Admiring Jesse

I stared down at the little cake. I could smell cocoa.


“That looks scrumptious,” Ruby said as all three of his friends leaned forward eagerly. “That didn’t come from here. Gonna try it?”


Biting my lip, I cut into it with a plastic fork and warm chocolate sauce oozed from the middle.


“It’s a lava cake,” Victor stated the obvious.


And an excellent one, I decided, as I put a mouthful into my mouth.


“You made a yummy sound. I want some.” Ruby picked up another fork and went to stab at my cake.


“Hey, hey, get your own.” I selfishly covered it.


“Don’t be so stingy,” Landers protested.


Rolling my eyes, I pushed it toward them and the three of them dived onto it like vultures on carrion.


“Oh, my God,” Ruby said, closing her eyes. “Whoever this guy is, he’s got it bad.”


I was starting to wonder about that myself, and as Valentine’s Day was fast approaching, I also wondered if my admirer would reveal himself on that day.
