"This is stupid." Logan groaned in frustration as he looked over his summer reading list.
"It's stupid but you gotta do it." I shrugged.
"Did you do yours?"
"At the beginning of the summer, instead of waiting until the last week like you."
"No shade." He laughed.
"Of course."
"Have you even read any of these books?" He asked.
"I've read every book on your list."
"Seriously?" He asked with raised brows. "Why don't you just do this little thingy for me?"
"Because I refuse to be a victim."
He sat the paper and his computer to the side and stared at me.
"Quit looking at me." I said to him.
"Quit looking at me." He shot back.
We laughed and then continued to stare at each other.
"You're annoying." I rolled my eyes.
"You're annoying."
"You eat ass."
"I do, you tryna see what my mouth do?"
"Don't ever say that again in your life." I laughed at him then we got quiet.
If wasn't an uncomfortable silence. It was nice, we just kinda caught each other's eyes again.
"I talked to Jess." He shrugged.
"What did she want?"
"Just checking in. Saying she loves me. She wishes I was still there so we could still be together."
"Yeah? What'd you say?"
"Told her I still loved and missed her. And that I was glad that I wasn't there anymore cause being here is good for my growth."
"Yeah." I mumbled, clearly jealous.
"She said she was dating again. I told her I was doing the same."
"Cool."
"You can talk about your ex but I can't talk about mine??" He asked.
"I don't talk to Xabrien. I don't tell him I love and miss him, and what goes on in my life damn sure isn't his business anymore."
"He isn't even your ex?? Y'all are on 'break'." Logan reminded me.
"A two month break where we don't talk and we're both seeing other people?? Okay Logan."
I turned my back t him and adverted my attention to the tv.
"Sorry."
"Yeah." I waved him off.
"No, real shit. I'm sorry."
"Yeah, whatever." I put my head down.
I was beyond jealous. I think he could tell.
"Forgive me." He flipped me on to my back and hovered over me.
He stared into my eyes. His electric blue ones always gave me a chill.
"Wyd fam?"
"Don't call me fam." He pinned my arms above my head.
"Or?"
"You're jealous?" He laughed.
"Logan move." I tried to push him away.
"Stop. Don't be jealous. You have me, she doesn't." He mumbled pecking my lips. "You talk about Xabrien all the time, I don't get jealous."
