Chp 7: Shopping
When Lena woke up the next morning she felt an arm and a leg over her. She opened her eyes and saw that her alarm clock read 12 p.m. Damn I slept so long. And what is this? This woman sleeps rough! Lena turned and looked at Stef who had her mouth slightly opened and was lightly snoring. Lena smirked. She grabbed her phone and was aiming to take a picture when she was startled.
"Don't you do that Adams"
"I…I…sorry…" was all that Lena could say. She had been caught and was embarrassed by it.
"Why are you trying to take a picture of me sleeping?" Stef opened her eyes and sat up .
"You just…I don't know"
"you can tell me what you're thinking Lena I'm not going to say your gross or think any differently of you."
"I just think you look cute sleeping." Lena hated yet loved the way Stef could read her. It was almost if Stef felt the same way but Lena knew it wasn't possible. Stef's heart belonged to Mike's which in the end broke Lena's. Lena wished with all her might that Stef felt the same way. But she had to face the reality. Stef had a son and a husband and she wasn't going to jeopardize that just for some assistant principle.
"Well thank you. What time is it?" Stef speaking brought Lena out of her though
"uhh. It is 12 in the afternoon."
"Damn! What time did we go to sleep?"
"I think it was like 2 a.m."
"That's 10 hours of sleep…"
"Well I was tired" Lena stretched out. "What are your plans for today?"
"Nothing really I guess go see if Mike is home…and you? You are just full of priorities" Stef smirked
"Nothing actually except I do have to go grocery shopping miss know it all"
"Oh okay…care if I join?"
"Sure but why would you want to go grocery shopping with me?"
"I don't know. It will give me something to do…"
"You're just using me to avoid going home" Lena looked at Stef who cracked out into a smile.
"Now that is not true."
"Yes it is that's why you are smiling like that."
"No honestly. I just wanted to see how a smart woman like yourself shops."
"Really?"
"Yes…is there a problem with that?"
"No, I suppose not…"
"Okay then! Let's get ready."
"Talk about bossy" Lena got up. "Do you want to shower?"
"Nah I can take one after you. I want some coffee first. You do have a coffee maker?"
"No Stef not at all"
"Okay well I didn't know so excuse me"
"You're excused" Lena smirked at Stef before grabbing some clothes and going to the bathroom.
After an hour and a half of them getting ready they left and went to the grocery store. The whole ride there, Stef did nothing but make Lena laugh. Lena almost went on the curb for laughing to hard but luckily she didn't.
"You could have killed us back there woman!"
"It was your fault so don't blame me. Do you need anything while we are here?"
"No mommy"
"Okay Stef. So when we are done here what are your plans?"
"Go back to your place, get my stuff, and go home. Why?"
"No reason I was just wondering if you would like to stay for dinner and a movie?"
"Are you asking me out?"
"No I just figured you could use some fun before going back home."
"Okay. What are you going to cook?"
"Not sure what are you in the mood for?" Lena was going down each and every isles getting the items off her list.
"Hmmm I don't know what can you cook?"
"Anything."
"Oh you're that good?"
"You will just have to see huh?" Lena smiled at Stef who returned one.
