One month later..

Ellisa:

"No Myles that's not how you make it." I giggled at his attempt to make an omelet it was almost 10:30 at night and he wanted to learn to make an omelet out of all things

"I don't know how to do this shit man."

"This is the last of the eggs so ima do it this time." I said cracking the eggs into a bowl and added the toppings of his liking

"Well if it's the lovely couple." Ben said folding his arms coming into the kitchen smirking

"We're not a couple we're just friends that's enjoy each other company." I told him simply not looking up from what it was I was doing

"Whateva float y'all boat." He shrugged going to the refrigerator

"Ben shut up." Myles told him rolling his eyes slightly

"I'm just saying." He shrugged "Only other women he'll ever send flowers too is his maw let that shit sink in." He grabbed a Gatorade leaving out of the kitchen just leaving us alone once again leaving us to our thoughts. Making me sigh lowly while I finished off his food

"Here you go." I sat the omelet in front of him

"Thank you."

"It's not a problem." I went to clean up the mess and wash the dishes that was in the sink and dried them off and put them up

"You didn't have to do that I could've did it ." He said making me wave him off

"I like to help anyway I can, especially with everything you do for me I like to show my appreciation in the smallest of ways that means the most to people." I smiled softly

"What you mean what did I do?" He asked confusingly

"More than you know." I said shrugging it off

"What you doing this weekend?" He asked not digging more into it

"I don't know maybe stay in as always." I laughed a little as I dried off the counters

"Let me take you out somewhere."

"Somewhere like?" I asked out of curiosity

"Bali." He said as if it was around the corner

"Myles.." I trailed off with wide eyes "That's 10,000 miles from New York."

"I know." He nodded

"How would you know if I have my passport." I folded my arms across my chest

"Because when we was at your place it was sitting on your coffee table." He laughed at my face I made

"Fine." I moved my hair out of the way "But I would like to pay for my own things." I held my finger up because I knew he would want to pay for everything

"So you'll come no problem?" He put his plate into the sink trapping me putting his hands on the side of me

"Yes." I looked up at him threw my eyelashes

"Ellisa."

"Yes?"

"Look at me." He lifted my head by my chin with his finger

"Why are you looking at me like that." I mumbled looking down at my feet her once again he lifted my head to make me look directly at him

"Kiss me." He whispered

Getting on my tippy toes he met me half way kissing me softly making me almost melt into his embrace.

"Told y'all mothafucka's!" Ben yelled making us pull away and I put my head into his chest feeling my cheeks warm up
