“Shopping for the house. She just wants everything to be perfect for me, for us”. It was the truth. I’ve never wanted for nothing in life. She’s always made sure I had everything I needed.
“She seems cool for a grandma” She laughed stopping outside the coffee shop. “It’s not starbucks but it does the best coffee”.
“You had me at coffee”. Unclipping my seat belt I got out and we headed inside. It was small but it was cosy.
“Til get the coffee you find a seat”. So I did I found us the perfect little booth in the back right next to the window. I loved people watching. I loved to know what was going on around me. As I was watching the world go by my heart s k i p p e d a beat when my eyes landed on him.
Jake.
And he was coming in here but he wasn’t alone.
“1 didn’t know what you take so I brought everything”. Placing the cup in front of me I added sugar and some milk. I knew he was watching. I could feel him staring straight through me. “Hope you don’t mind my friend Lacey is going to join us. Taking off her sweater she sat it on the back of the chair, I matched her movement removing mine along with my hat and gloves.
“That’s cool I’m always up for meeting new people”. I made the biggest mistake, I looked over. My eyes caught his but this time I looked away straight away. I didn’t like that he had a girl sitting on his lap. I had no idea why I didn’t like it. I didn’t even know him. I was feeling jealous and that wasn’t me.
Why was I feeling like this?
“Just ignore him”.
“Huh?” I asked my eyes connecting with hers.
“You haven’t stopped looking at him since he walked in. My brother has that effect on girls Leah, please don’t fall into his trap”.
“It’s not that it’s…
“Hey girls”. this mop of blond hair took the free seat next to Alanna. “It’s going to be a cold winter this year”. Taking off her jacket she smiled at me. Tm Lacey it’s nice to meet you Leah “You too”.

*I’m going to get coffee and then you can continue your story about how you’re not staring at Jake” She smirked, my mouth fell open. How did she
in fact how did she hear any of our conversation? I was lost for words. Bringing my cup to my lips I took a sip. I was getting hungry and I really wanted some sugar. As if she read my mind Lacey came back with 3 chocolate m u f f i n s. My stomach rumbled at the
sight of them.
“Dig in by all means”. Taking her seat both girls stared at me as I bit into my m u f f i n.

“What?” I moaned my eyes closing as the taste of chocolate hit my tongue. “I’m a sugar jun k i e I can’t help it”. Licking my lips I drank some more of my coffee.
“Oh we’re going to be great friends’ Lacey winked “Now continue talking about Jake and your staring”.
“I wasn’t staring”. I huffed both girls gave me the bulls h it look. “Okay I was but it’s like I can’t help it. It’s weird this has never happened to me before it’s like 1 can’t look away”.
“Oh go d”. Lacey side eyed Alanna but it didn’t go unseen. “Got the bug already and you’ve only been here a day. They both started to laugh but I had a feeling they were hiding something.

“I don’t even know him and I feel jealous that he has a girl in his lap. This isn’t me”. I hated it. I was never the jealous type I never have been. I wasn’t that kind of girl. If I was with a boy then I trusted that he was with me and only me. I didn’t see the point in being jealous.
But this was different. I don’t know what was going on with me.
“Think I’m due my period”. Huffing I began to eat the rest of my mu f f i n. Never once did I look back over there. No matter how loud they were being or how much my body wanted to I never did. I
“I’m going for a refill you want another m u f f i n?”. Alanna asked as she grabbed my mug. I wanted to eat the whole da m n shop but I decided against it.
“No I’m good with just coffee”.
“He’s got a good heart”. Lacey pipped up causing me to look at her. This was the second time I had heard this. I wasn’t interested in him and I was never going to let myself get into that position. By wha Alanna just said her brother sounds like a player.
“Tm not that kind of girl”. I shrugged. And I wasn’t. I didn’t sleep around. It took me a full year before I slept with Tommy.
“I know but I’m guessing you may just be what he’s been looking for”. Winking at me I glanced over at him. The girl was no longer on his lap and he was glaring at me.
He looked p i s s e d off.
“Okay after we drink these we’ll go do some shopping and then we can pick up some booze for tonight”.
“What’s happening tonight?”
“We go to the beach on Fridays. Drink some beer, light a fire basically just have some fun and cool off for the weekend. You in?”.
“There’s a beach? I grinned feeling excited already.
“Yes” Alanna looked at Lacey and then they both looked at me.
“I’m from Florida the beach was my life. You can bet your sweet a s s I’m in.
“Lets go start our weekend early then”.
