Andrew unlocked the door to his apartment and helped me with my suitcase.

"Your place is really nice, do you like stay here alone?" I looked around and examined his pretty house.

"I guess but I'm almost like never here because I have the boot camp. I figured that since I'd be going to school here too, might as well get an apartment. You know me, I've never been one to stay in college dorms" He said

"Alright" I followed him into his bedroom. I jumped on his gigantic bed and felt all of my back pains dissipate.

"I'm guessing that you're tired from the flight. I went grocery shopping earlier so I can cook you up something. What do you want?" He asked

"Um, I'm really craving a chicken salad and maybe with some mashed potatoes" I said

"Alright, you can take a shower while I go make your dinner" He stepped out of the room. I didn't move an inch from the bed because I'm like so tired.

"I forgot to buy the most important thing when making a chicken salad" He said

"Celery? cherry tomatoes? You know, it's not important to put them in" I said

"No, Chicken" He said

"Wait, you can actually run out of a chicken? I thought it is a necessity in the house and should never be used till the last drumstick?" I said

"Where did you hear such a crazy thing?"

"I don't know, I think 'How I met your mother' or so" I said

"You really need to start watching better television" He said

"Yeah, I'm not taking advice from a guy who only watches football and news" I said

"I'm going to head out a bit, don't answer anyone knocking on the door. I have my key with me so I won't knock" He said

"Don't worry, I have no plans of leaving this bed anytime soon"

"Alright bye, I'll be back soon with the chicken"

I don't know if I over slept and Andrew came back and is already cooking but his alarm clock is showing 8:45pm and he left since 7:45.

I got up from the bed and went out of the room. Everything was exactly the same way it was when I got here.

"Andrew?" I called out his name but there was no reply. Maybe he's stuck in traffic or something because there's absolutely no other reason why he wouldn't be back yet.

I'm really starving. I think I'll order some takeouts because if I go to sleep feeling like this then I'll definitely not wake up tomorrow.

I looked around his house but didn't see any fast food flyers. Wait, I think I saw a chicken place when we were coming back from the airport.

I pulled out my phone and searched for nearby chicken places from my current location.

I used my credit card to pay for my meal. Stupid Andrew, you invite me over then leave me all alone and not pick up my calls.

I switched on my TV and tuned in to 'How I met your mother" I don't care what Andrew says but I love this show.

I don't know how long I waited for him but the last thing I remember was falling asleep on the couch.

I exhaled deeply as my back felt so good on the soft texture of the bed. How can a bed be so soft? Wait, I vividly remember falling asleep on the couch.

I opened my eyes and looked around the room, there was no sign of Andrew. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth then I opened his room door and went out to the living room.

He was in the kitchen cooking something. Why does he have to be shirtless? Now of all times. I'm supposed to be mad at him but how can I possibly concentrate?

"So where were you last night? You know, you didn't have to invite me over if you know you're not going to appreciate my presence" I said

"I'm sorry Jules, something urgent came up and I had to attend to it"

"Did that something collect your phone or forbid you from returning my calls?"

"No,I.."

"I guess it's nice to see that I'm not as important as I think I am" I turned around.

"Jules, wait, I'm sorry, ok? Please let me make it up to you and take you on a date" He pleaded

"No, I won't let you off that easily" I folded my arms

"Please, I'm sorry" He smiled at me.

"You're lucky that you're boy pretty" I said.

He pulled me towards him and I hit his rock hard chest. My blood pressure started rising as I felt his masculine energy on my body.

"One month apart but I still have a huge effect on your body" He cupped my chin and raised up my head so that I was looking directly into his eyes.

He leaned in and enclosed my lips in his. I felt all of my senses and worries fly out of the window as his lips devoured mine.

He pulled my bottom lips with his teeth and sucked on it. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me up. I stepped out of my flip-flops and on his foot.

I lose all of my senses whenever I'm with Andrew and I'll be damned if I decide to leave him.

I know I came here to see if he still loves me and end things with him because I can't survive a long distance relationship.

Honestly, I'm not sure if I'm ready to give up on him.

We pulled away from each other to catch our breath.

"Do you smell something? Is something like burning?" I asked

"Oh no, the omelette"
