Stay

Chapter 5

We separated from our amazing kiss, leaving us both craving more.A smile crept on his face, revealing his left dimple and causing me to smile as well. I observed his face; his perfect jaw structure, his curved eyebrows, his cute, little nose, his full lips. But my favorite part of his face were his big, honey colored eyes, followed by his long, curling eyelashes. He softly placed his hand on my cheek, pulling me in for another sweet kiss, before sadly separating again. "Well, we got the kissing part done.." He said, smirking at me, reminding me of our play and causing us both to laugh. "Do you want food? I'm starving!" I said, changing the subject as I heard my stomach growl. He simply nodded and gave me a sweet smile. I stood up and reached my arm out to help him off my bed. He grabbed it, intertwining our fingers. I felt myself blush and walked him downstairs. We decided to make some pasta, knowing it was simple and it wouldn't take too long. I took out the pasta and put it on the stove to boil, while Jake searched the cabinet for tomato sauce. I was stirring the boiling pasta, when I felt a pair of hands wrap around my stomach from behind me and I couldn't help but smile. I turned off the fire for the pasta and turned around to face Jake, locking our eyes. He smiled at me, pulling me really close, making me believe he would end my craving by attaching our lips again. We were inches away, when suddenly he wiped his finger on my face, spreading tomato sauce all over it. I stood there in shock as he was practically crying of laughter. I let out a chuckle and dipped my fingers in the tomato sauce, making my way toward Jake. Two can play at that game. He looked up to find me inches away and tried to stop me, but it was too late. His face was covered in tomato sauce. His smile instantly faded as he looked at me. "What did you just do to me?" He asked me, trying to hide his smile. He ran towards me, lifting me up and throwing me over his shoulders. We both laughed uncontrollably as he spun me around,then plopped me down on the couch. Out of breath, we decided to get up and continue making our dinner. "I'll be right back, I'm gonna, uhm, go to the bathroom" Jake said, making his way out of the kitchen. Ten minutes passed and Jake still wasn't back. "The foods ready!" I yelled to him. No response. I made my way out of the kitchen and to the dining room to set the pasta on the table, to be surprised. Jake was standing next to the table, setting it up for us. I couldn't help but smile at how cute he looked trying to figure out which forks to set. "The big forks will be just fine" I said, startling him. I set the pasta at the center of the table and realized what else he had set up. He set up two plates for us, as well as napkins and forks, and a few candles were set in the middle with the lights dimmed. "Aw, all this for me?" I asked, blushing again. "No, for us" he said as he gently grabbed my chin, pulling me in for a peck on my lips. I sat down next to him and we began eating. He tried to be romantic as he grabbed a forkful and tried to feed it to me, only to completely miss my mouth and get sauce all over my lips and chin. I playfully pouted as he laughed at me. "Aw sorry, let me get that off for you cutie" he said playfully as he kissed the sauce off my lips and chin, causing me to start cracking up. We quickly finished our meal, deciding we'd feed ourselves, before we heard my front door shut close. "Mom?" I said, standing up and rushing to her. She reeked of alcohol and she could barely stand up. Surprise, surprise. "Lets get you upstairs" I heard Jake say, before he carried my mom,bridal style, to her room upstairs and shut the door. I sat on the bottom step of the stairs and a billion thoughts rushed through my mind. What if he stopped liking me because of my family? What if he didn't like my mom? My thought were interrupted by his sweet voice. "I should get going. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning?" He said, giving me his amazing smile. "Alright, I'll see you tomorrow!" I said as I led him to the door, sealing our 'goodbye' with a quick kiss.

I heard a honk outside and looked out my window to see Jake waiting for me. I waved at him, letting him know I'd be down soon. I quickly took another look in the mirror and made my way downstairs. I was wearing a simple black, long sleeve with gray jeans that fit perfectly around my curves, along with my black high tops. I never put time into getting dressed for school;I wanted to be comfortable.  

I climbed into the car and gave Jake a peck on his cheek. He smiled and drove off. He kept his eyes on the road, searching for my left hand with his right. When he finally found it, he held my hand, intertwining our fingers. We finally got to school and he pulled into my old parking spot. "Oh yeah, sorry for stealing your spot." He said, smirking at me. "Well, it's our spot now" I said, smiling at him. He lifted my hand up and kissed it, before getting out of his car and coming to the other side to open my door for me. I blushed at his chivalrous actions as we walked into school together, fingers still intertwined with one another. Jazzy walked up to me, giving me a confused look as she saw our hands together. "I'll explain later" I said to her, turning her confused face to an excited one. As we walked into the school, I felt all eyes on us. All the girls envied me for being with Jake right now. I had gotten with the two hottest guys in our grade; Adam, and now Jake. All my insecurities rushed through my head, causing me to walk behind Jake. He stopped and pulled me forward, reassuring me and showing me that everything is okay. "Sammy, don't worry about what those girls think. You're perfect" he said as we reached my locker. I gave him a kiss before he was roughly pulled away from me. I opened my eyes to see Jake on the floor with somebody on top of him.  

"Adam stop!" I yelled before everything went black.
