Match | Keith Powers (EDITING)

9.0

I wanted to cook, for Keith and Rymia. Just because, I haven't cooked in a while also. I want to know if I still have my skills from high school

"Aw, Ebony. You didn't gave to do that," Rymia said walking into the kitchen.

"No, no, you been so stressed out with school and I wanted to make you something," I said,

"Ebony, I've been stressed out too. But you're cooking for Rymia," Keith commented

"Fight me, fight me now Keith," I dropped my kitchen towel, Keith started laughing and shaking his head.

"You better shake your head" I threw my towel at him

"Ebony..."

"What Rymia?"

"You didn't have to throw the towel Eb..." Rymia said

"I'm sorry," I said.

I finished cooking, I made chicken and vegetables.

"This is good, Ebony," Rymia said wiping her mouth with a paper towel

"Really?" I asked, she nodded.

"It is," Keith said

"Thank you Keith, I really appreciate it,"

I smiled. We finished eating dinner, Darius came over just to hang out with Rymia. Darius and Rymia are together, they made it official. And they have to be the weirdest couple ever. Like they're different but the same, it's interesting.

They were all hugged up, in the kitchen. "Awe, you guys are so cute," I said

"Thank you," Rymia smiled, she seemed so happy with him. We all sat in the living room and talked to each other. "I'm about to go into my room, real quick to plug up my phone," I said walking to my room. Keith followed me into my room, I knew he was going to follow me into my room.

"Why are you always following me?" I asked, plugging up my phone. I turned around, and Keith hugged me. It was so intimate, I felt butterflies in my stomach. I pulled back, we both looked each other. I was thoroughly confused

"Keith what was the hug for?" I asked, leaning on my desk

"I just wanted to hug you" he stated, I'm just confused on what he just said

"Keith, I can't" I laughed, "You give great hugs" He laughed

"Wow..." I rolled my eyes, I feel like Keith wanted to do more than. That hug, it's obvious that he was going for more than a hug.

"You always rolling those damn eyes, but its fine," He shrugged.

"You're a trip, I swear," I walked out my room, passed Keith

I was in Mr. Wilson's class, thinking about Keith. Wondering where he was because I haven't seen him in a couple of days. I was tapping my pencil on the desk. Then I felt a tap on my shoulder, I looked up it was this darkskin guy. "Hey,"

"Hey," I smiled, I was amazed on how handsome he was. "Do you mind if I sit here?" He asked pointing to the chair

"Oh no. You can sit here, like its not taken or anything. I'm sorry I'm just ram-"

"Rambling. Its fine," He smiled, and sat next to me.

"You look familiar.." he said

"Me?" He does look like I seen him before but not around here,

"Yeah, by any chance.. Do you stay in Atlanta?" He asked

"Yeah, I lived there," I answered

"You used to work at flying biscuit?" He asked, with a smile.

"Yeah....Ohhh I remember you, you were the guy who always use to come in and flirt with us,"

"Yeah, I mean there was a beautiful girl working there, " He looked at me. I started blushing "You're not bad looking, yourself," I said

"Thank you," He said, " So, what's your name?" I asked.

"Hunter, you?"

"Hunter, hunter. Ebony's the name," I introduced myself, he laughed. Mr. Wilson walked in and put the notes, on the board. I started writing, "Is he always late?" Hunter asked lowly

"Yeah, I'm surprised he even had notes prepared for us to take" I giggled. "You're funny, I like that," Hunter said

"Thanks," Then somebody walked in, it was Keith. "Hello, Mr Powers.. Take a seat," Mr. Wilson pointed over to the seats. I looked at Keith, he looked at Hunter and  I. Then turned away, "That's your man?" Hunter asked

"No, just a friend" I answered, I pulled my hair behind my ear. "He doesn't seem like a friend," Hunter mumbled, I looked down and continued taking notes

Class was over, and Hunter got up. "It was nice meeting you Ebony, until next time," He winked,

"Bye," I waved. I walked over to Keith who was putting stuff in his bag. "Hey Keith" I greeted,

"Ebony, don't act like you weren't talking to that guy in front of my face. And had the nerve not to say shit to me," Keith said bluntly

"Keith, are you serious? You're mad at me because I didn't say anything. " I asked, I was beginning to get angry.

"Nah, I'm just playing. But I have something to tell you tho," I Keith said, we walked out of the classroom. "What's going on? I asked concerned

"Nothing bad...I just wanted to tell you that I'm going to be in Cali next week to go shoot. Fear the walking dead but I'll be back that next Saturday," Keith explained

We stopped midway in the hallway, I scrunched up my face.

"Really? They might as well do it during Thanksgiving," I asked, but then again they do have families so that would be inconvenient. We started back walking

"Can't do that," He answered asked

"Oh okay. I digress, " I said holding my hands up in surrender, Keith shook his head and laughed. We walked out the hallway

A/N

Hey guys, I already know that you guys are going to be confused about the chapter, but you guys should read between the lines with the other chapters. And you'll get it..

I'm trying something different with this book, it won't be a regular romance book you see floating around on wattpad, if you carefully pay attention you'll see the difference.

But I'm done rambling, Thank you so much for reading and supporting the book. You're greatly appreciated❤
