I can do this…I'm a grown man you know. Ok come on walk man walk…left right left yea easy does it. Tell her you need to talk about the Henderson case, just tying up some loose ends…yea that can work…or not. This is Jordan… Jordan.
He was standing outside her building for the last hour or so.
Come on last time you actually went in and spoke to her. Oh god the things I said. She looked at me with her sweet brown eyes. She thinks I'm completely bonkers…I do too.
Little did he know Jordan was watching him from the side. She bought groceries and at the sight of him stopped to say hi until she saw the look on his face. She was trying to figure out what was wrong with him.
"Nige? Is that you? What are you doing here?" This is the second time, he was here last…last Sunday.
"Jordan?" he said trying to conceal his shock. "Eh what are you doing here? Ha no I mean here outside? He said followed by a nervous chuckle.
"Well at times I leave the apartment for food, water you know stuff like that."
"Yes we all shop don't we?" Sensing that made absolutely no sense he tried to split just like he did last time but he was unsuccessful this time.
"Nige you need to do something for me ok, I feel that we're close enough for me to ask you this. Nigel are you in love with me?"
Sweet Jesus.
"Jordan…eh…" was all he managed to say before she cut him of.
Before he knew it she was laughing hysterically. "Relax Nige, I'm just kidding. God you must know me by now I'm evil but only because I simply adore you Nige. All right help me with these bags now."
She handed him a bag and he reluctantly followed her, his heart beating so hard he was scared she could hear it.
After she caught him there that one unforgettable morning Nigel had stopped hanging outside of her building. Now he merely watched her at work. Bug caught on to the happenings really fast and soon Lily was in the loop as well. He was glad on some level that Jordan at least was unaware; it made it somewhat more bearable.
