Maybrook Prep

Jace: I open the door for her, finding the manager.

You play the tourguide

Tara: I followed...

He'll be hyper, cause I'm hyper. Overly excited.

TG: "Oh! You're here!" I check my watch. "Perfect timing , by the way. If you'll just follow me, I'll show you the swimming pool and the garden."

okay xD
why are you so excited?

Tara: I arched an eyebrow at Jace as we were shown each area. This looked a lot nicer than $500. What was he keeping from me?

Eh. No reason. I probably just ate too much chocolate. XD

TG: "And here we are. Now, the 6 am through 8 am timeblocks are off limits for the elderly, but any other time, you can swim. Over here is the garden...we advise that you do not step on anything."

Haha.

Tara: It sounded so...uptight. Crappy apartments didn't have rules like this. I crossed my arms and pressed my lips into a line for the rest of the tour. Jace was lying to me.

TG: "So we have three stories, each suite equipped with a fridge, two bedrooms, and the best we can offer. Would you like to check it out now?"
"Yeah," Jace says, smiling.

Tara: I stomped "accidentally" on Jace's foot as we walked to go see one of the suites. I could NOT afford something like this.

Jace: I look at her, raising an eyebrow. "I promise you can afford it," I tell her.

Tara: "Liar," I replied as we came to the suite. It was really nice. I glared at Jace.

Jace: I shrug as the tourguide turned around to us. "Now, we have rules. If you play music and someone complains, you have thirty minutes to turn it down or we confiscate it. Pets must be kept on a leash and if you move out, anything done to the room, such as paint or remodeling must be removed. Understood?"

Tara: I nodded. I wouldn't be living here, anyway, since it was obviously out of my price range.

Jace: I smile and wrap an arm around her waist.

Tara: The lady left us to look around, and I slapped his arm away. "You're such a liar!"

Jace: I wince. "I've already bought it."

Tara: I groaned. "Jace! Why?!"

Jace: "Cause I'd rather you live here than there."

Tara: "So basically, you want me to be in debt for the rest of my life?" I couldn't pay this off. Not if I were staying here for at least a year, through graduation.

Jace: I walk over to the window. "It was only 500," I say, sticking to my lie.

Tara: "No. It wasn't." I picked up a brochure, seeing the real price and wanting to faint. "Oh. God..."

Jace: I roll my eyes. "You're only paying 500, darling. Don't worry."

Tara: I shook my head. "I can't just let you pay. What if we break up? Then you'll have wasted all that money on me!"

Jace: I wrap my arms around her waist. "Then don't break up with me. You're the only one who will feel like I've wasted something."

Tara: I sighed looking up into his eyes. "Fine, if you're going to be so stubborn...thank you for paying for most of it. Happy?"

Jace: "I didn't need a thank you, but that's fine," I say, smiling wider.
