November 5, 2017.

"This is so good," Jordan moaned as he took a bite out of the dinner I had made for him and Quinn, which was a Terayaki Bowl.

"I made it with love," I told them with a smile as I dug into my bowl," I missed you too."

"We did too, we're totally in love with what you've done to the apartment," said Jordan as I smiled. I had finally bought a TV, a coffee table, a couch and all the essentials needed to tidy up this apartment.

"I wanted to wait till the warming but I guess you had other plans," I said with a smile as my phone vibrated, indicating it was Klay," did Klay mention anything?"

"He talks about you all the time, especially because you straight lag," Quinn said with a roll of eyes as I chuckled, shrugging.

"Yea, funny thing is that she laga on everybody, no matter who you are or in what situation," Jordan added as I nodded.

"I just been trying to not get attached," I said with a grin as the guys glanced at each other and rolled their eyes at me. I legitimately would lag on Klay, he'd usually tell me what he was doing to give me a reason as to why he was lagging but I just couldn't bring myself to get attached to Klay, I was afraid.

"Klay really likes you, Jan, are you finally realizing that now," asked Jordan, simply shrugging as he shook his head," you are so naive."

"Thank you, boo," I said with a little shoulder shrug as I glanced over to Quinn.

"So, you really don't plan on replying to Klay," asked Quinn with an arched eyebrow as I glanced down to see he had snapchatted me as well. Klay had added me from Jordan's phone because he loved showing me around the cities he would go to and including, what he ate or what he was doing.

"Fine, you guys are annoying," I said, turning on my phone and putting in my password to get into my phone," Klay is too good for me."

"Don't start with that," Quinn said as I went onto iMessage to see Klay's message.

Klay💥: Hey, beautiful. Was wondering if we can FaceTime tonight?

Leaving his message open, I went on Snapchat to see what he had sent me, opening it to see it was a picture of him smiling and in the caption, it said," I miss you."

Sending back a picture of me, grinning at the camera and putting the same thing but with a "too" on the end.

"Do you guys have practice tonight," I asked them as I placed my phone down, letting a yawn escape as they shook their head," then?"

"Game tomorrow, you coming, right," asked Jordan as my phone vibrated," you bet your ass we all want you there."

"If I'm not drowning in stress then, I will," I said as I looked down at my phone to see Klay's text message and the coach from USC, Clay Helton, texting me," holy crap, I for sure knew I would be leaving soon."

"What do you mean," asked Jordan as I opened up the text message, reading the dates.

"I'll be gone from the 16th to the 19th, USC," I said as I replied to him

Janelle M.: alright, thank you so much!

"Damn, Klay finna lose it now that you'll be surrounded by football players, one of your favorite type of athletes," Jordan said with a nudge as I chuckled, opening Klay's message.

"He'll be fine," I reassured him with a grin as I read it.

Klay💥: Hey, you good, beautiful?

Jan💛: why wouldnt i be?

"Who knows but we'll definitely see because I have a feeling he won't but hey, have you even told him," asked Quinn as I shook my head.

"No, because I didn't know the dates until now," I said as I heard my phone vibrate," god, I'm gonna need help on what to wear tomorrow because I'm running out of ideas."

"We'll help you out," Quinn said as he glanced at Jordan and nodded," lead us."

Grabbing my phone, I walked over to my room as I opened Klay's message.

Klay💥: I don't know, you're really not talking right now. Do you mind if we FaceTime whenever we can?

Jan💛: yes, once quinn and jordan leave, im sorry about that.

"Trouble in paradise," asked Jordan as he sat on my bed, shaking my head as I walked out of my room into my closet to look through it.

"Nah, he just asked to FaceTime," I said as I continued looking for an outfit. Collecting a few options, I walked back out and laid it out on the floor.

I had chosen a black sweatshirt, a vibrant red knitted sweater, a silk white button up, and a plain white long sleeve.

"We should FaceTime him," said Quinn as they glanced at one another and I rolled my eyes, shaking my head.

"No, I will once you leave," I said as I went into my drawers, checking to see what I could wear for the bottom, picking out some Tommy Hilfiger high waisted shorts, blue jeans that were distressed on the knees, and light blue distressed jeans.

"Man, I want to go clubbing to see turnt Janelle," said Quinn as Jordan and I chuckled, sitting down on the floor as I looked at my bottoms," she's lit as fuck."

"She's a mess," I corrected him as I placed the shorts under the red sweater, the light blue jeans under the button up and white long sleeve and blue jeans under the black sweatshirt," a hot mess."

"We'll see once we get to go to one but I like the red sweater and silk button up," Quinn said as I nodded, agreeing with him.

"Thanks, Q," I said as I looked at Jordan as he nodded," you guys can stay over if you're too tired to drive."

"Thanks but we actually have to go home today," said Jordan as I nodded, putting away the clothes I eliminated from my options," we'll leave so you and lover boy can FaceTime now, good night, bubu."

Walking behind them as we walked towards the door, I smiled as I gave them a hug," thank you for coming over, always welcomed here."

"Thank you, good night, Jan," said Quinn as they both walked out the door and I immediately took my phone out, sliding right on Klay's text, opening it up and going to his contact to press FaceTime.

Walking over to my room, I waited for him to answer as I yawned, watching as his face popped up on my screen," hey, beautiful."

"Hey, handsome," I said with a smile as I sat down on my bed, leaning against the wall," what you doing?"

"Laying here with Rocco, what about you," he said with a grin as I glanced over to my clothes.

"I chose my outfit for tomorrow's game, yes, I'm going," I said as he smiled widely," I can't find your jersey but I think it might be back at the house so once I get out, I'll go check."

"I was about to ask what happened to it," Klay said with a chuckle as I heard rummaging," I'm glad you'll be coming tomorrow, I can't wait to see you."

Smiling at him, I looked at him," neither can I, but I have some news for you tomorrow."

"Good or bad," Klay asked as he went to rub his goatee," god, I'm looking forwards to hugging you tightly."

"Depends on how you take it but I can't wait either," I said as I laid myself down, watching him smile," so, how was your day?"

"It was alright, how about yours," Klay asked as he laid down, as well.

"It was okay, Jordan and Quinn came over which made it at least semi-better than okay," I said with a grin as he frowned," c'mon, don't be upset, just not feeling good."

"Why's that, what's wrong," asked Klay as I simply shrugged; I just seemed to be having one of those days where you are sad for no reason.

"I don't know but I'll be fine," I said with an encouraging grin," we should head to sleep, you have a game tomorrow."

"You sure you are okay," asked Klay, nodding as he grinned and nodded," alright, will do, good night, beautiful."

"Good night, handsome."
