoo and body wash if you want." I grinned.
"That'd be nice. So, breakfast?"
I nodded as we picked up my books and left.
