cidney's pov

my body shivered under the cold sheets. i had been tossing and turning for fifteen minutes trying to get to sleep.

as i lay in my bed i could hear the water from the shower running. the door was cracked the slightest bit and the light was on.

the patio door next to my bed was opened all the way.

knowing i wouldn't be able to sleep, i pulled myself out if bed and stepped out onto the patio. i rested my elbows onto the ledge soaking in the quiet.

the silence of outside was almost painful.

i jumped at warm lips pressing on my neck.

felt those lips tell me 21 lies.

jack's chin rested on my shoulder, "why are you up?"

"i can't sleep."

my body shifted to face him. he held a straight face.

before jack said anything else his lips crashed with mine.

not in lust or passion but want. i wanted too.

jack carried me back to the bed not breaking the kiss.

he laid me down gently. his lips released from mine and he just laid next to me.

what?

"what was that?" i sat up looking confused.

jack rolled over turning away from me.

with a sigh i laid back onto my pillow and covered up.

i turned away from him too. when jack realized this he rolled back over and tossed his arm over my side.

now his hand was feeling the material of my oversized shirt.

slowly i felt his hands travel towards the end of the shirt which stopped barely below my knee.

jack's fingers curled under the hem and lifted it little by little. he let the shirt go just to my hip.

tired of his teasing i sat up to pull the shirt over my head.

with a huff i laid back down.

i heard jack's faint chuckle at my actions.

"i love playing with you." jack rested his hand back on my hip.

i faced his smirking face with frown in mine. "i hate that."

he just continued to smirk at my frustration. he shook his head and laughed before rolling me over.

"go to sleep."

X. X. X.

noon had just rolled in and i held my phone in my hand snapping selfies on snapchat. some with smiles, a straight face, and a few silly.
