My alarm rang, and I thought, "Stupid school. Why can't it be online? It's so much better than having to wake up earlier." I reached over to turn off the alarm, but suddenly my phone started ringing. I picked it up from the nightstand, answering the incoming call. "Hello?" I said, my voice high-pitched.

"Hello, princess," Jake's voice came through.

I gasped. "How did you get my number?" I questioned, confused.

"From my mom," he stated the obvious. "Get ready. I'm picking you up."

Before I could reply, he hung up, leaving me with my mouth open. Did Jake just ask me out? I snorted. That must be a dream. I walked to the bathroom and went through my usual routine. I kind of miss my friends back home. My ex-boyfriend keeps calling; why can't he leave me alone? I blocked him. I want nothing to do with him. I walked to my walk-in closet and picked out an outfit - nothing fancy, just a red dress with some boots. I put my hair in a bun. Outside looked like it was going to rain. It had been raining all week. Later, I met Chole and walked downstairs to grab an apple. As I opened the door, Jake stood there on his motorcycle. It wasn't a dream, I muttered, jumping in.

"Princess," he smirked.

"Ugh, never," I yelled, right when I pulled out my phone. Jake snatched my phone. "Give me back my phone!" I demanded, reaching for it. He's 6'1, and I'm 5'2, but I managed to retrieve it. "Not until you agree to go out with me," he smiled with the window open, showing all his perfect teeth. There's no way I'm skipping school and lying to mom just so I can finish watching "Teen Spy." Either that, or no phone.

"Fine," I said, not giving it up until he agreed.

Ugh, Jake will never leave me alone, especially not after what I did to him the other day. I rolled my eyes. I got in and held on tight. This better be worth it.

"We're at the restaurant already. Can you make up your mind?" Jake said for the umpteenth time as we arrived. The waitress, Mira, came over. I read her name tag.

"Mira, smile," I thought.

I heard some giggles and turned around to see my ex-boyfriend Josh standing just two inches away. "Short," I muttered thankfully under my breath. I brought my nerdy glasses with me, hoping he wouldn't recognize me.

I put on my nerdy glasses, hoping he doesn't recognize me. "What are you doing here anyway?" I wondered. Josh was really rich, always on some business trip, and his father was never home.

"Faith," Jake's voice snapped me out of my thoughts. "What?" I hissed.

"Someone has a bad attitude," he said.

I rolled my eyes. "After this date, you better leave me alone."

"I'll leave you alone until you admit I'm hot, sexy, and attractive," he grinned.

I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts. Josh was having a conversation with some important men. "Here you go," Mira said, bringing our plates. "Thanks," I smiled and started eating.

"So, what brought you here?" Jake asked, taking a sip of his drink.

"Job," I mumbled. I didn't really want him to know the whole story.

"Anyway, what's up with you making my life hell?" I wiped my mouth.

He laughed. Even his laughter sounded sexy. Every time a new student steps into West High, my job is to make sure—

"He can't be serious," I thought.

"Anyway," he continued.

Jake paid for the dinner, and we exited the building. Mom is going to be so mad for skipping school. I kind of liked this Jake.

Guys, I almost have writer's block. Comment if you're a Jake fan I'll update next week, I promise. Next chapter, I'll make it longer. 😊
