Erika' s POV
-
"GOODDDDDD MORNINGGGG JAKE PAULERS!" I hear from downstairs. I stretch my arms above my head and yawn, blinking the sleep out of my eyes. Jake and I have been dating 6 months today. I throw on my X hoodie (always plug), some jean shorts and throw my hair up. Jake always has exciting stuff planned for our important dates so I'm sure there's a surprise today. I walk down stairs to find the three Ohio idiots completely trashing the kitchen. There's at least a gallon of milk on the walls and floor, a drone that's been completely smashed by an unknown object, broken plates shattered on the counter, chairs thrown everywhere, and honestly any other messy thing they could find around the house somewhere in the once-spotless kitchen.
"What the hell are you guys doing?!" I say. I can feel my face turning red in anger.
"Oh! Hey, Erika!" Chance and Tony yelled in unison
"Hey, Babe!" Jake said, jumping off the counter
He runs to me and wraps both arms around my torso. I back out of the hug.
"This better be clean. I'm not picking up after you guys this time." I turn to go back upstairs to find T and finish getting ready.
"Hey T" I say walking in to Tessa's room.
"Hey B. Why were you yelling downstairs?"
"The guys were being idiots. They trashed the kitchen... AGAIN. But I guess I can't really stay mad at them today. It's Mine and Jake's 6 months and I think he has something planned."
"Ohhhh. Like What?" Tessa smirks
" I don't know yet, but I made absolutely no plans today so we could spend all day together."
Tessa and I talk a little bit more about life and then I decide to go chill in Jake's room and wait on him to finish cleaning and come upstairs. An hour goes by - no Jake. Two hours go by - no Jake. I decide to go downstairs and see what he's up to. Chance and Anthony are sitting on the couch . I look into the pitiful attempt at a clean kitchen. Jake's not in there.
"Guys, where's Jake?" I ask, kind of concerned at this point
"Oh Jake went to set about an hour and a half ago" Anthony replies
"Oh. Okay." I say walking into the kitchen to finish cleaning their mess.
The whole day goes by - still no Jake. I order Postmates, then after dinner I walk up to T's room.
When I open the door I see Tessa and Chance cuddling together, talking.
"Oh, hey E! How was your six months?" Tessa smiles. I try to keep my composure but suddenly a stream of tears rolls down my cheek. Quickly my steady crying turns to uncontrollable sobs. I don't remember Chance leaving but by the time I made it to Tessa's arms he was gone.
"Do you wanna talk about it?" she asks gently
I shake my head as sadness engulfs me. I fall asleep in T's arms which is not who I imagined ending my day with when I woke up this morning.
