Let's Go Back

004

Hey guys!! So, its been a while. Like, a longggggggg time. I know I said I'd update every weekend, but I just got so busy and writing this takes like 2 hours so I guess I just either did homework or relaxed. And I do apologize because I kind of suck at this whole writing thing. I finished this like last week but half got deleted and it was so frustrating. But, without further ado, chapter 4 :)) btw this is Jesses pov.

November 1st 8:08 am

I was in a state of subconciouness. I faintly heard the sound of snoring and I smelled hairspray and lemon. Quite an odd mixture. I remembered how Marco blabbed on about how he loved waking up after a one night stand and wrapping his arms around this girl, even though he said she ended up wacking him and then getting pissed off when he called her the wrong name. He told us with his usual grin and even pointed out another girl he had slept with until we smacked him.

"She had these big, blue eyes. I think that's what drew me in. It was exhilirating, and enticing." Marco said making large hand gestures.

"Quite a range of vocabulary you got there." Oliver said with raised brows.

Marco gave his signature wide grin where his eyes lit up and his eyebrows raised slightly.

"I really think I can ace this English vocab quiz, ya know."

"Do you really?" Oliver replied narrowing his eyes. We knew that Marco studied about a total of five minutes for any quiz. Tests usually got thirty minutes to an hour. It really just depended on his mood and whether or not he was "getting horny".

Marco snorted. "Um, hell no. I'll just write Justine a note at the top with a cute little drawing of an elephant."

We both rolled our eyes at this. Marco also referred to the teachers by their first name. He had gotten three detentions once, just for calling our principal Joe.

Suddenly, Marco's eyes widened. He coughed at us and Oliver and I gave each other a look. A girl with her back to us was putting books in her locker. I made the connection. It was the girl Marco had been talking about for ten minutes straight. That was a record.

He had told us about how she was "one of his bests" and very fiesty. But, I could tell that was exactly what made him like her so much. The guy even compared her eyes to endless oceans and then started singing Your Body is a Wonderland by John Mayer. This earned some glares from teachers and a few amused glances from students.

Thinking of this, I came up with a master mind plan to do just this. I moved ever so slightly and reached forward for the warmth of her body. I felt space. Huh, that's weird. She didn't leave did she? But, I was still sleepy and I was in no mood to open my eyes and look. It just took too much effort. I reached forward again. Maybe she was on the edge of the bed or something. I kept reaching until- Shit.

Gravity yanked me off the back and I fell off the bed onto the floor with a loud thump. I groaned and rolled onto my side. What a great start to my day.

"Jesse?? Holy crap, are you okay??" A worried female voice spoke from above me.

"Yeah, I just kinda uh, fell. Off. The bed." I said with a groggy voice.

I finally cracked my eyes open and looked up. She was leaning over my bed and staring at me with a makeup free face, messy hair and a wrinkled shirt. The sun streamed in at a certain angle from behind her and gave her a warm glow. She looked almost angelic. I realized I must have been staring at her because she wrinkled her brows and gave me a questioning glance. I pulled myself up with a groan and gave her an awkward smile. Typical.

"So, do you want some breakfast or something? On Saturdays, my dad makes pancakes and my mom cooks up some dang good eggs and bacon." I said motioning downstairs.
