The New Boy

day off

"so, what do you want to do?" I ask unlocking my front door.

"honestly. the first thing that I want to do is call Desi." he says and I look at him confused. "the girl that I could have-"

"oh.. we can do that. would she be in school?" I ask opening my door.

"no. different time zones." he tells me.

"oh. that makes sense actually. do you want to now?" I ask him.

"yeah. before school starts." he tells me.

"okay. any place in particular?" I ask gesturing to my whole house.

"what's a good place?" Jack asks me.

"follow me." I say grabbing his hand and leading him upstairs.

"where are we going?" he asks me.

"you'll see." I say opening my door.

"your room?" he asks me.

"sort of." I say laughing.

"that makes no sense." he laughs.

"just wait. be quiet for now." I say stopping and shushing him.

"why?" he asks me.

"because I said so." I laugh. "and because of this." I kiss him shutting him up.

"okay. I'll be quiet now." he says laughing.

"good." I say continuing into my room. I open my closet.

"your closet?" he asks confused.

"just wait." I say, moving my clothes to the side, revealing a small door.

"what the hell?" Jack asks, both creeped out and confused.

"it's just an extension of my room. I spend most of my time in here. it makes me forget that I'm home alone pretty much 24/7." I say stepping through the little door. Jack just stands there. "are you coming?"

"uhh..." he hesitates.

"I promise that it's okay. would I ever do anything that would hurt you?" I ask.

"no." he says.

"come on." I say putting my hand out. he grabs it and walks through the door.

"whoa." he says taking it in. there's a tv, a few gaming systems, a pool table, a wraparound couch, a fridge, and a fireplace.

"what?" I ask laughing.

"you are perfect." Jack says.

"don't tell anyone about this room. Anna is the only other person besides my family that knows." I tell him.

"I won't. and you can't tell anyone about Desi." Jack promises me.

"I promise." I say smiling at him. "seal it with a kiss?"

"you just want an excuse to kiss me." he says laughing a little.

"I think everyone does." I smile and he leans in and his lips connect with mine. our lips move in synchronization. I don't want to stop kissing him, but Luna comes in, interrupting us for the second time.

"cock-blocker." Jack says under his breath as I pull away laughing.

"what?" I laugh even harder, and I lay my palms on his chest.

"nothing." he smiles at me.

"tell me." I whine.

"I said that she's a cock-blocker." he says loudly.
