"Well just for that, I'll show you abuse." He says and before I could react, he punches me. Hard. I was pissed. Even though I haven't had ALL my training. I figured I should at least try SOMETHING. Before he could hit again, I pull my fist back and...
Jake and I️ told Zeke about our news and he couldn't seem happier. He congratulated us both and told us he knew it would happen soon.
It was now Friday and Jake, Zeke and I️ were all at the diner that we had met Zeke at. We all ordered hamburgers and fries and talked more about graduation. One week away now. I️ could feel anxiety coming on. I️ took deep breaths and tried relaxing.
Jake, Zeke and I all finish our meals and head out and all go home. Jake's Mom wanted him home tonight and Zeke wasn't allowed to have anyone over so I️ stayed at home alone with Boe.
While I️ was at home, all I️ could think about was graduation and the fact that I'm finally with Jake. I've always loved Jake. Always. Even though he broke my heart, I️ still love him. Graduation is less than a week away and I️ feel my nerves start to kick in. What if I️ don't get accepted into IU? What if I️ fall on my face walking up there? What if Jake and I fall apart? What if I️ never see Zeke or Jake or Amanda even? What about Boe? Where will he go? With me?
Questions keep rolling in my mind, unanswered. I️ lay awake most of the night even though I should be asleep since tomorrow is Tuesday. I️ roll over and force myself to sleep. I'm pretty sure it was about 2am by time sleep fully took over.
I️ was awoken Tuesday morning by an obnoxious tapping at my window. I️ roll over and rub the sleep out of my eyes and see Jake in his house throwing little objects at my window. I️ drearily get up and drag myself over to my window and open it.
"Good morning princess." He greets, extra chirpy for a morning. Why though? "Did you sleep good baby?" He says and it all comes flooding back to me. Jake is my boyfriend. Boy-friend. I️ repeat the word over and over in my head again and I️ feel a smile creep onto my face. He clears his throat. I️ must have blanked out.
"Yeah! I️ slept great!" I️ lie and I️ don't even know why. "Well-kinda, sorta, not really." I️ stutter out. He laughs at my reply and shakes his head.
"Get ready beautiful, you get to drive today." He winks at me and I️ immediately wake up and throw on my clothes. I️ LOVE driving his bike.
I️ slide on my light, high waisted jeans, a grey crop top, my leather jacket and boots. I️ pull my hair into double French braids because if I️ didn't it would be a mess after the ride. Lastly, I️ put on light makeup, feed Boe, grab my bag and make my way to Jake's house.
Jake came out wearing a similar outfit to mine. Actually, scratch that, exactly like mine. Jeans, grey shirt, leather jacket and boots. So we're going to be THAT kind of couple. I️ think and roll my eyes at my thoughts. I️ walk up to Jake And he hold his hand up like a drag queen would. "Oooohhhh no honey, one-a us gotta change and it ain't gon be me." He says in a dramatic girly voice and I️ couldn't hold back my laughter, which made him break out laughing as well. He pulls me in and laughs into my shoulder, shaking his head. I️ grab the keys from his pocket and run to the bike, sitting in front. "Princess, if you wanted me behind, all you had to do was say it." He winks and I️ roll my eyes at his dirty joke. I️ take off toward the school and we get lots of stares, probably because we just became a couple and already wearing matching clothes. That and the whole 'biker chick' thing hasn't worn off yet.
We walk into the school when the principal announces there's a meeting for seniors in the gym at first bell. Right after his intercom goes off, first bell rings and we make our way to the gym. Once everyone was seated into the bleachers, the principal announces that the senior class will be taking a class trip to a water park tomorrow and everyone jumps up happily. Jake smirks at me and leans over to whisper into my ear. "You know what that means baby?"
"What does that mean?" I️ whisper, playing along.
"I️ get to see you in a bikini." He winks and bites his lip. My weakness. I️ go speechless so I️ just punch his shoulder. "Hey hey, you don't HAVE to wear the bikini if you don't want to." He adds on and I️ just roll my eyes at him like always.
After the announcement was over, the rest of the day went by pretty quickly.
I️ drove Jake and I home and we took Boe on a walk around our block. Jake ended up staying the night and 'helped' me get ready for our trip tomorrow. The water park was only an hour away so it'd be a one day thing. I️ put my olive green crossbody bikini and an extra outfit in my bag, along with some money.

After Jake and I️ get done 'packing' we decide to call it a day and go to bed since we had a long day ahead of us tomorrow.
Jake and I️ curl up onto my bed and Boe was laying at the end. I️ fell asleep to Jake's heartbeat.
