"Oh h-hey d-daddy," I said as calmly as possible, obviously not good enough. My dad's eyes were fixed on Jake.
"H-hello Mr.Rodríguez," I tried to contain my laughter when I heard Jake stammer and with so much fear for his life.
"Its sir to you young man! What business have you got with my daughter!!" That was it I blurted out laughing. They both looked at me with confusion.
"Daddy h-he's here for a p-project from school," I stammered as I tried to gain my breath.
"Yes sir I was assigned a project with your daughter," said Jake while shaking due to my father glaring daggers at him.
"Well then you can work on your project in the living room where I can watch you guys," said my dad walking out of the living room.
Jake let out a sigh of relief while flopping onto the sofa. I just smiled at him."what?" He asked. I snapped out of my gaze and coughed to break the awkward tension.
"So what do you think of Charlie," I asked at normal as possible. He started blushing. Are you serious?! Jake Dawson blushed over a girl. What's Charlie got that I don't have?!
"Well she's really pretty a-and innocent and..-"
"Ok ok I get it," I said irritated.
"Well is she seeing anyone,"he asked a bit scared of what the answer might be. I could lie and use it to my advantage, but I could loose my best friend. Wait why should I care I don't like him.
"Err no she actually really likes you," I said looking at the floor to avoid his eyes, those beautiful eyes. He looked like a child who got the best Christmas present. Was he really that happy just because I told him that Charlie liked him. Just great.
"Well I guess we should start on this project if we ever want to finish it," I said breaking his happy thoughts.
"Oh eh sure yea..the project,"he said awkwardly.
2 hours later
"Well I better get going before my mom gets worried," he said while packing his things and putting on his jacket.
"Well kk see ya on Monday," I said. He started laughing.
"Just because I'm doing this project with you doesn't mean we're friends," he said while letting himself out of the house. I felt the same hatred towards him after that statement. Well then guess we'll see how tomorrow turns out.
Next day
I decided to look my best for school. I straightened my hair which I rarely ever do. My hair looked almost as good as Charlie's. It went as far as my waist. I finally felt proud of my self! I then applied eyeliner and mascara to make my eyes to look more feminine. I applied my cherry lip gloss and wore my uniform. I saw a different version of me in the mirror...a new me.
At school
As I walked into the school I couldn't believe what I saw. Charlie and Jake were talking and laughing. What was so entertaining that Jake Dawson was laughing. I hid my jealousy and walked over to them.
"Hey guys," I said.
"Well see ya later babe," said Jake will giving Charlie a peck on her lips.
"So I see you and Jake are together now," I said as happily as possible.
"Yea thanks to you! He asked me on a date and I think we might become official very soon," she said with her eyes beaming.
"Are you sure. Jake never goes on dates and has never even brought Brittany on one," I asked.
"Well he says I'm special," she said. Yea sure that's why.
"Hey guys! Omg Charlie I heard you got yourself a date with Jake," said Jasmine while running over to us.
"Hey Jasmine! Yea lucky me," said Charlie while smiling.
"So you guys aren't gonna ask me about my love life?" I asked feeling left out.
"Well there is nothing going on in your love life so why should we ask?" Said Charlie as if she noticed I wanted a bit of attention.
"We should go to Charlie's house after school and help her pick out something sexy for her date," beamed Jasmine.
"Sure I'll be there," I said before walking to class.
I sat down by myself. And soon a blonde haired muscular boy walked into the classroom, who's he?
"Well we have a new student, would you like to introduce yourself?" Asked the history teacher,
"Hey my name is Mark Jennings," he said while staring at me smiling.
"Well you can go take a seat beside Elena," said the teacher.
He walked towards me."hi! Elena right?"
"Yup that's me!" I said smiling up at him. I guess Jake was off limits but Mark sure did give me butterflies.
