"So I heard you got detention?" Lucas pressed when I walked in the door.
"Really? Who told you?"
"They called me because they couldn't get ahold of mom or dad," he explained.
I groaned, "it was all Jake's fault."
"Jake Kingston?"
I rolled my eyes. Somehow everyone in this town knows who he is. I realize he's the king of Cadence Prep but he's not the king of New York!
"Yes Jake Kingston."
Lucas laughed, "yea his sister is in my class, she's kinda hot."
I groaned loudly, "ugh Lucas I don't want to know about your hormones!"
He laughed even harder.
I just rolled my eyes.
I heard a knock at the door and reluctantly got up.
I opened the door and groaned.
"What do you want Kingston?!"
He chuckled humorlessly.
I just blinked at him because maybe if I blink enough he'll go away.
But no his hot as hell body was still there.
What? Just because I hate him doesn't mean I don't have eyes not to mention hormones! I mean come on the guy is hot but I still hate the guy's guts.
I know I swore off dating boys ever since that incident but I still see when they're hot. I promised myself that I would NEVER like anyone and I don't break promises.
I looked at him boredly, "why are you here?"
"Too see my favorite girl," he winked.
I rolled my eyes, "Charming."
He gave me a sly grin, "I know I am."
"Well you're not my favorite guy!"
He shrugged, "so what? My self-confidence is not phased at all by you thinking that highly of me."
"Cool," I replied flatly.
"Got anything to eat?"
"That's what you want to know?!"
He chuckled, "well I thought rich people would have tons of food."
I rolled my eyes and led him in the kitchen, "there you go."
He reached for some fruit and placed it in the blender.
He handed me a strawberry banana smoothie.
"Thanks," I muttered.
I really do hate the guy tho. He's so full of himself and doesn't care about girls at all not to mention he's so guarded.
"Want to go somewhere?" Jake suddenly asked.
"Uh... where?"
I didn't want to be rude. Okay you guys probably think I'm already rude to Jake but that's just because I don't like him. The people that are my friends, I'm nice to.
He shrugged, "I don't know, the pool?"
I pondered it for a minute, going to the pool would be kinda fun but I just know that jerk will be a little bitch.
"I guess...."
I'm probably gonna regret this later.
"Either that or we could go to that theme park that opened up."
He was referring to USA, it has all the famous landmarks across the United States as roller coasters and water slides.
Oh man what do I do?! I love rollercoasters but Jake....
"Can I invite some friends?" I inquired.
"Sure."
Is he cooperating?!
"Check this out folks, Jake Kingston decided to be nice and cooperate for once!"
He rolled his eyes, "funny."
I smirked, "I know I am Kingston."
"Are you gonna text your friends or what?" He chuckled.
I pulled out my phone and opened up group chat.
Endless Summers: Hey do any of you want to go to USA?!
One of them responded immediately.
Chase: Sure should I meet you there?
Why in his name so normal!?
Endless Summers: I'll pick you up.
Chase: Okay I'll be ready in ten.
I grinned, at least I'll have one friend there.
Savannah Georgia: Wait USA?!
Endless Summers: Yep.
Savannah Georgia: Are you parents taking us?
Endless Summers: No... Jake asked if I wanted to do something so now we're going to USA.
Savannah Georgia: Oooh. Can I get a boy like that?! 😍
Endless Summers: We're not dating!! 😡
Savannah Georgia: Whatever you want to tell yourself now go get ready and wear something hot, hot boys might be there😉
I rolled my eyes at my bff's obsession with love.
I decided I should wear a hot bathing suit so I slipped in my dresser and found a purple and white zebra striped Prada one.
Smiling to myself, I slipped into the bathing with a melatic purple swim skirt and hopped down the stairs.
"Okay we should go pick up my friends and whoever you decided to invite."
"Well Chase wouldn't answer his damn phone so its just Blake."
"Oh Chase will be there," I replied bluntly.
"What? Who invited him?"
"Me."
His jaw dropped, "why did you invite him?!" His knuckles were ghost white and he was clenching his fists.
I rolled my eyes, "because he's my friend Jake. No come on," I grabbed his hand.
I couldn't help but feel the electricity that shot up my arm when it touched his but I shook it off.
He seemed to let me gently pull him out of the house which surprised me, I mean sure he kissed me back when I was positive he wouldn't but I assumed that was for show. Was it? Was he just trying to show off to his friends because I was Brooklyn Summers or was it different than that?
Oh come on Brooklyn, you're getting ahead of yourself.
He likes you.
I tried to brush off the impossible thoughts that were creeping into my mind but I couldn't forget those three little words.
Is it possible that Jake Kingston likes me? Why am I putting so much thought into this? Everyone in school knows he's claimed by Madison Harper and anyone who touches him, she will make their life a living hell. I know what she can do because she did it once before to me...
"Are you okay?" Jake asked with concern laced in his voice.
"Um yea I'm fine."
"Good because I'm going to beat at those water slides," instead of a smirk, a genuine smile crossed his face and every time I blinked it was still there.
Is Jake showing his true colors..... to me?
I had to get rid of this nonsense my brain was thinking up.

Chapter 3 is done! Four will be out sometime today so stay tuned.
