Sapphires

Chapter 7

How embarrassing, Jake saw me cry like some weak pussy. I need to get it together.

I sat down at the table , chicken and broccoli for dinner , just what someone chubby like me gets to eat. Stop it! Push the hormones down.

Jake decided he want to sit next to me , yay, and his parents were sitting opposite us. They said there prayer and I said mine. There respectfulness towards my religion is quite surprising , but I still am great full for it.

While I was nibbling on some broccoli , Jake 's hand found its way to my thigh. The hormones are climbing back up. I swallowed my food with much effort.

I looked at Jake who seemed to be enjoying my struggle. I tried to swat his hand away , but his phone rang. He excused himself from the table and went to go and answer it.

There was an akward silence between me and his parents , until we heard a loud crash. Jake came into the dining room , shouting something in Latin. He looked furious, no furious was an understatement, he looked ready to murder.

"Go outside and calm down Jake !" his father shouted , making the walls vibrate.

Jake went through the backdoor and slammed it shut. To my surprise , the door dropped to the floor ,leaving a cold breeze coming from the kitchen.

"Maybe you should go to bed Laurette, it's been a long day for you." Chavonne asked with a warming smile.

"Good night ." I said while putting my dishes in the kitchen sink. I was about to go upstairs when my dumbass curiosity got the better of me. I had to know what Jake was mad about. Before I could change my mind,I hopped over the door to go outside.

Holy Shit ! It's freezing, the God of Death took away the ability for Abigolians to keep a constant body heat , like Jake. He also took away our night vision , which meant that I could only see a fence surrounding a large garden. I walked over to the gate and saw a figure sitting one the bench.

I walked towards the bench, wait a minute , what am I going to tell him?

"Are you cold?" he asked in the most sexiest voice I have ever heard.

I didn't respond.

"Of course your cold." he said while taking off his hoodie and handing it to me. I put it on and went to sit down on the bench.I noticed he was wearing a Onerepublic shirt, my favorite band.

"What happened in there ?" I hope he heard that , it came out more of a whisper.

"I will answer that question , if you tell me why your were crying ?" great, I fell right into that trap.

Suddenly he put is arms around me , my knees actually went numb , and moves me closer so almost every inch of our body is touching, and now all of me went numb.

"A story for a story ?" he asked while looking straight into my eyes.

"Fine, but you have to tell yours first ." Like hell I was going to tell him.

"Fair , but first you have to promise me something?" he said with a sneaky grin.

"What?" I asked with a shaky voice.

"Kiss me ."

That was all I heard before I felt his lips against mine.
