Chapter Thirteen

Wednesday morning, Jack was already over. He was taking me to school, like he as been. We've hung out almost everyday since he asked me out. Honestly, I was really happy we were together, and my dad was happy too.

Speaking of my dad, he walked in my room last night and told me he was thinking about filing for a divorce with mom. I was proud of him, that he finally noticed how horrible she was.

"It's woman crush Wednesday." Jack smirked, as I finished applying my winged eyeliner. "Come look at the picture I posted."

Jack and I have kept our relationship on the down-low, except with our circle of friends. Like normal couples instantly post pictures of them kissing with their date, then post a paragraph in their bio's.

He posted one of the first ones we took in a bathroom. The one where you could barley see my face. I smiled and kissed him on the cheek and walked back to my mirror to finish my access makeup.

"Come on! We gotta go." He whined and wrapped his arm around my waist. I smiled and pulled out my phone to check the time and Jack tugged his head into my neck, I went ahead and took a picture of course.

"Okay, we can go now." I locked my phone and buried it in my purse and put it on my shoulder. I turned out my light and walked downstairs, followed by Jack. "Bye dad!"

We walked outside and into his car. We drove to school and talked about the fall dance. "Are we gonna go together?" He asked, I looked at him with 'really' face. "What?"

"If that's how you're gonna ask me, then l-o-l, no." I chuckled and looked back down at my phone, double tapping Jack's wcw.

We got to school and parked, getting out of the car walking to the group of friends. "Good morning, Jack." Sam smirked at me. I pushed him away.

"Morning, guys." I smiled. Jack came over and wrapped his arm across my shoulders and kissed my cheek, Bella pulled out a camera and snapped a picture of us.

"Fav." She looked at the picture, everyone stayed silent and stared at her, "What?"

"Why did you pull a random camera out of your bag?" Sam asked.

"And take a picture of us?" Jack asked.

"Oh, yeah! You're looking at the new president of the Year Book Photography club." She smiled bright, everyone congratulated her, but we got silent once we all heard that annoying voice.

"Jaaack." Ashley walked over holding a bow tie and looking down at her phone. I pulled away from Jack and stood next to Sam and Johnson. "Oh, good you're here. I was thinking this year for the dance, pink, like not a hot pink but a light, baby color pink."

"Whoa, what the hell are you talking about?"

"Us, the dance Friday. I'm already planning for the after party, your, um, friends can come, except Lolo,-"

"It's Layla, also know as my girlfriend, the one I'm planning to ask to the dance." Jack said, everyone around us got quiet and waited for Ashley to explode.

"YOU'RE DATING HER?!" Ashley screamed.

"Yeah, and I love that I'm dating her, she's not a bitch like you." Jack finished and the bell rang, he grabbed my hand, but Ashley caught my arm.

"Look here, Layla. I told you to stay away from him, and now you'll get what's coming to ya." She smirked and walked away. I rolled my eyes and walked off to my locker with Jack.

Before class, Jack kissed me and walked off, "See you later." He yelled.

I smiled and walked to class with Johnson. Johnson and I were becoming really good friends, to the point were I'd tell him, or ask him anything, "Jack?"

"Layla?"

"How soon is it to sleep with someone?" He choked on his apple juice, and laughed.

"Is the Layla Smith trying to have sex?" He laughed again.

"Kinda, I was thinking after the dance, with Jack of course." I shrugged and leaned against the classroom door frame. "I don't know, I want to do something with him."

"Are you doing this for him or you?"

"Both."

"Don't do anything for him unless he deserves it." Johnson playfully punch my shoulder and we walked in class.

Later going to gym, Bella ducked out of English fast, Alexis wasn't in her class, and Johnson was running down the hall trying to smack Alexis' ass. I shrugged and walked through the other doors to the locker room and got into my gym clothes and tennis shoes, threw my hair into a messy ponytail, and put everything in my locker.

The lights were off in the gym, I walked towards the table, then the lights flashed on, Jack, Johnson, Alexis, Sam, Bella, and other people in class were standing around Jack, around him were softballs and baseballs in a heart formation, Jack was holding a sign saying 'We'd be a homerun, if you were my hit to homecoming.'

I couldn't help but smile at how amazing he was for doing this, I shook my head yes and ran and hugged him, he smiled down towards me and kissed me.

I was ready for the dance now, and to be him. Everything was perfect.
