Kitchen Crush Saga

The next morning, I woke up and stretched in bed as I rolled over, smiling as the memory of the night before came rushing back to me.

Jenks. The guy that I was pretty sure was now my boyfriend, if a whole bunch of kisses, hand-holding and whispers about seeing each other at the dance were signs that we were official.

“Morning,” Kaylee said. “I’m guessing you had sweet dreams?”

“Huh?” I said, pushing my crazy morning hair back.

“You have the dorkiest smile on your face,” she said. “I have honestly never seen you looking so freaking cute.”

“Shut up.” I threw my stuffed soccer ball pillow at her, hitting her in the shoulder.

She laughed and threw the pillow back with surprising good aim, though I snatched it before it hit me.

“No. I will not shut up. You’re totally into Jenks and I love it. You’ve teased me endlessly about Declan so you deserve it.”

I had nothing to say to that.

“But come on; he’s the nicest guy and you two can talk about sports forever.”

We talked about sports zero the night before.

“So. Is he a good kisser?” she asked and then laughed again. “What am I saying? Of course he’s a good kisser. I mean, look at him.”

“You can’t tell someone’s a good kisser just by looking at him.” Can you?

She made a face. “Maybe not. But I’m glad he is. I guess you and him are an item now?”

“Yeah, seems that way.”

“What about Shane?”

“I’ll have to tell him.”

“Just as well you’re not in the kitchen anymore. That would be awkward.”

Except that I really wanted to be back in the kitchen. Especially after talking to James about it the other day; I’d been reminded how much I enjoyed cooking and now that exams were over, I was really going to miss it. Although Kaylee was right about it being awkward.

“Yeah,” I said, reaching for my phone. I turned it on and, speaking of Shane, he’d sent me a text overnight, his message sandwiched between two from Jenks.

I read Shane’s first, forcing myself to deal with that before allowing myself to read my boyfriend’s (!).

Come see me in the kitchen today?

“He wants me to come down to the kitchen.”

“You should go and let him down easy.”

What I wanted to do was let him down easy by text.

“Celia,” Kaylee said, sitting up and leaning against the wall, facing me. “You have to tell him.”

“I know,” I said, looking down at my phone.

What time are you there? I sent.

On my way over now. Until noon.

See you soon, I typed. I looked up at my roommate and best friend. “So this is going to be weird.”

I was right about it being weird, but not at all how I expected.

After Kaylee and I got ready, we headed down to the dining room to grab some breakfast; I needed something to eat before I met up with Shane. And some coffee, definitely coffee.

Kaylee and I chatted a little about our exams and our friends—nothing really important—as I tried to psych myself up to go into the kitchen and talk to Shane.
