Work It Out (Dave East)

Chapter 13

Rosanna

Saturday

Opening my eyes, I didn't see Julian in the bed. Getting up, I sighed and stretched. I headed to the bathroom so I could brush my teeth and was my face.

I wonder where Julian was, I don't think he'd just up and leave without telling me.

A smile appeared on my face just thinking about him and last night. Julian makes me really happy, not to mention how comfortable I am around him. I feel like I can honestly just be me.

After finishing up in the bathroom I went downstairs to find Julian in the kitchen cooking. He stood in front of my stove shirtless, with just his pants on.

His tattoos are such a turn on for me.

"Goodmorning" I spoke.

He glanced back at me, "Wassup baby girl."

I smiled. He is too fine. I just can't help myself when I'm around him.

I got up from the island and stood behind Julian, wrapping my arms around him. He was much taller than me so instead of trying to look over his shoulder, I peeked around his arm.

"Whatchu cooking?"

"Eggs, waffles and sausage." He responded and I nodded.

There was a plate of waffles on the counter beside the stove and another plate with sausage. He was currently cooking the eggs.

I took a seat back at the island.

"So my dad wants dad wants to meet you. If you're not ready then that's fine. Or I guess if you just don't want to. But he really wants to meet you. I told him it was too early but he insi-"

He cut off my babbling, "Ma, it's fine. I don't have no problem meeting ya pops." He laughed.

I sighed because I was really nervous about telling him but i'm glad Julian is open to it.

"Well he wants to meet you sometime this upcoming week, just let me know what day is good for you."

"Alright."

He sat a plate in front of me with eggs, waffles and sausage. Boy, did it look good.

"Thank you."

I ate a fork full of eggs and they were good. I could definitely get used to this, coming downstairs to a shirtless Julian and good ass food.

"This is good as hell Julian."

"Thanks. So what you got going on today?"

"Um, well I need to go see my friend later and I'll probably start looking into things for my store."

He nodded, "that's dope. I already know you ready to get shit popping with your store. You got a name for it yet?"

I shook my head. I had loads of ideas for names but none of them seemed right. I knew I'd figure it out sooner or later tho.
