Talking Body

"So what's her name"? Jake asked.

Me and Blossom walked to the park, that's down the street from the high school. Then Jake and Carter met us there. I had already told Blossom all about Roper, it was their turn.

"Her name is Taylor Roper, but she mostly goes by Tay" I replied with ease.

"She sounds hot" Carter chimed in.

"You don't even understand. She is gorgeous, I've never stopped and stared at someone for so long, and that is including Lana Del Rey, and you know she is my Queen". I said to the mere mortals who haven't yet witnessed the glowing beauty of Taylor Roper.

"Whoa, slow down there girl" Jake said with a chuckle.

"No you guys, she's right. She is so sexy, and I'm straight". Blossom inputs.

We all burst out laughing. Well if Blossom who is straight as a pole, says that Roper is sexy, then you have no choice but to believe it.

Cause all of me

Loves all of you

Love your curves and all your edges

All your perfect imperfections

I hear John Legend in the background as I lay on my bed doing homework.

Who the hell assigns homework on the first day of school?

Only fucking math teachers, that's who.

I get done with my homework and I lay back and go on my phone. I scroll through my feed on Facebook.

Drama... Drama... Drama...

That's all that seems to be on Facebook now.

I get a thought in my head...

I type in the words and click search. Ahh, there she is...

Taylor Roper.

Oh she is so pretty. How is it that someone like her could be teaching in such a small town like this?

There's her husband...

God, her smile is intoxicating...

"Lilleth"! My mom calls from downstairs.

I'm pulled out of my daydream.

I click my phone off and head downstairs.

"Yeah"? I ask. I smell the aroma of what she is cooking. My favorite, Spaghetti.

Mmmm..

I smell in the spices that has cooked into it. The citrus of the red warm sauce that I have loved the moment I tasted my mother's spaghetti.

My mom is my best friend. She has been with me through thick and thin. It's always been me and her. I wouldn't trade anything in the world for her. She has blonde hair and she is so beautiful. She is kind, caring, and sweet. She is the type of person who will give the shirt off her back for a stranger. To me she is love, safety, and home. She always will be...

"How was school"? She asks like she does everyday after school.

"It was good. I, for the most part, like all of my classes". I responded.

I don't think I was ready to tell her I was already becoming infatuated  with my English teacher whom I just met today. Not yet anyway.

"Well that's good sweetie". She said in a supportive way.

"Yeah, so is dinner almost done"? I said impatiently.

She chuckles out loud. "Yes baby girl it's almost done".

As I laid my head down on my pillow, I thought

Man it hasn't even been a week since school started and I already don't want to go..

I am not a morning person .

The last words I heard in my head before sleep over took me for the night was

But Mrs. Roper will be there...
