"So where were you today?" Jerome ask me as he sat in my house eating my food.
"None of your business and is that my kale salad?" I asked him as he looked down at his plate.
As if he don't remember eating anything.
"Oh yeah it's bomb but what I want to know is why you coming in here with them same clothes from yesterday...oooh did you not run away this time?" Jerome says and I roll my eyes.
Grabbing a mineral water from my fridge I sit on the couch and watch the show he was watching.

"That's my boy see I knew you could snatch her up Kid that's all you had to do now did you or did you not break that back?" He says and I roll my eyes chuckling.

My beautiful queen I miss you already have lunch with me...~P
Smiling to myself I didn't realize my phone ringing.
"Ms. Simmons you have a call on line two..."
"Hello?"
"So do you like the flowers?" His voice instantly makes me feel butterflies.
"Aren't you supposed to be teaching?" I say smirking as I twirl the phone wire on my finger.
"It's a morning assembly to talk about fire safety and a bunch of other things and I got the write up about it I rather talk to you and see if you're going to have lunch with me?" He responds and I chuckle.
"I go to lunch at 12:30 p.m. usually with Toni or my mother..."
"Okay cancel with them today I don't think they will mind...please I have a suprise for you..." He says making a bit excited.
"Okay where should I meet you?" I ask.
"In your downstairs lobby...Alright Lena baby I got to go the assembly is just about over and I got a music class to teach see you later..." He says with a smirk I can sense it.
