I stood, looking at my boyfriend with my mouth agape and in shock. "Jake..." I whispered, "what the hell are you doing!!" His face crumpled in front of me and he let out a quiet sob, "I'm so sorry Eden." He ran into my arms and tackled me onto my small single bed. "I'm sorry," he mumbled kissing my forehead, "I'm sorry," he kissed my left cheek, "I'm sorry," he kissed my right cheek. Finally he looked into my eyes with his deep emerald eyes and whispered, "I'm sorry," pecking me on the lips.
I blushed slightly, rolling onto my side so he could lie beside me. "W...what for?" I questioned him.
The dark headed boy shrugged and pressed his lips together, "I dunno, for rushing off that night, for shouting at you, for avoiding you and for being a dick about a stupid kiss." He removed his arm from around my waist and sat on the edge of my bed, "I...I don't expect you to forgive me of course but p...please don't break up with me!" his voice wobbled.
I slipped my arms around his waist and rest my head on his broad muscular shoulder, "you're forgiven," I whispered in his ear.

He jumped up in shock, a huge smile plastered across his cute face. Jake picked me up and whirled me round the room, "you're the best girlfriend everrrrr!!" We laughed and laughed until we both collapsed on my bed and let out a sigh of exhaustion. Jake placed a sweet kiss on my lips and gave me a big genuine smile, he then kissed me again, more passionately this time, putting his hand behind my neck and pulling me closer.
"Jake..." I mumbled nervously, interrupting our intimate session.
"Who was the g...girl?"
With confusion wrote all over his face Jake questioned me, "what girl?"
"Well... Charlotte told Luke that she saw you leaving campus with a..another girl today..." I whimpered. Jake furrowed his eyebrows and bit his lips in concern, "t...that was Samantha, a friend in the year below." I nodded in suspicion and hung my head low so he couldn't see the hurt written all over my face.
Jake let out a loud groan, "I wasn't supposed to tell you until tomorrow but if you must know then... she was helping me set up a surprise for you." I gasped in shock at his kind gesture.
"Just me and you. We're going to this pretty little fairground by the sea that my mum used to take me to and it's beautiful! I mean of course you don't have to come but it's only an hour away and..."
I interrupted his babbling and slammed my lips against his.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!!"

We lay next to each other in my little single bed about an hour later, as I drifted in and out of sleep. "Jake," I whispered, "no-ones ever done anything like this for me. Thank you, really!" I breathed in his familiar scent and rested my head against his hard chest. He kissed my forehead gently and answered, "It's only because I love you..."
Shocked at the word he used, I lay in silence with my mouth agape. He used the L word.
The big L O V E.
It had been so long since I'd heard that word.
Since someone had said it to me, and I'd truly believed it.

"I...I'm sorry Eden, if you can't say it back I understand but..." I laced my hand in his and gave it a gentle squeeze, "I love you too," I whispered.
A comfortable silence settled over the both of us, "but you paused..." Jake finally said. "You had to think about it!" I shook my head in denial, "fine say it again then!" Jake smirked and whispered to me, "I love..."
"I LOVE YOU!" I shouted, pouncing on top of him and showering him with kisses. Jake rolled his emerald eyes and grinned at me, 'God do I love this girl!' he whispered.

"I mean there's this one," I exclaimed, holding up a tight royal blue dress, "my mum says it brings out my eyes!" Eva rolled her eyes at me and smiled, "yes but your mum probably said that when you were going to a posh restaurant not a fairground and a beach!" I pouted at her and frowned as she pushed me out the way and rummaged through my wardrobe calling, "no, no, no, absolutely not, oooh sexy but no, for heavens sake Eden have you got nothing suitable for a casual date?" I shrugged at her, "well this is my first one since joined Ashford boarding school!" She let out a huge sigh and marched over to her pink wardrobe, rummaging through it aggressively.
"How about this? We're the same size aren't we?" Eva questioned holding up a pretty baby pink dress. It had a strapless top with tiny violet sparkly gems scattered over the padded breast section. There was a net see-through waist band which went into a baby pink cotton skater skirt. I stripped on the spot into my bra and pants and just as Eva was about to hand me the dress, the door swung open and a startled looking Luke stood at the door way.
"Well well... here's something you don't see everyday!" the tall blonde boy exclaimed wriggling his eyebrows. "Lukeee!" myself and Eva both yelled at him.
He shook his head and grinned, "just looking for Jake that's all... don't worry, nothing I haven't seen before!" and with that he strolled off, shutting the door behind him.
I grabbed the dress off the surprised looking Eva, quickly slipped it on and looked up to meet her gaze. Her mouth was slightly agape and she had her hands firmly pressed into her hips. "Go on then... spill. When, where and why has Luke seen you like this before!"
I mumbled underneath my breath, "year seven trip..."
"PARDON I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!" Eva shouted at me, cupping her hands around her ear.
"The year seven trip," I stated, busying myself in straightened out my dress. "You slept with him didn't you!!" Eva remarked, smirking at me. I frowned and quickly replied, "no... I'd never do that... in a tent!" She cleared her throat and let out a laugh, "fine what about Jake then?" Confused, I replied, "no... I haven't slept with him in a tent either! I haven't slept with anyone in a tent Eva!"
"Nooo silly, have you and Jake... you know... I don't care where!" she spoke. Blushing I replied, "that's none of your business nosey girl!" Eva let out a loud scream next to me and yelled, "OMGGG!!! I'm so proud of you girlll, wait please tell me it was not on my bed!" I let out a laugh, "no, no it wasn't, now c'mon, help me sort out my hair and make up!"
