HAVE A LITTLE FAITH: PART 2 (HARRY STYLES FANFIC)

17

The two hours we spend at the gym are quiet; Jake is barely even jogging on the treadmill he's using as I am covered in sweat from my upper body work out. Jake has his earbuds in his ears but he looks lost in thought so I end up throwing a towel at him to get his attention.

"What's up with you Jake? You haven't said a word for almost two hours."

"Just thinking I guess." He says quietly as he steps down off the treadmill and takes a seat on the machine next to the one I'm using.

"Want to talk about it?" I ask.

"Guess I'm just trying to figure out why I have to be the one to make that first move. Why can't Callie be the one to do it? If she makes the first move then I'll know it's the right thing to do."

"I don't think Callie is the type of girl that makes the first move Jake. I'm not saying she's an angel or anything but she seems a little more traditional you know?"

"You really think I should try to make out with her?"

"Definitely...maybe even put your hand up her shirt too." I say honestly because I remember Faith telling me that Callie keeps waiting for Jake to do something like that.

"What if you're wrong and she ends up punching me in the balls?"

"I'm not wrong Jake. You should invite her over for a movie tonight after the concert and make a move on her; just keep your clothes on that's all."

"What if she turns into some kind of wild animal when I kiss her?"

"I guess if that happens then just take note of what she does. Pay attention to the way she moves and go at her pace."

"How do I do that?"

"Don't overthink this Jake; just go with it you know? You know how girls are; when they decide they want what's in your pants they'll let you know."

"I don't know if I will be able to pick up on those kinds of signs. I've always just been too concerned with what I want to pay attention to what a girl wants."

"You'll figure it out."

"I'm sort of scared." Jake confesses quietly.

"You should tell her that. If you feel like you don't know what she wants; I'm sure Callie will reassure you."

"What if she doesn't though? What if she laughs at me and calls me a pussy?"

"She would never do that to you Jake. Callie really likes you."

"I know her and Faith have their little code and you and Faith have your own stupid code but can you at least tell me that Callie said that to Faith and that's how you sound so confident when you say she really likes me?"

"She tells her that all the time Jake. Relax, you're good man."

"Fuck!"

"Now what's wrong?" I ask in confusion.

"Do you think Faith told Callie how bad I was at fucking?"

"Jake..." I groan.

"Oh my god! She had to have! I mean why wouldn't she tell her that? That's what girls talk about right? I'm sure Callie knows all the dirty details about you and Faith down to the exact measurements of your freakishly large penis so why wouldn't Faith tell her how lousy I was?"

"Who cares if she did tell her that? Do you really think that Callie would be wasting her time with you if she was worried about that? Maybe she's willing to teach you."
