i've known ruby for a few months now, he's an amazing guy. i'm so glad we're friends he's great company never fails to put a smile on my face. "you good mi amor?" he says pulling me away from my thoughts.

          "yeah, just thinking about you." i smile, looking up a him. "i'm always on everyone's minds but i'm glad im on yours because i'm hard to resist." he winks.

          "don't flatter yourself pendejo." i say as i get up heading home from another dreading day at school. "wait! i wanna walk you home girl." he yells, picking up his short legs to walk beside me.

          "you don't have to do that, i'm sure you have other places to be." i assure him. "nah, all my friends are occupied at the moment." he says swinging his backpack over his shoulder. "you live here?" ruby asks with wide eyes. "yeah, why?" i questioned.

          "i literally live 3 houses down, which means i can walk you to school and back!" he smiles. "only if that's okay with you." "i don't mind, i enjoy your company." i smile. "you do? i mean yeah i know." he smirks.

     we walk towards my front door and i look at him. "well i guess i'll see you at school tomorrow?" i say. "not just at school but in your dreams as well princess." he said kissing my cheek.

          his phone starts ringing. he looks down with annoyance in his face when he finds out who it is. "what's wrong?" i ask. "it's my friend jamal, he wants me to go see him." he sighs.

          "hey when will i ever meet your friends?" i question because i've never met them. "soon babygirl very very soon." he winks for what seems like the 20th time today and leaves my side on his way to meet his friend.
