Cowboy Caleb🤠: What are you wearing?

Me: Who dis?

Cowboy Caleb🤠: ***Actual Eye-roll*

Cowboy Caleb🤠: Do you want to know me Arie?

Me: I thought I was asking the questions.

Cowboy Caleb🤠: I'm sure you did. Do you miss me?

Me: What if I do? Will you run to me?

Cowboy Caleb🤠: For my Arie I would crawl.

Me: Yours?

Cowboy Caleb🤠: Arie is mine I'm all about manifestation.

Cowboy Caleb🤠: Sorry that was meant for Jesus.

Me: 🫣🫣 I really cannot with you. Cheese ball! 🧀🪤

Cowboy Caleb🤠: 🤷🏽🤷🏽...Come outside.

Me: When?

Cowboy Caleb🤠: Now.

I look over at Bryce who is engrossed in the Netflix series we decided to binge.

Wtf?

I stand from the couch and walk out into the entryway.

I carefully push the window curtain aside and Caleb is parked outside sitting on the hood of his car. I flinch away from the window when he looks in my direction.

I quickly look at my reflection in the mirror hanging above the table.

Ok. My hair is a frizz ball because I didn't dry it properly after my shower with Tee. I survey the rest of my body slowly.

Pajama shorts with stars, plain white shirt and powerpuff girls fluffy pink slippers.

Hm. Not fucking ideal.

There is a sudden knock at the door behind me and I nearly leap from my skin.

"I saw you through the window. Open up shortie."
