I try my best
Eve
I thought you’d be having a little too much fun with Jay to be thinking about us
Yes, she knows all about our dirty dancing night on my first trip to Seattle. So does Leila, and they’ve been encouraging me ever since, even though I’ve not exactly admitted to having a few twinkling feelings for him.
Me
Not too much fun, just the right amount LOL
Eve
I think you’re nuts about him
Me
More like he makes me nuts, as in, driving me crazy
Eve
Can’t wait to hear all about it next week & I’m glad you’re having fun
Me
Can’t wait to catch up x
Eve
Me too x
Friday
The weekend is looming so fast, whenever I think about going back home to San Diego I feel a flutter in my stomach. It makes me nervous. Yes, it’s a nervous pang. And Jay is right, I don’t have anything to be nervous about with my folks and I’m probably just being a silly.
The truth is, I’ve saved money all my life, so I have enough to support myself while I embark on this new self-employed journey. It isn’t like I’m broke and have to rush out and get a job. I can always teach for different yoga studios and gyms as well if I need to, it pays well, and it still allows me to keep my own classes and my app running.
It’s something I’ve been wanting to do for so, so long.
I try not to focus too much on what is waiting for me back home, including getting my belongings back to San Diego, and just enjoy the last few days I have here.
The other pang in my stomach becomes more potent the more I’ve been thinking about Jay. We’ve had such a great time these past couple of weeks, and he’s gone out of his way to spend time with me and have some fun together.
I also can’t say it’s a bad thing when we have to be arm in arm and constantly touching each other during the dance lesson. We had a quick practice yesterday over at his place when he was on the fly. Thankfully, he’s marginally toned down thecha-cha-chabut throws one out every now and again. And I secretly think Markus is quite taken with us. Maybe because we’re both professionals in our fields of sport and fitness, and we’re willing to try new things.
And I want to learn. It’s the basis of everything.
“You two are going to have such fun at the wedding,” Markus coos at the end of our next lesson.
We worked up quite the sweat, and on a few occasions when Jay twirled me around and twirled me back into him and our bodies collided, I could feel the hard wall of muscle of his chest. The same situation arose on his abdominals when I had to steady myself here and there and my hand reached for him, grazing those chiseled abs. My hand was saying a silent thank you, my lady parts seemed to be saying something else.
It was really hard to stay focused, but as always, Jay has plenty of jokes and jibes, mostly thrown in my direction, so I do a lot of laughing with him.
