Everybody needs somebody

Chapter 4.

Jakes POV

I woke up feeling very refreshed. I always felt better if I sleep on a couch, but the thing that is making it a good morning is that Jennifer is in my arms. The first day I saw her in the hallway picking up her things, I just thought she was absolutely beautiful. Jennifer must have been cold because she cuddled more into me. So I just wrapped my arms tighter around her. She fit just perfect in my arms.

"Five more minutes mom." Jennifer mumbled into my chest. I couldn't help it I chuckled a little. I must have woke her up because she rubbed her eyes, and looked at me.

"Good morning Jennifer." I said. She looked a little dazed, and gave a half smile and cuddled back into me. I didn't want to wake her up, so I just let her fall back to sleep. I was about to fall asleep again when she suddenly figured out where she was. She fall off the couch and just looked at me.

"What? Why are you here?" Jennifer asked just sitting on the floor looking like she is stoned.

"Well last night you just fell asleep and I was trying to get up, but you wouldn't let me leave. So I just decided to stay." I said pulling up the blanket because I was getting cold without Jennifer cuddled with me.

"Oh, wow that's embarrassing. I'm sorry I did that, I'm such a baby when I'm tired." She said getting up and sitting on my legs.

"Don't worry it was cute." I said without thinking. I'm so stupid why would I say that. I probably freaked her out. Before she could say anything her mom came down stairs saying breakfast was ready. I guess Jennifer was hungry because she jumped up, and headed up stairs pretty fast. I slowly got up and headed upstairs, when I heard Jennifer yell ''hurry up slow poke''

When I got into the kitchen no one but Jennifer was in here. Her back was face toward me, so I snuck up on her, and tickled her once again. She freaked out, and dropped to the floor covering her mouth. I just laughed my ass off. She was so easy to scare, plus I learned she hates being tickled.

"I hate you. You know that right." She said as she got back on her feet.

"No one can ever hate me. You know you love me." I grabbed her into a big bear hug. I started to twirl around sing "you love me" "you love me". All she could do was laugh at how silly I was being. I haven't been able to be my self around people for quite a long time. But Jennifer just gives me this natural feeling that I can just be myself, and I love that. I feel like I could just talk to her about everything and tell her all my secrets. I set her back down and we got plates and piled on chocolate chip pancakes on them. We sat in silence for a while, until her little sister came in.  

She kept going on and on about drama at her school, or with famous people, the latest movies. Geez this girl can talk. I wonder if Jennifer is like this when you get to know her. I wonder if she is loud, or if she is just naturally quite. I think I spoke to soon because Jennifer started to yell at Grace to shut up. Now they are just fighting and getting louder with each second.

Im surprised when I heard someone came down the stairs it was so loud in here. Their mom came in and yelled at them to shut up. They finally did. Thank gawd. Jennifers' mom finally noticed me, and asked a ton of questions again. I answer them all nicely, not showing that I'm annoyed with all these questions. Why do parents ask so many damn questions. Well that question will never be answered.

About ten minutes later Jennifers family left to go to Graces soccer game. Jennifer didn't feel like going so she stayed home. She said she didn't want to be alone today so she invited me to stay for the day, and of course I said yes. Maybe we will get to know each other a bit more.
