My Helpless Romance (Editing)

09

Autumn

I wake up to Jacob next to me. He was up and scrolling through instagram. 

"Jacob?" I ask. 

"Morning beautiful." He smiles. I look at him confused. 

"Beautiful? Loren is your girlfriend. Are you sure you know who you are talking to?" I ask. 

 "Loren and I broke up." He says looking at me with a weird expression. 

"When?" "Yesterday. When you were in the hospital." 

"Oh. I'm sorry. I most have forgotten." I sigh. 

"Hey. It's fine." He says when he notices my sad expression. 

"No. It's not." I sigh. He pulls me into a hug. 

"How are you feeling?" He asks me. 

"Ehh. I'm light headed and dizzy. And I feel like I'm going to throw up." I sigh. 

"Aww." He sighs kissing my forehead. I sigh and stand up. 

"Where you going?" He asks. 

"Shh. I think my mom is home." I say running down the stairs. My mom was sitting on the couch. 

"Hey mom." I say nervously. 

"Hey. So who's your little friend?" She laughs. 

"Oh. That's Jacob. I'm sorry. I wanted him to stay with me last night." I say. 

"It's fine. He has to leave tonight though. Your father and I are going to go to an art exhibit and we don't want anyone over." She smiles. 

"Mom. Please let him stay. I don't trust myself alone." I sigh. 

"Okay. But don't do anything inappropriate." She winks. 

"EWW!" I laugh running upstairs. 

"Hey you can stay until my parents get back from an art exhibit." I smile. 

"Okay. Let me call my mom." He smiles. After about 2 minutes he comes back in. 

"We're all good." He smiles jumping on my bed. I smile and sit next to him. 

"What do you want to do?" He asks. I shrug. 

"We could go to the zoo. Or the park. Or the movies." He smiles. 

"Zoo sounds good." I smile. 

"Get dressed." He smiles. I nod as he rushes to my closet. I give him a confused look. 

"Let me pick out your outfit." He smiles. I laugh and let him. He picks out a short sleeve crop top and jeans. 

"The cuts. They will show." I sigh. He frowns and grabs a grey sweater. 

"Better." I smile kissing his cheek. I go to the bathroom to change. When I finish he walks in. 

"You're short." He laughs. 

"Shut up." I say punching him lightly. 

"It's cute." He laughs. I stand on my tip toes and kiss him quickly. 

"Shortie." He laughs. I giggle. 

"How should I do my hair?" I ask. He smiles evilly and starts messing with my hair. 

"Jacob." I laugh. He somehow ends up making my look good. It was all curly and down with a small piece from the front pinned in the back with a little butterfly clip. 

"Thank you." I laugh. 

"Hey can I vlog?" He asks. I nod. He grabs my hand and drags me down stairs. 

"Bye mom." I laugh as he runs me to his house. 

"Hey Jac.... Girl?" His mom says. 

"Best friend." He smiles. I mean it wasn't a lie. I am still his best friend. Just his best friend. Nothing serious. I guess. But are we going to be a thing? Ever?
