Only a fool would fall for you

Jesse's POV

I had a bag packed for just a couple days worth of clothes. I realized the more I was up moving around the sorer my upper torso was. That didn't stop me I thought. I can push past anything even a couple broken ribs. I knew that Emily's parents lived in a city over from where I was raised I didn't think she knew exactly where though. But I'm not planing on making a visit anytime soon. It was only a two hour drive to her hometown so I threw my bag in the back of my car. A little before 2 Emily pulled up into my driveway in her car.

"ready?" She said walking up.
"Where's your bag?" I asked.
"It's in my car, where's yours?" She asked trying to be bossy again.
She looked cute though in her little sun dress thing. I grinned.
"We're taking my jeep." I said not even listening to her protest about it.
She kept saying no your not driving but instead of arguing I proceeded to get her bag from her car and put it in mine.
It was too perfect of a day not to drive the jeep with the top down.
She kept arguing but I just nodded and shuffled her into the passenger seat.
She finally shut up as I tried to get into the car without my side touching or hitting the seat to hard.
"Are you ok?" She said In a softer tone touching my arm.
"Yeah" I lied.
I started my car and we hit the road.
Half of the way we jammed to old rap and hip hop like the backstreet boys, T-pain, Kelly Clarkson the classics. Then she studied the other half of the ride. I didn't mind the quiet I had a hard time keeping my eyes on the road as she had her legs up on my dashboard getting sun as she read her Med text book.

"You know, I wouldn't just let anyone put their legs up on my dashboard but this is an exception." I said jokingly.

She chuckled.
"Oh so I'm the only exception."
I nodded keeping my eyes on the road.
She laughed a little again "well I'm honored then".
We both laughed.
I turned off the highway onto a Main Street.
"We're almost there" she said looking at my phone GPS.
"I know." I sighed feeling tired.
"How's the ribs" she asked Turing to look at me.
"Just peachy" I said not wanting her to see that I'm hurt. I don't like having to be cared for Im pretty independent.
We pulled up to this Huge private road with a big gate. She told me the code and I put it in and it opened. She got excited and squealed.
"We're here!"
"Wow Emily, is this where you were raised?" I asked in awe. It was a huge house looked like a low key mansion with lots of beautiful landscaping and fountains. They even had a pool house for guests.
"Just pull up to where my dads cars are parked." So I did.
"Your dad drives a lot of nice cars huh?" I said.
Looking at the Range Rover, Mercedes Benz, and the red corvette.
"Yeah he likes cars." I got our bags and followed her up the steps to her house. A man opened the door for her and she asked if her parents were home.
"No miss Emily they are not at home right now but should be shortly."
"Is David here?" She asked him.
"No miss, he's not coming home this weekend." "Ok thanks!" She said walking in.

I walked in behind her but that man came to me. "Are you with miss Emily?"
"Yeah dude relax" I said putting our bags down.
Emily came over in between us.
"Steven, this is Jesse. We go to school together."
That Steven guy looked me all over and touched my bruised eye. I winced and stepped forward getting into his face. "What the hell man you got a problem with me?"
Emily stepped between us, the butler guy brushed off his suit.
"Mr. Weston would not approve of this outrageous behavior Miss Emily, nor your choice of dates, nor do I. Your family would not approve of this gang banger. You should leave."

"Thank you for the input Steven we will be going now, Jesse!" She called.
"Just leave the bags and follow me." She said in a hurried tone.
I followed her up the stairs to what looked like her brothers bedroom. There were pictures of classic cars and Yale posters on the wall.
"David goes to yale he's studying to be a lawyer." She said to me noticing me looking at his stuff.

"What are we doing in here?"
"Stevens right, my family wouldn't approve of you so we're going to pretend so they don't make you leave." She said going though David's closet.
I raised my eyebrows. "Are you joking me?"
"I know I'm sorry but my family is really snobby and uptight, I'm not trying to hurt your feelings but just do this for me it will make my life easier."
She handed me a black pollo collard shirt and his Khaki pants and a belt just put these on. "Let me know when your changed" she said walking out of the room.

I changed into his preppy clothes. They all fit me fine, except the arm holes were a little tight where my arm muscles were at. I walked into her room and saw her changing into a more formal dress. It made my heart race. She looked beautiful. I still couldn't believe we were doing this. That I'm with her at her house. Her family must think we're together. I laughed silently that's fine with me.

I stood in the doorway and then walked over to her bed and sat down slowly.
"Wow you look great". She said turning putting a necklace on. She walked away. "Just stay there for a second."

"Ok." I said lying back against her pillows letting out a shallow breath to keep from hurting my ribs.

She came out of the bathroom with some makeup stuff.
"What's that for?" I asked
She got on the bed and leaned over me.
"I'm covering up your eye."
I sat still as she touched around my eye with this creamy stuff.
"Done." She said getting off.

"Emily?" A unfamiliar voice called from downstairs.
"Dad!" She said pretending to be excited.
"Ready to meet the most judging people in the world?" She joked.
"Ready" I said.

We both went downstairs. Her parents were both talking to each other. Her dad looked like a typical business man. Wearing a nice suite, glasses. Nice watch. Silver hair.
Her mom looked less intimidating but still fancy. Emily hugged her dad and then mom.
"Who's this?" Her mom Asked.
"This is Jesse, one of my lab partners."
Her dad approached me and shook my hand.
"Nice to meet you young man". He said sternly.
"Are you all together?" Her mom asked bluntly.

Emily started to speak but I interrupted
"Yes mam just since yesterday" I said smiling at Emily.
She turned bright red and I grinned laughing to myself.
"Emily why didn't you tell me?" Her mother said.
"What is your major Jesse?" Her father asked.
"Surgery specialist, I said looking at her father.  "I haven't decided what to specialize in yet."
"Oh how Interesting." Her mother said looking at me.
Emily didn't say a word.
