We finished dinner and now, I'm helping Jake clean up his room.

"Do you have a laundry basket?" I say kicking some clothes into a pile.
"Over there" he points by his giant tv. There is a white plastic laundry basket.
"We might need another one, with all these clothes"
Jake chuckles and tosses the laundry basket to me.
"I'm not touching the clothes with my bare hands! I don't know where your clothes have been. I'll put new sheets and stuff on your bed though. When was last time you changed your sheets?" I say examining a ketchup stain. At least I think it is ketchup.
"Um, Two months ago?"
"Wow, your family is rich, yet your room isn't clean"
"Well, my mom tells me to clean it and I just forget I guess and my mom won't let me go to any parties before I clean it"
"So, maybe it's a good thing I'm coming over, since school is starting up again" I smile "which means parties" I shake my hands
"Yeah.." Jake walks over to me and picks the pile of clothes of the ground and tosses it in the laundry basket. It fills the laundry basket up 3/4. I tear the sheets and blankets off the bed, leaving a bare mattress and two pillows. I toss the sheets in the laundry basket. The basket is heaping with dirty stuff now.
"Now, where's your laundry room?" I huff picking the basket up.
" here, let me take it" He grabs it from my hands and walks out the room. I follow him. I want to know where they're laundry room is. He goes to the end of the hall and opens up a wood laundry basket that is half as small as the plastic basket.
"That's not going to fit in there" I say peering over his shoulder.
Then I see. It's a laundry chute. It's basically a hole in the ground, leading to the laundry room. I look down the chute and see a basket leaning on another laundry chute. This is a three story building, so I'm guessing the laundry room is in the basement.
Jake tosses the clothes down. They fall in the other basket and a bell rings. In one second flat, Dalia comes rushing over to the basket and dumps the clothes in the other chute, looks up at us and smiles, then dashes somewhere else.
"What a system"
"Yup" Jake grins
"Time to finish your room"
"Kay"
"Where are some clean sheets?"
"Follow me" He directs me into a bathroom and opens up a closet on the right. He grabs some black sheets and two matching pillow cases and shuts the door.
"Blankets?"
He goes into his parents room and tells me to stay in the hall. I wait as he goes into a walk in closet. He comes out with a dark blue comforter. He tosses it in my arms and we go back into his room.
"Now, you finish up cleaning your clothes, I'll make your bed, and then we'll be done. Not that hard is it?" I smirk
"Yeah.. I guess"
"It is seriously just dirty clothes"
"Mmmm" Jake picks up more clothes and piles it in the laundry basket.
I grab the fitted sheet and pull it over the corners of the mattress. Then I take the other matching sheets and pull it over the bottom corners and tuck it in the sides of the mattress. Now I unfold the dark blue comforter and tuck it in the mattress like I did with the sheet. I grab the first pillow and a pillow case. I flap the pillow case ,hold it out and slip the pillow in. I bounce the pillow into the case and place it on the right side of the bed. I do the same with the other pillow, but put it on the left side.
I look around the room for Jake and can't find him anywhere. The floor is clean and has no clothes on it though. I flop onto the bed and my face sinks in the memory foam. The sheets smell like...
Cinnamon. That's Jakes signature smell now. I continue to smell the sheets as some hands wrap around my stomach, pulling me up onto my feet.
"We did it" Jake says spinning me to face me, still with a nice grip on my waist. He has a spark of excitement in his beautiful sky blue eyes.
"Yeah.." I whisper. It's kinda weird. Whenever a boy has a tight grip on my waist I usually end up whispering. It's a weird thing with me.
"Did I ever tell you all the boys will be fighting for you?" Jake grins in a cute way. Okay now I'm practically saying every boy is cute. Maybe I do act like a crazy girl who just loves to get attention. A coo-coo girl that is hungry,a girl who had a bad past, a girl with a new beginning. Let's make this one count. "And I hope I'm the lucky one"
"You might be" I whisper back and lift my hand up to bop his nose. He flinches when my finger hits his nose and he chuckles a deep adorable masculine chuckle. Minty breath sprawls out of his mouth as he chuckles and it just smells so good.
Before I can stop myself, I pull my arms up around his head and force his lips onto mine. I start kissing passionately and when he realizes what just happened, he starts kissing back. I start pulling his blonde hair and he moans while our lips are pressed up. There is heat radiating from both of us. It feels so nice and I just love it.
The door clicks open and we pull back a little to late and we hear a camera click and I pull him down onto the bed. I look over to the doorway. The person standing in the doorway is.... ___________________________ Heyo! Cliff hanger!! I hope you enjoyed this chapter! Who do you think it is? See you in the next chapter!! -Gabrielle
