“Okay baby!”
“What’s his problem?” I heard Maddy ask on my way up.
“He’s just happy, child. You should try it sometime,” I heard my mom answer as I shut my door behind me. I looked down at my mom’s cell phone in my hand.
The phone rang a couple of times before Jules answered.
“Hello Elliott Gray.”
“Hey Jules. How did you?”
“Because I just knew.”
“Cool.”
“Why did you just run off earlier?” She asked.
“Because I don’t want to bug you Jules.”
“Oh,” she laughed, “Sometimes I don’t mind being bugged.”
“Really?” I asked surprised. “What a complete one eighty you’ve done on me from the beginning of the week Jacobs. I don’t know what’s gotten into you but I like it.”
“Well, I’ve decided that you’re worth dropping my defenses for. Consider yourself lucky because I’ve never done that for anyone at Bluefield, except for maybe Sawyer.”
“I consider myself very lucky babe, but not because you’ve dropped your defenses.”
After another two hour conversation of talking about absolutely nothing yet everything that seemed important I had to let her go.
“Jules, I gotta’ go.”
“I know, me too. That’s okay. We’ve got tomorrow.”
“Alright, see you tomorrow.”
“Bye Elliott.”
“Bye Jules.......Oh, Jules?”
I waited for a while but no answer.
“Shoot. She hung up.”
“No, I didn’t.”
“Why didn’t you answer me then?”
“Because I was waiting for you to say whatever it was you were going to say.......So?”
“I forgot now.”
We both laughed.
“Bye Jules.”
“Bye forgetful.”
I hung up the phone and swiveled my chair toward my bedroom door. Smiling at how things can change so quickly in such a short period of time. I didn’t forget what I was going to ask her. I just decided it’d be better if it waited until the next day.
