Loving You Is Easy

Chapter 10

The next morning I woke up feeling so good and refreshed. I woke up and did my morning ritual; brushed my teeth, showered, did my hair, and picked out clothes. Today I decided to wear a black spaghetti strap crop top with some baggy flowery shorts and my hair straightened. After that I applied my make-up; foundation, blush, slight eye shadow, mascara, and top cat winged eye liner. When I was satisfied with how I looked, I grabbed my book bag and headed downstairs.

The house was empty today because Sam got the job and they said that she needed to start immediately and mom and dad weren't home because they needed to go back to work. So basically I was home alone, it kind of scared me a little because I really haven't gotten use to the house and the fact that it was pretty big didn't help.

Since I was done early, I decided to eat breakfast. I grabbed a bowl from the cabinet, milk from the refrigerator, and Captian Crunch (my favorites cereal ever) from the closet and whipped myself up some breakfast. Just as I was about to go get a spoon, I was scared by the doorbell ringing.

"Jesus Christ." I muttered under my breath. "Who would be ringing my doorbell at 8 in the morning?" I told myself as I went to go answer the door and just to my surprise Rob was at the door.

"Hey." he smiled at me. When he smiled at me, I remembered what happened last night. I must say I really didn't expect to kiss anyone my first day of school but I also didn't expect to meet Rob either.

"Hey." I smiled back.

"Need a ride to school?"

"Are you offering to take me?" I laughed.

"No Kath I'm not, I'm just at your house at 8 in the morning to see if you have a ride to school or not." he laughed.

"Well in fact I do need a ride to school, but its too early, come in" I opened the door wider. "I'm having breakfast, you hungry?" I asked.

"No, I'm fine thanks." he awkwardly smiled.

I nodded. When I went to go grab a spoon from one of the cabinets, I felt a pair of arms grab my waist and hug me from behind.

"Need something?" I giggled as I turned to face him.

"Yes, I actually do." he placed his forehead on top of mine.

"Yeah? What is it?" I closed my eyes and placed my hand around his neck.

"A kiss from the prettiest girl in the room." he said.

"You know I could take that offensively because I AM the only girl in the room." I laughed. "But I give you props for trying." I said as I leaned in to kiss him.

Okay I know I'm kissing him again, so what, he's irresistible. As we kissed he pulled me closer to him and held my waist tighter. I felt his tongue on my lips obviously asking for entrance, but I didn't want to go too far so I broke the kiss.

"I need to finish my breakfast." I whispered against his lips. I broke free from his grasp and sat on the counter and began to eat my cereal.

"Whatcha eating?" he sat down in front of me.

"Captain Crunch!" I yelled.

"Give me some." he opened his mouth.

"No." I took another bite. "I offered you breakfast and you rejected it so no."

"Come on don't be like that." he whined.

"Ahhhh." I yelled as I felt my phone viberate in my pocket. "Hold on." i told Rob. "Hello?" I said as I hopped off the counter not bothering to check the caller ID.

"Good you're up." I heard my mother say.

"What, you thought I'd sleep in?" I laughed as I leaned against the wall.

"Hope I'm your mother, remember." She laughed.

I loved it when my parents called me Hope. It just warmed my heart. "Ha yeah you have a point. Mom I gotta go, I'm still having breakfast, bye. Love you." I ended the call. "Robert!" I yelled once I turned around and saw him eating my cereal.

"I couldn't help it, Captain Crunch is soo good." he said with a mouth full of cereal.

"Well you finish that." I giggled. "I'm going to go look for my shoes and then we could leave."

He shot me a thumbs up. He's such a Goofball, I mentally laughed.

Once I put on my wedges, I ran down stairs into the kitchen to find Rob washing the dishes. Awh I mentally cooed.

I wrapped my hands around him.

"Whatya doing?" I giggled into his back.

"Washing your plates." he emphasized your.

"Nuh uh, last time I checked you were eating off that plate." I pointed to the sink.

"You seem taller." he turned to face me.

"It's the shoes." I wiggled my feet.

"And you're still not even close to reaching me." he teased.

I playfully rolled my eyes at him. "Let's go." I pulled on his arm.

"Im coming woman." he dried his hands off with a towel.

Once we got into his car, I immediately turned on the radio and one of my favorite songs was playing.

All I need's a little love in my life

All I need's a little love in the dark

A little but I'm hoping it might kick start

Me and my broken heart

I need a little loving tonight

Hold me so I'm not falling apart

A little but I'm hoping it might kick start

Me and my broken heart

"You know, you have a pretty voice." Rob complimented me.

"Huh?" I asked confused.

"You were just singing Me and My Broken Heart." he laughed.

Was I? I swear I thought I was singing in my head. "I was? Oh thanks." I slightly blushed. Only a few people actually knew I could sing, it wasn't something I would flaunt around.

"Do you like singing?" he asked.

"I've been singing all my life." I truthfully told him.

"You know one of my friends is in the music industry, I can give him a call if you want." He continued driving.

"Thanks but no thanks, I recently gave up singing." I stared out the window.

"How come? You're pretty talented."

"Personal reasons." I sighed, I was soon relieved once I saw the school.

"Oh." he replied obviously noticing how uncomfortable I was.

"Uh yeah." I awkwardly answered.

He parked the car. "Do you want to talk about it?" He questioned as he pulled the key out of the ignition.

"Not right now. It's a long story, I'm sorry." I unbuckled myself.

"It's okay, I understand." He unbuckled himself. "We should get going."

I nodded. I wasn't ready to tell Rob about my past, I was scared that he might judge me. I don't know when I'll be ready.

Anyways thank you for waiting! I already started chapter 11 so thats good! please vote and comment!
