Walking downstairs in my summer dress, Kylie was there talking with Jake as I sighed and walked into the room they were in.  They were watching a dumb show that Kylie was obsessed with so I just sat next to Jake on the couch and hugged him.

Kylie paused the show and turned to us and smiled, then it faded. 

"You know that ass is going to tour?" She asked me as she rolled her eyes. 

"Yes, I do," I mumbled. "He's not my problem anymore," We were both referring to Justin and of course I knew!  I've been keeping updated but kept it on the down low. "It's his life and career, it's not my life.  I don't run it. He can do whatever he wants and I won't give a shit."

"Also, rumors are him and Selena are back together and Justin has been a bad boy," Kylie said as she winked.  "Ass hole."

"Kylie, I get it!"  I muttered as I stood up, grabbed Jake's hand, pulled him up so he was standing, and pulled him toward the door.  "Bye!"  I yelled as I opened the door, stepped out with Jake, and slammed the door.

"Babe, calm down," Jake whispered as he slightly squeezed on my hand, making me pause. "It's gonna be okay."

I was still facing away from him as the tears fell from my eyes. My emotions were locked inside me and I can't believe they're coming out now. Shaking my head, I slowly started walking again.

Letting go of his hand, I covered the side of my face and walked toward the passenger seat so he wouldn't see my face. I have to be stronger than this!

Opening the car door, I stepped in as I turned toward the window, not daring to face Jake.

Feeling a hand on my thigh, I looked at it with my hair covering my face. "We don't have to go anywhere, Ari. We can stay here and watch movies for all I care." Jake mumbled as he brushed his hand on my thigh back and forth.

"Thanks Jake but I'm fine. Let's just get to the park? I need fresh air," I mumbled as I put my hand on his hand. The tears went away and I brushed them off. "I got a bit emotional. Do you have any makeup wipes?"

"Yeah, in the back seat," he chuckled as he started the car.

"Thanks!" I laughed as I searched through the back and found them. I grabbed them and started to wipe my face. I then realized something. . . "Why do you have makeup wipes? You don't wear makeup."

He bit his lip, shrugged, and his eyebrow lifted. "Just. . ." He hesitated to answer. "For emergencies like this. If you ever get emotional, I'm ready."

"Emotional?"

"I don't know, when you're on your period of some shit." He bit his lip again. He was acting suspicious but, I just ignored it.

"Guess I'm going natural today." I mumbled.

"You look beautiful," Jake said as he rubbed his hand up and down on my thigh. Smiling at his hand, I put my hand on his arms he started the car and pulled out of the driveway. "Cannot wait to get to the park and show you off to the little kids!"
