chapter seven

"let me take a bath first" Joan said

"ok, I will wait for you"

Joan took a bath and just like he said he waited for her, he tapped the space besides him signaling her to sit down with him and she did exactly that

"popcorn? Nick asked

"no"

"hey feel comfortable, it's just the two of us" Nick said

"what made it look like I'm not comfortable" Joan asked

"the way you've sat, like a lady and it's just us two, so sit with your legs crossed on the sofa"

"need I remind you this is my place and I choose how to sit"

"exactly!, this is your place and I seem more comfy than you and that's not nice, so relax"

"can we just watch the movie"

"fine do whatever you like"

"and I plan to do so. movie now!"

and together they watched the movie.

a few minutes into the movie

"that guy sucks, am I right Joan" Nick asked

but Joan was asleep, he carried her to the bed and sat there for a while

"she must be tired, look at her sleeping so peacefully" he murmured to himself

he looked at her and remove hair strands from her face and smiled

"look at that cheeks of hers maybe I should pinch one" he murmured and laughed to himself

"how silly of me. hey silly girl I'm glad you stood your stand and choose this college, but of course I won't tell you this" he silently said to himself

it was morning and Nick had washed down, he wrapped a towel around his waist and came to Joan's bedroom

"hey wake up! don't you have class today"

Joan woke up to meet Nick in her towel, she immediately opened her eyes and said

"that's my towel and my shampoo smell on you"

"good morning to you too"

Joan looked at him from his head to toe

" did you take a bath here and did you use my towel"

"first of all I'm offended by you, i mean I'm standing here with my nice body wrapped in only towel and all you care about is me using your towel and shampoo?"

Joan took a second look at him and said

"so?"

"you know what forget it and yes it's your towel"

"why didn't you wake me up, I would have given you a new one"

"you were sleeping so peacefully and I didn't want to disturb you and oh incase you haven't looked I tried to find one in your closet and you know me when things are not within my reach as soon as I get there, I give up and so I decided to use yours after all you..." Nick said

"I'm what?"

"nothing, all I'm saying is I used it so you get yourself the new one" he said and left

"uh!! I hate it when others touch my things" Joan said and walked off

after Joan taking a bath and eating breakfast with Nick

"are you ready for class" Nick asked

"yes"

"ok see you later, I don't have class today so I will hang around for a while" he said

"here? Joan asked

"yh, I want to stay here for a while, run along before you get late and come as soon as you close I will make us something to eat ok bye"

"bye"
