A Change in Mind

Not-So-Lazy Sunday

A/N- sosososo sorry for the major time skip! I couldn't think of anything else. Enjoy, loves<3
Jake's P.O.V
I was living my wildest fantasy. I had Ella Woods all to myself. She loved me and I loved her. That was it. It was 12:00 on a Sunday afternoon, and I tapped Ella's shoulder.
"Whaaaaat?" she drawled, half asleep.
"Let's go do something." I suggested, begging like a five-year-old in a candy store.
"I don't wannaaaaaa." she whined, exhibiting the same childish characteristics as I was."
"Please, baby." I begged again.
"Whyyyyy?" she moaned, obviously tired.
"Because you're my babygirl and you're all mine and I wanna show you off because I love you more than anything else in the world." I explained, surprisingly in a single breath. I had her at babygirl and she cracked a smile.
"Ok. I need to get in the shower then. I'll be out in 10." She bounced out of the living room, her wild curls flowing behind her. I heard the door lock. There goes my chance, I thought to myself.
(Time skip)
Ella's P.O.V
I walked out of the bathroom wearing nothing but a towel, thinking nothing of it. I was just about to ask Jake if he needed the bathroom to shower, but I was interrupted.
"Daaaamn." he exclaimed.
"Wha?-oh." I blushed, realizing what had elicited his reaction. I attempted to cover myself further, but got nowhere. I noticed a tent growing in his sweatpants, but decided not to say anything.
"I was gonna ask if you needed to get in the shower." I explained. He licked his lips and continued to stare as I walked out of the room.
(5 minute time skip)
I threw on a white crop with some black leggings and sat down on the couch, waiting for Jake to get out of the shower. My phone buzzed, and I looked down to see a single message- My World😊❤️🌎🔒: I left the door unlocked for a reason😏😉👅💦
     I sighed and opened the door. What lay before made me sweat. Jake. Wearing nothing but a towel (and underwear but that's besides the point hehe) Before I could say anything, he grabbed my arm and pushed me against the door. His lips crashed on mine with the most passionate force known to this world and boy, did he rock mine. He continued to kiss me. His tongue begged for entrance, and finally, I let him in. Our tongues danced in perfect rhythm. I moaned against our kiss for him to stop before this got any further. He understood me immediately, and gave me a peck on the cheek before walking off.
      I finished getting dressed and wrapped a flannel around my waist and headed to the bathroom. By now, my hair was dry and I pulled out my straightener. I was about to start on my hair when Jake walked in.
"Whatcha doing babe?" he asked.
"I'm gonna straighten my hair, duh." I chuckled.
"No you're not." He answered.
"Why's that?" I laughed.
"Cause I'm gonna do it." he stated.
"Babeeeee, you're too nice. Let me do it." I pleaded.
"Nope." He picked up the straightener, which was already preheated. "I got this, babygirl." He knew it made me melt when he called me that. Why does he torture me so?
When Jake was finally finished with my hair, I started on my makeup. When I was done, I walked into the living room and Jake reacted immediately.
"Woah." I laughed at this. He acted as if he had never seen a girl before. "Just, wow." I was loving this attention. "You look good fresh out of the shower, but this? Woah." He looked like someone just told him he won a car or something. He was all mine. Score.
       "Well, then." I said, "We better get going. I grabbed my keys and strutted outside in my heels. He followed behind me, drooling all the way.
Jake's P.O.V
When we reached her car, I texted my mom letting her know where I would be. Ella and I decided on the outdoor mall just a few miles away.
I got into the car, and Ella put the keys in the ignition. I placed my hand on her thigh.
"I love you."
"I love you too, Jake. Forever and Always."
(time skip)
When we got to the mall, I got out of the car and walked to the other side. I opened the door.
"Her Royal Highness," I bowed as she chuckled. I grabbed her hand and intertwined it with mine as we walked down the sun-lit cobblestone pathway.
"Where to first?" She asked.
"I'm feeling ice cream." I replied.
"Ice cream it is, then."
         When we got to the register, she pulled her phone out and reached for her card. I quickly stopped her and reached to get my own. By the time I had gotten it out, Ella had already swiped and was on her way to a table outside.
         "Why did you do that?" I asked, clearly upset.
         "I can buy things with my own money, Jake." she answered, her voice staying barely above a whisper.
         "But it's my turn to show you how much I care." I said.
(Yet another time skip)
         When we finished eating, Ella went to the bathroom. We agreed to meet in front of the fountain. I walked into the jewelry store nearby. I was looking for the perfect ring, just because I love her. That's when I saw it. It caught my eye. I asked the saleswoman how much.
        "Two hundred." She stated flatly in her monotoned voice.
        "Done." I swiped my card, grabbed the ring, and hurried to the fountain with a huge smile on my face.
Ella's P.O.V
        He was already waiting for me when I got to our little meet-up spot. I eyed the bag in his hand. Kay. He grabbed both of my hands and held them there.
       "Ella. Babygirl. Princess. My whole world. I love so much and I just want to show you how much you mean to me. And when I can't do that, it makes me upset. My sole purpose in life is to make you happy. And if I can't do that, I feel like dying." He pulled out the ring and slipped it on my finger. It was absolutely gorgeous. Tears stung my eyes.
         "How much was it, Jake?" I asked, on the verge of crying tears of joy.
         "Doesn't matter, baby. You're worth it." He put his hand in mine as we walked back to the car.
         On the way home, he took one hand off the wheel and placed it on my thigh. His phone buzzed.
          "Can you get that, baby?" He asked.
          "Yeah, sure." I unlocked his phone and it was a message from his mom.
          "Your mom wants you home soon. It says that someone wants to see you." I heard him sigh, but decided not to question it.
