Meant To Be: A Jerika Story

Chapter Twenty Three

One Month Later-

Erika POV: Jake and I have had a thing for about a month now. We're not exactly dating, but we're not just friends either. What can I say; it's complicated. Anyways, this weekend Team Ten was going to Vegas and enjoying a stay in a nice resort. Everyone was packing for the trip except for Jake and Chanthony, who were joining us later. When it was time to leave for Vegas I go up to Jake's room to say goodbye.
"Bye Jake." I wrap my arms around his neck. "See ya soon," he replies as he nuzzles my cheek. I smile, and go to walk out the door when he grabs my arm.
"Just saying-this trip will be unforgettable," he says with a wink.
"Well now I'm scared," I reply; nervously laughing. He doesn't say anything, just gives me a sly smile.
"Trust me, you don't know what's coming." I shake my head in confusion.
"You're not really making sense right now." "Just wait," he replies, to which I roll my eyes. "Bye Jake." I wave goodbye and leave his room to go get in the van.

Two Days Later-

Jake POV: Chance, Anthony and I had finally arrived in Vegas, and we were ready to have some fun. I was super excited; for today's vlog Chance and I were going to ask Tessa and Erika to "marry" us. No YouTuber had ever done something like this before. Even Erika and Tessa had no idea this was happening. I had hinted at it to Erika, but there was no way she would expect this.
"Are you sure about this?" asks Anthony, looking between Chance and I.
"Why? It's just a joke for the vlog," I reply. Anthony shakes his head.
"Both of you guys are already low key involved with them. This is a pretty big change to that dynamic." I shrug.
"Now I get to make out with her on camera too. So I don't see the problem." Chance laughs and nods in agreement.

Erika POV: Tessa and I are chatting over some froyo when my phone rings. I pick it up to see that it's Jake.
"Heyy," I say.
"Hey, where are you?" he asks.
"Food court."
"Alright, see you there honey," he says with a laugh. I roll my eyes; he could be so weird sometimes. After a bit they arrive and join us, and we all joke and talk together for awhile. Then all of a sudden Chance gets down on one knee.
