Today’s Friday and I’m nervous as hell. Yesterday I asked Spencer if she wanted to come up to my apartment and hang out after our walk instead of just leaving with her mom. “She said “YES”.

It’s been a couple of days since the first time Spencer walked me home now it’s become a everyday thing. On the walk to my place we talk a lot, you know the usual girl stuff just trying to get to know each other. We’ve ate lunch with each other for the past two day’s and talked while working if I’m in her area. Everything’s nice and comfortable between us and I like her more every day.

Were in my apartment now and Spencer’s looking around at my picture’s and stuff just trying to get a feel for the place. I take a seat on the couch in front of the Entertainment Stand I used my discount at Mario’s just last month ago to buy. I grab the remote and turn on the TV. I guess Spencer’s done with her observation and she comes and sits a couple of inches away form me on the couch.

We stay quiet for a couple of minutes. I take my eyes off of what ever on the TV that I’ve been pretending to watch and turn to look at Spencer. As soon as I do, she turn’s and looks my way. We lock eyes and she smiles at me. “How long have you’ve been living her? It’s nice.” She says as she seats more back in her seat breaking eye contact to glance around my living room one more time before settling her eyes back on me.

“Thanks. I’ve been here for like six months. I like it, its home.”

“Do you ever miss living with your mom? I’m mean, don’t you ever get tired of the bills and doing over time at Mario’s?”

I look back at the TV when my mom is mentioned. She’s a sore subject that I wish not to discuss. But I answer her anyway.

“No, Things with my mom was and is way too complicated. The bills are not too bad compared to my mom and like you said I got Mario’s. I actually really do over time when I can because I’m saving up for a car.” I the say the last sentence and look back over at her. She’s just setting there playing with her hands but keeping her eyes on me taking in everything I say.

“A car,ah. Can I be your first passenger when you get this car?” She says and scoots closer and takes my hand in hers.

She’s holding my hand. My hand! I think I can’t breath. I need to answer her don’t I?

 I hurry up and collect my self and answer so she want no that just by touching my hand she got me worked up. “Well of course. Seeing as how you always walk with me, least I can do is be you chauffer for a while”

She’s rubbing her thumb over the back of my hand. “Thanks, and don’t forget you said that, cause I’m defiantly taking you up on that offer.” I just smile at her. She looks down at our hands that are lying on the couch between us then back up at me. “You have nice hands.”

 You have nice lips, eyes, hair very thing.

“Thanks.”

She starts to open her mouth to say something else but her phone starts to ring. She lets go of my hand so she can get it out of her pocket. She answers then a couple of seconds later starts together her things. She hangs up the phone to tell me her moms outside waiting and she’ll call me this weekend. I offer to walk her down stairs but she says it’s ok. So I just walk her to my door and she leans in and gives me a kiss on the check and says goodnight disappearing down the stairs.
