Love's a Game, Wanna Play? (Jonathan Toews)

Chapter 8

CHAPTER 8

I wake up to the sun peeping out of my curtains. I really need to invest in better ones.

I drag myself out of bed because Jessica and I are going out to lunch.

From my closet, I pull out a large orange sweater and black leggings to wear underneath it. Then I put a little make up on my face and I'm out the door.

Jessica and I decided earlier that we were going to the Cheese Cake Factory for lunch.

The ride is quick to the restaurant and I walk in.

"Table for Stewart,"I tell the lady behind the desk.

"This way miss," She replies.

She leads me to a booth where Jessica is sitting.

"Hey," Jess says as I sit down.

"Hi," I reply.

I grab menu to look at.

"So let's cut to the chase, what up with you and that Jonathan Toews?" She asks.

"Jess I don't want to talk about it," I tell her.

"To bad you are telling me, so spill!" She says.

I really do need to tell someone. I have been dying too.

"Well the other night he called me at like 10 to go to a bar," I say trying to make it sound like it isn't a big deal.

"Seriously? How do you get these guys?" She yells.

"Yeah so we hung out at the bar for a while," I continue.

"Get to the part where he takes you back to his place and you have sex!" She says.

"We didn't! Like I said we stayed only at the bar!" I defend myself.

"My name is Kate. What could I get you to drink?" The waitress asks.

"A sunkist," Jess says.

"Just water," I tell her.

"Okay I will be back soon," the lady says and walks away.

"Seriously? You didn't even make out in the car?" She asks.

"No! I barely know the guy!" I tell her.

"Anyways there is another party tonight," Jessica says causally.

"Oh no! I am not going back to another one of your parties!" I laugh.

"Fine! I will fly solo then," She laughs.

I see our waitress coming.

"Ok here is you sunkist and your water," The lady says.

"Thank you," I say as she walks away.

I take a sip of my water as Jess rambles about what I will be missing but honestly I don't want to go through what I went through last time I went to a party of hers.

The waitress comes backs and we give her our order.

Jess and I talk about a multitude of different things. From Amanda's baby to Agent Carter the new tv show.

Lunch quickly wraps up and we say our goodbyes.

I head out of the building and hail a cab. One comes up and I hop in.

"Where to miss?" The man asks.

"Target," I reply.

It takes few minutes to get there.

The cab stops and I get out. I am in and out of the store. Grabbed all the items I needed and headed out.

I decide to walk home with the bags. I take a second and put my ear buds in and press play on my phone.

Walking around Chicago I really realized how beautiful this place is. So many wonderful things happen here for so many people.

I make my way to my apartment building and drop the bags on the counter.

Walking to my closet I pick out some pj pants and a shirt. I quickly throw those on and go to the sink to brush my teeth.

Eventually I walk over to my bed and make myself of my comfy,cozy under the bed spread.
