I put my phone back in my pocket and smiled. “Bye mom! I’m going out for the night.” I half yelled so she could hear me from up stairs. “Okay, don’t be out too late.” Was all I could hear from her response and I was out the door.
When I walked in Blare was standing in the middle of the stage learning where to go. She was wearing the dress she had on earlier. I could feel my heart flip in my chest when she smiled at me. She had a beautiful smile, she showed all on her teeth; bottom and top. I smiled back trying my best to look hot. I’m pretty sure it worked because I could see her cheeks heat and blush, which made me blush too.

I made my way over to Jake, who smiled and said, “Hey,” “Hey,” I replied. We walked silently for a minute until we were in the back where the models got changed. Jake looked around for a minute than looked at me and smiled. I smiled back trying to hide the fact that I was totally nervous. Not because I was about to get changed and go on stage and model, but because I was in a room with a totally hot guy and what he made me feel was unbearable.
I was shooed in behind a little screen and clothes were flown over the top at me. I put on a tight dress that stopped just above my knees. It has a diagonal line of gems that ran all the way down into the opposite corner and blew up into a big flower. It looked good on me and since I was aloud to keep one thing I figured I would keep this dress.
I walked out and looked at everyone else and than walked up to Jake. “Wow,” He said with a cocky grin on his face. “Shut up.” I replied trying to be flirty. “No, you look good” He said now with a real smile that made my heart flip. He pulled me into a hug, which caught me by surprise and made my whole body shiver out of delight. I could feel the shock of electricity as soon as his body touched mine. He pulled me out of the hug and smiled at me “You’ll do great!” He said and left to go to his seat. I stood there thinking about it. His hugs weren’t like Alex’s; his were warm and comforting. But Jake’s hug made me feel different. He made me feel loved and that he cared for me.
I walked out onto the stage trying my best to not think about Jake; he was all I could think about. My heart wanted me to let my head think about him, but my brain didn’t want to. I don’t need another boy in my life I have Alex. I thought about Alex for a minute, who, right now was at home by himself. I hated my mom for bringing me here. I couldn’t think about another guy until I was back home with Alex. Then I wouldn’t feel so bad.
“You did great!” Jake said pulling me into another hug. I hugged him back this time and I could feel the shiver run up my spine. Why couldn’t Alex make me feel this way? “Who do you think you are to make me feel this way?” I said furiously. “Excuse me?” He said his face puzzled. “You can’t just going around making girls fall for you with one little hug.” I said even madder than before. “What do you mean?” He said with a cocky smile, knowing what I was talking about. “Shut up. You know what I’m talking about.” I half yelled. He pulled me into another hug. What was with him and hugs? “Sorry.” He whispered into my hair, “But I can’t help liking you, and I can’t help that I make you feel this way.”

I loved hugging her; she was so warm and I could feel her spine shire every time I hugged her, I knew the effect I had on her, “Do you want to go to dinner?” I asked hopefully. She looked up and I looked into her big brown eyes and she said, “Sure. Where are we going?” I thought about it. I should have thought about this before I asked her. “The Eiffel Tower restaurant?” “Okay.” She said with a cute little smile on her face, “I’ve never been,”
*Blare *
He knocked at my door, and I went running. Before I opened the door I stood there and cooled myself down. It would have worked if my door didn’t have a big window in it. I opened the door and Jake was sitting on the floor laughing at me. I had kind of hoped he didn’t see me trying to calm down. This time I pulled him into a hug. If he was going to try to affect me I’m going to affect him.
