May I Have This Dance

Chapter 28

Jack's POV
I'm woken up by my sister slapping me on my back super hard. She laughs at me before exiting my room.
"Happy birthday dick hole," she yells going down the stairs.

"Thanks fuck in the ass!"
I get out of bed and get dressed. Once I have my maroon hoodie and black jeans on I go brush my teeth. Before I go downstairs I put on my shoes and beanie. When I get downstairs ma hands me a bagel with strawberry cream cheese. She goes to kiss my head but I step away from her.
"Can I at least have a hug from my baby boy?"
I roll my eyes as I give her a quick hug.
"Where has the time gone?"

"Out the door which is what I should be doing since Mark is waiting for me."

"Right well have a nice day sweetie," she tells me before I go out the door.
When I close my door I'm met with the familiar brown eyes that I absolutely love. Mark smiles and hands me a wrapped up box. I carefully take it from his hands and he stops me from opening it. He takes my wrist and has me get in the car before I can open it. Once he begins to drive off that's when he says I can open it.
As I tear through the wrapping paper there is a permanent smile on my face. Once I get down to the box I get my house key and go through the tape. When I open up the package there's a green laptop case. I take it out and flip it over. My name is printed in cursive on it in black. Mark glances at me with a smile.
"Mark this is awesome thank you."

"Look inside it," Mark says with his smile growing wider.
My eyebrows furrow together as I unzip it. When I open the case there's a package of candy and a slip. I take it out and look at the front. My face is in awe at it. It's the picture of Mark and I on the night he asked to be my boyfriend. With all the lights surrounding us and us kissing the winter wonderland.
"Mark this is absolutely amazing. Thank you, you didn't have to."

"Of course I did! It's your birthday! Everything good that happens to you today is what you deserve. So you like it," Mark smiles.

"I love it," I smile wide kissing him on the cheek. Mark grabs my hand as he keeps driving us to the school.
I look at the photograph with a closed smile. Mark kisses my hand as he hangs onto it tightly.
"I think I'm gonna have to replace our old photos of us from the lake with this one."
Mark chuckles as he pulls into the parking lot and I set all the stuff in the box. I put it in the trunk not needing to take anything in. Our hands lace together as we go down the hall with smiles on our faces. God I could look at that smile all day. We get to Mark's locker since I already have everything I need in my backpack. I lean against the wall beside his locker as he gets his crap.
"So I was thinking we could get lunch off campus with the guys today," Mark tells me getting his book.

"Sounds wonderful, but I'll need it get money."

"It's your birthday I'll pay baby boy."

"You pay for everything though. I feel bad."

"Yes, but it's your birthday and you deserve to be treated amazing today," Mark says with a small smile before kissing my forehead.
Mark closes his locker and we walk down to our class. On the way we stop by the guys who are whispering about something. That is until they see us and stop talking about whatever they were conversing about. All three of them wish me a happy birthday and I say thank you with a smile.
"Mark we need to talk to you about something," Bob says.

"Oh alright. I'll meet you in class alright," Mark tells me with a soft expression.

"Okay," I nod walking into first period waiting for Mark.
I sit alone for a while until Mark comes in and plops down in the seat beside me. He let's out a breath and looks at me with soft eyes. I give him a closed smile as he leans his head on his hand.
"So what did you have to talk about," I ask.

"It was nothing," Mark shrugs it off.

"Well if I had to be out of the conversation then it isn't nothing."

"None of their girlfriends know either so calm down okay. It's just a surprise for you and the girls. Nothing too extravagant, but you all will like it."
I nod and the bell rings signaling that class has began.
***
It's 10:15 and I'm sitting on my bed with my laptop while eating my candy. As I go to check the time once more I look at the photo of Mark and I. Has to be my favorite picture at the moment.
Suddenly I hear a tap on my window. When I look at the glass I see my crazy ass boyfriend in front of it hanging onto the drain pipe. I rush over and open the window pulling him inside.
"Are you fucking crazy," I whisper yell.

"I wanted to have your last few hours of your birthday be great. So I have a movie, my shirt for you and myself for cuddles."

"How can I say no to that," I smile with a blush creeping onto my cheeks.

"Then let's pop this in and make you have a great night that isn't writing a paper."
I plop onto my bed grabbing my laptop and putting it on my lap. Mark hands me the movie and those me his flannel. I smile and slip my shirt off before putting it on. He takes off his jeans and snuggles up close to me as I get the movie setup. Once I have it playing softly Mark takes it and sets it on his lap. I curl up onto him wrapping my arm around his waist and laying my head on his chest. Mark's arm is wrapped around me pulling me even closer.This is what I wanted all along. Just these moments where we don't have to day anything or rely do anything. All we need is each other and the sound of our heart beats.
***
It's 11:47 when the movie ends and we stop our small make out sessions. Mark sighs and sits up which makes a frown appear on my face. He grabs his pants with a sigh facing the window. I sit up crawling behind him. My arms wrap around his waist as I rest my in the crook of his neck.
"Stay," I whisper softly into his ear.

"Jack I can't do that."

"Yes, you can. Our parents think that we're still friends and it won't be any different. Minus the fact that we'll be a lit closer to each other. Plus you could always just wake up early tomorrow. Please Mark........just stay."
Mark sighs and turns his head to look at me. His lips press softly to mine and he rests his forehead against mine.
"I guess I could make an exception for you baby boy."
With those words he drops his stuff and I pull him backunde the sheets. Mark wraps his muscular arms around me and I snuggle my head into his chest. His chin rests on my head and I can hear his heart beat stay in time with mine.
"Night baby boy," Mark whispers kissing my head.

"Night Marky, I love you," I say without even knowing that I said that until they left my lips.

"What," he whispers looking down at my now flushed face.

"I-I love you."
He squeezes me closer to him and kisses my lips with such passion. Our open mouth kisses move together perfectly. Mark breaks away from my lips and brings me close once more.
"I love you so much," he whispers back to me.
Those were the last words we spoke to each other till we fell fast asleep. With me in Mark's arms being the happiest I've ever been.

Alright so I'm very very happy with this chapter and I absolutely love the ending. Anyways happy reading!
