I walked into Science the next morning, we had a double class which I  was severely not looking forward to. I walked in a Jack smirked at me with that stupid smirk he constantly wore. I ignored him taking my seat next to him looking straight at the board “Morning” he said from  beside me. I ignored him. "Oh so you’re going to ignore me now because I made you admit something you didn’t want to admit" He smirked.

"I’m ignoring you" I said continuing to look at the board. “Well you’re talking me to right now so that doesn’t seem to be going to well for you now does it?” He said chucking to himself. "Just shut up" I snapped back at him. “Now class I’m going to give you this lesson free to discuss your project with your partner” Mr Harris said from the top of the room. I groaned to myself. "Guess your stuck with me for 120 minutes Sparky" Jack leaned in whispering in my ear. I rolled my eyes turning to face him. “Let’s just get this over with” I said opening my notebook.

"So why did you run out on me last night?" Jack asked ignoring my statement. “I just had to go my mom wanted me home” I said shrugging. "I think we both know that’s a lie" Jack said raising his eyebrow. “No it’s not and why would you care anyways?" I asked glaring at him.

He chuckled to himself “Just admit it, I make you feel nervous” He said as he slid his hand up my thigh. I quickly slapped it away. "I think nauseous would be  more accurate word" I said in a disgusted tone. "You’re ridiculously stubborn you know that" He said shaking his head."I know you’re not probably used to girls saying no to you but you’re just going to have to get used to hearing it from me" I replied to him.

"You’re a tough one to crack but I’ll get there" He said leaning back in his chair. I ignored his comment, changing the subject back to our project. “See you after school” Jack whispered in my ear as we walked out of class, sending a shiver down my back and not the good kind.

After school I waited for Jack to show his face but I couldn’t see him. I looked around and found him once again playing tonsil tennis with another girl. I wasn’t in the mood for manners today so I walked straight up to him dragging him away not letting him finish. "Do you ever take a break?" I asked him in annoyance. “Do you?” He asked raising an eyebrow at me. “What is that suppose to me?" I asked stopping walking and placing my hands on my hips. “It means you’re a bit of a buzzkill” He said smiling smugly at me. “Just because I care about other things other than sex doesn’t make a buzzkill" I said back to him. "So you admit you do think about sex?" He said grinning at me. "What? Ugh just shut up please" I said starting to walk again. "We’re going to my house today, no arguments" I demanded. “Feisty, I like it” he said following me.

I didn’t have a car so we had to go in Jack’s car to my house. We didn’t say much I would just tell him where to turn every now and then. We finally arrived at my house. My house wasn’t small but it was nowhere near as big as Jack’s was. "Well are you going to get out?" Jack asked me. I hadn’t realised I had been sitting there a few minutes staring into space. "Yeah let’s go" I said opening the car door and getting out.

I walked ahead as Jack strolled behind with his hands in his pockets. I was hoping that my parents wouldn’t be home yet but knowing my luck they would be. I walked into the kitchen and there was my mom making dinner. “Hi honey-“ She began but stopped when she realised Jack standing there. ”Oh god I’m sorry I didn’t see you there” She said briskly walking over to shake Jack’s hand. Why does she always have to embarrass me like this? “It’s nice to meet you Mrs.” he said shaking her hand with a genuine smile on his face that I’ve never seen before.

I stood there in shock, did Jack have some identical twin I didn’t know about. Jack Gilinsky the school bad boy was discussing recipes with my mom in the middle of my kitchen. I was still in shock when he finally stopped talking to her and we walked upstairs. “I can’t believe it..” I began. "What?" He asked frowning in confusion. “I never knew how much of a kiss ass you are” I said bursting out laughing at him. “Shut up..I’m just good with parents” He said a little embarrassed. "Whatever you say.." I said opening my textbook. “Okay we have to present this in 5 weeks so we have to properly get started” I told him. "Yeah you can do that, I’ll just sit here and watch" He said putting his hands behind his head and leaning back. “Not funny, get up and help” I said pulling him forward by his shirt.

He sighed, “what do you want me to do”. “Use your brain for once, I know it’s hard for you but try” I suggested. he chucked to himself "You really hate me don’t you?" He said."No..I don’t hate you, I just don’t agree with your..lifestyle choices is probably the best way to put it" I replied. "You mean the amount of girls I’ve been with?" he said smirking and I nodded in agreement.

"That’s just the way I like to do things, and it would take a really amazing girl to change my mind" He said beginning to write. "I think it would take a miracle for that to happen" I said quietly. Suddenly there was knock on the door and my mom walked in "Jack would you like to stay for dinner?" She asked him. “No-“ I began but was cut off by Jack. “I would love to, thank you” He said before turning and smiling smugly at me.

"Why?" was all I said to him. “Why not?” He said smirking at me. I rolled my eyes as I walked down to the kitchen. My dad wasn’t home from work yet so there was just Jack, my mom, my older sister Lexi and I at the table. I sat down and Jack sat next to me. "So Jack where do you live?" My mom asked and I knew this was my cue to zone out. I was only brought back to reality by a hand moving up my thigh. I gasped loudly pushing his hand away. "Everything alright?"My mom said looking at me in confusion. "Yup yeah perfect" I said recomposing myself. Jack laughed to himself looking down.

After we finishing eating Jack spoke. “Thank you so much for having me but I have to get going” Jack said. “No problem anytime Jack” My mom said. I walked him to the door, pushing him outside. "That wasn’t funny" I said as he stumbled to get his balance. “I thought it was funny” He said chuckling. "You’re an asshole" I said shaking my head. "I know you don’t really mean that" he said. I just ignored him, standing there awkwardly. Jack came close to my face, intertwining our fingers.

“I make you nervous don’t I?” He said in relation to my unsteady breathing. "No.." I said lying. he smirked before leaning in. He stopped when he was millimetres away from my lips. "Night Sparky" He said smirking before walking away. As we walked away, I caught my breathe, shaking over the tension built up inside of me.

I walked back into my house, completely flustered. “Can I talk to you for a second?” My sister Lexi said pulling me to the side. "Look I know you probably think Jack is a good guy the way he acts around Mom but he’s a player so just stay away okay?" she said. "I know he is..we’re just doing a project together" I shrugged. "Well just make sure he doesn’t make you his project" She said before walking away.
