    He pulled the car into the driveway of his house. His house looked nice on the outside. It was a two storey building.

  "My mom and my sisters shouldn't be back until maybe an hours time". He said unlocking the door and he led me into his grand kitchen. His house had a touch of luxury but looked homey at the same time.

Dora's gonna be jealous when she sees his house.

   "Your house looks great". I told him sincerely while looking around.

  "Thanks, well its my mom that did all this i can't even decorate my own room". He gestured amusingly as we laughed together. 

"What would you like to have?". He asked.

  I thought for a while,
"What about tequila or scotch instead?". I answered trying to make a joke.

  He chuckled and opened the refrigerator only to bring out a bottle of tequila and he offered it to me.

   I gasped in surprise and stared at him before hitting him playfully in the arm.

  "Oww". He cried out looking hurt but was still in a playful mood. "You really know how to hit a guy i think i heard my bones crack". he said while laughing and he put the bottle back into the fridge.

"Do you want to get me drunk, Jackie?". i joked.

"Jackie?!".

"Yeah Jackie, don't you like it?". i asked.

"No, you take that name back". He said to me.

"Or else what?".

"Or i wouldn't have to sit on you". he said dangerously while taking a step towards me.

   I decided to play since he was taking this to the next level.

"And what if I don't". i asked taking a step back.

"Then I have no other option than to drag you down with me and sit on you till you take that back". He replied.

  Within a split second,i decided to run and he chased me. Knowing he's probably faster than i am, i went for the dining table.

  We circled the table for a while before i decided to make a quick dash for the door but as i was about to grab the knob i felt his hands circling my waist and hoisting me and pulling my back into his wide and muscled chest.

  He turned me and we began to laugh together till it died down. I looked up and met his blue eyes staring deeply at me. I was oblivious to the fact that his hands were still on my waist and we were in the moment.

  My heart began to thump loudly in my chest. His fingers reached up to my face and it lightly brushed my cheeks as he pushed a strand of hair behind my ears.

   We were staring at each other for seconds but out felt like hours. He started to lean forward slowly, his gaze on my lips. Out of embarrassment,i quickly shut my eyes tightly to relish in the moment of my first kiss and i flinched as his lips grazed my ear.

"Now there's only one thing left". He whispered in my ear before carrying me as i screamed in shock and he pulled me down with him and he sat on me. It felt like a ton of bricks has just been places on me.

  "Get off me". i shouted while laughing as all the air is being pushed out of my lungs.

  He just laughed and continued to sit on me. Just then the door flew open and two identical twin girls came in bickering loudly.

"No she had a blue dress". Twin A said.

  "That was Cinderella, Beauty wore a yellow one not a blue one". Twin B clarified.

  Instantly, i yelped and both girls turned to our direction and stared strangely at us noticing the position we were in.

   Jack immediately jumped up from my back and lend me his hands for support to use to drag me up.

   A middle aged looking female came in and saw both jack and I standing together.

"Oh God". he murmured.

"Hey mom". he said to the female while rubbing the back of his neck nervously.

  My eyes widen immediately and i recognised the  features that jack has with her. His mum must think badly of me seeing me with her son.

   Twin B went towards her and dragged her dress down trying to get her attention and she  pointed towards Jack,

"Mom, Eddie is trying to kill that girl when we came in". she said.

  "Veronica!!!". Jack yelled at her in astonishment.

  Jack's mom laughed and walked towards me, she stretched her hand out for a handshake.

"Hi i'm Margie Gillies, i presume that you're a new friend of my son". she asked as i took her hand and shook it.

"I'm Tova Travis". i replied.

"So what's this about trying to kill you?". she asked clueless looking at both Jack and i.

"We were just kidding around when they came in". i answered quickly for her not to suspect anything.

"Are you sure?". she asked once more nudging her head in jack's direction.

"Yes". He exasperated.

  I took up my bag the floor for me to leave.

"Well I'll be on my way now". I said heading to the door.

"Already?". Jack frowned.

"Yeah,i didn't tell my sister that i was coming here". i answered.

"Why don't you call her and tell her where you are?". he pressed.

  "Besides i still have homework to do, I'll see you at school tomorrow. It was nice to meet you Mrs. Gillies and these adorable girls". i cooed.

  "I'm Veronica and i'm Vernelle". they both answered.

  "Why don't I drop you home". Jack asked.

  "Its okay, my house isn't that far and i know my way already, bye everyone". I said then i left the house.
