Eyes Don't Lie ✩ Jenna Ortega (G!P)

XVIII

| Y/N's POV |

"Shh, we gotta be quiet." Jenna quietly placed a hand over my mouth as we carefully snuck out of our trailer, making our way down the street with skateboards in our hands.

"Feels like high school all over again." I joked lightly and earned myself a chuckle from Jenna, who's arm wrapped around my waist, keeping me close to her side. It was dark outside - around 11 pm at night. We got drunk off our asses a couple hours ago and decided to go skating at midnight and now here we are. Only sober.

"Just don't leave my side." Jenna mumbled as her grip tightened around me, her eyes on high alert as we walked past dark alleys and sketchy streets. "Crazy people usually come out at this time."

"Hm, it reminds me of the time Olivia and I were almost kidnapped." I whispered casually. I smiled slightly when Jenna had to stop in her tracks to look at me as if I grew two heads.

"You what?"

I giggled and rested my hands on her shoulders to relax her. "Yeah, we were stupid kids sneaking out at 1 in the morning to get snacks and some guy drove by, his arm out the car trying to grab us but he couldn't."

"What happened?" Jenna asked with concern even if it happened years ago.

"We ran the opposite direction all the way back home. We weren't hungry anymore." I smiled at the memory of Liv screaming her head off when we began to run back home. She wasn't very calm in those types of situations.

"Okay, that only worried me more." Jenna took my board out my hand, holding hers and mine in one hand while her free arm swooped me off my feet, throwing me over her shoulder to keep me with her at all times.

"Jenna!" I gasped as my hair fell over my head, dangling. "Put me down."

"Nah, I like this view." Jenna playfully smacked my ass. I returned it and she jumped slightly. "Watch it, tiger." She joked while putting me down, her soft,  veiny hands brushing my hair back so it wasn't so messy.

"That scared me." I shoved her shoulder but all we did was laugh it off and went right back to her arm protectively wrapping around my waist. "You do realize that we have to start filming at 6 am, right?"

"I can't sleep anyway." She hands my board back to me. "You're constantly on my mind, how could I?"

"Smooth, Ortega." I chuckled and jumped on her back, causing her to grunt as she stopped to properly hold me up by my thighs, I was now holding both boards so Jenna could steadily hold me up.

We passed by many dark buildings and streets. The Seven-Eleven gas station sign was so bright, it lit up every dark corner within a 5 mile radius. "Snacks?" Jenna glanced up at me, exhaling slowly as she slowly put me back down.

"Why the hell not?" Her board was back in her hand while our free arms looped together. We walked inside and the only girl working there waved at us. Jenna waited by the register, talking to the girl and asking her questions about if it was scary for her to work this late at night by herself. All I heard clearly was that the girl usually has her boyfriend come over for 3 hours of her shift to protect her.

Smart thinking.

I grab two Redbulls and a bag of Hot Cheetos to share. Jenna snatched a pack of gum and some M&M's from behind her and once it came down to paying, Jenna didn't let me pay a single dime.

"Have a safe night." The girl waved to us, handing back our receipt as we flashed her a smile.

—————

"Redbull? Okay, it's like you want us to stay up all night long." Jenna scoffed playfully as we took a seat on the swings at the empty park we were sitting at. It was around a 10-13 minute walk from set.

I had finished my last bite of the handful of chips I had. "It's not too effective on me, but I will have a sugar crash in an hour from now." I giggled as I sipped my energy drink.

"Hm, not for me." Jenna shuffled slightly so she was facing me, setting her can down and resting her hands on the chains. "If I drink coffee or an energy drink late at night, I'm up till dawn. It's a bad habit of mine." She sighed and looked up at glowing full moon. "I work myself tirelessly so sleep just doesn't seem as important anymore."

"I think I can understand that." I smiled and took her hand in mine, using it to pull my swing closer so our foreheads were touching. "I used to do that until I met Dove. She's older and knows more about this kinda stuff. She helped me get myself in order so I got my much deserved rest."

Jenna sighed against my touch, my hands cupping her cheeks to pull her head down in my chest. "How do you do it?"

"You just gotta let go of whatever's stressing you out. You're not perfect and you never will be, but you're enough." I lifted her face again, kissing along her face. Starting at her cheek, to her nose, forehead, temple, jaw, and finally lips. It wasn't a lustful kiss, it was a loving one filled with warmth. "And that's all you need to be."

Jenna's eyes fluttered open and I just about fainted at our dilated her beautiful, brown eyes were. "Thanks, Y/N/N." She muttered gently, her eyelids drooping slightly.

"Come on." I stand up and pull her to her feet, looping my arm around her waist to keep her up due to how sleepy she was. "Let's get you home, my sleepy baby."

"Okay." Jenna grumbled cutely as she fiddled to grab the bag of snacks. She lazily flung our trash away, I took the bag in my hands to carry instead while holding Jenna up. "You smell so nice."

Jenna's nose was stuffed in the crook of my neck, smelling my perfume like it was an addicting drug. "Why thank you, honey." I whispered sweetly in her ear before kissing her cheek again, my arm tightening around her waist. "Now, let's get you home."

"Yes, ma'am." The girl did an adorable salute with a toothless grin being flashed at me. I couldn't help but smile uncontrollably at how naturally adorable she is.
