After Justin's cleaning crew came and helped us, we finished in about two hours. Surprisingly nobody really left a mess, although people just love spilling drinks. I had to wipe down a table like 3 times before I could fold it up and put it with the rest of them.
We also took all the food back to my apartment, it's all my family has been eating for the last couple days. I'm tired of it. Anybody who lives near has been eating this for the last couple of days, people love my mom's cooking. Even Aaron eats this stuff everyday, coming over once a day for a big bowl.
And just like every other day, he's right on time for another serving.
I walk over to the door to open it up for him, greeting him with a simple hello.
"Back for more I see." I start up some banter, grabbing a bowl from one of my cabinets.
"Of course, plus seeing your pretty face everyday is just a bonus." He adds in despite my father being a couple feet away from us. That was ballsy I'll admit. He's really flirty lately, maybe it was my dancing. I'll never do it again.
"Ah I see, complimenting me so I don't spit in your food. Nice try." I respond as I pour his food in, most of it is almost gone. There'll probably just be enough for today thank god.
"Ooh yay, we're almost done with the pot. No more pozole for me." I add in, bringing both our bowls to the table, I sit next to him because the other chairs are full of gifts I haven't opened. I should probably get around to that.
Just as I'm adding in my tapatío to my pozole, I hear the Snapchat ringtone play from my pocket.
I set down my spoon into my plate and see the name that I set up for Justin across my screen. Aaron looks over to it seeing the name "J😍💕" , which could be anybody really. I know three people with names that start with J.
I ignore it while I'm at the table, I know damn well whatever he sends will be inappropriate to open up in front of him. So I pick up my spoon and continue eating.
The ringtone keeps going off, Justin probably trying to get me to come over. He can't get enough of me.
"So who's J? Is it Jason?" Aaron asks looking down at his plate, trying not to look jealous.
???
"What, no. It's uhh... Jess." I reply, taking in another spoonful just so I don't have to keep talking. Why does he care? I told him very clearly that I only want to be friends. We tried being more than friends a while ago, but after I got black out drunk at that one party we attended together, he distanced himself. I guess he saw a side of me he didn't like.
But now he's all up in my business again, trying to get closer to me. And I'm not feeling it.
"God I would kill for some pasta right now." I change the subject quickly stepping out of my thoughts. He's silent for a couple of minutes, probably wondering what kind of message were sent to me. I pick up my phone from the table and put it back in my pocket. I don't want to accidentally open up a sext in front of him.
"Let me take you out to dinner then." Aaron says out of no where, I double take a little at his words. Aaaahhhh, how do I reply to that without hurting his feelings?
"That's nice of you, but I don't have money at the moment." I lie, I got like $2000 dollars worth of cash from my party.
"I'll pay, I'm sure your dad would allow it." He adds in another reason for me to go, he's really backing me into a corner here.
