the story isn't going to drag out like this. just fyi. ahah I just needed to get stuff into the book.. aha

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Jake's family? Jake? Why?" I ask mixing the batter for the cake and trying no to sound awkward.

"Yeah." She said. "Why do you sound awkward?"

"I'm not sounding awkward." I lie, putting the cake batter into the pan and putting it into the oven. I take off my apron, hang it up in the pantry and walk up to my room pulling out my phone.  I dial Sierra's number and get out my sketch book while the phone rings. 

"Well, hello, Gorgeous. What happened with Jake?" she answers. 

"He's going to pay for everything, and guess what?" I say into the phone.

"What? Did he confess his love for you?"

"Yea-what? How do you know? I question her while i start drawing my homework. An eye.

"Honey," She takes a breath, "It's 100 percent obvious that he likes you and always has. You're just oblivious. You always have been."

"Okay, well, he did tell me he liked me-"

"I KNEW IT" She cuts me off.

"BUT. He's coming over for dinner tonight with his family.." She busts into fits of giggles.  "What?" I ask. 

"Did you know that your mom and his mom and dad are best friends?" More laughter.

"Really?" I draw the outline of the eye and start to draw the eyelashes.

"Yeah."

"Are you kidding?"

"Nope" She says bluntly.

"I'm doing the drawing assignment. You need to, too." I say erasing the smudge i created with my finger.

"Okay tell me how dinner goes. You have fun now. Bye bye. " The line goes dead.

I draw my eye for another 10 minutes, finally satisfied with it, I close my book and check the time. It's 5:34. I have another 6 minutes 'till the cake need to come out of the oven.

I pull out my phone and text Jake.

To Jake

You're coming over tonight, huh?

I get a text back almost immediately. 

To Taylor

I guess so. What did your mom say about your truck.?

To Jake

I haven't told her yet. I will after you guys leave so my mom doesn't start any drama. You know how she can be.

I slide my phone onto my bed and pick out some comfortable clothes. I grab a plain blue tight tee, and keep my yoga pants on. I go into the bathroom and fix my hair in makeup. I get out tmy curling wand and curl the tips of my hair. Satisfied with what I look like, I go down into my kitchen and pull out my cake. I put it on the cooling rack and get the frosting I had made earlier out of the fridge. I check the clock. 6:10. We have 20 minutes. I start frosting the cake. 

The doorbell rings and I fix myself before I open it. 

"Hey hey hey!" I say as I open the door. 

I get surrounded by four arms. "Hey beautiful girl! Just look at how you've grown!" Mrs. Abun says.

"Dear god. You must get all of the boys!" Mr. Abun says.

Jake's cheeks get red. "Hey Jake!" I pull him into a hug.

We go inside and my mom brings all of the food she's made to the  table. We dish up and the dinner is filled with laughter and small talk.

"So, Taylor." Mr. Abun starts.

"Yeah?" I ask, swallowing my food.

"How do you like the UNI?"

"I love it. It has an amazing art class. And the part for beauty school is amazing." I say tucking my long, blonde hair behind my ear.

"Thats good. Anything you think that we should change about it?"

"As of right now, everything is awesome and there are a bunch of students who love it there, besides myself." I answer.

"Good, good." He smiles and takes another bite of his food.

After dinner my mom takes all of the plates and dishes to the sink and I help her wash them

As. We all gather in the living room and my mom tells me to take Jake and show him around the house.

I show him the downstairs and then the upstairs, ending in my room. 

"Are you still going to take that drawing class?" I ask giggling of the memory of earlier today.

"No.. I only took that class because you were in it." He looks at me.

I giggle feeling my cheeks tint pink

~Jake's POV~

Her laugh is so cute. I just want to kiss her.

"So, uhm. Taylor?" I ask.

"Yeah?" Her head snaps up and her gaze meets mine.

"Do you wanna maybe go on a date sometime? Like tomorrow night?" I ask expecting to get rejected.

"I would love to." She smiles.

I find myself looking at her lips then her eyes, then her lips again. I lean in and she does too. Our lips brush and butterflies erupt in my stomach. Her lips are so soft. I deepen the kiss and out lips move in sync. Her door bursts open and she has to get her hands untangled from my hair that must have traveled up there during the kiss.

"Oh, uh. Hi mum." I say my cheeks inflamed. "Do we have to go?"

"Yeah. It's time. Bye Taylor!" My mom says and goes downstairs.

"Bye Taylor. I'll text you and tell you about the date tomorrow." I kiss her breifly and leave.
