Friday

Lena's house

Alexa and Jacob are 9 yrs old

Playing outside together

Relationship: Friends

Alexa's Pov

Jacob- "Rose RoSe ROSE look what I found"

Yelled Jake running to me from the garden

where he once lay

Jacob- "It's a snail"

And sure enough there in his hands was the

slimmest little creature

"That's soo cool... put it there I'll find

another one so they can race"

Jacob's Pov

Daydreaming

*She's soo weird lol... But hey we can't

choose family*

"Hey Alexa"

Alexa- "Yeah"

"I love you" *Its not weird they're friend's*

As she threw her head back in laughter

before slightly tilting it to the side so that

her silk black hair wasnt off her shoulder

but just enough for it to reveal her rosy

pink cheeks... she had no idea how much I

meant it

Alexa- "I love you too" she said snapping me

out of my wonderful daydream

"Jayy... Lexi" called my mom from inside

"O ohh" we said in unison as we got up to go

inside

"You guys look filthy" said my Mom (Rene)

dusting me off

"Mom" I say shrinking away

"Lemme guess playing outside again" said

Lexi's mom (Lena) coming into view

Rene- "My gosh they're meant for each

other"

Lena- "Right just imagine them growing up

and falling in love"

"Whattt noooo way girls have cooties" I

shout out immediately

Rene- "Aww I can see it now Mr and

Mrs Alexa and Jacob Perez" she sang while

Alexa- *gagging noises*

Lena- "I remember it like it was

yesterday..." Lena started talking but we

have no idea what she said because I

grabbed Alexa's hand and we sneaked

upstairs away from them to my bedroom

On the roof of the house right outside

Jacob's bedroom window

Alexa's Pov

"Tonight looks so beautiful" said Jacob

staring at me

"Yeah it is"

After a period of comfortable silence and

laying on the roof watching the stars I

decided to break the silence

"Penny for your thoughts"

Jacob- "U kno what my mom and your mom

were talking about?"

"Yeah"

Jacob- "They're not entirely wrong..."

"Wanna make a bet... If we're older and

we're still friends and we're both single

then I'll think about it"

Jacob- "I'm all in as long as I get you in the

end" he said smiling

*It starts drizzling slighty... they get up and

go through the window into Jacob's bedroom

climbed onto the bed and went straight

asleep*

*

It'll get better soon :)
