"Get off of me!" I squeal laughing like crazy.
"You know you like it" He replies. Making the bacca slurp sound Jerome does all of the time. Oh god did he really just do that? I put the Nerf gun up to his chest.
"I mean it. Get up Mitch." He rises putting his hands up as if he's being arrested.
"Don't make any sudden moves."
"Oh like this?" He stands there for a second and all of a sudden I'm scooped up from under my feet and being carried into the hall. He seems to do this a lot.
"Uh Mitch.. We're headed towards the lobby.. Don't you realize there are gonna be people there?"
"You betcha." As soon as he says that he puts his back against the door and pushes on the bar to make it open. Dear lord. We're headed towards the pool. He runs up and as soon as he reaches the edge he turns around and falls backwards still grasping onto me. I swim up towards the surface. A few seconds after I surface he does as well.
"What was that for, punk" I laugh punching him gently on the shoulder.
"You threatened me with a Nerf Gun. That's pretty hardcore dood, if I do say so myself."
"Well we're both soaked. Lets go and get a different pair of clothes on. Oh, and you're paying for the dry clean." It's not the warmest out so I start to shiver a tad bit.
"You look cold. Here" He says. I see him walk over and get a towel off the bench by the pool they leave out if you forget yours. He reaches over and places the towel over my shoulders."
Jerome walks through the door leading to the pool and he stops.
"So that's where you two were. I saw you being carried. I have no idea what happened. I'll leave you two alone now."
Good ol' Jerome
We just stand there for a second."You got a sparkle on your face from that glitter you carry around to put on peoples heads when they sleep."
He rubs his finger trying to get it off, then he stops. Instead of moving his hand off my face he leans in and kisses me. I loosen up. Letting him kiss me. Once he lets go our foreheads and noses touch.
"I think I love you."
"I think the same thing" I reply.
He moves and as soon as he does I push him back into the pool. Laughing I run off headed back off into the lobby so I can go back to my hotel room.
Before I reach the door I yell "Thanks for the towel!"
