ANNIE'S POV:
My heart is about to explode out of my chest. Foot steps echo behind the door. Jacob shields me with his body.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?! The footsteps continue down the hall and pass my bedroom door.

"We can't talk here it's to dange-" he stops when he catches my gaze.

"Uh I think it would be better if we get some ice cream. You like ice cream right? That would be great right? Right. Okay let's go.

Im so confused. What is going on?? ICECREAM? NOW? I just wanted to know who Lea was.

Unless...is that a flavor?? Haha yeah Annie they would TOTALLY name a flavor ice cream that and then act all panicky when you ask about it. I'm dumb sometimes.

This all escalated so quickly though. This is honestly as unrealistic as the fanfics I read.

Jacob pulls me out of the room and drags me down the stairs.

"Finn! I want to take Anne to the park to get some fresh air and just um...get to know each other. Is that cool with you...darling?" I see him cringe at the word darling. Not his best performance.

Finn responds with "ok" but in an unrecognizable tone.

Jacob motions me to follow him, and soon we walk out to the garage.

Jacob pushes a buttons and the garage opens, revealing 6 cars along with the limo.

What in the hell do they need six cars for?!

Shawn appears out of nowhere, looking at us with boredom.

"What car are you taking sir? I could pull it out for you. Do you need me to drive you anywhere?" Shawn Asks.

"Just pull it out for me yeah? But imma take Anne out."

"Of course sir"

I feel myself smile. I stop the urge to mock him. It's  funny how proper someone can act when their livelihood depends on it.

Jacob and I stand awkwardly as we wait for Shawn. Jacob won't look me in the eyes, making me suspicious.

"There you are sir."

I zone back in when I realize Shawn had pulled up the car.

He opens the door for me and smiles at me.

"Get back safely yeah?" He whispers to me.

I smile back at him, as blush rushed onto my face. I get in before he could see it though.

We pull out of the driveway. I swear I could see Finn's silhouette in my bedroom. This is all so weird ...
