        "Jacob! Wake up! I'm hungry!" I yelled into his ears.

        "I'm up, babe. I'm up. What do you want to eat?" He slowly started to lift his head up and rubbed his eyes.

        "Let's go to KFC, hmmm?" I made duck lips and began to blink my eyes a lot towards Jacob. I grabbed his hands to get up and dragged him out of bed. He was so tired; falling onto the floor, I knelt down on my knees so I would be near his face. I gave him a small kiss on the lips, and his eyes shot open and he was running to the washroom. Were my kisses that bad, or did I just fill up his energy tank? 

        "Come on babe; get ready so we can get some food!" Jacob tugged my arms and ran into the washroom. I grabbed our tooth brushes and we began to brush our teeth. As we spat into the sink, he brought my head upside down so I'd be facing him.

        "How's my breath?" he said while breathing into my face. Before he could even finish his first breath, I cupped his mouth close and laughed. 

        "It's fine, and never breathe into my face ever again." I released his mouth from my hands and he kissed my cheek. 

        "I love you. Now hug me, Rosey." Jacob held out his arms gesturing for me to hug him.

        "Ya gotta catch me first if you want the prize." I ran out of the washroom and ran down the stairs into the living room. I hid behind the side of our black leather couch and tried to lower the sound of my breathing. I heard footsteps running down the stairs and curled my body into a ball to take up less space for hiding.

        "Babe... Where are you...?" I could feel his presence getting closer and closer. I held my body as tight as I could, and felt the couch seats lower from someone sitting on them. The couch made noises as Jacob crawled on the seats I predict. I felt strands of hair from the top of my head start to lift and get twisted. 

        "This is some nice brown hair. I should cut it... for a souvenir." His voice sounded creepy and a moment later I heard the sound of scissors.

        "No Jacob, no!" I jumped out from behind the couch and tripped on the edge falling onto Jacob's lap. My back and head ached in pain as I tried getting up.

        "See, faith brought you back to me." Even through my closed eyes, I knew he was winking at me. I slapped his leg and he kissed my forehead. 

        "KFC." I sat on his lap until he said yes. He held my waists and picked me up. 

        "Get ready, and I'll get your car ready," he said while pushing me to the stair case. "Wear short shorts if you can..." I gave him a dirty look while he grinned at me with his pearly white teeth, and ran up the steps. It was windy today, and it was going to rain, so I'm not sure why he wanted me to wear short shorts. Oh, maybe he wanted to comfort me when I'm cold. Actually, never mind now I know. Today I was going to wear white skinny jeans, and my royal blue silk torso. I put on my gold chain necklace and sprayed some Midnight Fantasy perfume by Britney Spears. If Jacob was going to hug me, I had to smell nice for him. I ran down the stairs and jumped onto his back kissing his neck. 

        "You're already ready boo?" 

        "Yea. Come on, I got the car ready for us so let’s go get your KFC." 

        "Okie dokie." I slipped on my black Doc Martens and leather jacket while running out the door, flapping my hands like a bird. I stood in front of the drive way waiting for Jacob to come outside. When he came out, he laughed while I flapped my hands everywhere.

        "Baby, are you a bird?" 

        "Yes, boo. Are you a bird?" I ran towards him still flapping my hands and began to hop up and down.
