I was so excited to get out of school that it took 5 minutes for it to hit me that jake was walking me home. I don't know its being around him or if I just forget about everything going on around me but | couldn't stop smiling! When he is around I don't think about my "family", or all the girls that hate me because I'm different or because I'm not skinny, pretty, or rich.
"Are you ok babe?" Jake comes up behind me and gives me a hug. Why does he keep calling me babe, not that I'm complaining.
"Yeah I'm good, just tired from school."
"Do you want to come to my house, I mean if its ok with your parents?"
"Well, my dad left us a year ago and my mom works late every night, so I can do whatever." it actually hurts to say that, my own dad didn't think I was worth it, he didn't care about me he just, left!
I didn't realise I was crying until I felt the warm liquid tears rolling down my cheeks. Jake gave me a hug and just as I was about to let go he held me even tighter, honestly I think its the happiest I have been in a long time.
"Are you ok?"
"Yeah ill be ok, thanks." well, what can I say that I haven't already. He is amazing and as much as I try I cant get him off of my mind!
"lets go catch up with the group, ok?" I just nodded my head in response.
He grabbed my hand and started running towards the group.
When we finally caught up, everyone was on their way into a house.
"Who's house is this?" I say very confused. I knew it wasn't Meghan's or Maddie's because I had been to their houses before.
"Its mine babe." he doesn't wait and starts walking towards his house.
In the house Meghan and Maddie were talking to a lady, she seemed very sweet but I'm extremely nervous. I know its not a big deal to him but for me I'm meeting his mom!
"Hello, I'm jakes mom, but call me Catherine." she said in the sweetest voice. "honey, are they staying for supper?" everyone tried to stifle their laughs but he is so cute when he blushes.
"Yeah I think so mom." Jake grumbles out," come on guys." Jake says leading us right to regular sized room, it was nice because the rest of his house was so big and although it was inviting, I feel very intimidated.
What snapped me back into reality was Meghan walking towards me.
"Hey, I love you SO much, Aiden is so amazing, and cute, and sweet, and aagh I just love him!!!"
"Well your a little excited, has he asked you out yet?"
"Um of course not, he doesn't like me anyway. he is just being nice obviously." I cant believe she thinks he doesn't like her, everyone can tell their feelings for each other are mutual.
"Do you want to sit down?" Jake asks Maddie, Meghan and I its probably because we are just standing there awkwardly.
"Ya sure" as soon as I say that his arms wrap around my waist and pull me onto his lap. oh no I'm squishing him, he is going to realise how heavy I am and push me off and never talk to me again! I tried to get up but he just tightened his grip.
After a lot of talking and fooling around jakes mom called us down for supper, I was actually quite comfortable around Jake, Aiden, and matt. I knew Meghan and Maddie would be instantly comfortable with them but I'm a little more shy so I am surprised with myself that I'm not being shy.
We head for the stairs in a big group but Maddie pulls me to the side,
"Guess what."
"I don't know, what?"
"Aiden asked me to go out with him tomorrow night!"
"Wow I'm glad you connected so quickly."
"Girls, you coming?" jakes mom asks from downstairs.
"Yeah coming"
Dinner was delicious, we talked all about each of our lives. Jakes mom told us lots of stories about Jake as a kid.
Dessert was almost finished and jakes mom said she was going out for the night with a group of her friends and said to stay as late as we would like, and if needed there were plenty of spare rooms.
As soon as the door closed Aiden and Matt ran to some unknown room. Turns out its a theatre tonight room, my god its so big.
"What movie are we watching tonight?" Jake asks walking into the room
"How bout a scary movie?" Matt asks
Maddie and Meghan look over at me, they know how I am about scary movies. I just gave a slight nod to say ill be ok.
"Sinister?"
Jake put the movie and started playing it.
We were all siting on the couches, Matt was holding Maddie close to him and Meghan was on Aidens lap.
Jake sat down beside me, he then pulled me into his side and wrapped his arm around my waist,I felt goosebumps everywhere he touched.
Ten minutes into the movie I started to get tired, I fell asleep in his arms with him being the only thing on my mind.
