Because of Joe

Chapter 8

Chapter 8
I broke away from his kiss and looked down at me feet. "I need to go." Joe takes my arms and hugged me close.

"Please I didn't mean to cross the line. I was just fueled with so much anger and..." I pressed the top of my head on his chest.

"Joe. I'll see you tomorrow." I opened the door and my hand slipped out of his.

There was a knock on my door and I rolled in my sleep. "Anne get up. It's almost 8." I covered my head with a pillow.

"Ilani I don't feel good. Just go on without me. I think I need to rest." I muttered.

"Okay. Just call me if you need something." she says and then she was gone. I checked my phone to see if Joe texted. Now I felt so stupid. I got dressed and hurried down the the stairs to my own kitchen. I took a bowl a cereal to the table and poured the milk. When I hear the Arctic Monkeys song One For the Road I knew Joe was calling. I put the spoon into the bowl and picked up my phone. "Hey." I said first.

"Morning beautiful." I couldn't help but smile and I switched the phone to my other ear while I held the bowl in the other hand.

"Same. Is that cereal I hear?" I hear him laugh a little.

"Yea." I was eating with my mouth full. Ugh embarrassing. "Oh." I felt my cheeks burn.

"Anne. I'm really sorry for what happened last night. I didn't mean to be a total creep." he says. I couldn't help but laugh at it.

"It's alright Joe. Just forget it. If you want we can go eat lunch out later." I sat down my the window looking down the busy New York streets.

"That be great. Yea." he sounded happier.

"I'll see you later."

"Okay bye Annie." he laughs.

"Bye Joey." I giggled.

Joe was holding my hand and I look up at him as we walked down the street. "Do you wanna go to the park?" I asked.

"Sure if you want to." he looks down at me and I kissed him. He smiles and puts his arm around my shoulder. I was still holding my ice tea and my phone in the other. "Just like our first date." I sighed dreamily and I caught sight of a few fans.

"Hi Joe and Anne. Sorry to bother you guys but could we get a picture?" A group of girls came up to us.

"Yea sure." Joe smiles and I moved to the side.

"You guys get together. I'll take the picture." I said pocketing my phone and taking one girl's phone. "Okay. Smile." I said and I took two pictures.

"Can we get a picture with you Anne?" They all chorused.

"Yea sure." I felt a little giddy because this was the first time I got to take pictures with a bunch of fans. Joe was grinning as he took the pictures. The girls went off and Joe wrapped his arm around me again.

"You got some fans." Joe whispers in my ear. I punched him on the side playfully.

"They only like me because you like me." I say.

"No. Your perfection and I don't like you. I love you." He kisses my earlobe and I push his face away. I start to giggle as he makes stupid faces.

"I love you." I look into his eyes and he kisses me while we walked. I laughed every time he did something stupid. He was adorable. I love this guy so much. Out of no where I kissed his cheek and he holds around my waist tighter.

"When is this fashion show again?" Joe was laying down on the sofa strumming his guitar. "Will I have to see you know who?"

"Yea...Hey you still need to apologize to him." I said putting down a plate of cookies. "Fine I will." He starts to play a song and I sit beside him holding up a cookie. He takes a bite and I shake my head to laugh. He starts to sung this random song and I wondered what it was.
