Fate (L.H.)

Chapter 7

We needed up making waffles, and surprisingly didn't make a mess. And might I say, they were pretty fucking good waffles! We were now sitting on the couch cuddling and watching Scooby Doo, I love this show. I checked my phone to see I had a text from my parents telling me I had to be home before 12 We had to go my moms older friend who lived up the street from us and have a dinner type thing. I checked the time and it was currently 11:45, I guess making waffles and eating them took more time than I thought. I should probably tell Luke I have to go, ugh.

"Hey Luke." I said looking at him and he turned his head to look at me.

"Yes?" He said in a questioning tone.

"I have to get going because I have to be home by 12 to help my mom get shit ready for a dinner with her friend." I told him with a pout on my face.

"Aw, that's ok. I understand, and you can keep the clothes you have on." He told me as if he knew the question I was going to ask and chuckling at my pouty face.

"Thanks Luke, I'll give them back after I wash them." I told him standing up from my comfortable position I was in with Luke.

"That's fine." He told me standing up too. We both walked up to his room and I grabbed my nicely folded clothes that were by his door. We then walked back downstairs and I put my Vans back on, picked up my keys, clothes, and making sure I had my phone.

"Bye Jacquelyn, I'll text you later, don't miss me too much!" Luke told me giving me a hug and smirking.

"Ok and same for you Hemmings!" I replied hugging back and then letting go, he quickly pecked my cheek. I tried not to blush but I couldn't help it, I then turned around to open up the door. We waved goodbye to each other and I walked down the little pathway to the driveway and down to the curb where my car was parked. I quickly got in, turned on my car, and looked out the window to see Luke standing there. He smiled and waved again, I did the same and I was off.

My phone was connected through Bluetooth to my car so I had "Fuck" by Bring Me The Horizon playing, I was jamming along and singing horribly, might I add. After a few minutes I made it home and I pulled into the driveway. I turned off my car and got out making sure I had all of my stuff with me. The garage was open so I walked into it and went into my house to see my mom making mashed potatoes in a giant bowl and my dad pulling brownies out of the oven.

"Hey." I told them smiling slightly walking past them, putting my phone and clothes on the table that was to the left of the island type thing in the kitchen. I then hung up my keys on the little key hanger by my the fridge.

"How was it at Luke's?" My mom asked me looking up from the bowl of mashed potatoes with a smile on her face.

"It was really fun, we watched The Perks of Being a Wallflower, cuddled, and then in the morning we made waffles." I said going to the cabinet and pulling out a glass to fill up with milk.

"Sounds like a good time." My dad answered. He liked Luke, always has since we were younger. Once we had become better friends my dad got to know him more and trusted him. Him and my mom also got along great with Luke's parents too which was good.

"Yeah it was." I told him nodding my head and sipping on my milk.

"Do you guys need any help?" I asked them after a few minutes and putting my now empty glass of under the water, rinsing it out, and putting it in the dishwasher.

"Nope, we're good!" My mom said adding salt to the bowl.

"Ok, and what time do we need to leave?" I asked them, hoping it was at least later than one.

"1 o'clock." My dad answered taking out the brownies he had cut up into pieces and putting them on a plate.

"Ok thanks, I'm gonna go get ready." I replied grabbing my phone and clothes from the table and heading up to my room. I pressed on the home button on my phone and it said 12, so I had some time to shower and get ready.

I plugged my phone into its charger and put my dirty clothes into my hamper in my room. I then went into the bathroom, stripping out of the clothes Luke had let me sleep in. I turned on the shower waiting for it to get to the temperature I desired and got in. I washed my face, hair, and body. Then shaved what needed to be shaved. After I was done I got out, put my hair into one of those things you do with a towel on your head and dried my body. Once I did that I walked I to my room with my towel around my body. I walked into my closet and pulled out my grey NASA shirt, then walked out to my dresser and grabbed my A.E. shorts.

I dropped my towel and put on some baby lotion that was on my dresser, don't ask me why but I really like the smell of baby lotion, I don't know why, I just do. I put on some underwear and a bra then got dressed. I went into the bathroom and blow dried my hair deciding not to straighten it and put on my usual makeup.

Walking back into my room, my clock said 12:50. I would say that's about perfect timing. I grabbed some no show socks and my phone and headed downstairs. I pulled on my pair of black and white Vans, shoving my phone into my back pocket of my shorts and grabbing my keys. Just in case that I needed or wanted to come back earlier than my parents which was most likely to happen.

"What do you need me to carry?" I asked my parents who were dressed and picking up what they had made.

"Can you carry this other plate of brownies?" My dad asked. I nodded my head and were out of the front door and up the street going to my moms friends house. We made it there in about 2 minutes and she greeted us warmly at the door, welcoming us in, and telling us to put the food on her island in the kitchen.

We ate after some small talk and had some amazing chocolate cake, ice cream, and brownies for desert. Fuck my diet! After we finished eating and talking a little bit more, I asked if I could be excused and go home. After I got the ok, I headed off to my house, unlocking the front door I walked into the kitchen and took off my shoes.

I walked into the living room, sat on the couch, and grabbed my iPad that was charging on the back of the couch. I'm always sitting on the couch so having my iPad charger being me was convenient. I decided to go on twitter since I hadn't been on in a while. As I was scrolling through my timeline I noticed I was getting a lot of hate. I searched my name in the search bar and I saw pictures of my date with Luke. They all knew who I was and most of them liked me, but I guess not so much now. I didn't mean to make them mad at me. I shouldn't let the hate get to me but I know it will. I'm not good with these types of things, thats why used to cut, self-hate and everything was mainly why. Not feeling or being good enough and hating what I look like, sometimes even thinking about suicide, but I stopped for my friends, and I knew that I could never actually commit because of them, I would miss them too much. They all knew, but they didn't know it was as bad as it was, only Jerika knew and she would always help me when I got bad. She's part of the reason I'm over 300 days clean. But all of this hate is not making it easy on me right now, I hope I don't do anything stupid.
