Has He Really Changed?

Chapter 3

"Why do you have that jacket on? It isn't even chilly" Christian commented on my attire.
"Well you see, there's nothing under this jacket" I flashed him a seductive smile.
"Nothing like nothing at all" he gulped?
"Nothing at all" I stalked towards him.
"No bra, no panties" he asked nervously?

"Nope" I popped the p.
I pushed him down on my bed and got on top of him. I leaned over and started kissing him. Tongue and all. 
"Christian. I want you" I said unbuttoning my  jacket.

I suddenly woke up to the most annoying noise. When I went to slam down on my alarm clock I realized that I was wet down there. Oh fuck! I had a wet dream about Christian. Brain brain brain. Why? Why must you do this to me? 

*** 

All day I have been avoiding Christian. He had walked up to me in the halls and grazed my arm. I felt tingles then images of my dream flashed into my head so I just made up an excuse to leave. But he's gonna come over soon. He's says it's important and he really needs someone to talk to. Now I'm at home in my bed, and I finally got my new phone. First thing to do facetime Jeremiah.

"Hey! Look who's got a new phone" Jeremiah smiled.
"Yes 'tis I Teressa Aria Magarino" I flipped my hair.
"Now that you have a phone we need to talk" he put on a serious face.
"Okay shoot" I sat criss cross.

"Be completely honest with me."
"Honesty is the best policy" I grinned.

"So I was talking to my friends and..." My door slowly opened and there stood Christian. I don't know why but I couldn't help but smile.
"Hey Christian" I smiled.

"Christian?! What is Christian doing in your room" Jeremiah freaked?!
"He said he needs someone to talk to" I focused back on Jeremiah.
"Hey Christian! Keep your hands off my girlfriend!!!"
"Okay. But first she has to keep her hands off me" he snatched my phone. I crawled off my bed and snatched me phone back.

"Bye Jeremiah" I threw my phone on my bed.

"Something is seriously wrong with you two" I sat down on my bed.
"Maybe you can fix me" he wrapped his arms around me.
"So what is it you needed to talk about" I removed his arm?
"Hmm?"

"The thing that's been bothering you" I went on.

"Oh yeah. Isn't it obvious? You've been bothering me" he confessed.
"That doesn't make any sense I barely talk to you."
"That's what bothers me" he placed his hand on my cheek. Honestly I love the feeling I get when Christian touches me. It's like a million fireworks go off in my bed, just from one touch. Before I realized it Christian was leaning in for a kiss. 

"Christian we can't" I leaned back.
"Why not" he pouted?
"I'm with Jeremiah now, and I don't plan on cheating on him" I stood up.
"Do you love him" he asked?
"Huh" I pretended like I didn't hear the question?

"Do you love Jeremiah" he started walking to me? There's no doubt that I love Jeremiah. But that's not the problem. The problem is if I'm in love with Jeremiah.
"Yes I love Jeremiah" I said plainly.
"I don't mean love like you care about him. I mean love like you can't get enough of this person, and they're constantly on your mind. Love like when they touch you your body lights up like a firework. I'm talking about love that even when this person is highly annoying you still can't help but smile when you see them. Are you in love with Jeremiah" he stood behind me.

"No" I confessed.
"Do you think you'll ever be in love with Jeremiah?" 

"What does it matter to you" I faced him?
"It matters because I'm in love with you, and as long as I'm alive I won't stop trying to get you to be mine."

"Oh yeah, and when did you realize these feelings? When you decided to show everyone on the basketball team the video that you took of us with out my permission" I jabbed his chest?!!
"I realized it on the first day of school. You know I was planning to totally avoid you, but something drew me to you" he held my finger.
"I am in love with you Resse. I am so completely and utterly head over heels for you, and I know you feel the same about me" he said with so much emphasis while staring into my eyes.

Before I realized it the door was shut closed and Christian was gone. I sat down on my bed with the feeling on him holding my finger still lingering. The image of his eyes still peering down on me.

"Honey bun, we were calling you for like 5 minutes" daddy walked in.
"Sorry daddy I didn't hear you" I stood up.
"Well dinner is ready, you coming down?"
"Yeah, I'll be down in a minute."

I'm watching the titanic and all I can think of is Christian. The words he said still replaying in my head. Stupid Christian he's always doing something. How dare he tell me that I'm in love with him. I am not in  love with him. The nerve of that boy.

"Are you okay? Your face is getting red" daddy asked?
"No I am not okay!"
"What happened" he sighed sitting on my bed?
"He told me that he's in love with me, and then he had the audacity to tell me that I'm in love with him too!!"
"How dare he tell me how I feel about him?! If he wants to be in love with me fine! No not fine he can not be in love with me!!!"

"What's so bad about him telling you he's in love with you?"
"Daddy are you even listening?! I hate him. We hate him" I stared at him intensely.
"What?! Why do you hate Jeremiah?"

"Jeremiah? What? No I'm talking about Christian."
"Oh Christian. How dare he tell you that he's in love with you?!"

"Exactly! I'm gonna kick his ass!!"
"No I am. I'm you father. I am here to protect and serve you" he said in a knight voice.
"How 'bout we do it together" I smiled.
"Yes! Daddy daughter ass kicking!!!!"
"Woooooo!!!! Let's go" I jumped off my bed.

"Where are you two going" dad asked us?
"We're going to kick some ass" I high fived daddy!
"No you're not."
"Okay let me tell you what happened. Christian told me he's in love with me, then he had the audacity to tell me that I'm in love with him too" I said.

"Now we can all go kick some ass" I raised my fist!!
"No we can all go to our rooms" dad grabbed daddy.

"But" I pouted.
"No buts. Just take it as a compliment" dad walked away with daddy.
"Don't worry honey bun we'll kick his ass some other time."
