Oh gosh. I felt my cheeks heat up and I'm sure I looked like a cherry. I looked up at him and he was smiling.
"Uhm- well yah see..." I trailed off and he looked hurt. "Oh it's okay, nobody really ever likes me anyways. Sorry I just got my hopes up on something stupid," he said and stood to leave.
"Jack, get back here," I say tugging his sleeve. "I do like you. I like your goofy grin, your beautiful eyes, and your heart which only beats for others. I like you more than you'll ever know and I don't know how much I can do to show you, but Jack Johnson, I like you."
He looked shocked and for a second I thought he was going to reject me. His eyes were wide and then he was pulling me into a hug.
We stood in the hug for what seemed like an eternity, but in reality was only a few minutes. When he pulled away, I found myself missing his warmth.
"What do we do now?" he asked me while walking to the kitchen. "Uhm well since I don't plan on going to school, do you wanna go eat?" I offered.
We packed up and drove to a mcdonalds down the street and walked in, hand in hand. We ordered our food and ate while we small talked.
"Do you wanna stay the night?" I asked while getting a drink of my sprite. He raised one eyebrow and looked at me confused.
"My parents are gone. They left me. You're more than welcome at my house, anytime." I explain. Now that I think about it, my mom nor my dad have even texted me. Weird...
"Kay!" Jack shouts. I jerk my head towards him and he sticks his icecream on my nose. "Jaaack!" I whine. I grab my icecream to get him back.
He takes off running to the kid playground and climbs inside the tunnel that goes into a small series of slides and tubes.
I chase after him and I loose him going down one of the slides. I see him down at a lower section and make my way to him. He had his back to me so I sneak up behind him and smear icecream on his cheek.
We fell onto the ground in laughter. We just sat there laughing looking at eachothers faces that had icecream all over them.
"I'm sorry, but we're going to have to ask you to leave," a worker said walking up to us. We ran out of Mcdonalds and once we got into the jeep we just burst out laughing.

We are cuddled up on my couch watching chick flicks and eating popcorn. Jack is playing with my hair, which by all means feels amazing.
The whole time I hold myself back from going crazy. The zoo in my stomach is going insane and my mind keeps shouting LOOK WE'RE CUDDLING!!
Channing Tatum asks the girl what she thinks love means. Of course she gives him a cheesy line like, "I think the meaning of love is feeling like there's nobody else you could like more."
I turn to face Jack and I see him already looking back at me. "So Jack, what do you think the meaning of love is?"
He thinks for a few minutes then smiles. "I think the meaning of love is having that one person that makes you feel alive. Makes you feel like you can't be happy unless that other person is there," he says.
I smile at him and he smiles at me. I turn my attention towards the screen again.
"That's how I feel when I'm with you," he says into my ear. His grip around my waist tightens and my zoo explodes.
