Jonah’s POV
Wow long day of work, if I see another toy car I’m gonna hurl. I reached the house and took out my keys. When I unlocked the door there was a certain smell that caught my attention. I quickly found my way into the kitchen when I was ambushed by Max
“Surprise,” Max said
“Ahhh,” I said playfully as I had gotten used to his many scares
“Dang I thought had hidden well,” I heard the disappointment in his voice
“Well you’ll get me next time,” I said as I kissed him
I saw a fade of sad of his face that quickly disappeared, I was going to ask him about it, but my attention was shifted to the full-dressed table of food and clean dishes.
“What’s happening,” I said observing the variety of foods at the table.
“I just wanted you to have a special night,” he said
“The most romantic thing you’ve done for me gives me a dead lizard,” I said
“ Aye I had to email an ex about that,” he said
Well this is like leaps ahead of that,” I said
“Well it’s all for you,” Max said with his traditional smile.
He took out one of the chairs from the table and invited me to sit
“For you my dear my gentleman,” He said
I sat down and looked closely it was my favorite foods
“How are were you able to afford this,” I said curiously
“I sold my body very lucrative,” he said
I looked at him with a serious face.
“I’m kidding, I found a little extra money , and had some time to make it look better than it actually is,” He said
“Oh, I said
“Let’s eat I have more planned out,” he said
“Wow more,” I said
Max and I started eating, it was delicious usually Max creates these out of these world creations that you would expect a 5-year-old to do, but this was perfect.
I looked up and Max was devouring his plate and noticed me looking at him and flashed me his signature smile which sent my stomach in knots. We both had great smiles as people told us.
“You good,” he said reaching his hand towards mine
”Yeah I'm doing awesomely,” I said grabbing and interlocking our fingers
And I’m being honest it was awesome
After dinner, Max pulled out a bunch of board games, connect four,uno, Jenga, and more.
I didn't know where he got these from, but it didn't really matter
“Which one do you wanna play first, He said
“Let’s play some Jenga,” I said
And just like that, we spent the next few 30 minutes just fooling around with all the games. A jenga tower fell on max and he commited a connect five on me, it was fun.
“UNO,” I said loud enough for the next door family to hear
“Yeah that plus four saved you, and so did those added skips,” He said
“I feel great, what's next monopoly, more food,” I said excited
“Well more foods sounds awesome, but I have a movie planned out ,” He said
He took my hand and we both walked toward the couch and he turned on the TV and pressed play.
It was memories of us together.
A smile landed on my face and spread its way to my ears
The clip was of me first teaching Max how to skateboard a few weeks back it was cute
Then it was me trying Max signature sandwich the “Mets” my face before trying it made a laugh come out, I was starting to wonder who had filmed these
The moment was weird usually Max would make jokes, but he was so in the moment, his eyes were watering.
I put my arm over neck and laid my head on his shoulder
He kissed my forehead
“I love you,” He said
‘Love you too,” I said feeling sleepy
The last clip I watched was Max and I going on our first date.
I woke up to an empty couch. Max must’ve went for a jog. I got up and got dressed and headed for the kitchen to grab a pop tart and leave. There was a note on the fridge, but I didn’t have time to read it, probably just Max asking me to wash the dishes. I left and went to work.
It's spring break, school has finally gotten off my back so I can do the things I really love like writing. Plus my school is done with all the SAT stuff so I have more time. But this story is coming to an end and I do have a sequel in mind
