Chapter 5 " Something Different"

Rock

Her smile was really contagious. It was something about her just really fascinates me.

I know once I tell her who I truly am she would probably no longer speak to me.

" you know you are sooo funny "

" yea back in school I was consider the class clown" I said sipping my beer.

" let me guess you probably cause all types of mess " she smirked.

" hell yea it wasn't like they wasn't teaching us shit anyways besides false ass information, like we celebrate Columbus who didn't discover shit "

" well I see you pay attention to that " she said.

" yea when I went to Pr- I mean uh the library " I said catching my slip up.

Damn I hope she didn't catch.

" so your read books " she said excitedly.

I ain't never seen girl excited about reading books.

" well y-yea sort of "

I was lying out my ass. I don't know why I couldn't be straight forward with her.

" finally someone who have the same interest as me .... n-not that it matter " she said looking down.

I can tell she was feeling me by the way she was eye-raping me at the garage.

To say I wasn't feeling her either was a lie. mamas was mad chill and sweet.

" anyways you never told me your actual job "

" oh I'm a journalist I work Windsors Public Works "

(This is made up, don't know if this real)

" oh I heard of them, they like some news paper company "

" sort of , it's like we write the stories and send them to top news paper companies hoping they put it in their paper "

" that's dope , you like it "

" it's ok , but you know you have people
that just think it's ok for them to just run over you or whatever "

By the way she sounds I can tell it was bothering her.

" you can tell me if you want "

" I-I'm pretty sure you wouldn't care "

" so you just going to assume that I don't have a heart , or I'm a caring person " I said pretending to sound hurt.

Her mouth drop.

" I-I'm s-sorry I-I just - "

I couldn't help the laugh itching to come out my mouth.

" I'm just joking Nia "

The look of relief and a smirk was on her face.

" I hate you "

" good to know " I said smirking.
