"Do you want to sleep here tonight?", he asks me. I should decline but I can't, plus I'm so tired I could pass out right this moment. "You'll have to sleep in my bed with me though, I don't want to scare my parents by someone sleeping on the couch", he adds. I nod and we get out of my car before he brings me into his house. I follow him as quietly as possible when he leads me to his room. He looks at me once we're in his room and walks to his closet. He picks a shirt and some sweatpants and hand them to me while leading me to their bathroom. While I'm in the bathroom I hear people talk at the door but when I come outside only Jake is there. He enters the bathroom and after a little while he returns and leads us back to his room.

"I uh saw my mom in the hallway when you were in the bathroom and I let her know about you", Jake clarifies when I ask him about the talking. "Oh okay I thought I might have just imagined it since I'm so tired", I say. He laughs at that while he gets under the covers and pats beside him. "Get in and try to get some sleep", he says. I slide underneath the covers and fall asleep almost immediately. I get woken up by a light that suddenly turns on and I hear a female voice talking, I also feel Jake move to what I guess is sit up. I hear Jake's deep and raspy morning voice saying something about not having slept long and wanting to be left alone. I turn around in the bed and I hear a gasp across the room. "You brought a girl home?", the female asks. "She's the one that drove me but can you please for the love of God let us sleep for some more time we only have like 3 hours of sleep right now", Jake says with a hint of annoyance in his voice. The female says something before turning the light off and leaving, but I didn't really understand what. Jake sighs and goes to lay down again to sleep some more.

We get woken up again, but this time by an somewhat older sounding female voice telling us that it's already noon and we should get up to eat something. Jake says that we'll be there soon and the woman leaves. As I try to wake up, I feel a warm breath and something heavy on my chest. I open my eyes and notice that Jake's head is on my chest and his hand is very close to my breast underneath my shirt. Both his hand and head move, so I close my eyes again, pretending I'm still asleep. Jake must have noticed how he's draped over me because suddenly his hand and his head are gone from my body. "Chloë", he whispers. "Chloë", he repeats as I don't react the first time. I groan and open my eyes and the first thing I see is a blushing Jake. "We uh we should get up, it's noon already", he says. I groan again, stretch out and look at him. "You okay?", I ask while sitting up in the bed. "Y- Yeah I-I'm fine", he stammers as he gets out of his bed. I also get out and he brings me downstairs to the kitchen. 

"Thanks for waking us up Mom", he says to the woman standing there. "No problem darling, did you guys sleep well?", she asks while also looking at me. I nod as both Jake and his mom look at me. "Oh sorry Mom, this is Chloë, the girl I told you about earlier. Chloë, this is my mom", Jake introduces us. "Nice to finally meet you, I've heard quite a lot about you", his mom says as she comes to hug me. I hug her back and tell her that it is also nice to meet her. "Now you guys should eat something, there's food on the table so eat all you want", she says before kissing Jake's cheek and leaving us alone in the kitchen. "I've heard quite a lot about you? What's that all about?", I ask Jake. "I uh don't know?", he mutters. I raise an eyebrow while looking at him, but I don't push it any more. We eat the food his mom prepared for us and it tastes really good. We eat in silence as we both don't seem to know what to say and yet it's not that awkward between us.
