Dating A Demon (Tom x Reader (Star vs. The forces of Evil))

Chapter 7

The time had finally arrived; I couldn't be more terrified then I was at this moment.

Jake had told me he'd come pick me up around 6:40 so we'd have time to get there.

I glance down at my phone to see that the time is 6:39. He'd be here soon.

My stomach rolls with waves of butterflies as my nerves only increase. What if I embarrassed myself? What if they just make me the joke guest? What if something goes wrong? What if-

A steady knock on the door brings me to my senses and I take a deep breath before standing and walking to the door.

"HAVE FUUUUNNNNNN!" Calls Star from the kitchen.

I just roll my eyes and smile slightly before opening the door all the way.

There, standing with a perfect posture in a button up white shirt, which has the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and tucked in at his waist under a pair of black slacks, stood Jake. The moonlight trickles through his hair and illuminates one of his striking blue eyes, while giving that side of his face a pale glow. He smiles charmingly and glances down over me very slowly, taking in my simple grey convers, then my bare legs, all the way up to the simple dark yet vibrant blue dress that starts just above my knees. The fabric of the skirt is loose and slightly flowy until it reaches my waist, where it's more fitted. Because of its spaghetti straps, I also wear a grey cardigan over it.

Jake runs his fingers over the cardigan, then slowly takes it off. I arch an eyebrow and stop him by tugging it back on. "What...are you doing?"

He just shrugs, then takes it off again; I let him this time. "Parties are usually hot. You'll probably take it off there, then possibly lose it." He says and sets it on the table by the door.

I glance back to see Star and Marco watching us from the kitchen. Star couldn't be more excited and stands there basically drooling, while Marco looks at me worriedly. He mouths the words "don't go", and apparently Jake notices, cause he starts to chuckle. He turns to me and offers an arm, so I take it while giving Marco an "I am going whether you want me too or not" look.

"Byiiieeeee!" Star calls, and I wave goodbye to her before closing the door behind us.

Now, outside and without the cardigan, I began to shiver slightly and found myself leaning against Jake for warmth. He always felt so warm, as if inside him he carried his own furnace or something.

"A little cold now, are we?" He says with a chuckle. "Jeez, your shivering is making me vibrate." He says before moving his arm out from mine and drapes it behind me. His warm hand gently brushes along my arm.

I sigh gratefully, then glance up at him. "Well, you're the one who said it'd be hot. You must have forgotten about the part where we have to walk."

"Actually, I did think about that." He says with a small smirk.

"Ah, how dare you." I say a bit humorously, but inside I was slightly mad at myself for falling for it, and I couldn't help but be a little mad that he had tricked me. The rest of the walk goes by smoothly with a few humorous remarks here and there.

Andrea's house was a two story CASTLE.

Just kidding.

Though her house was bigger than mine, it really didn't look much different. It had a nice red door and a better lawn, though right now there were red solo cups lying around, and one couple of teenagers making out behind the huge pine tree.

Jake slides his arm from my back, which leaves a tingling sensation as the cold air finds it's way to my skin again. His firm hand slides into mine as he leads me to the doorstep. I literally felt like he was dragging me, while my turning nerves were pulling me the other way.
