Rich Boy

Chapter 12

Hey You guys! Sorry for not uploading recently :(  I'm back now and I'm working on uploading a lot more. I hope you enjoy this chapter :)) I need some advice also! I kinda like this guy in my 7th hour, like he's very attractive but I don't really know him and he doesn't have any friends in the class and I really wanna talk to him but I don't know how to start or what to say. Can someone please help? And I'm texting this other guy, idk if I like him yet but at school he always acts all flirty and stuff but when we text he takes a lifetime to respond. What should I do about that??

Chapter 12: Jake

I got home feeling confused and flustered, I unbuttoned my blue dress shirt and I ruffled my hair stressfully. I placed my hand over where my heart was and the beat was normal. I closed my eyes and thought about Celeste, when I thought about her my heart thumped wildly and it felt like tingles going through my body. I knew what this feeling was...I had the same feeling when I dated Erin. But this feeling was stronger, When I was holding Celeste in my arms after dinner I felt a strong wave of emotion come over me. It made me uneasy as to how strong this emotion was. I probably looked really awkward when I pulled away from her and went away.

"Celeste, I l-l-love y-y-you." I stuttered into the mirror, I tugged on my hair and groaned before falling back onto my bed. "Fuck..." I sighed and ran my hands over my face. I can't tell her if I don't know that it's mutual, maybe it's too early to tell her. But I want to tell her so badly, I love her. I've never fallen for a girl so fast before. 

I got up and went into my bathroom where I stripped and hopped in the shower. I hated going to bed with gel in my hair, I washed my hair and when I finished I just lay in my bed staring at the ceiling and just thinking of Celeste. How did I end up with a beautiful girl like her? As I was thinking about her I felt extreme guilt, She didn't know my real name or my real lifestyle, I tried to make it seem like I was in the middle class like she was and I hoped it would work because I don't know how'd she react to find out the truth about me. 

I don't want to lose her, I shouldn't have lied in the first place. I groaned in frustration and ran my fingers through my hair roughly and rolled over on my bed, not realizing how close I was to the edge. I groaned after falling onto the hard wood floor. 

"Ow..." I rubbed the side of my head and got up. I walked out of my room and went to talk to my dad who was sitting in front of the television, watching some show he had been obsessed with. 

"Hey son." He said looking at me and offering a small smile, "Hey pops." I said sitting next to him on the black leather couch. 

"I really like your girlfriend this time. She seems genuinely nice." My dad said causing me to involuntarily smile. "She's pretty great...but dad can I ask you something?" I said nervously and he nodded,

"Like you already know, I've lied to her since we met, she doesn't know that I'm a Charson, like rich and somewhat famous. I really care about her but what if she finds out the truth?" I said quickly, he looked at me with a serious expression. 

"From my experience with women, son, you need to tell her the truth before she finds out from someone else or on her own. She'll have a better reaction if you tell her the truth." I ran my fingers through my hair, 

"I'm a coward...I wouldn't be able to get it out. I just have to make sure she doesn't find out." I said leaning back into the couch. 

"You should listen to me." My dad warned before paying attention back to the TV. I ran my fingers through my hair annoyed at myself. My dad fell asleep while watching the TV and I chuckled to myself as I looked at him. He worked hard and was always tired but he always tried to seem energetic even though he wasn't. I tapped him slightly and urged him to go to bed which he did, 

"Goodnight son." He murmured as he trailed to his bedroom. I went up to my room after locking everything up and I checked my phone and saw a goodnight text from Celeste with a bunch of hearts on it which made me smile. I bit my bottom lip as I texted her back a Goodnight Sweetheart <3. 

I lay in bed thinking of a perfect way to spend the day with Celeste tomorrow, I needed to make myself busy to avoid thinking of Blake too much or I would get depressed. 

********

I woke up to the sun shining in my face, I didn't even remember falling asleep last night. I rolled out of bed yawning and stretching at the same time. I knew exactly what I was going to do with Celeste today, I wanted to take her to the local water park and spend the whole day there, eating snacks and riding all the different rides. There are so many rides, I don't even know if we'll go through them all. 

I picked up my phone before heading into the bathroom and texted Celeste, Be ready in thirty minutes. Wear a bathing suit ;). She responded a moment later with an ok :). I smiled and put my phone down so I could get ready to go see her. I washed my face, brushed my teeth, and combed my unruly bed head before I changed into a pair of dark blue swim trunks with white anchors on them and I pulled on a black t-shirt over it and I slid on some flip flops. I grabbed my phone, a towel, my wallet, and my keys before heading downstairs. 

"Good morning." I said with a smile on my face and Kate looked at me with a weird look. She was sitting at the kitchen table and was wearing a plain white t-shirt and black leggings with sperry's.

"What's up with you? Why're you so giddy?" She asked flipping her brown hair over her shoulder. I blushed as I thought of kissing Celeste,

 "No reason." I practically sang as I grabbed a bowl and the cereal box, she looked at me with a knowing look.

 "It's Celeste isn't it?" She asked with a smirk on her face, I glanced at her quickly and nodded, I poured cereal into the bowl and quietly murmured the song Lost in you by westlife.  

"What is this feeling I've never known before?" I sang loudly making Kate choke on her coffee for a moment. 

"You love her don't you?" She asked and it was my turn to choke, I coughed loudly and ate my cereal in silence. Kate giggled and I glanced at her, "What?" I asked and she shrugged, "I'm your sister, you don't have to say anything for me to know what's going on with you." I pressed my lips together and sighed, "Fine I love her. I've never felt this way or fallen this fast before. This is real love. But I'm too scared to tell her cause it seems like i've fallen for her a lot faster than she's falling for me." Kate groaned. 

"That's true, you wouldn't wanna push her away by telling her things like that too early. Anyways, I have a shoot to go to. Have fun on your little date." She said finishing her coffee and heading out. I said goodbye to my parents before heading out to the car and heading to Celeste's house. I pulled up to her house where she was sitting on the porch and she was wearing a see through white cover up and a black bikini under it. Her hair was hanging loosely over her shoulders and she waved a smiled widely at me before heading over to the car and hopping in. 

"Hey." She said leaning over and placed her hand on the back of my neck and touched her lips to mine, giving me a gentle, sweet kiss. I kissed her back, not wanting it to end and she smiled mid-way through the kiss, making me smile also. 

"Let's go." She said sitting back into her seat and putting on her seatbelt as I pulled out and headed to the water park.
