I'm watching you Jeremy Williams
I'm watching you Jeremy Williams
They were both at a few blocks from her place and it was time for her to take over and finally end their moment together.
"It won't happen again." She said indifferently before grabbing her keys from him. It had been the first time she cared from someone else's hair.
Jeremy didn't move away to give her a chance to enter so she raised a brow at him.
"Why are you still here?" She asked him curiously.
Jeremy hadn't returned home since morning. In fact, he had practically spent the whole day with her because he had even slept on her couch and after classes, he had also followed her to go meet David and back to the office where she helped him dry his hair and bought them both dinner.
He was beginning to get nervous about going home. Ellie was going to be really mad.
Chloe waited for him to say what he wanted to say and began to wonder why he looked nervous.
"I'd... like to cook for you." He blurted out less confidently.
Chloe raised arched her brow. "Cook? For me?" She asked carefully.
He bobbed his head up and down. "I was thinking if it would be possible for you to come over to my place after our classes tomorrow."
Chloe gave him a strange look which he couldn't decipher.
He wanted to cook for her? Why?
Other people always wanted her to do something for them. While Jeremy always wanted to do something for her, protect her, buy her snacks, now he wanted to cook. She just couldn't understand him and his real motive.
"Why?" She asked him.
It was quite surprising she wasn't very harsh like she always was. She was speaking calmly with her hands folded across her chest.
"Why?" He asked back in confusion. "I just... want to cook for you." When she gave him a suspicious look, he quickly corrected.
"I do not mean to say you don't feed well or anything. I just... want to cook for someone else other than myself and Ellie."
She looked at him for a while before shaking her head.
"I can't." She said before moving closer so he had to move away from the door. The rain had stopped falling a long time ago so they weren't bothered about getting wet.
"Oh..." Jeremy sighed in disappointment but didn't push her.
"I have a business meeting tomorrow." She added as she entered inside her car.
"So.. does that mean you can another day? Like the day after tomorrow?" He asked with a hopeful smile.
Chloe rolled her eyes at him but said nothing as she started the car. He took that as a Yes and smiled brightly as he closed the door for her.
"You can just tell me your favourite food tomorrow or whatever it is you've been craving for for a really long time. I'll fix it for you." He said and waved at her.
Chloe looked at him one more time without a word before driving off.
She shook her head and her lips involuntarily curved in a tiny smile as she looked at him through her rearview mirror before her car took a turn and he disappeared from her sight.
Jeremy stood there with his hands deep inside his pockets and a smile on his face. Who would have thought that there would come a time in his life where he would be this close to Chloe.
Someone he had always admired from afar and thought it was a pipe dream thinking he would ever talk to her one day. But here they were.
One day, he was sure he would drive her into her apartment and introduce himself to her family as her boyfriend. He was a very patient person. He could wait.
He turned around and almost got the scare of his life when he saw a car parked behind him with a young man resting on the car with his hands folded across his chest as he looked at him intensely.
He had been so lost in his thought that he hadn't realised when the car stopped there or how long he had been watching him.
He looked closely and recognized him as Chloe's brother, Leo.
He tried to act cool with everything as he approached him.
"We meet again. Hello!" He greeted first but as he looked at the young man closely, he could tell something was different about him aside from his hair which was neatly styled.
"Who are you?" Louis asked as he kept observing him.
Jeremy frowned. Why was he asking him that? Hadn't they met a couple of times already?
As if reading his thoughts, Louis introduced himself.
"I am Louis. King Louis. And I'm sure it was my brother you met."
"Oh! Shoot!" Jeremy exclaimed as he looked at him in surprise. No wonder Mia had kissed Louis thinking it was Leo. They were both so very similar. Super identical.
"I'm Jeremy. Jeremy Williams." He said politely.
"And why did you just drop my sister off, in her own car, close to her house, and is standing here?" He asked suspiciously as he eyed him up and down.
Jeremy scratched the back of his neck as he thought of the best way to answer so that Chloe would not get into trouble.
For some reason, he felt this brother was probably more difficult than the other one.
"We are friends. And classmates."
"Chloe doesn't have friends." He said immediately.
"She does. I'm her friend. I could be your friend also if you want.." He offered innocently as he extended a hand making Louis draw back and look at him cautiously.
"I guess you are also going to drop me off, stand and watch me drive off with a sheepish smile on your face while you stand in the middle of the road and not care that a car might come crush you because you are blinded by love." He said before shaking his head.
"Eww.. That's gross. Why would I do that?" Jeremy asked and cringed.
Louis closed his eyes and sighed deeply. This one wasn't very normal. He concluded as he got inside his car.
"I'll talk to you some other time. I'm watching you Jeremy Williams." Louis said before driving off.
