        I was sitting in the bed when Jacob walked into my room dressed to go outside. "Rose, Imma go hang with Josh and them at Chipotle, so I guess I'll be busy today," he said while strapping on his watch. 

        "Why are you going to Chipotle..." 

        "The boys are stupid. They wanna meet hot girls there." 

        "So you want to go too, hmm?" 

        "Do you want to come then? To keep an eye on me, while I keep my eyes on you the whole time?" 

        "Ew no, the girls that go to Chipotle irritate me for some reason. Whenever I go there, there's at least that one girl who's just..." 

        "Yea." He understood me before I even finished my sentence. God he's perfect. Why is he mine, um. I got out of bed to go into the washroom to brush my teeth. I looked at myself in the mirror and my hair was only a little messy, not like tangled up and knotty like you see in the movies. I tied my long dark brown hair and heard a knock on the door. I opened the door to see Jacob holding out his arms waiting for me to hug him. 

        "I'll call you sometime today to check on you, okay? Oh and remember to be safe... Don't want Darien... um..." 

        "Yea." 

        "Okay." I rushed into his arms to hug him and he hugged me tightly while kissing my forehead. 

        "Don't forget me," he said while backing up but holding my shoulders at the same time. 

        "I'll try my best to." He tickled my stomach as my punishment and I screamed, jumping into his arms. 

        "Thought you said you wanted to forget me?" 

        "Still trying, big boy." I walked back into the washroom and slammed it in his face and I could hear him laughing on the other side. I grabbed my toothbrush to wet it, and put toothpaste on it. I started brushing and my phone started to ring. Kris was trying to FaceTime me. I'm guessing Kate gave him my number so he could call me. I had to mentally debate whether or not to answer because I was bushing my teeth. My finger clicks the answer button and it says connecting. 

        "Whoa what the hell, Rose?" 

        "You called me at a bad time so be quiet." I kept brushing my teeth while setting my phone down somewhere and making it stand stably. 

        "Sorry, haha. So you want to come out for lunch with me and the squad?" 

        "Where ya'll going?" 

        "Jack Astors." 

        "I'm coming!" I spit into the sink while splashing water onto my face. 

        "Alright, meet us there at 12:00 PM." It was only 10:00 AM right now, so I had a lot of time until I had to go. At least I would be safe with people who knew how to fight. I gurgled water in my mouth a few times and spit into the sink. I washed my face with some Clearasil cream which worked most of the time, and dried my face with a towel after I was done. I ran out of the washroom to my closet to pick out an outfit. I couldn't decide what to wear, so I grabbed my blue and white Toronto Maple Leafs hockey jersey, and some white skinny jeans. By the time I finished getting ready after finding something to wear and brushing my teeth, it was about 10:45 AM. I straightened my hair even though it was straight, and let it out. I only straightened my hair because I loved having the ends look really straight. If I didn't straighten it, the ends would curve into some way I thought was really ugly. I did my eyes with eyeliner and mascara, and put on some basic EOS.
