Across From You (Jerika)

Chapter 19

Jake's pov- I am currently getting dressed, since Rik wants to go out to "celebrate" I tried to convince her that I rather stay home to watch a movie or something, but she insisted. As I was finishing up fixing my hair, Erika walked in looking absolutely stunning. She was wearing a pinkish mini dress that had her back exposed with a slit on her leg, she looked good, fucking good. I was in awe, I was snapped out of my thoughts when Erika spoke up.

Erika- Jake, what do you think? I'm not sure if I can pull it off, maybe I should chang-

Jake- Erika, you look insanely good. Wow, you're looking like a total babe. (Erika giggled and wrapped her arms around him.)

Erika- thank you handsome. I love you

Jake wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her cheek.

Jake- I love you too. You ready to go?

Erika- yea let me grab my clutch.

Jake and Erika had pulled up to the bar, they went to say hi to hopefully Max. She wasn't sure if Max or Charlie were working that night.

Erika- Maxxxxxx, hiii

Max- hey babes and blondie

Jake- hey Max(chuckles)

Max- rik babes, you look incredible in that dress

Erika- thanks Max.

Max- so what can I get yall?

Erika- hmmm, shots!!!

Jake- you wanna start off with shots, jeez my girl can drink.

Erika- haha yes, we are celebrating so shots it is.

Max gave them a couple of shots to start off with. After Rik had 5 shots, she was feeling loopy and in the mood to dance.

Erika- Jakeeyyy, I wanna dance (giggles)

Jake- Rik how many shots have you had?

Erika- (giggles) this many, (Puts 5 fingers up)

Jake- awe jeez babe, maybe you should take it down a notch.

Erika started to dance on Jake and laughing her ass off. Jake had never seen Erika this way. He started to dance with her, because Erika would start to wine if he didn't. He wrapped his arms around her waist and danced with her. Erika kissed Jake and turned around to the bar for another drink.

Erika- maxxx, I want another drink please (she giggled)

Charlie- Erika?

Erika- where's Max?

Charlie- out back, we are working the night together. I see you brought your boytoy with you.

Jake- hey Rik, what's going on here? is he bothering you??

Erika- babbbyy I want to go home, he's being mean.

Jake- lets go home then.

Erika giggled and kissed Jake in front of Charlie. Charlie just rolled his eyes and left to the other side of the bar. Jake grabbed Erika hand and walked her home, since her apartment was right across the bar.

Once Jake got her inside, he made sure she was okay and went to grab her some pjs to change into. Jake was drunk but not like Rik. When he got back to her, she was passed out on the couch. Jake chuckled to himself and carried Erika to her bed. He carefully took her dress off and slipped on an oversized tee shirt. Erika had woken up and pulled Jake down to her. She smiled and hugged him.

Erika- love you Jake, thank you

Jake- love you more Rik. (kissed her cheek goodnight and got in bed with her.)
