Always Together (Jerika)

The Bigger Step

Jake POV:
I had such a good time with Erika on our very first date. Even after the date we talked all night in my room, we fell asleep together, we didn't know that until the next morning.

Tessa POV:
"Hey there you guys...long night?" I grinned

Chance POV:
I giggled "lots of talking I'm sure, too much fun?"

Erika POV:
When I realized I was sleeping in Jake's bed and heard Tessa, I instantly sat up. "Yeah it was a long night but it's not what you think, we just stayed up all night talking" I looked over at Jake who was sound asleep. He looked adorable

Chance POV:
"Yeah right, and Tessa and I definitely didn't make out at her birthday party" I laughed awkwardly

Tessa POV:
"Chance!" I smacked his arm

Erika POV:
"Okay then..." I got up and went to the bathroom and fixed my hair and whatnot, then I woke Jake up. I was so giggly and happy. Last night wasn't a dream, it was completely real. "Jake!!!! Wake up!" I laughed as I wrestled around with him.

Jake POV:
"Erika? You're still here?" I look at her "and you still look super hot" I didn't realize what I said until it came out of my mouth. Erika bit her lip and then came on top of me. She lifted my shirt and began touching my bare chest.

Erika POV:
"Yeah, hope that's okay" I said mischievously. His abs felt so good against hands, never realized how good of shape he was in, even though I knew he was athletic. I began to kiss his chest and worked my way up to his lips. "I had a really good time last night"

Jake POV:
Erika was past her comfort zone, and she seemed okay. She liked what she was doing, and I liked what she was doing. "I'm glad, it was a great night with a great girl". I rolled her over to the side of the bed "but now it's time to work! At least we get to work together more". I smiled and kissed her cheek. I took my shirt and pants off to change into something else, she couldn't help but stare. And I really liked that she was checking me out. I put on a tank top and jean shorts. I wanted to look decent for her.

Erika POV:
Jake and I walked downstairs to start the day. We couldn't keep our eyes off each other. Before work I decided to go in our pool while I could, before it became a lagoon again. I got into my bikini and swam a few laps until Jake jumped in. I splashed him for scaring the shit out of me but the. He kissed me. He said that everyone was getting lunch and that I should come, so I did. Jake and I sat in the front of the car as he drove all of us in the Team 10 van. Jake had his hand on my leg the entire time, I love when he does that.

Anthony POV:
"Just kiss already! Geez!" I made sure to embarrass them, because it's still the beginning of the relationship, and that's the best time to do it. They were definitely having a good time, and I was really happy for Jake, and even Chance because there is definitely something going on with him and Tessa. I should really find that out for myself.

Jake POV:
When the car came to a complete stop I leaned over and gently kissed Erika. Fireworks were everywhere, there is always sparks with Erika. That's because she is definitely the one for me, the girl I see myself having a future with. And one day, I'm going to marry her. "I love you, Erika" I blushed.

Everyone teased

Erika POV:
"I love you too, Jake. I always have." I put my arm on his leg, because I think he enjoys it just as much as I do.
