I shower at Mariah's. When I am done I throw on a pair of Adidas sweat pants and a Adidas sweat shirt. I throw my hair in a messy bun. I walk back into Mariah's room and grab my phone. I walk back to the house with Delilah and Mariah.
    "Three-Pointer I've missed you." Jackson says as I get up to the driveway.
    "I've missed you to Jackson." I say as he pulls me into a hug. I let out a deep breath. We sit there holding each other for about five minutes but I pull away when I hear a camera shutter.
   I look at Mariah and she says,"Don't look at me!"
  I look at Delilah and after staring at each other for a minute everybody starts cracking up. We head into the house to eat because breakfast is done. Landon looks at me and smiles. I smile back and feel my cheeks start to heat up. Jackson glares.
    "Don't worry Jacky she'll love you one day,but for now I'm the one!" He says with a smirk on his face. Jackson pushes the table and walks upstairs.
   "I'm gonna go talk to him." I say and everybody nods.
    I run up the stairs to Jacksons room. I knock. When nobody answers I just walk inside. I run up to Jackson, jump on him and then kiss him. He's a little surprised at first but he kisses back. When I pull away I smile at him.
   "What was that for?" He asks out of breath.
   "Jackson I love you not Landon, I've always loved you. Sure Landon was here and yeah he was cute and all but I've always had feelings for you. I never thought you'd like me back and finding out you do is a big surprise. I love you more than I love the world itself. You make me happy and without you and your witty sarcasm I don't know where I'd be. I know 14 is a little young to fall in love but Jackson I love you." I say breathing a little hard towards the end.
   "Leslie I love you too." He says. We kiss and then I cuddle into his arms and fall asleep.
   When I wake up it's almost lunch time. It's 11:30. I took a 3 hour nap. I'm still in Jacksons arms. He looks so peaceful when he's sleeping. I don't want to wake him up. Oh who am I kidding. I glide slowly out of his arms. I look for the air horn I placed under his bed last time I was here. I see it and I grab it. I slowly get back up and inch towards Jackson. When I get to his ear I whisper,"Jackson." He turns a little and I put the air horn by his ear. I push the button down and let the loud noise feel the room.
  "No I'm going to die the world is ending I heard a bell!" He screams. I laugh so hard my face is red and I can't breathe.
   "That wasn't funny babe!" He says leaning in for a kiss.
   "It was hilarious!" I say and then we kiss.
I walk downstairs with Jackson by my side. We sit down on the couch wear every one is watching the movie Blood In Blood Out. Jackson sits down and I lay my head on his lap letting my feet stretch out.  He leans down and kisses my forehead. I push my lips against his and we kiss. It turns into a make out session and everyone is just kind of staring at us.
  "Umm sorry?" I say in a questioning voice.
  I hear a ding on my phone signaling I have a notification from Instagram. I check it. It's the picture of Jackson and I hugging. The caption says Goalss. It has 392 likes. It also has 30 comments. All of the comments are nice except for one. The comment is from Macy. She said," eww out of all people he picks her... Jackson has terrible taste look at how fat she is!" 
  I feel tears roll down my cheeks. I know I'm not good enough for him. I'm fat and ugly. I've been told I was ugly by my own father. Jackson should date someone his own age who he actually likes.
  "What's wrong Hun?" Jackson asks.
  I show him the comment and I see him typing back.
  He commented,"oh shut it Macy your just jealous because I wouldn't date you your the fat and ugly one. Leslie is beautiful. I'm happy with her. Back off because if you ever ever hurt her or say something to her I will hurt you it doesn't matter if it's physically or emotionally I will hurt you for her!"
  I smile and comment back saying,"thanks babe!"
  He leans in and we kiss. Everyone says,"Aww!"
  I look past the movie at the doorway. Standing in the doorway is a person. Landon.
