Chapter 22

We arrive at his house at 11:30 pm. His parents are asleep so I go over to the couch. I feel Jack's hand touch my arm.

"Come upstairs with me," he whispers. I follow behind him to his room. My heart is beating fast for some reason. I don't know why, all i'm doing is sleeping with Jack. Nothing more than sleeping.

He flips the light on so we could see. His room has white walls, with a signed MLB poster on it. His bed is certainly big enough for us.

"Make yourself at home," Jack tells me. "Bathroom is right down the hall if you need to get any certain things," he winks. "Mom has some in there." My stomach ties up.

"Yeah alright," I reply. He pulls off his shirt & pants, so he's only wearing boxers. Oh my God.

It's going to be a long night.

He goes to the bathroom, so I quickly lie down & pretend to be asleep.

"Emma?" He asks when he comes back. I remain silent, so he thinks i'm asleep. "Damn."

I wake up the next morning with my head snuggling against Jack's chest. Jack smiles at me.

"Good morning beautiful," he says.

I get up, then he does as well.

"So uh, are you going to put some clothes on or..?" I ask, keeping my eyes away. I see him grin, though.

"Only if you help me." I start going to the door but he blocks me.

"Shirt only," I sigh. He frowns but accepts my deal. I poke his abs then I find a button shirt for him, & get that on. He gets his pants on.

"Alright so," I say.

"My folks aren't here," he says trying to look seductive. Mission accomplished. I walk over & kiss him.

"Thanks for letting me crash here for the night," I say.

"Feel free to do it anytime." I giggle.

"I better get home, if 1 of the girls come by asking for me my mom will know something's up."

"I'll drive you there." So he takes me back to the apartment. We say our farewells.

"Hey Mom," I say when I go inside.

"Hey Emma, how was the sleepover?"

"Fun," I hide my face, knowing I'm blushing.
