Weeks have gone by and it's been the same routine. Jamal and I spend every waking hour together, either his here or on the phone to me. He's changed so much since that first week of our relationship and I was enjoying it. He picked me up and dropped me at home. He helped me with Emily's homework while I prepared dinner which he always, somehow managed to distract me from but in a good way and now when we hide in my room. I let Jamal's hands touch me in places I never used to let him. We're bonding more and I'm starting to really fall in love now. Jasper has still been there, flirting and being his usual self but the funniest moment had to be when he told April and Lily to fuck off and that he'd rather be a virgin that stick his dick in them. They were devastated and what's worse was it was at lunchtime and everybody heard and well let's just say they haven't been the same since oh and they stay away from Jasper as much as possible. It had the opposite effect on the boys, they loved it and cheered him on. The girls left and the boys gave him high 5's and now are best of friends. I know it's a little mean but it's been nice not having them around as much. Jamal gives Jasper dirty looks when he compliments me or flirts a little. I tell Jamal that his being ridiculous but his sure that Jasper is trying to steal me away from him - his words not mine! I think it's funny, from practically ignoring me to being all over me and shacked up every day, kissing and cuddling and experimenting more with each other at home. It felt weird but exciting weird. Jamal was sweet and loving towards me and I'd missed his affection and friendship so it was nice having us back with a little more. I’ve missed Jasper he hasn’t been around as much and not that I’ve had much time for him. Jamal and I have been so close lately that I haven’t seen Jasper much at all. I do know he said no to April and Lily who hate him now and bag him out and call him gay but I defend him each time and they just start on me. Jamal tells April and Lily to stop and they do but only for a while but it’s better than hearing those horrible things about a friend of mine.
After school Jamal had an appointment or something to go too so Jasper decided to walk me home. I don’t know why but in the last few days he’s been hanging around, no one has said much to him or questioned where he’s been but I accepted him back as my friend and that was enough for him so he stayed to see Emily who was excited to see him. They worked on her homework and I, so miss having Jamal's arms around me but I knew I’d speak to him later. He was going to call after his appointment. I prepared and started dinner before going out. I had no homework since I'd already done and finished it during class today so I had free time to do whatever Em wanted. When asked she said hair and makeup. I thought Jasper would bail since he had pretty long hair but he didn't and Emily took advantage of it and made him her model. The poor guy, as she poked and probed him. He just said peacefully in the chair let her go, she was so happy when she finished. I on the other hand couldn't stop laughing. He looked like a clown and insane clown at that! "What you don't like my new look?" he asked and I shook my head
"Well I think you need a big sloppy kiss form me then!"
"No Jasper" my eyes went wide as he got up and came towards me
"Jasper" i warned but he ignored me and came rushing over.
I jumped out of my chair and up the stairs to my room. Slamming it shut and locking it form inside, he started banging on it "B baby, please let me in?"
"NO, go away Jasper. Those lips are not touching me!"
"Oh come on. They don't bite!" he tried to say seductively but I cracked up laughing causing him to do the same
"Oh come on Brook, just open the door!?"
"NO!" I screamed through the door.
Then there was no answer, I lay on the ground and look for feet but I can't see anything "Jasper?" I called out but no response
"Jasper!" I cried out through the bottom of the door, still nothing.
I'm not going out there, he's just waiting for me. I can feel it.
I waited for a while as I couldn't hear anything not even the whispers from earlier so I decided the coast should be clear and if not I'd run towards the bathroom or the front door. Depending on which way they came, so I unlocked my door and opened it slowly before pecking my head out. I was so cautious that I had my whole body almost out when they came at me from both ways and I didn't know where to go. I tried to go back to my room but Jasper was already here. He grabbed me, i screamed loudly as he pulled me to him and Emily came up and then while holding onto me he let Emily tickle me. Making he twist and turn in his hands. We were all laughing and giggling when we heard a noise come from downstairs. We all froze and looked at each other "What was that?" Emily asked and Jasper stood up straight and went to investigate.
I giggled a little as I thought about the intruder seeing Jasper's clown face while he's trying to subdue them, they'd properly burst out in a fits of laughter? I watched as he cautiously starts to walk down the stairs, he looks up at us and Emily comes over and he points to my room and I nod. I move Emily and I into my and make her hide just in case while I man the door with a baseball bat. It’s quite for a while then I hear voices and they get closer to my door. I lift the ball up ready to swing when my door opens. I scream and then swing, while swinging I see Jamal's shocked face ducking as the bat swung over his head "Brook NO!" he yelled at me.
I quickly dropped the bat and looked at Jamal "Are you okay?" I was scared, worried and concerned.
He stood back up and looked at me "Are you crazy?" Jasper and Emily started laughing and I got a little annoyed at them all, so with hand son my hips I start saying
"Well Jasper went downstairs because we heard a noise and last I was told, was to hide then when you just came barging into the room I thought you were.....I don't know a rapist or something?" the room out silent briefly before they all laughed out loud at me.
I walked off in a huff
"Uh come on Brook, it was funny...Please stop I'm sorry I should have knocked?!" I kept walking down the hall, then the stairs to the kitchen.
I was fuming, how dare they laugh at me. I thought he was seriously someone coming to hurt us.
I grab a drink and try settle down. With my back turned and hand on the counter. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath and tried to regain my sanity. I wasn't alone for long when some hands wrapped around my waist and pulled me back. I knew it was Jamal, we'd been so close lately that I could be in a room of men and still find him. I knew his touch and what it does it me and his smell, it was old spice and I loved it. His hair was always soft and in his face to hide those beautiful eyes of his. I almost knew him in and out but I wasn't ready to know the whole him yet although my emotions have been running wild lately with him around and we've been going a little further each week while alone up in my room and I didn't mind because if or when I felt uncomfortable I'd tell him to stop and we would. I was happy having him so close to me and sometimes I even missed it. I can honestly say I have turned into one of those clingy girlfriends. I wasn't meant to but with all this affection and time alone I'd come to really enjoy his company and Emily loved having him around. Dad too, Jamal has stayed most nights. I think Dad likes having another male around so they have their man talks and i think it's cute. I even tease Jamal and he always blushes when I ask what they talk about "Nothing much, just stuff" he says
"Like what?" I’d always ask
"Man stuff?"
"Like sex?" Jamal would freeze up and go shy on my while his face blew up a nice shade of red.
He'd quietly say "no" or "maybe?" and I'd laugh at him. "Don't Jamal. It's not funny. I didn't know who you were!"
"Oh baby don't be like that. I think you've got a great at swing. You'd knock any rapist or burglar out one day nicely" I chuckle a little and he nibbles on my ear.
Sending shivers down my spine "Stop" I whisper but he doesn't and do you know why?
Well since we've been getting real close Jamal has mastered the art of knowing what turns me on or what I like so this was something he'd realised I liked and was doing it to relax me a little "Come on Brook. You know deep down you can't stay mad at me forever! What will your dad think?" I turn to look at him
"Really, right at a moment like this where you were winning me over you bring my dad up? Gawd Jamal" i push him away.
It’s not like I hate my dad but this bromance thing they have going is starting to get old and annoying.
