My Idiotic Roommates// Why Don't We

Thirteen: Marry Me?

--Jack's POV--

"Wake up, wake up, wake up!" I hear Jea and Kyle shout along with the banging of pots and pans. with a groan, I bury my head in the nearest thing to my head. Corbyn's Chuckle touches my ears, so, I'm assuming that I'm nestling my head into his chest. "wake up!" Jea shouts I feel her grip the blanket, I instantly curl my fingers around the soft material.

"don't even think about it,"I warn, remaining my death grip on the warm blanket.

"come on, get up," Jea says letting go of the blanket and tapping my hip. I feel Corbyn start to move and my body become colder.

"don't move, you're warm," I mumble moving closer to him for warmth.

"we're camping, we can't just sleep half the day," Corbyn says with a light chuckle.

"your right, we can sleep three-quarters of the day,"I mutter my body not wanting to move an inch, my mind agreeing with it.

"you might want to move Corbyn,"I hear Kyle say, Corbyn quickly moves away and before I can do anything, I feel a wave of ice cold water consume my body. a squeal escapes my lips, my shaking body curls into a ball searching for any source of warmth.

"get up," Jea pulls me up, yet my eyes still closed.

"fine, fine, I'm getting up,"I open my eyes and balance myself on my feet. I turn to Kyle with a glare, " I hate you,"I say.

"hate you too, Jacks," he replies.

"grab your stuff Jacks, we're hitting the showers," Jea says.

"I'd rather bath in the ocean, the showers here a slimy," I complain.

"I'm down with that," Jack announces pocking his head into our side of the tent.

"me too," Zach agrees

"I'm in," Daniel says

"I'm down for that," Jonah states

"looks like we're going to the beach," Jea shrugs, I grab her hand and she pulls me up. after changing into our bathing suits and gather towels, sunscreen, all that junk you need at the beach, we head down towards the beach.

we get down to the because and find a spot shaded by the rocks and cliffs. the boys drop their things, take off their shirts and run into the water, Jea and I set up a small areea and climb on top of the rocks. "how are you feeling?" Jea asks knowing memories are connected to this place.

"I'm okay," I reply honestly, "you go swim, I'll be okay," she smiles hugging me and joins the guys in the water. I sit on the rock staring into the distance, watching my friends splashing in the water.

they are my friends. the only friends I've ever had are Jea, Kyle and him. now I have the boys and even Cole, Dylan and Alec too. here I'm not bullied, I'm not invisible, I belong with them, I belong at college. after the incident, I only thought things would get worse, maybe I was wrong. since the incident things have been better, I have real friends, I'm going to college like I've always wanted, I'm just missing him.

it felt like my world revolved around him, he was my world.

now everything is different, some parts better than others.

"Jacks,"I snap out of my trance hearing Kyle call my name, I hum in response. "coming back here has got me thinking," he says climbing onto the rock next to me, "I want to ask Jea to marry me."

i freeze. my body flooded with emotion, happiness, sadness, joy, shock, feeling like breaking down. "but I won't if it's too much," he says grabbing my hand.

"no," I shake my head, "ask her, you two deserve your moment," I tell him. "Jea has always looked after me, then after what happened, you two have thought more about me then yourselves. it's your turn now," a grin takes over his lips and he hugs me.

"we'll always look after you, you're my little sister," he says, I can't help but smile.

"go on and have fun with your wife-to-be," I tell him, he left back into the water without a second thought.

"I know we're only young."

I close my eyes and take deep breaths to stay calm.

"I know most people will say we're stupid."

I bring my knees up to my chest hugging my legs together.

"but I want to prove them wrong."

I cover my ears trying to block the voice.

"I love you, it's cheesy but I have since the moment I first saw you. you are so unique, different, confident, talented, gorgeous, smart, smart-arsed, most amazing girl I have ever met. I never what to lose you, I don't know what I would do if I did."

my breath picks up, I try to pace myself but it feels like my lungs have collapsed.

"now I don't care when this happens but I want to know that one day it will."

I stop trying to control my breath, I just stop breathing.

"Jack Rose Myer, will you make my dreams come true and marry me?"

I stare into the ocean, my view dazed, my breath little and slow. my body limp, swaying lightly with the breeze.

"yes."
