I look at my phone. "Jace it's 9 o'clock and I'm tired so you better get going." I say yawing.

His phone dings. He looks at his phone then he looks at me.

"Sam come on let's go." Jace says

I tilt my head. "Go where?"

He grabs my wrist and pulls me with him as he opens my window and climbs out.

"Sam I can't believe you didn't tell me you had a huge tree outside your window. This is awesome!" Jace whisper yells.

I give him a confused look. "How is having a tree outside my window awesome?"

Jace winks at me then leaps out the window and lands perfectly on the tree.

I gasp with amazement. "Jace how'd you do that?"

Jace laughs. "Do what? All I did was jump?"

I laugh. "Whatever. Stop playing around and get off that tree before you hurt yourself."

Jace grins."I'm not leaving without you."

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"Jump."

I laugh. "Jace is this one of your jokes?"

"No. I'm serious Sam. Come on, jump." Jace says bluntly.

I cross my arms. "There is no way I'm jumping."

Jace grunts. "Why not?"

"What do you mean why not? It's like a 3 feet jump Jace." I shrug.

Jace runs his fingers threw his hair. "Just do it. I'll catch you. I promise."

I shake my head no. "I'm not Jumping."

Jace rolls up his sleeves. "Sam, don't you wanna be able to look back on this moment when you're old and be able to say you had the guts to jump?"

I hesitate for a moment blown away by what he just said.

I take a deep breath. "Are you sure you'll catch me?"

Jace grins. "If I don't catch you I promise to take you to the hospital."

I smile. "Jace!"

He laughs. "I'm kidding, I'm kidding."

I take another deep breath "I don't know about this Jace. I'm scared."

"Don't you trust me?"

I hesitate a for a moment and then I nod my head yes.

Wow I trust Jace.

"On the count of three I want you too jump." Jace says.

I nod my head then I climb out of the window and prop myself up on the window seal. I slowly turn around and close the window. Then I turn and look at Jace.

"Okay Sam just don't look down." Jace says.

I look down. "Too late for that." I shudder.

Jace laughs. " I told you not to look down."
