Unexpected Love (Jo's Story) Read Online Free

table and go to the bathroom and get changed and ready for bed.  I keep telling myself not to think about his note but it keeps creeping back up on me.  Maybe I should just text him and see what he really wants.
     
    If you’re looking for a booty call you are talking to the wrong girl.  ~Jo~
     
    I couldn’t help it.  I am curious to see what he has in mind.  Maybe I am wrong and it isn’t a booty call on his part.  I laugh to myself.  He can’t actually be interested in someone like me.  He probably has more women wanting him than anyone can imagine.
     
    For your information, I don’t do booty calls.  Besides I think you are way too pretty for just a one night stand, or even one date.  I was hoping at least two dinner dates.
     
    My mouth drops open.  Is he being serious or is he being a jerk?
     
    Oh, so you are an ass kisser?  I think that might be worse than a player.
    Player??  Me??  No way.  I am being nice so that you will agree to go out with me.  Oh yeah, and I know you didn’t accidentally run into me tonight.  You know if you wanted to meet me you could have just said hi, you didn’t have to have your friend push you into me.
    That was just as much as a surprise to me as it was to you.  I was just fine watching you from afar like everyone else.
    Are you sure about that??  I think you told her to do it.
    POSITIVE!!
     
    I laugh at the thought of watching him after he got done arm wrestling and admiring those muscles.  The thought makes me blush.
     
    Oh, well ok if you are sure.  So…dinner tomorrow night?
     
    He is relentless.
     
    I don’t know, I am going to be moving all my stuff to my new place tomorrow and will most likely be spending all night unpacking.
    What if I get some pizza and beer and come help?
     
    What is this guy looking for?  And why does he want to come to my house and help?
     
    You don’t even know anything about me.  What if I am some crazy psycho person?
    Are you?
    No!
    See, now I know one more thing about you.  So how about it?
     
    I roll my eyes, I will give it to him he doesn’t give up easy that is for sure.
     
    I don’t know, but I do know that I need to go to sleep.  I have a lot to do tomorrow.  I will think about it and let you know.
     
    OK, I look forward to hearing from yo u 
     
    I put my phone down on the table and lay down in the bed.  Man, what am I thinking?  Am I dreaming?  There is no way that I have this good looking guy wanting to go out on a date with me.  I am day dreaming about our conversation at the bar and doze off.

    “So, let me get this straight, he wants to come over here and help you unpack all your stuff just to be able to have dinner with you?”  Annie’s mouth drops open when I tell her about texting Jake last night.
    “Apparently,” I laugh.
    “What’s stopping you from telling him to come over?”
    “I don’t know anything about him.  And he also doesn’t know anything about me.  Just seems weird is all,” I tell her as I get rid of an empty box and start putting the dishes away out of the next one.
    “Jo that is why people go out on dates.  To get to know each other.  Happens on a daily basis.  What are you afraid of?”
    I look at her.  “I don’t know.  I think I'm just freaked out because of everything happening right now.  I mean yesterday I moved out of my house that I shared with my husband and now today I am moving into a duplex and some guy wants to take me out on a date.  Well no actually he wants to come to my house so that he can say we are on a date while we eat pizza, drink beer, and unpack all my belongings.”
    “I know it is hard for you, but Jo, if you don’t move on with your life then what are you doing?  I mean think about it.  You are just going to be a mom to the girls and work, that’s it?  Don’t you want to possibly have that love in your life again?”
    I laugh, “Yeah, I don’t think he is looking for that!”
    “Oh, come on
