I headed over to the same tree as yesterday and sat under it waiting for Jacob as we agreed to meet here. I couldn't help but smile thinking about what had happened yesterday and what it felt like to be in his arms. I snapped out of my day dream to see Jacob walking over to me, I smiled and waved at him and he smiled back I got up walked over to him.

"So, Jacob what's the first thing I gotta do cause I don't wanna snap my neck today."

"Trust me you won't snap your neck, plus you have me and I'm amazing." We both couldn't help but laugh.

"okay no, but seriously, what have I gotta do."

"Well first just watch me and maybe take your jacket of it might help a little." I watched him do a few front flips then he took me through a step by step.

"Okay Daniel I want you to get a small run up and just do what we did in the run through okay."

"Uh yeah I'm totally not crapping myself right now." I tried to joke about it but seriously I was shitting myself I don't have any athletic ability but at least Jacob was there smiling at me which helped me calm down a little. I took a few steps away then started the run and jumped and put all my weight forward as he said but I landed on my ass which hurt like hell but you couldn't help but lose it laughing and when I saw Jacob's worried face I just lost it even more and then soon he was laughing as well. After ages of me trying and falling on my ass or going too far forward and face planting.

"You know Jacob I'm beginning to think that this is all purely for your enjoyment." I say this sarcastically after getting up after what was probs my 20 something fail.

"Not my fault you're just thinking about it took much relax and maybe you might land it." I roll my eyes and walk over to the starting point and let out a deep breath and start to run I jump put my weight forward and somehow, I landed it.

"OMG JACOB DID YOU SEE THAT I DID IT I LANDED IT OMG." I couldn't help but shout and without really thinking I ran at Jacob and jumped onto him hugging him. I could feel his arms wrapped around me and how his muscled where moving in his back. Then he left me down but he still had his arms around me so I looked up into his eye not really registering what was going on because of the adrenaline running through me.

"Did you see that I just landed a front flip, my first ever front flip, omg I feel amazing that was so cool, thank you." I finished speaking and looked into his eye and before I knew what I was doing I was moving my face closer to his and I could feel his breath on my lips.

"Your welcome." Was all he said as he closed the space between us and our lips meet and for second I forgot where I was and what is was doing and all there was in my world was me and Jacob and then he leaned away and I looked into his eyes and I saw the guilt in them.

"I'm sorry Daniel I shouldn't have done that." I didn't know what to say I was in shock so I just ran over to the tree grabbed my bag and jacket then left I just had to get away from him and back to my hotel. When I finally got to my room I didn't bother changing and even though it was only 5:00 and the sun was still up I jumped into bed and I don't think I have ever cried so hard in my life...
