Sincerely, Yours. A Jackson Guthy Love Story

Chapter 7: Seating Arrangements

{A/N: So, I hope that anyone reading this is enjoying, sorry for the hiatus I didn't know more than two people actually read this. ummmmm, what more can I say? This fanbase is great and Jackson is great, I hope I do you people justice in writing and I create something yall can bond over and love}

  Leah looked up at Jackson and smiled lightly. He kissed her right temple and she subsequently closed her eyes. She couldn't believe how steady she became in his presence. How could he like her? She was pushed into a doubtful thought and zoned out while Jackson placed small kissed around her face. He moved to her shoulder then down her arm and then her hand. He looked up and saw her worried face.  

" Lee, babe" 

"Oh-wh-wait-what" 

"Is everything ok?" 

"Totes" the sound was scary to Leah. 

"Yeah,ok" Jackson rolled his eyes, he didn't know why she was acting that weird. He looked back up at her, her eyes were huge and staring at him. She coughed dryly and Jackson knew she was about to cry. "Oh, no no no no don't...oh!" He hurried to her quickly, "Baby, no don't you cry". He placed his lips on hers quietly, and she groaned. He held her shoulders while kissing her and he felt them relax. "What is wrong? I know something is just please tell me".  

"It's just....oh nothing I am totally fine" 

"Are you sure?" 

"Yeah yeah, let's go home already I'm sick of being here" 

They packed up And got ready to go and went through the motions of signing out and getting lectured by the doctor to "chill out dude". Jackson dropped her off at her house and kissed her goodbye promising to pick her up tomorrow. She walked inside and immediately took a shower then threw herself on her plush bed instantly falling asleep.

Jackson picked Leah up the next morning and even picked up Hannah too. They jammed out to classic rock on the way to school.  

"OHHHH WE'RE HALWAY THERE OHHHHOO LIVIN' ON A PRAYER!!!" 

They all laughed simultaneously, then headed to class. Leah couldn't help but notice everyone staring and gasping as she and Jackson walked down the hall hand in hand. It was really nerve wrenching, she had never received this much attention in all of her high school career.  

"Uh jack?" 

"What is it" 

"They're all staring" she said through a fake smile. 

"Let em' " 

She winced and her fake smile faded away. As if this torture wasn't enough, she had a whole 'nother thing coming at lunch. She and Han' were on their way to their usual table when Jackson called their names and waved them over. He was sitting with basically all of the most popular people in school. While her and Hannah walked towards his table, it was almost as if she could hear everyone's head turning and watching. They sat down awkwardly and smiled painfully at the people's concerning faces.  

"Guys, this is Leah my girlfriend and Hannah, Leah's best friend." 

Leah felt something inside flip when he said girlfriend, but as she looked over to Charlie she could tell that the word had flipped about ten different things in her. Instead of the judgement attack she anticipated, everyone was quite pleasant. She was getting invited to events left and right. 

 "oh my gosh, LE-AH. You HAVE  to come with us to our mani-pedi sesh on Saturday"

"Oh I-"

"Uh! Alice! Don't forget to invite Leah's beautiful friend Hannah".

That comment put Leah to a level of ease, for if her life was to continue with this typical-teen plot line then Hannah would be gone at the expense of being with Jackson. Thankfully, the new girls seemed to like Hannah just as much as they liked her.  

"Echemm" a fake cough came from the corner and the new girls leaned back simulatneously "Leah, will you come with me to the bathroom". 

 It was Charlie, and the new girls looked at each other with big eyes. This could not be good. Leah stood up and could hear the tension looming over the table. She looked down at Hannah, who shrugged, then at Jackson who then stood up also. He leaned over to her.

        "It's ok, watch this" he whispered in her ear. He pushed her hair behind her left ear, and leaned in kissing her lips sotly. He full on made out with her and Leah felt the blood rush to her cheeks. 

 "Ugh, get a room" Charlie clicked away in her heels "I can pee by my self actually". 

       After she was gone, the girls leaned in again. 

 "Omg! that was totes great!"

 'Yeah!" said another girl "No one ever escapes the bathroom"

  Apparently, Charlie took all of her worst enemies to the bathroom to scare them out of their minds and what not. After lunch, Leah and Hannah were still socializing with all the girls.

       "Excuse me ladies". It was Jackson, and he took Leah by the hand. She could still hear the girls chatter and Hannah's occasional giggle. "Hey".

  "Hi, your friends are really sweet".

 'I just knew they would love you" 

   "Did you now?"

 "Yes" he stopped " I knew they would love you, just like-"

 The bell rung, "We gotta get to class Jack!!". Leah giggled and they took off running down the hall.
