So ... Do you Come Here Often?

Well... Shit happens.

Chapter 3 (continued )

I hear a noise that startles me an wakes me from my dreamless sleep. I look at the clock and its only 12:00, I just went to sleep a couple hours ago. Who ever woke me up I gonna pay. No one wakes me up. No one.

I start to think about the noise I hear and a thought jumps to my head. What if there's a burglar in the house who's trying to kill me.Or even rob me. Maybe he just escaped from an insane asylum.

As I go to leave my room I take the closest thing to me to prepare myself for this situation. It just happens to be the book I am currently reading.

As I make my way to the staircase I check to see if Jamie is in his bed. I look in and theres no one there. Hmm l continue my way down the steps. The noise Is coming from the T.V. Room or as i like to call it 'the living room' As I break through the doorway I through the book blindly at whatever is in the room. I finally look around the room to see what is happening. The first thing that confronts me is that I see Jamie and Sam passed out on the floor. As my eyes travel upwards to the couch I see Jake sprawled across the couch surrounded my tissue and him crying his eyes out. The movie is playing and I can tell he is near the end. Jake looks startled by my presence and just stares blankly at me.

"What the hell is going on here" I whisper/yell at him.

"Umm nothing. I was just, uh ya know watching some movie." He starts to stutter back to me

"Ya is that way your eyes have turned into Niagara Falls"

"Uh I wasn't crying. I was ya know. Not crying.?" He asks questionably

I give him one of those 'ya right I totally believe you looks'.

I finally realize where my book has gone when Jake picks it up from the floor and looks it over. I obviously have good aim, since my book like almost hit the target. Almost.

"My Viking lover" he looks over at me as he reads the title. There's a picture of a mostly naked guy on it with some blonde chick who looks like she absolutely captivated by the hot guy. . "Wow I didn't know you where into erotica Delilah." He starts to look over and read what it says at the back of the book

"Grace is starting a new life as a lawyer... Or so she thought. As she is going to work one fine morning she manages to stumble into a different time. Thanks to her new trusty time machine. When she gets to this unknown time she meets the man (or should I say Viking) of her dreams.blah blah and a blah. Let me guess. She falls in love with him, they get married and than have lots of kids. I already know what's gonna happen."

I take the book right out of his hand."Jake no. Shut up cause i'v seen like ten of these books under your bed next to your porno magazines. You think we don't know there there, well we do."

I decide to clomp myself in jakes lap an watch the last ten minutes of the movie.

"Jake?" I say as I look at him

"Ya?

"Can I ask you something?"

"Uh ya" he slowly looks over at me "what is it?"

"Have you ever loved someone?"

"What do you mean? I love you guys and I love my mom"

I give him a look that means (be serious) in look language "No... I mean like really loved someone. Like you want to spend the rest of your life with that person. You would kill yourself if it meant that they could live."

"Yes I could actually say that. But I don't think they feel the same way" he says in a sad voice as he plays with the end of the blankets he's covered in.
