{The Turf}

  I got down to the Turf with no one on the field surprisingly, but people walking around the track. I sit down on the bench when I see Jake coming over here.

  He comes over to where my stuff is, where I'm sitting. I stand up and he comes into hug me.

  "Hey sorry I'm a little late, I had to make sure my mom got a babysitter for the twins since I was leaving. She's still there, but she'll be leaving soon," Jake says.

  "Oh that's okay, we never had a set time anyway," I said.

  We practice for at least an hour and a half. We mostly practice assists, so we can get more goals from us in the next upcoming games.

  We finish up and carry our bags off the field around the back of bleachers, but we are stopped by Tyler and Alexa? We quickly hide behind the school building enough to over hear their conversation.

  "Alexa, I love you," I heard Tyler say.

  "No you don't. You're doing this just because you hate Kara and Jake together and you want to make Kara jealous. To be honest, I don't want any part of it," Alexa argues as she walks away from Tyler.

  "Wait Alexa," Tyler calls out and Alexa stops and turns only her head. "If I didn't love you, than why did I get you a box of chocolates and roses." He hold out his arms with them in his two hands.

  She turns her whole body around smiling and walks back toward him. I look at Jake a little sad. He looks at me and takes my hand and holds it. I smile and we leave because I can already guess they're hugging.

  I just don't understand how they will make me jealous because I don't even like Tyler anymore. I love Jake and no one with change even if they try.

{Jake's house}

  I drive back to Jake's house following his car back. We arrive and we walk up to the door, getting out his key to unlock it. I look around and see a different car in the driveway, "must be the babysitter," I thought.

  We get in and I follow Jake around. I've only seen his basement, so he gives me a little house tour. His house is really nice and big.

  As we reach the playroom to say "Hi" to Madison and Mason, that's when I freak out. I walk in first and see Libby and Cameron sitting in the ground playing with them. I was only in the door frame when I turn around to Jake.

  "Jake, why?" I ask putting my head down while he wraps his arms around me. He also has a sad face. We slowly back out of the room while they're still looking at us.

  "Kara... I didn't know they were here," Jake squeezes me tight rubbing my back. He feels awful.

  We head outside, hoping the kids wouldn't want to come play out here. We lie down on the grass and look up to the sky instead of at each other.

  "I'm sorry I'm a wimp," I said. "I literally can't look at Libby or Cameron, especially after Alexa and Tyler."

  "Kara, don't be sorry. It's okay, I'm here," Jake turns towards me and slips his arm around my neck. I look into his dreamy eyes thankful that I have him.

  "Jake, how long have you liked me?" I ask.

  He looks a little unsure, "A while."

  "But when?" I wanted to know.

  "Ever since Tyler crushed your feelings," he says. "Back in Freshman year. I've been Tyler's best Friend since birth and I couldn't see him hurt anyone especially a girl. I get it you're a strong girl, but seeing you cry makes me cry too. Every time I saw you hurt, I felt really bad that my best friend did that, I trusted him. And I felt worse when I couldn't help you. You're not fragile, but it takes a lot to make you cry and Tyler succeeded."

  By now, I'm crying because I didn't know he liked me for three years and now I feel bad it's senior year and it's too late.

  "I'm sorry for wasting time with Tyler, when I should've been with you," I said. "I liked Tyler back then, but the one thing I did most of was forgave him a lot and now look at me."

  "I understand, I'm just glad I finally have you in the end," he smiles.

  "Me too, gotta save the best for last," I smiled and we are all back to our happy selves. "I'll try not to panic whenever I see them again."

  "Remember it's okay, people have feelings," he calmly says. "I'm always here for you no matter what."

{School Hallway - Monday}

  I shove my backpack in my locker and Jake meets me at mine instead today. I tried to organize my locker a little, but it wasn't the best.

  I look up to Jake and he's looking around so I get back to what I was doing and he quickly covers me as if he's trying to hide me.

  I just stay put, not moving. I don't why, but I'll let him do his thing, he's very protective of me.

  "Kara, we have to get out of here," he quickly turns and whispers in my ear. "You go ahead and run and I'll be right behind you."

  I knew he would tell me what's up until I heard it myself.

  "Look at that overprotective boyfriend! Trying to 'protect' her from these comments. Won't work!" Yelled Libby.

  I tried so hard not to cry, I'm not fragile, I'm not fragile.

  "We have the proof that they're together! We were babysitting Jake's siblings when we saw them there cuddling. I know where he lives now!" Cameron yelled.

  I quickly sprinted slamming my locker shut. Jake following behind me.

  "Look! Now she's trying to run away from her problems!" Both of them yell. "Hey Kara! You know that never works! I would just stop running!"

  We run outside of the school sitting on the curb. I have my hands over my face crying so hard my make up is running down my face. I don't even want to take my hands off.

  Jake sits closely next to me with his arm around me, speaking softly and repeatedly kissing my cheek.

  I cheer up but I still don't want to take my hands of my face, I would look like a complete mess.

  We realize periods have passed and teachers haven't even come out or seen us when they are  walking in. I don't mind, I just care about Jake missing class or hearing horrible comments about him.

  "Jake, you can go," I said.

  "What are you kidding?! I'm not leaving you," he chokes up. "Never will I ever leave you."

  He pulls my hands off my face and uses his sleeves to clean up my face.

  "Jake, your shirt will be ruined from this make up, stop," I didn't want his to ruin and stain his shirt just because of my sadness.

  "This shirt doesn't even fit me anymore, so here use it." He takes off his shirt and hands it to me.

  I chuckle and smile, "Damn," I thought.

  "Thanks. I love you.. like a lot," I said leaning my head against his bare shoulder.
