The Boy Next Door

Chapter 5

Ranasia P.O.V
I just sat in my bed thinking about Thaddeus when my mom call me down stairs "okay I'm coming" I yell down the stairs.
"The Jones are having dinner over here tomorrow so I want u to clean your room and the living room tomorrow "
"Why do I have to clean my room if they're just coming over for dinner and what is everybody else going to be doing?"
She sighed before saying or should I say yelling in my ear
"you gonna clean that motherfucking room cause I said so and they doing what the fuck I told them to do now get the hell out my face and clean your room damn".

I sighed and walked off to my room. I walked in my room and seen that my window was open I seen Thaddeus walking in my view with and towel on I was looking at how the water was dripping down his fine chocolate chest when he looked up at me and smirked.
I didn't even know I was staring until I heard him call out my name. "Ranasia"I heard him say, which caused me to then stand there with a stupid look on my face because I knew I just been caught.
" You see something you like" he asked smirking while fixing his towel around his waist. Hell yeah I do, if only he knew....
" Yea, that picture right there" I said pointing across to his room making him turn around to look at too. I didn't even know what it was a picture of, I just needed an excuse.

Thaddeus P.O.V
"Mhm" I said. I already knew that she was lying but I decided to give the satisfaction of thinking I fell for it. Deciding that I wanted to talk to her a little bit longer, I walked closer to my window and leaned against the sill.
"So what you cooking for me tomorrow baby" I asked her and watched as she started blushing.
"Nothing. At. All" she said while laughing and still blushing.
"Really, you gonna do me like that" I said playfully in shock and holding my hand on my chest. She smacked her lips and looked away.
" I'll think about it" she said and rolled her eyes.

We sat at our windows a little longer until she stood up.
" I'll see you tomorrow" she said.
" Damn you don't wanna talk to me no more" I said with a hurt expression in my face she laughed and shook her head
" I do but I can no longer look at your shirtless body anymore" she said.
" Goodnight" she started to close her window
"Aye" I called out to her and she looked up at me. " Can I make a request?" "Which is" she said raising her eyebrow. "My favorite" I said and she titled her head.
"I'll think about" she answered and closed her window.

Ranasia POV

I walked down the hall to the living room and sat next to my mom.
"So what did you plan on cooking tomorrow?" I asked her.
"I don't know maybe lasagna. Why?" she said.
"What about fried chicken. I'll help".
" You never offer to help" she said side-eyeing me.
" why chicken" she asked.
"We ain't had it in a while" I said.
"We just ate chicken last week"Ramaya said from the other couch.
"And" I said.
"Fine you can make chicken" momma said and left the living room. I payed attention to Love & Hip Hop on TV when I heard Ramaya clear her throat.
" I know why you want chicken"she said and pointed at me with a dumb looking smile in her face.
" Why" I said not looking away from the TV.
"Because it's somebody's favorite" she said.
" I thought I already told you that it's not like that, ion even know him like that" I argued.
"Mhm whatever" she said and got up to go in the kitchen.
