Ella's POV —later that night—
After I've taken all my
Makeup off and put a robe on I sit down at my vanity and go on twitter via my laptop. Bad mistake. There's thousands of tweets talking about what happened tonight. Great. Just what I need. My mom and I talked and cried and I gusss it was nice. I haven't heard from jack. I'm not surprised. He's probably embarrassed as hell and busy as hell also. It's 12:30. Everyone in my house is asleep and I'm wide awake. I close my laptop and get up.
Just then there's a knock on the front door. I throw some socks on and grab my phone and walk downstairs to the door. I unlock and open it and am stunned by what I see. Jack is standing there with roses, chocolate, ice cream and a bunch of candy. In sweats and a tee shirt. But he's still wearing his crown
"What are you doin here?" I ask with a soft laugh
"Figured you could use some company." He says and I laugh.
"What about the crown?" I ask motioning to his head.
"Oh yea. I figured I should give it to you since it would probably get broken or lost if it was with me." He says and I smile
"You figure a lot of things don't you?" I ask and he nods. I laugh and step aside and let him in. My parents room is downstairs so I lead him upstairs to my room. He sets everything on my bed and I close the door. I then go and sit on my bed and he sits next to me.
"Why did you really come?" I ask
"Because. I didn't know if you would hurt yourself so I wanted to check up on you but I brought food and stuff." He says with a smile. I laugh
"What she said brought back memories but I was little so they were really vague." I say and he nods.
"So, your adopted?" He asks and I nod.
"Yea. At 2 years old I was put up for adopting and my mom and dad adopted me." I say referring to the one I live with.
"What happened to your birth parents?" He asks. I lay on my back facing up.
"They uh, wen to jail. Turns out they killed that kid they had before me. I could've been next if someone hadn't done anything." I say and he nods.
"So why didn't you act scared when I hugged you and danced with you and crap?" He asks
"I don't know. I'm fine that way, it's sexually I get scared. I feel like I'm being taken advantage of." I say and he nods.
"That sucks." He says and it's now my turn to nod.
"Yea. I'm not sure if I'm gonna finish out the year tho. I already talked to my mom and she's fine if I do online." I say. He turns to me
"Just because some jealous bitch said something that hit home doesn't mean you should elect her know. You have to walk in to school, head held high, and not give two shits." He says and I laugh
"I don't know." I say
"Please Ella. Your smart and if you wanna get into Harvard you have to do this. Please. For me." He says and I just study him.
"You'll miss you graduation Ella. You'll miss the after parties that are always lit. Like always." He says and I laugh
"I'll stay in town for how ever long you need me to." He says
"Your not doing that." I say and he laughs
"Ok maybe not for a long time but we'll still be here for a few days. We moved meetings to Omaha so we'll stay here for those." He says and I nod.
"So how about a movie?" He asks and I nod. I grab my remote and turn my tv on and go to Netflix.
"What should we watch?" I ask and we then continue to debate on movies and argue about which ones are the best.
