Jerika: It's Complicated 🐐💙

Chapter 12

5 weeks later

Narrator: Christian and Erika had gotten closer, they went on dates often. Jake also wasn't giving up on Erika. He would send her messages throughout the day. She always did her best to ignore them.

She was getting ready to meet Christian, they had plans to go watch a movie together.
As they were waiting in line to get the tickets, they were talking

Christian: So I have a question for you
Erika: Yeah What's up?
Christian: let's make this official, would you be my girlfriend?
Erika: oh wow
Christian: Wow? I guess we're not on the same page
Erika: Sorry no, I wasn't expecting that question. Sure id love to be your girlfriend
Christian: You have no idea how happy you made me

Narrator: they held hands and made their way inside. To be honest Erika couldn't get over Jake but damn was she trying. She does like Christian but not as much as Jake.
They watched the movie and went to get ice cream after. It was getting late and Erika had to be up early so Christian took her home.
As they were saying their goodbyes Christian went in for a kiss, Erika was caught off guard and quickly rushed inside after saying good night.

Tessa: E! I miss you so much, it's been a week already since I've seen you
Erika: I know, I'm sorry! All my time goes to photo shoots or dates with Christian.
Tessa: You guys are so cute!
Erika: Stop..

Erika: Haha sure whatever you say
Tessa: Are you guys official?
Erika: Yeah, he asked me to be his girlfriend today
Tessa: AWWWW! When you get married can I be your bridesmaid *laughs*
Erika: That's never going to happen
Tessa: why not?
Erika: Because I'm not going to get married
Tessa: You're not over Jake are you
Erika: I'm not answering that..
Tessa: You don't have to, I already know. But give Christian a chance to prove to you not all guys are the same
Erika: Gooooodnight T!
Tessa: You sure do know how to avoid talking. Good night E love you

Narrator: Jake couldn't hear much but he did hear that Erika was now Christian's girlfriend. He became sad but even more determined to get her back.

10:30 AM

Narrator: It was a slow day and Erika was still at home relaxing. She didn't have any plans for today so she wanted to chill at home.
Her phone rang and it was her agent, he had booked her for a few shows to walk in Milan, Italy and some interviews about Team 10. There was one problem, she would stay for a little over a month. He told her he would give her some time to pack but her flight would be Friday night.

Erika was really excited but she wasn't sure how to feel leaving for a month. She called Lauren and Sonia over to help her pack. But she needed to go tell Team 10, Nick was the only person to know but she rather everyone hear it from her.
