September 1, 6:30 AM
I got up and made some coffee, it's going to be a rough day, I'm running very late, it’s the start of the second week of college. On Monday I have the classes that I hate the most, I intentionally made it that way so that I suffer for only one day of the week, and Mondays are almost everyone's least favorite day. I get changed into my uniform (this place is very proper) and grab my book bag. I leave the apartment and jog to campus As soon as I get to campus I put on my headphones and get to class. I have 5 minutes and the class is 4 minutes away, I’m making good time. I get to class on time but I spot Sarah and Mille and immediately go the other way, I tried fixing things between us as soon as I found out we were going to the same college, but since they are total assholes they just said I deserved it then walked away, total bitch move. The bell rings and class starts.
7:50 PM
I'm going to be honest, I don’t mind that class, the teacher, Professor Wern, makes it pretty fun. As soon as I start packing up my stuff the Professor calls me over.
“Kel, after your classes I have something I want to talk to you about. I promise you aren't in trouble I just want to talk”
“Professor, my classes end at 4:45, are you sure you want to stay late?”
“If you can come at 5 that would be perfect, I have a couple of people I want you to meet”
“Alright, I'll be over here at 5.”
“Thank you, Kel”
“No problem, Professor” I start walking out of class and my eyes are immediately covered.
“Guess who?”
“Yumma?”
“Bingo! How are you Kel?” she takes her hands away from my eyes revealing herself, she has short black hair with an undercut and a slightly masculine face, but very rosy cheeks and a cute nose, she’s about 5’5 and is quite muscular.
“I'm fine, Professor Wern asked me to come here after classes, any idea why?”
“Nope, no clue, although they asked me too, I'll ask some of my friends and see if they have any idea.” as soon as she says that she grabs her phone and starts texting. I wrap my arm around hers and start guiding her around campus to our next class.
8:00 AM
“Nope, nobody knows, but I do know that they invited a few of my friends, so I guess we will wait and see.” now I'm curious, I take out my phone and text Leo, maybe he knows, but I'm not expecting an answer since his classes start at 9:30 and he gets up at 9. I put my phone as soon as the bell rang, but the Professor isn't here yet, it's weird because Professor Montgomery is super strict about being on time, I kinda figured that out when he scolded 3 kids for being late on the first day, but now he’s late, how hypocritical. 5 minutes pass by, and Yumma looks at me worried, but then the class phone rings and Yumma picks it up.
“Hello? Student speaking” there's a pause before she starts speaking to the other side of the line,
“ok, mhm yup, alright thank you for letting us know, ill let everyone know. Ok, have a good day Ms. Manik” she puts the phone down.
“Class is canceled for the next two weeks due to Professor Montgomery having a family emergency. The college doesn’t have enough substitute teachers. Enjoy your free hour.” The class begins to start packing up and Yumma grabs her stuff.
“What the hell.”
“I don’t know, If I did I would tell you, Yumma” she sighs.
“I don’t have any more classes, I'm going home”
“Alright Yumma, be safe.” Yumma has had a hard time with people when she’s walking home.
“I will, thank you, Kel” I wave goodbye and start packing up my stuff.
8:15 AM
When I get home I hear some music and the shower running.
“Kel, is that you?”
“Yes, Leo, who else would it be?” I laugh
“Join me?”
“I guess, I was too rushed this morning to take one anyways” I head into the bathroom, start undressing, and then walk into the shower. The shower is pretty big and the shower head is huge. As soon as I step in he is rinsing the shampoo out of his hair. He noticed that I got in, he looks over his shoulder and smiled,
“Hey, babe. Why are you home right now, don’t you have class?”
“Hello my love, I’m home because my Professor has a family emergency and the campus doesn’t have any substitutes.”
“Oh, that makes sense, I'm glad your here.” I walk over and start rinsing myself, but as soon as my hair gets wet I feel a hand grabbing my ass.
“Babe.”
“Sorry, how did that get there” He takes his hand off, kisses me on my forehead, then smiles. He steps out of the shower.
“I’m going to make breakfast what do you want?”
“An omelet would be perfect”
“Alright.” This is one of the very many reasons I love him.
8:30 AM
As soon as I stepped out of the shower, I dried off and put on my clothes from the morning.
“Kel! Breakfast is ready!” I step out of the bathroom, close my eyes and enjoy the smell of the breakfast he made, even though I’m better at cooking, he’s not that bad. I head into the kitchen where Leo is waiting on our dining room table (meant for 4) with his eggs in front of him and an omelet in front of the empty chair. I sit down and take a bite, it’s heavenly, I can taste the chives but the taste isn’t too strong, I can also taste the turkey slices and the slight hint of pepper. It’s so well-balanced that it’s perfect.
“Do you like it?”
“It’s awesome! Who taught you this?” He chuckled
“From you, who else?”
“I didn’t teach you anything-”
“I watched you cook”
“Oh,” he laughed, and took a bite of his eggs,
“Your right, these are fucking phenomenal”
“That’s what I’m saying, you must be pretty good at observing.” He took another bite and then started talking about drama and gossip. While he’s talking, my thoughts start to wander. I seem to be pretty lucky to even talk to Leo. Most of my friends don’t know I’m dating anyone, much less know I’m even dating Leo. Just like in high school, Leo is as popular as before, I can’t blame him, he’s your ideal guy, smart, athletic, and good-looking, sometimes I wonder how I landed such a great guy, I mean I'm just an ambivert nerd who has major daddy issues, nothing special (I don’t think) but I guess he loves me for me so I’m not going to stop him.
