Jayleigh Whitmore has been Invisible all the way through school. In one day that all changes when she comforts Ellie Hart, the most popular girl in school. Jayleigh is walking her dog Bella in the dog park when she meet Oscar and his adorable owner...
I grab my school bag and my pjs and get back to Junior's by ten to six. Junior is yelling as I walk through the front door.
"Tom get back here and do your homework"
"Make me!" Tom runs passed me and out onto the front lawn. I turn around and follow him. He sits down on the curb and I sit next to him.
"Tom what's up?"
"Oh, hi Jay. Junior was stressing out about you coming and he wouldn't help me with my homework."
We sit in silence for a while.
"How about we go back inside and I give you some help"
"But Junior..."
"Junior isn't angry he is probably just a little stressed. I'll take care of him."
We walk through the front door and into the kitchen where Junior is working on his music composition. It is so, so, so hot that he writes music. He hears us coming.
"I don't want to argue any more Tom. Just do your homework," Junior turns and sees me. "Oh Jay I was uh..."
"Don't worry, Tom is gonna do his homework now."
Tom goes and sits at the bench where his books are. Junior stands and comes over to me.
"I'm sorry you heard that Jay, but I wanted tonight to be about us."
"Aw you are so sweet. But give Tom a break"
Tom turns around to look at us.
"So Jay what's for dinner?"
"Ok let's have a look" I say moving to the fridge.
I make fancy toasted sandwiches for dinner with leftover chicken and some camembert cheese. Tom finishes his homework and lies on the lounge watching The Simpsons while Junior and finish our homework. Tom goes to bed at eight and Junior and I stay on the lounge. Being a Thursday night we watch Once Upon a Time and Agents of Shield. I put down my biology textbook and lay back into Junior's arms. As I lay there one of his hands rest on my stomach while the other draws circles on my palm. The phone rings and the circles stop. Junior gets up to answer it. It is Dianna telling us she won't be home until after midnight. I ring my dad and he says that I should spend the night at Junior's. He then asks to speak at Junior. Get ready for it the 'dad' talk. At least Junior is used to them now. It isn't the first time I have spent the night. Junior replies with 'yes', 'uh huh', 'no sir'. Junior hangs up the phone, turns off the TV, packs up our books, puts both my bag and his on his shoulders and grabs my hand leading me up to his bedroom.
I put on my pjs and come back to his room. Junior's shirtless body lies on his bed with such ease. I crawl my way into his bed. Junior rolls over on top of me and begins unbuttoning my shirt while kissing my neck. Why do I bother putting clothes on? Junior moves lower kissing my chest, then my belly button. He takes off my shorts. Thank God I had that bikini wax. His lips join mine as we roll over. I run my hands down his chest and into his boxers. The next time our lips join makes me feel like I could explode. My eyes flutter open and I pull away suddenly noticing what is next to his head. I push myself off him, roll back onto my side of the bed and pull the sheet up around my neck.
"Jay what is it?"
"Were you hoping on getting lucky tonight?"
Junior sits up and sees the packaged condom beside his head.
"Oh this," I don't comment so he goes on, "It is only for when your ready."
"But we haven't even spoken about it Junior"
"I was just being prepared..." it doesn't take him long to realise that was the wrong thing to say, "I didn't mean it like that Jay. I swear."
Before I get a chance to speak my phone rings. I reach to the bottom of the bed and answer it.
"Hello?"
"Jay its Ellie. You'll never believe what I just found"
"What?"
"I found a packet of twenty – four condoms in the bottom of Chad's school bag." What a coincedence.
"Really funny you should mention condoms," Junior hops off the bed and walks out into the hall. "I'm spending the night at Junior's and I just found a condom on his bed"
"Jay I'm not ready!" Ellie says and I can here Chad apologising in the background.
"You know what the scary thing is Elle? I think I am."
The two of us decide we'll give the boys a chance to explain and hang up. When Junior walks back into the room I'm curled up in a ball. He gets on the bed kisses my neck and strokes my back.
"I'm sorry. I've just been thinking lately. I love you Jay and I can wait for you but just know that I'm ready when you are."
"What did you say?"
"I'm ready when you are"
"No before that"
"I love you," he says for the second time and the two of us lay in silence for a moment.
"I love you too, Junior." I say as I curl up under his arm.
