The next day arrived quite fast. I sat on my bed, changed out of my pajamas and into a black and white tank top and matching shorts then ran downstairs. I walked into the kitchen and found no one. Confused, I walked farther into the kitchen and saw a plate with pancakes and a glass of juice on the dining table.


Besides the juice, there was a note folded neatly. I took it into my hands and read it.


"Here is your breakfast. I made your favorite pancakes. There is syrup in one of the cabinets. I'm not around, I've been called at the coffee shop. Urgent meeting. I'll be back later. Enjoy your breakfast and have a wonderful day."

-SHAWN


I sighed and took another look at the food. Placing the note on the table, I walked over to the cabinets and picked out the chocolate syrup. I sat down and began munching on my pancakes while scrolling through my phone.


A few minutes later when I was done, I placed the dishes in the sink, washed them and walked over to the table where my phone was. Picking it up, I find a message from Lamar.


Lamar:

Hey Elle. Just wanna tell you that

I'll pick you up at 10am sharp.

Is that ok with you?

Me:

Hey.

Sure, you can come at 10.

I'm actually ready now but

come at 10.


Lamar:

Okay.

See you then >3


Me:

:)


I turned off my phone and ran upstairs. I only had ten minutes so I packed water, spare clothes, my phone and other essentials into my duffle bag.


Soon, I heard the doorbell and I ran downstairs after locking my bedroom door. I swung open the front door and smiled at him. He smiled back and began walking. I trailed back after locking the door with my house keys. I knew Shawn had his own house keys so I didn't hesitate to lock.


Stepping into the car, I put my bag at the backseat before turning to look at Lamar who was set and ready to go.


An hour later, we arrived and entered the building. Lamar opened the door to the dance room and we immediately got to work.

At lunchtime, we stopped and caught our breaths for a few moments before leaving the room. Lamar led me to his kitchen where he began cooking. I sat on the chair by the counter and watched as he skillfully chopped the ingredients. Once in a while, he would wink at me then continue.
