The Journey // Jacob Whitesides

Chapter 3: Insecure

I woke up early the next morning. I wasn't excepting to be staying at Alana's house. I looked around and saw Jacob right beside me. I watched him sleep for like 10 minutes. No I'm not being a creep, he is just adorable when he sleeps. He stirred slightly in his sleep. He opened his eyes and smiled.

"Good morning, beautiful." He said. I smiled. Jacob knew I was really insecure about myself. When I first told him I was insecure about myself, he just looked at me and kept questioning me why I was insecure.

"Good morning. How did you sleep?" I asked him.

"I slept great knowing I had you right beside me." I smiled when he said that. He knew how to me happy. Whoever ended up being with him is going to be one lucky person. Jacob has come so far with his singing carrier. I was so proud of him.

I checked my phone seeing that I had a new Twitter notification. I unlocked my phone and looked at the tweet.

"@turtletopalana: @JacobWhitesides and @tbhlauren__ are so adorable. Glad they are friends again."

I decided to tweet Alana even though she is upstairs.

"@tbhlauren__: @turtletopalana go get me pizza."

Yeah. The kitchen is literally like 5 feet away, but ya know I'm way to lazy to move to go get it.

I went on my Instagram, snapchat, and facebook just to get the latest updates on things. I locked my phone and sent it down on the table beside me. I started closing my eyes when my phone went off. Ugh. It was another Twitter notification. Alana. Of course. I unlocked my phone and read what she tweeted me.

"@turtletopalana: @tbhlauren__ go get it yourself you lazy ass."

She can be a little brat sometimes. She is horrible in the morning.

"Lauren!" Jack basically screamed in my face.

"What the hell do you want?" I said and laughed.

"Guess what happened last night!" Jack said all happily.

"You guys fucked? Cause I heard moaning all last night." I said and smirked.

Jack started blushing a deep red. Alana came downstairs and looked at Jack and glared.

"We didn't have sex. I swear to god. My brother would kill me." Alana said. I knew she wasn't lying. Her brother would kill her. Her brother was Cameron Dallas. Yes the vine famous Cameron Dallas. Alana's sister, Sierra, would've probably grounded her some shit, but you never know with Sierra.

"I believe you over Jack. Trust me." I said

"No. Don't believe her! We fuc-" I cut him off.

"Save it Dail. You guys didn't have sex. I was joking around." I said and walked into the kitchen.

Jacob came into the kitchen and wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed my cheek. He always does this.

"Whatcha doing babe?" He asked me.

"Getting food because I'm hungry and fat." I said and giggled. Jacob looked at me angrily. He hated when I called myself fat. But it's true. I am.

"Stop Lauren. You aren't fat. You are perfect." Jacob said. He gets so mad at me if I ever say something mean about myself.

"Yes I am. Don't lie to me Jacob." I said and just stared at him.

"No you're not now stop. You're perfect Lauren. Please just believe it." Jacob said. I lifted up my shirt and looked at Jacob.

"Look at this!" I yelled at him. Jacob just shook his head and walked away. This is what he does. He just walks away and stops trying.

•Jacob's POV•

I wish Lauren would just believe me that she is perfect. Ever since I first saw her I thought she was perfect. I heard footsteps and looked over my shoulder. It was Lauren. She sat down beside me.

"I'm sorry for yelling at you." She said.

"It's fine. I just don't understand why you can't believe me that you are perfect the way you are." I said. She got up and started running up the stairs. Oh shit did I do something wrong? K
