Blank Page (Abandoned)

11. Boyfriend?

It's been a week since Jake and I confessed our feelings. It wasn't a surprise but it needed to be said. He is planning a date of some sort and it's supposed to be a complete secret but he sucks at hiding things other than his family. The only thing I know about it is that he is using Becky to help him pick out a dress for me, and is hoping to take me to his apartment.

Trevor and his friends haven't spoken to me since our talk. I don't trust him. I mean yes I know, pretty obvious, but I think he's planning something.

Jake knocked on my door frame and leaned against it.

"Hey pumpkin!" He's been trying out different pet names.

"I'm not too opposed to that one." He grinned.

"Yes!" He ran and picked me up. I laughed and ruffled his hair. He set me down and pecked my lips. "So! What do you have planned for today?"

I rolled my eyes. "You already have my schedule memorized."

"I know but I want to hear it from you."

"I have Den Chiefing for the pack at 6:30, and then dinner here." He pouted at the second part.

"No, I'm stealing you for dinner."

I feigned surprise. "Oh?"

"Yup and I bought you a dress too!"

"I can't wait!" I kissed him and threw my arms around his neck.

"Now, I'm going to ruin the good mood. Where does your mom buy the Snapple from?"

I frowned. Why would he care? I know he's been concerned about the blood, but I didn't think it would be related. "The store. I don't think I'm allergic because I normally don't have this issue."

"Normally you don't drink the ones at home."

"You don't think my mom added something, do you?"

"I don't know. It could just be a bad batch." I nodded. "Hey, don't worry about it. Let me handle it, ok?"

"Yeah." He kissed my forehead, and wrapped his arms around me. I snuggled my head into his chest. His hugs were starting to be my favorite part of my day.

Jacob took me to a Mexican restaurant and we had a great time talking about everything under the sky. We shared ice cream, it was like a fairy tale. When we got to his apartment, he carried me, bridal style, to his door. He set me down and pushed me against the door. He kissed me soft at first, but it quickly turned hungry. He ran his tongue along my bottom lip trying to get access. I refused to tease him, but he bit my lip, making me gasp. His tongue invaded my mouth. The butterflies were going so crazy I thought they would escape.

He pulled away to get some air. His lips were swollen and it took me a minute to realize I did that! And another to realize I probably looked like that too. He leaned in and I thought he would kiss me again but instead he opened the door. He laughed at my disappointment.

"Don't worry princess you will get more of that later."

"Shut up! What if the neighbors hear you!" He laughed.

"Let's go princess." When I entered his apartment my jaw dropped. There were rose, gold, and white balloons everywhere, a cake in a case, presents on the table and ghostbusters cued up on the TV with a bowl of popcorn on the table and pink blankets and pillows waiting on the couch. Lastly there was a banner. It had my name on it and photos of all my happiest moments. It read, "Happy Birthday Hannah!" I felt happy tears roll down my cheeks. I didn't even notice it was my birthday. No one wished me one. I stepped in to get a better look at the cake.

All of a sudden my Mom, Dad, Alex, Becky, and Patrick hopped out from behind the wall and screamed, "Happy Birthday!"

It was all too much. I turned to Jake. "You planned this?" He nodded his head. I tackled him in a hug. He laughed and squeezed me with the same amount of energy. "OMG! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

I turned to our visitors and gave them hugs as well. Becky wiped my tears and screamed, "I love you bestie!!"

We ate cake and opened presents. Jake got me more jewelry, Becky got me a sketchbook, Patrick got matching t-shirts for me and him that say "Hey! We agreed on shared custody!" With a picture of me and him holding one of Becky's arms, Mom got me wireless headphones, Dad got me a hat, and Alex got me a video game that was clearly for him.

The rest of them left after we finished eating cake, leaving me and Jake alone again. I turned to him and gave him another hug. "Thank you so much!"

"Anything for you princess!" He kissed me and pulled me towards the couch. He pulled the blanket back to reveal matching pajamas. I gasped.

"You didn't!"

He smiled, "Yes I did!"

He tossed me mine and directed me to the bathroom to get changed.

He was in his pj's when I got out, except he wasn't wearing a shirt. Omg! His abs! I can't today. He wrapped his arms around me and threw me on the couch. He sat on my legs and started tickling me. I squirmed and kicked but he was too strong. "Jake, stop! Jacob please!" I wheezed.

He laughed but continued his torture. "Dia why are you so ticklish?"

"I don't know- Jake please!"

"When's my birthday?"

"You never told me!" He frowned.

"Then I guess this isn't fair." He stopped momentarily. "What's my middle name?" He resumed his attack on my stomach.

"I-" I can't remember! "Uh!"

He gasped. "You forgot!"

"No it's... oh! It's Sam!"

He pouted. "Try again."

"So sorry- Samuel!" I said in between laughs.

He stopped and kissed me. I smiled against his lips, but turned my head so I could get some air in my lungs. He laughed and stood up. He sat behind me and pulled me to his chest. The movie started and I found myself snuggling into him.

I fell asleep but I woke up when Zuul and Vinz open the gate. I looked up to see Jacob's gaze locked on me.

"You're so cute when you sleep." I blushed.

"So are you."

He smiled and held me closer. He glanced at the TV and paused the movie. He paused it when the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man rose.

"What's-"

He cut me off with another breathtaking kiss. He switched our positions so that I was lying on my back with him on top. "Dia, you are the light in my world. You bring out the best version of me, and I want to be able to be there for all of your ups and downs. Hannah Lydia Terolb, will you be my girlfriend?"

His question caught me so off guard I giggled. "Yeah..." Real smooth. "Yes! Absolutely!"

Jacob relaxed at my confirmations. He planted a kiss on my nose. "Thank god!"

I smiled up at him. He returned a grin and snuggled into my chest. "You're such a child!"

He chuckled and looked up, resting his chin on my upper sternum. I reached up and started running my fingers through his hair. He hummed in pleasure and closed his eyes. We held each other for what seemed like forever. I fell asleep and woke up to find us in the same position, except for Jake's face. He was now pressing a cheek into my collarbone. I looked at the clock to see it was 1:24AM. Shit!

I gently shook his shoulder. He groaned and squeezed me tighter. I shook him again. In a low voice, "Jake, it's way past my curfew. My parents are going to kill me!" He stirred and looked into my eyes with a lazy expression.

"I already got their permission. Go to sleep." I smiled and pulled him even closer. He placed a kiss on my chest, right above my heart. I slowly drifted to sleep.

I have a boyfriend!
