chapter 24- Just a Friend

kenzie's p.o.v

You could say Jacob wasn't exactly thrilled about the change of plans but he didn't say anything. He simply agreed, giving me a sweet kiss. I felt really guilty because all he wanted was to spend time with me and I couldn't even giving him that.

"Anyways I'm going home. do you want me to give you a ride later when we're going to hang out with everyone?" He asked.
I thought for a minute,"don't worry about it. I'll meet you there. It'll be more convenient for me to go with Lauren and John."

He nodded and then gave me a little peck on my cheek before walking off.

There were so many things I liked about Jacob. One was that he was so forgiving. Even after Johnny misbehaved with him the other day when he was drunk, he was still so nice and patient with him.
I don't know what's gotten into John but ever since Jacob and I've started dating he's developed this hatred towards Jacob.

Is it because of the whole Jacob is a player thing?
Cause he thought Jacob wasn't good enough for me?

I thought about asking Johnny the reason but then dismissed the idea because he would probably start nagging me to break up with him or point out all Jake's faults.

"Hey, shall we?" I heard John's voice coming from behind me and I turned to see him standing near his car. Lauren was already inside, sitting at the back with her airpods in her ears.

I moved towards his car, opened the passengers seat and sat down. John shut the door behind him after getting in and started the car.

When we reached I was a little surprised when Johnny stopped the car at the Orlando's for a second for Lauren to get off and then moved it forward, parking outside my house.

I looked at him questioningly.

"I'm hanging out at yours till we leave. Anyways it's been too long since I last met your mom."

I made a face getting out of the car,"You saw her day before yesterday."
He shrugged, following me as I fished the key out from under the mat.

"Bad timing she's at work."

"Well I guess I'll just have to bear with you till then." He teased, earning a sharp jab from me.
I twisted the door open and we got in.

At once we were attacked by my over excited dog Maliboo.
She wagged her tail, as John chuckled, leaning down to pet her.

"Haven't seen my girlfriend in ages." He said cutely to her.
"Don't let Nadia catch you saying that." I snorted.

He ignored me, lifting maliboo up and giving her a swift kiss.

"Let's go upstairs."I said, putting the key down on the table.

He trailed after me upstairs.
I set my bag down on the floor as he hopped on to my bed, making himself comfortable.

"What's this?" He frowned, picking up a small frame that had a picture of me and Jacob in a photo booth at Uniclo.
I was laughing in the picture and Jacob has his arms around me, giving me a kiss on my cheek.

I blushed,"Nothing." I grabbed it out of his hand, setting it on my desk.

"So you and Brown are serious?" He asked me, raising an eyebrow.
I grabbed my laptop from my table, moving towards him as I pulled a little blanket over us, getting comfortable.
