A Smile For A Penny (Under Revision)

Mistle Toe

Did I ever mention that I despise Christmas? Well, I do! I hate how everyone is so happy, and they kiss under a stupid leaf and just eck!

As I am putting up the wrenched leaf, someone comes up from behind me and wraps their arms around my lower abdomen. I tense up and crane my neck to see.

"Jake what are you doing?" I ask totally freaked out. He just does his classic Jake smile.

"Well, I was hoping to get another one of those kisses like from our trip." He says with a cheeky smile.

"And why would I give you another one?" I say in a flirtatious voice.

He points up and I see the leaf of Christmas kisses. How cliché.

"You know, that was just for show jake, I don't really go around kissing people." I said and he just looked at me like I was some weirdo.

"You know Izzy. I really like You, I have since we met in Derek's truck." I feel my heart pounding so fast it might explode.

"Jake, I um. I don't know what to say." By that I mean you're a great kisser but my pathetic heart belongs to someone else..

"Don't say anything." As he says this he leans down and try to kiss me.

"Jake no. I'm sorry, I just I cant." I push him back and walk up to my room. This day couldn't get any worse.

"Hey, you okay?" Fuck me! Why.

"Yeah Matthew, I'm okay." But what I want right now is to kiss you again.

"Well why didn't you say so?" He says smirking.

"Oh shit. I said that out loud." Fuck! I'm such an idiot.

"Yeah, you did. It's OK." Hey says making his way to where I am standing.

I gulp, totally nervous. He stands in front of me and leans in. I close my eyes. His lips melt with mine, it's pure bliss.

His lips move down to my neck and I can't choke back the moan that escapes my mouth.

"Well then, guess you two didn't get enough at the game hu?" I jump back about 5 feet.

"Oh uh, Derek. W..hat are you doing in here?" I say nervously.

"Oh you know, look for my best friend, who happens to be locking lips with my  sister." Why doesn't he sound mad?

"Yo bro, do you mind?" Matthew says totally chill.

"you better not hurt Izzy, or I will kick your ass personally." Derek threatens as he walks out of the door.

"What the fuck just happened?" I say confused as hell.

"Your big brother just gave me permission to do with you as I want."
His voice oozes with sarcasm but his eyes glint to my neck and a feeling of total dread washes over me.

"You didn't?" I shriek running to the bathroom. There it is. A dark red and slightly blue bruise on my neck.

I turn to him and almost fail to restrain myself as the urge to kill him rises.

"Chill Izzy it looks good on you." That's it. I lunge at him and we become a ball of him trying to escape and me trying to destroy...
He just smirks at me. Damn him and his good looks......
