Good morning. What time do you want me to pick you up? On Sunday morning I wake up with a smile on my face, when I read Jace's text. Whatever works for you I answer quickly. I text him back, letting him know that I'm ready when he is. Be there at 11 he says. Happy to finally see him again today, I get up from bed and make my way downstairs to the kitchen. I know it's only been two days, but when you're constantly around someone, you start to miss them right away.
Overall, I've had a great weekend. Like predicted, I spend a lot of time worrying about Jace and the things he might be doing, but I was able to distract myself decently. Jace texted me on Friday evening as promised, and also called me Saturday night. He didn't go to a party this weekend, he stayed home instead. I'm not going to lie, I was glad to hear it.
"Good morning sweetie" my mom greets me at the table, which is set with breakfast already.
"Morning mom" I say, smiling at her and taking a seat. "Thank you for making breakfast."
"No problem" she says, handing me a slice of bread. "Ready to go back to college?" she adds, making conversations.
"Surprisingly, yeah."
"Well, there is a certain someone making it easier for you to go back, am I right? When is he coming to pick you up?" mom smirks at me.
I grin back at her. "Eleven. And I'm kind of sad Ava is in Cali visiting Ryan, I would've loved to see her" I explain, trying to change the topic slightly.
"I'm sure she'll be here next time" mom reassures me.
We soon finish breakfast with a little bit of conversation, before I make my way upstairs again to get ready for the day. Since I showered last night, I comb through my hair and tame it with my straightener. I throw on my light blue straight cut jeans with a white a simple white sweater. Gathering all of my belongings that I need back at college, I carry my bag downstairs. I'm surprised when I hear chattering from the living room. I turn the corner to see Jace sitting on the couch next to my mom. My heart flutters at his presence.
"You're early" I say, as both of their heads snap towards me.
"Actually, I'm perfectly on time" Jace smirks at me. I quickly check my phone to see that it's 11:01am.
"Oh..." I drift off. Guess I must've lost track of time upstairs.
"Ready to go babe?" he asks me, coming my way. My cheeks start to heat up slightly, from the name he just called me in front of my mom. Silly, I know.
"Yeah" I nod my head back at him.
My mom comes up to me, engulfing me in a big hug. "It was nice to have you here sweetie" she says, pressing a kiss onto my cheek.
"It was good to be home. I'll see you in two weeks" I say, inhaling her scent for the last time. Maybe I'm just weird, but the smell of my mom always makes me feel like home.
