my lover - Jude Bellingham

chapter six

I can't remember what the last word was because I just remember how I woke up this morning, in my bed.

When i came downstairs Gio and Jude were sat eating pancakes.

'Morning Ellie, there's some pancakes on the side for you too,' Gio said.

' oh thanks' i smiled.

I grabbed my pancakes and sat down with them.

'Sleep well?' Jude asked me.

'um...yes' i smiled, realising he must've carried me up and put me into bed.

'Well guys my date is scheduled for 3pm, we're watching a movie at the cinema then going out for food,' Gio says.

'Hmmm interesting, what film?' I asked.

'Don't know yet, she chose' he said.

'Ohh I see are you coming back here later on after?' I asked.

'erm no we're staying at a hotel,' he said.

Jude and i sniggered.

'What's funny?' Gio said.

'Enjoy the hotel that's all I'm sayin' Jude said smiling.

'Oh right I get it now,' gio said.

We all laugh.

'I'll be home alone then,' I say.

'Yea you'll be okay,' Gio said.

⏰ - time skip to 2:35pm
Jude has gone home.

I am sat in Gio's room helping him take some pictures for his instagram.

'Do you think i look okay Ellie? Be honest?' He says.

I can tell he's overthinking it.

'Gio you look absolutely fine, don't worry about it.' I say, reassuring him.

'Thanks Ellie. I appreciate it, I just want to look good' he says.

'And you do. You should leave though, don't want to be late for picking her up eh?' I say.

'Yea that's true,' he says.

So he leaves the house and heads to her house.

I'm sat in the lounge watching some Netflix when there's a knock at the door.

I go to answer it.

'Hey,' Jude says, smiling with some flowers in his hands.

'I was expecting you,' I say smiling, i bring him in.

I had secretly invited Jude over, nothing was happening between us, we just enjoyed eachothers company I suppose.

I took the flowers and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

We both sat down and watched a film together, it was not long before we both go hungry and ordered a takeaway to the house.

Later on it got dark, it had been scheduled to snow for ages and tonight it finally did.

'Omg Jude let's go out in the snow!!' I say.

'Your like a little kid excited for Christmas,' he says, laughing.

'stop' I say.

'I'm fooling with you idiot' he says, grabbing my hand and dragging me outside.

The outdoor lights lit everything up, Jude threw a massive ball of snow at me.

'I'll get you for that!!' I shouted.

I picked up a chunk of snow and lobbed it at him, I felt like a kid again.

This was the happiest I had felt in so long, it seems weird to say but Jude made me truly happy.

I stood there shivering after he threw a massive snowball in my face and he was wiping the snow out my hair.

'I'm actually sorry Ellie I didn't mean for that,' he says, giggling.

'You better be, you better makeup for that,' I say, laughing too.

'How about you have my jumper to warm you up? Does that make up for it?' He says laughing.

He passes me his hoodie and I put it on, it smells strongly of his aftershave, it smells amazing.

'Yes it does,' I say, looking up at him. He's so much taller than me.

'Good,' he smiles.

We stay out in the snow for a little bit more and then head in.

'Oh my Jude your freezing, why did you give me your jumper if your cold!!' I say.

'It's better if your warm though,' he says.

'Your freezing don't be silly!' I say, grabbing a towel of the radiator and throwing it him.
He wraps himself up in it and i take off his hoodie and he puts it back on.

'Now your cold idiot!!' He says.

'I'll be fine' i say, laughing.

'Come here,' he says opening his arms.

He puts the warm towel around us both, he held me closely on his body. I'm not complaining though, I'll be honest I enjoyed every moment and had butterflies.

When I pulled away from the hug, I grabbed a jumper of the washing pile and put it on.

We sat down with hot chocolates and watched some more tv.

'Are you gonna stay here tonight?' I asked him.

'I wish i could, my parents are out of town and I don't wanna leave Jobe on his own so I'll be going back, if I could I would.' He said.

'Oh that's okay,' I say.

'You could come back with me if you like?' He suggested.

I didn't know what to say. What did he mean? Was he inviting me to his house? To sleep there?

'To stay the night?' I ask.

'We'll it was only an idea you don't have to,' he says.

'No id love too, I always sit with Jobe at your games so it would be nice to see him.' I said, smiling.

'Okay brilliant.' He smiled.

I don't know what I was doing but I was just glad i wasn't going to be home alone. And even better I was going to be with Jude.

It's hard to say, or even to think but I think my heart is becoming a bit obsessed with him. I think I like Jude Bellingham....
