I'm so exhausted!!!

Elle, Jake and I really had too much fun together, even though I got mad at them for ruining my kitchen. I had to clean all the mess they made, thinking its funny to douse the floor and I in flour and eggs. I got my revenge too.

Now I'm currently sitting on the couch with Jake, both of us watching the movie: The grown ups. Matt had already picked up Elle earlier and now it is just Jake and I.

We continue watching the movie when I suddenly remember the gift I got him earlier today. Wow! Genius! You remembered, finally!!

Ignoring the annoying voice in my head, I tell Jake that I'll be right back and make my way to my room. I grab the bag with his watch inside and go back to the living room. I sit beside him, my legs folded underneath me, as I turn towards him and hand him the package.

"For you. Open it.", my voice coming out excited.

"What's this for?", he asks curious and starts opening the gift.

"Just a teeny tiny gift." I shrug.

"Umm... What's the occasion?", he asks confused.

With a straight face, I reply, "I don't need a special occasion to give gifts. I'm weird like that. Go ahead and open it."

He just chuckles and starts opening it faster. As he opens the box his mouth drops open a little, a look of surprise taking over his face. Then suddenly a frown carves onto his handsome face. He doesn't like it.

My smile drops at that thought.

"You don't like it?", I ask, chewing my bottom lip doubtful of my choice.

"No. No baby, it's absolutely beautiful!!", he exclaims.

"Then why are you frowning? If you don't like it you can tell me."

"I absolutely love it! And I'm not frowning because I don't like it, it's because it must've been expensive." he sighs but a small smile is playing at the corner of his lips.

"So you can buy me tons of things and I can't even get you a watch?", I accuse him but of course playfully.

"Is it some kind of revenge against my paying for your things?", he narrows his eyes at me, not playfully.

"You, Jacob Valtor, think too much. Don't hurt that pretty little head of yours Jakie-boy, it's no revenge, it's a pure loving gesture out of the bottom of my heart!!" I let out a snort at that.

"And you Roxanne Rain, will be the death of me.", he mutters softly under his breath. I heard that!!

I just give him a wide-ass grin and take the watch out if it's container and place it on his wrist. Perfect. Just like him...

"Thank you baby, I really really love it! I'm never taking this off." he pulls me into a hug and gives me a chaste kiss before going back to admiring his watch. I just simply sit there and watch him.
