jerika : my little brother

chapter 11

Jakes POV :  the  next morning. 
I feel like today's the day I ask Erika about us.  I just don't know whats gonna happen.  I'm definitely scared that it might ruin our relationship  ,  or so if we even have one. 

Erika's POV :  jake has been day dreaming a lot this morning.  I don't know if its that he's still tired  ,  or if somethings wrong.  Or if he could just be ignoring me.  " Jakeeyy " I say to him as I tug on his waist.  No answer.  " Jake " I say while shaking him a little " Yea sorry I was thinking " .  " Is something wrong?  " I say in confusion " No no no nothing's wrong  ,  I'm just thinking about us  ,  you " He says and huggs me " Wanna go on a date later today?  " I ask her.  " Sure " I say with a big smile.  I really wanna know what's gonna happen  .  I'm kind of exited / nervous.  " It's gonna be at a beach so bring a swim suite " .  He says and walks away going upstairs.

2 hours before the date ;

Jakes POV :  I wanna make it special for Erika.  Tonight I'm thinking about asking Erika to be my girlfriend.  Im gonna get her a promise ring  ,  she's told me some stuff about her past relationships and I just want her to know that I'm gonna try and do everything I can for this relationship  ,  I'm gonna give it my all.  I'm not gonna hurt her and that I'll love her for her.  At the beach I'm thinking about a little blanket tent.  With lots and lots of candles.  Lots of blankets and pillows of course.  Some lights to hang up and some taco Bell because it's both of our favorites.

What the inside would look like

I'm now gonna go to cartier because I wanna get her a special ring.  I finally got it and went back to the house hiding the rain of course.  I knocked on Erika's door and she looked adorable.  She was wearing some Jean shorts and a cropped hoodie.  I had asked Chris if he could watch Jax for the night or so because I'm not sure how this is gonna turn out.  He said okay.  

So when we got the I covered Erika's eyes.  " Jake where are we going " She asked me.  I smiled " Your gonna like it.  I know you will " I say.  " Okay I trust you " She says.   I walk her right in front of the fort " 3...2...1 " And I take off the blind fold.  She gasps and hugs me so tight.  " Jake its so cute " She says we just stand there hugging.  " So you wanna eat now or after we swim " I ask " Hmm  ,  after we swim " She says as she takes off her hoodie and her shorts  ,  underneath had her black 2 piece bathing suit.  I gotta say she looked pretty cute.  I took off my shirt and my pants and put on my swim trunks.  With her pulling my hands towards the water.  We swam  ,  we talked and the best part we had a make out sess.  Now it was time we go up and ate.  " Taco Bell my favorite " She says as she giggles.  That giggle,  it's so amazing.  Shes so perfect.  I got out my computer and we watched some movies while finishing our food.  Then I throwed them away in the trash can.  " Hey Rik can you come here " I said while I was standing out side the blanket fort with a boquet of roses in my hand.  And the ring in my pocket.  She came out and smiled at me " Jake what's this for " Said.    " Erika Costell  ,  from the first day I met you  ,  you always found a way to make me happy.  I was always happy when I was with you  ,  but when I'm not,  I miss you so much.  You made me laugh  ,  you made me smile like no other.  And I really think we have a connection.  Will you be my girlfriend " I said as nervous as ever.  " Yes jake yes " She said as she hugged me.  I gave her the roses and pulled out the ring.  " This is a promise ring.  In this relation ship  ,  I promise to always do my best to keep you happy ,  I promise I will give it my all,  and I promise I won't screw up,  Rik I know what happened in your previous relationships  ,  but I wanna be better than them.  I wanna be the man you deserve " I say as I put it on her left hand pointer finger.  " Jake  ,  I love you so so so much " She said and kissed me passionatly.  " I love you to Erika costell " I say and pick her up bridal style and bring her into the fort tent.
