Jake's POV

"Angela what were you thinking!?" I whisper/yell at her as I drag her into her office and close the door.

"I don't know Jake!" She yells back. My word it's too early for this! She sits in her office chair and puts her head in her hands.

"He kissed me, Jake. I didn't kiss him." She whispers. I gritt my teeth at that. The fact that he even thought to touch her makes my skin crawl. I love this girl and have recently decided to ask her out here this little self centered jerk gets to ruin everything. I'm ripped out of my thoughts by Angie's gentle sobs. "I swear, if I knew that's what was gonna happen I would've sent him inside." I sigh at kneel next to her, gently rubbing her back.

"I know Ange, I know. It's not your fault. He shouldn't have done that. But he did. And now we have to deal with it." She nods quietly. "Go get some sleep, Hun. You look like the walking dead. I'll handle this."

"No, Jake. I can't let you handle it on your own." She starts to protest but I shake my head.

"Angela. Go inside right now. Lay down and calm down and try to get some sleep. If I can't handle it we will deal with it in the morning. Go on." I say kissing her head. She sighs and leans into me for a moment before she gets up and heads inside. Now it's my turn to sigh as I start to try and find that boy.

It took me a few minutes but I finally found him sitting on the dock out by the pond. He just sat there staring at the water. I watched him for a second before walking to the edge of the dock to sit with him.

"You mind?" I ask gesturing to the space next to him. He doesn't look up, he simply shrugs. I take that as my go ahead and sit down. "You know, if it helps at all, you're not the only one I've sat with on this dock after Angela turned them down." I say quietly. He sighs and runs his hands through his hair.

"So you mean I'm not the first idiot that thought he was different?" I chuckle at that.

"Nope. And I promise you won't be the last." He shrugs again. Now it's my turn to run my hands through my hair. "Look, I promise it's not you. Angela is very professional. There's no way she'd allow anything to happen between you two as long as you're her patient. I can say this though, she's never cried over anyone else." He perks up a little at that.

"So you're saying if I wasn't her patient I'd have a chance?" He asks, the excitement in his voice evident.

"I'm really not sure where you're going with this." I state, slightly confused. He smiles.

"If I stop being her patient, she won't feel like she can't because the doctor/patient thing." I shake my head.

"Yeah but she won't just drop your case to be with you." I state.

"But if I finish this by the end of the summer she'll stop being my doctor. If she lets me go back on tour she'll have to transfer me to someone else. She wouldn't be my doctor." He responds almost giddy. I sigh. I'm obviously not going to tell him she'll never stop being his doctor. Anything to get him to participate, right?

"Well, sounds like you have a plan." I look down at my watch. "Now, it's almost two a.m. go on back to the house and get some sleep. You'll need it to properly endure Angela." He nods and stands up.

"Thank you, Jake." I nod my hat at him and he runs back up to the house.

Did I just set some guy up with the girl I love?


Angela's POV

I  wake up to the sun shining through my windows and the sound of four boys shouting downstairs. I look at my clock and realize it's almost nine thirty in the morning. Jake must've turned off my alarm and done all the morning chores, including waking and feeding the boys. Stretching, I get up and stumble around my room for a few minutes before finding a simple pair of jeans and one of jakes old t-shirts. I throw my hair up in a pony tail and stick it through a hat. I then pull on my boots and head downstairs.

"Why, look at that! It's sleeping beauty!" I hear Calum exclaim. I roll my eyes and pour my coffee then sit at the table.

"Haha very funny. Just remember when you first got here I couldn't get you up before noon." I spit out and continue with my coffe. Ashton laughs and Calum hits him. After a few moments of silence I'm finally awake enough to carry out a conversation.

"So, who wants to go first today with their one on one?" I ask and surprisingly, Michael looks up.

"I will. if that's ok with everyone else." He states hardly above a whisper. Everyone but Jake looks as shocked as I feel. Jake has something to do with this. I'll have to find out what.

"Sure Michael. That sounds perfect." I say and smile at him. I didn't think he'd want to talk with me after last nigt, but I guess something changed.
