Chapter 7

It was almost 3 o'clock and I'm still at the hospital. I then realized that Jack had asked me to go to the cinema with him tonight but unfortunately I had to stay here.

Just then the doctor came to give me a check up. "Open your mouth" he ordered

After he checked me I asked him"When can I go home? What time exactly?"

"Oh umm maybe around 8?" He said

"Can I go out early? I asked

"Uhh... I don't know but I'll tell you when you can go. Alright?" He said

I sat there quietly...."Oh great... I had promised to go to the cinema with Jack and now I blew it....just great"

About half an hour after that, Jack came to visit. He sat on the edge of the bed and smiled at me.

"About going to the movie tonight" I said

"It's ok. I get it, you need to get a lot of rest. We can just go another day" Jack said and walks out of the room

I called mum so she could tell the doctor that I'm good now so that I could go home, but surprisingly the doctor came and told me that I could go home right now. That's when I called my mum to pick me up.

"Ahhh, so good to be back home" I said

"Welcome home hun" dad said

I went to the kitchen and talked to mum.

"Mum, is it ok if I go out tonight?" I said

"Where and with who exactly?" Mum asked

"To the cinema with Jack. He bought us tickets and I couldn't say no because he might get upset" I said

"Alright then..when are you going?" Mum asked

"Around 8 o'clock" I said

"Do you need a lift?"Mum suggested

"It's ok we'll just walk" I said

I went back to my bedroom and lay down on the bed. I slept for almost 3 hours and I just remembered that I had to get ready. So I got up, washed myself and got dressed.

I was about to wear the black dress that Harry gave me but I just don't feel like it now..I don't know why... I instead, decided to wear my white skirt, striped tank top with a leather jacket and a wedge heel. I braided my hair to a side so it look neat and tidy.

I ran downstairs and told mum that I'll be going out now. I walked to Jack's house and stood in front of his door. I pressed the doorbell and waited patiently, and finally his mum opened the door.

"Oh yes...Erika. How can I help you and may I say, you look very beautiful" she said

"Thank you..uhh is Jack home?" I asked

"Jack is upstairs, why won't you come in for a sec while I'll call Jack" she said

I walked inside and sat on the sofa. The sofa was very soft and bouncy. I looked around the room and saw a cat crawling at me. It's so fluffy and chubby, I picked the cat up and carried it around the room.

Then I realized that Jack had already arrived in the living room so I put the cat down and turned around. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. When I looked at him my heart started to melt because he haven't got his shirt on and those muscles and 6 packs are on fleek. He was biting his lips and he puts his fingers on his hair and flipped it backwards.

"Erika! You're out already? He asked

I dwelled for a sec and said "Uhh, the doctor said I can leave early so I did. So..you wanna go to that movie or what?"

"Oh yea. I'll be right back" he said and went upstairs

I then sat on the sofa couldn't stop thinking of him. Omg I could just kissed him right now, he is so hot. Without realizing that I was saying it out loud..

Jack said "Go ahead..feel free"

"Oh Jack. That was quick" I blushed

"C'mon then lets go" he said grabbing my hand.

As we walked down the path he asked "So, you still want to kiss me?"

"Only if you have your shirt off" I joked

"Sure...what ever you say" he said, almost taking his shirt off

"I was just joking" I said

"Yea yea...I know you want it" he said

When we reached the cinema we grabbed our seat and when we were inside I saw Harry and Rachel. I tried to ignored them but Rachel came up to us.

"Oh hey there. Omg Erika, I'm glad you're ok. Did anything broke? You know... your face or something?" Rachel said giggling

"Well miss dirt bag, the only thing that's broken is your heart" I replied with anger

Jack grabbed me and dragged me somewhere else. "Don't get mad" Jack said "she's just jealous of you" he smiled

We sat at the middle row on the right side. Jack went to get us some popcorn then suddenly Brook appears next to me.

"Erika!! You..um..You look gorgeous" Brook said

"Thank you" I said "are you alone?"

"Well, yea. Look, I better go now, bye" he said and hugged me

Not long after that, Jack finally came back. The movie then starts and we were on our seat.

After the movie finishes we went straight out from the cinema. Harry and Rachel came towards us.

"Erika, you're out already? And wow! You look nice" Harry complimented

Jack then suddenly grabbed my waist and leaned me against the wall. He kissed me on the lips in front of Harry and Rachel. I wanted him to stop but his lips were so addicting , I couldn't stop biting it and it seems like he couldn't stop kissing me either. I could feel that he was really leaning towards me because I couldn't move forwards.

He finally gave it a break because Harry and Rachel had left.

But was that all a plan just to make Harry jealous? Or did he really mean it?

"What was that all about?" I asked

"Nothing..." Jack replied "Unless it wasn't enough? I could give you some more?" He joked

When we were walking back home we were really quiet. Until Jack said "Erika you look like a diamond tonight, pretty and worth a lot. I just want you to know that I love you more than anyone else does"

I stood starring onto his sparkling light blue eyes. "I love you too Jack and I would do anything to get you to be mine" I said

"You don't have to, I'm already yours" Jack said as he placed his hand on my chin and bought me closer to his lips.

Those light pink lips and those bright blue eyes, I just couldn't resist so I lean towards and kissed him. I placed my arm around his neck and pulled him closer.

We stopped..and kissed...and stopped again. "Don't ever leave me" Jack said

"I won't.....I promise" I said

We finally reached home and Jack gave me a last kiss on the lips and left.

I went upstairs happily and lay down on the bed smiling.
