(n) a foolish act or idea

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

                    "Had a nice breakfast?" Mr. J asked once I plopped down on my seat and as usual, he was already seated down, waiting for me, eventhough its just a small little thing, my heart swelled at that.

"I had only starbucks coffee and pudding for breakfast." I said, gave him a smile. A huge goofy grin that I tried to suppress, I didn't want to look too creepy.

"Do you like pudding?" He asked and I nodded.

Who doesn't?

"Mm." He closed his eyes and groaned, tilting his neck backwards.

"Has been a long time since I have had a nice breakfast." He said and grinned widely.

I grinned back.

"What did you eat for breakfast?" I asked, placing my file infront of me and played with the tip of the file.

"Bread." He said, blantly and I immediately felt pity for him.

It has been two months and he is still not out of here.

Mr. Fox's voice echoed through my head and I stiffened.

"Why aren't you out of here yet?" I blurted out before I could stop myself and my eyes widened.

He leaned forward, his head tilting, his eyes narrowing as he studied me and gave me a toothy grin.

"Oh." He said. "So that I could have good food?"

"Yeah."

He laughed, his laughter bouncing off the walls of his confined room.

"Gosh, you are so funny." He said, and continued laughing.

Is that a compliment?

"I love that." He said as soon as his laughter stopped and I smiled at what he said.

"Do you have pets?" He asked, all out of a sudden.

I shook my head and he gave me a wide grin. "You should get one." He said.

"What about you?" I asked.

"Me?" He asked, his tone low and breathy from all the laughing. "If I want, I would have a kitten." He said and I smiled.

"A kitten? Why?" I asked, smiling as I did not expect him to say a kitten and he gave me a toothy grin, once again.

"It reminds me of you." He said, in such a erotic voice that it made me purse my lips and I looked down, blushing furiously, his icy blue eyes were burning my skin and I gulped.

"Oh." I meekly responded. "Why?"

"I will tell you the reason for that soon enough." He said and gave me a wink that made my heart stop.

Before I could ask what he meant by that, he changed the topic and once again we talked about everything, about the most random of things, my file, pen and clipboard was forgotten and I never felt bored during our conversation, not even a single ounce.

I was laughing and enjoying myself the whole time, he made me laugh and blush. He made me glow inside and I tried to cover it up.

Time flew past and soon, two hours were over and it only felt like a minute.

You know what they say, time flies when you are having fun.

"Yeah. That is cool." He said and I smiled back, giving a slight chuckle.

"Really? I thought it was pretty lame." I said, moving my hair out of my face and drank the last bit from my cup of coffee and I was done.

"No." He said, shaking his head vigorously. "Do you want to walk?" He asked.

"Sure." I said, getting up from my seat and waited for him to catch up with me.

It was a chilly night and the cold air hit my face, I could feel my cheeks flushing already as I stepped out of the small cafè. I was having a coffee with Tom Yankins, just as promised.

"Here." Tom said, putting his coat over me and I thanked him for that. I felt warmth immediately and I bathed myself in it.

We walked along the path in silence, enjoying the night. After a few turns and twists, he said, "Looks like its going to rain tonight."

Just when he said that, a bolt of thunder flashed across sky and rain started pouring down all of a sudden and I grinned, to look at Tom giving me a smile too.

"Come on!" He shouted over the sound of the rain. "Lets go there!" He said, ponting towards a small gift shop and we ran across the wet road, reaching the shop, Tom opened the door to let me in and came in after I did.

I shivered, taking off the dripping wet coat and hanged it on the coat hanger. Tom was beside me, shaking his head to get rid of the wetness and I smiled because he reminded of a dog.

I turned around and took a look at the small gift shop. I walked in, looking at the things inside and admired each gift.

Something caught my eye and I turned around again to see what it was, it was a doll.

A kitten doll.

It was so cute.

I took it and smiled.

Maybe I should buy this?

Why?

Maybe I can give Mr. J this as a gift, so that whenever he sees this, he would get reminded of me. I smiled goofily at that thought.

"You want that?" Tom asked and I looked up to see him beside me.

"Yup." I said, popping the 'p'.

"Come on." He brought me to the cashier and he bought that for me eventhough I told him I could pay,  he didn't listen.

The rain had slowed down a bit and after waiting and wondering around the gift shop for a few more minutes, we were out of there and in a taxi, he dropped me at my apartment and watched me till I went in safely.

What a gentleman.

I walked in, placing the kitten beside my office bag so that I wouldn't forget to bring it tomorrow.

I read his letter for the day, as sweet as always, and admired the baseball jacket he had gotten for me. It was blue and red.

It was perfect and I loved it.

With a smile on my face, I layed down on my bed, waiting for the arrival of next day.

Hey everyone!

Why am I attracted to a psychopath? I have no idea.

Oh well.
