caring? nah

The beeping of my alarm wakes me up and I turn it off. I sit up and rub my eyes. Ugh I don't feel like going anywhere today. I finally make my way out of the bed and I head to take a quick shower.

When I step out I place a towel around my body while heading to the laundry room. I pick up a floral dress and hear a whistle behind me.

"Good morning." Jake laughs while walking over to me.

"Good morning." I say while holding my towel.

"No." He grabs my hand. "It's been days."

"Whose fault is that?"

"I don't know."

"Okay whatever. I have to get ready for work."

"So this is how it is now?" He follows me back to my room.

"What?"

"We won't sleep together."

"Well it seems to me that work has you occupied so I would say that's why."

"Come on. I barely spoke to you this week and now you have a job."

"I'm a busy woman. I can't wait up at night for you." I push past him and make my way into my room. He follows me inside and sits on the bed.

I ignore his presence while walking over to a drawer to get some underwear.

"Are you just gonna sit there?" I ask while placing my things on the bed.

"Aren't you going to change?" He asks as if its the most obvious thing in the world.

"Yes but not with you sitting here watching me."

"Go ahead."

"Jake just get out."

"I get off early today." He gets up completely ignored my plea.

"Okay?"

"Maybe we could arrange something." I turn away from him to pull my panties up without letting my towel drop.

"Like what?"

"You tell me." I sigh and let my towel drop. I soon feel his presence behind me. He wraps his hand around my waist and I cover my exposed chest.

"I've missed you." I roll my eyes at his words.

"Of course you have." I laugh while getting out of his hold and putting on a bra. I finally place my dress on.

"What would you like to do tonight? You know besides what's already planned." I roll my eyes at his last comment and think.

"Dinner." I simply reply.

"Good what do you want? I could stop by the store?"

"No I mean out. I want to go out for dinner."

"Why can't we just eat here?"

"Why can't we just go out?"

"I don't really like going out to eat."

"You went out to eat with Pam." I say before my brain has a chance to comprehend what I said.

"That was different."

"Oh yeah because you weren't actually dating her." I roll my eyes.

"It's not that big of a deal Ashley."

"It's funny because it is that big of a deal Jake."

"Why is it so important to go to a restaurant to eat food we could fix ourselves?"
