Falling For The Jerk

Chapter 11

Chapter 11

The following week basically everyone knows Jake and I are a couple. We hang out more often and I love being around him. I never thought that I would dare a first class jerk, but I guess things change. Tomorrow is Christmas and tonight Jake says he wants to sleep early, so we can wake up early tomorrow morning. He says he can't wait to see my reaction to the present he got me and I honestly can't wait either. A lot of things have happened since the day at the mall, for instance Jade and Seth are a couple now. Seth asked her the day after Jake asked me.

She basically told the whole school. I could tell that Seth liked her, but I wasn't sure therefore didn't interfere. I'm happy for them, but feel kind if bad that Erin is single. Sometimes I wonder how she is the one single since she is gorgeous and has an amazing personality. She doesn't seem to mind though and assures us that the "Single life is pringle-licious" whatever that means.

Today, I'm going to dinner with Jake and he insists that it be kept a surprise. I don't care if he takes me to a fast food place because food is food and all food is good, except sushi. It's only 3:00 so I kill some time by cleaning up the room a little. Jake left early in the morning and hasn't been back since so I'm left alone. I rearrange my closet and color code it. Then I walk over to his closet and almost pass out.

There is clothing all over the floor and the hangers are almost all bare. I let out a sigh and start cleaning up. I first hang everything up in hanger, then put each clothing in categories (such as sweaters, pants, shorts, shirts, etc). When all of the clothes are hung up, I color code them in the categories. Last but not least, I line up all his shoes on the shoe rack.

When I'm finally done with all the organizing and cleaning I check the time to see that it's 5:00. I'm not sure if I should be getting ready for in formal attire or casual, so I decide to dress in a casually formal attire. I pick out a sea foam green chiffon hi-low top that little pearls on the color, matched with white skinny jeans and sea foam peeptoe heels which little bows on them.

I take a quick shower and get dressed into the outfit. I curl my hair with my curling wand and clip my bangs back with a little silver bow. I apply mascara, eye liner, a little concealer, smokey eye shadow, and finish with lip gloss.

"I GOT PASSION IN MY PANTS AND IM NOT AFRAID TO SHOW IT.. IM SEXY AND I KNOW IT!" I groan when I hear the ringtone Jake set for himself on my phone. I quickly run over and tap the 'answer' button and put it up to my ear.

"I'm going to change this ringtone.. I swear," I mumble into the phone.

"You know you don't want to sweetheart," he says chuckling.

"Where have you been all day?! Your closet was a mess by the way," I practically yell into the phone.

"It's a surprise.. I'm downstairs.. You cleaned my closet?!?" He says the last part surprised.

"Alright, I'm coming down.. And yes I cleaned what was left of your closet," I say sarcastically and hang up. I walk into my closet and grab my white coach clutch to match my outfit. On the way out, I look over myself in the full length mirror and smile in approval. Once downstairs I head to the parking lot to see Jake's car waiting. When he sees me he steps out of the car looking sexy.

He's wearing a white button up shirt tucked into black dress pants, black dress shoes, a black coat, and to touch it all up in a nerdy way, he added a black Bow tie. His hair is messy in an adorable way and he looks slightly nervous. He walks over to me and leans down to give me a peck on the lips. Then he opens the passenger door to his Audi R8 for me and I quickly sit down anxiously.

Once he's driving I can't stop but keep asking him where he's taking us. He just smiles and holds my hand, rubbing circles on the back of my hand. I give up after the 1000th time and just wait until we get there. After about 20 minutes he pulls into the parking lot of a cute little restaurant with a lake behind it. Once again he opens my door and when I get out of the car he intertwines his fingers with mine.
