Boys will be Boys

Date

I woke up the next day and Jake was waking up on my lap. He got up and rubbed his eyes. Dam he hot. I got up and went to go get changed. I went back into the kitchen, and I grabbed some cereal. Jake was still on the couch. I couldn't tell what he was doing. He suddenly got up and went into his room. He left his phone on the couch, unlocked. He was using it before he ran into his room. I don't know what acme over me, but I wanted to see what he was doing. I picked it up, there were dozens of messages from his friends asking where he was. Saying he was supposed to meet him at David's house. Saying they were pissed at him. Saying he was a horrible friend. I was shocked. I picked someone else he was texting. It was his brother. They were messages about me. about how Jake thought I was cute. About how he knew his life would be ruined if he asked me out. Holy shit. Jake took forever to leave his room. I finished my cereal when he came out.
"hey Harry can I ask you something?" he said sitting down
"alright" I say grabbing out Jakes cereal and putting my bowl in the sink
"uh do you wanna go out?"
"wha"
"like on a date"
"whaAa"
"you going to continue doing that"
"no um really?"
"yes"
"well I would love to" Jake smiled and we had breakfast later that day Jake took me to get ice cream. He got mint choc chip and vanilla, and I got Neapolitan. We then walked to a small park with no one in it. We talked for hours. We were sitting on a park bench. I looked at Jake, he was laughing, his hair was all messy. He looked at me. he leaned in closer, and we kissed, it was soft, it was calm. It was nice. We were there for a few minutes when we heard people talking, there were clearly coming to the park. Jake backed away.
"sorry" he said
"that's fine, I" I got cut off by someone yelling
"JAKE HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE" a friend of his yelled. Jake stood up and walked over to him
"hey" Jake said, he sounded uncomfortable
"you didn't make it to David's last night, what happened"
"I uh got busy"
"what are you doing hanging out with the nerd"
"were friends"
"since when would you be friends with a nerd like him"
"since I can be do you have a problem with it"
"yeah cause since your friends with one you can't be friends with us" his friends walked away. Jake was shocked. We walked home and tried to tell him how his friend are terrible people, but it was almost as if he lost a huge part of him. He didn't talk much for the rest of the day. A perfect day was ruined. Later that night Jake sat on the couch with me. he put his head on my shoulder and his arm around me
"I'm sorry about today, I ruined it" he said
"you didn't ruin anything" I say hugging him
"can you not tell anyone about us"
"I won't tell anyone, I promise" we stayed there for a bit until Jake went to bed. I went to my room, and I stayed up all night thinking about everything that happened today. I felt like the happiest person alive.
