"we're just going to sit with you guys today." jack smiles. behind him sammy, johnson and nate followed his actions and took a seat. sammy plopped down next to nia with a smirks making me chuckle some to myself. Tre would probably kick his ass if he had this lunch. nia looks at him with furrowed eyebrows, waiting for an explanation. "i wonder why we've never been friends" he says curiously, still holding his smirk. "because you do dumb shit, like trying to hit on a girl with a boyfriend" she states, referring partially to the kick back at his house friday night.
i heard about it all weekend. he kept subliminally flirting with her while tre was around. tre was too high to even be aware of what was happening. i'm sure he wouldn't have favored sammy's motives if he wasn't high.
jack looks over at them and chuckles while he lightly shakes his head. "oh come on. i said like nothing flirty." he defends. she dead pans in his direction and rolls her eyes. "i said like nothing flirty" she mocks in an annoyed tone. "okay listen saying you have a nice body is not technically flirting. it's called being uplifting and positive" he defends again. "just stop while you're ahead" she sighs, shaking her head. he goes on about trying to prove his point but i zone out when my eyes land on jack.
he was wearing a black hoodie and jean jacket with some jeans. he doesn't even have to try to look good, i think it's just a given. "what?" he laughs lowly when he turns to face me and sees i was already staring. my face heats up from being slightly embarrassed that he caught me staring. "i was just looking at you" i chuckle with a small shrug. "i'm insecure" he says playfully, covering his his face with his hand. "shut up" i roll my eyes at him making him laugh.
"you should come over after school, my mom misses you and wants to teach you how to bake cookies" he says making me smile. i missed katherine. the past few times i've been at his house his parents haven't been there or she's been asleep from working all day. "aw i miss her" i whine. "it's been like two weeks"
"she's always talking about you" he tells me. "always" he adds. "but i don't mind" _______
"okay now listen what we do next is measure everything out perfectly" katherine instructs after we've got everything we needed out. she seemed to be very well organized. the whole kitchen was like it's own world set apart from the rest of the house. you could tell she took a lot of pride in it, it was her own little world.
"why don't you start with that and i'm going to go make a quick phone call to david." she suggests, earning a nod from me as i watch her take a step out of the kitchen.
"are you surviving?" jack enters with a laugh after a few minutes of me measuring out all of the ingredients. "not alone. this is harder than i thought it would be" i admit, remembering how easy i thought it would be to make cookies from scratch. boy was i wrong. i definitely got my moms skills in cooking.
