"Waffles, Pancakes or Omelet?" I ask Jordan.

I'm letting him stay in my apartment with me and grace until he finds a place. But I don't think he's in any hurry because he's been here for two weeks now and doesn't even know what neighborhood he wants to look at first.

"I'm meeting with a real-estate agent today in midtown." Jordan says.

"Okay. Can i come."

"Please do i won't be able to make a decision without you."

I smile and kiss his cheek.

I know what your thinking man she moves on quick. But i don't see Jordan like that and I think that's my problem. He obviously sees me as more but I can't see him as more than a brotherly figure. Yes we've been sleeping in the same bed but that's all we do. we sleep. Yes i kiss him occasionally but only on the cheek or forehead.

"So this is the kitchen. My second favorite part about this penthouse. Just wait until we go back into the great room." The relator says.

"I like it" I whisper to Jordan

"Me too." he whispers back and continue to follow the lady into the great room.

Walking into the great room Im in awe at the huge glass wall that goes all the way up to the second floor. The dark hardwood balancing it out perfectly and the glass stair case.

"Oh my-" I say

"Lanta." Jordan gawks at the perfect view of atlanta.

"How much?" I say without even thinking. This isnt going to be my house i'm here for Jordan.

"1,648,000$." She says.

"Okay good talking to you thank you!" I say and walk towards the door.

"I'll take it." Jordan says.

"What?" I turn around.

"Great come in here and let's sign some papers." The lady gets out a pen and hands it to Jordan.

I stay in the great room looking out at the amazing view of the city.

I look around and strangely feel at home here. I know that this feeling must go away because I know i'm not going to live here. This is for Jordan and probably temporary because he hasn't told me other wise.

"You like my place?"

"I think i might love it more than you." I say but then realize what I just said.

"I mean, I um... Not like that kind of like a brother." I say.

Jordan just smiles it off and says.
"You said you love me."
