I guess it's Fate

Chapter 15

Jack POV

I was right all along and no one believed me, Liz loves me. After Liz left my house yesterday and I texted all my friends about it and they called me gay for being a little too excited but they were happy for me. I had a thought that now that Liz and I are official, we should get all our friends together and properly introduce each other. The first time I met Liz's friends wasn't the best since I was just a good friend of hers and not her boyfriend. To this day, it will always bother me even though Liz and I are dating now.

I text Liz and tell her my idea which she agrees too. As I'm making my breakfast, my mum walks into the kitchen and kisses my cheek. "Good morning darling", she says to me. I look at her, confused. She is never this nice to me in the morning, she usually yells and tells me to get up off my ass. "What's wrong with you?", I ask. "Nothing. I just feel like today is going to be a good day", she says. "You're weird", I say to her and leave the kitchen with my breakfast. After I eat my breakfast, I sit on the couch and wait for 12 pm to come. I have never been so bored in my entire 17 years of life. I close my eyes and drift off to sleep until something heavy weighs me down. I open my eyes to come face to face with Liz. I jump back with a yelp and she laughs. "What are you doing? You scared the crap out of me", I say to her and she laughs again. "It's 10 in the morning, you shouldn't be sleeping", she says and pats my chest. "I'm bored so I just drifted off", I tell her.

"Well, you're in a mood", Liz says, rolling her eyes.

"I'm not".

"Yes, you are. I came to see you and you're mad that I scared you. I thought you going to happy that I'm here".

"I am happy your here".

"I didn't mean to scare you, you big baby but can a girl not see her boyfriend. I don't usually do this , you're always the one to come to my house. So I would appreciate you saying that you're happy to see me instead of complaining I scared you".

"I'm sorry, baby. I'm just tired today. Forgive me for my poor attitude".

"I don't know..."

"Please", I pout. Liz looks away with her hand on her chin as if she's thinking. "You'll have to earn the forgiveness", she grins. "I'll do anything", I say with a smile. "A few kisses will do", she says and leans towards me, her lips puckered. I hold her face in my hands and kiss her lips gently. I pull away, opening my eyes to see Liz's beautiful smile. "Am I forgiven now?", I ask Liz and she nods in response. "I can't stay mad at you", she whispers as we lay down on the couch. "Practice now because when we are married you are probably going to have to be mad at me. I'm a very stupid person so me as a husband will be the worst decision you ever made", I say with a laugh. Liz doesn't say anything so I poke her with my index finger, trying to get her attention. "What's wrong?", I ask her. "You have thought about our future?", she asks and I shrug. I haven't really thought about it that much. Do I see Liz being my wife in the future?, 100%. Do I want children?, of course. I brought up the married thing to be funny, I didn't mean to freak her out.

Liz probably thinks I'm ahead of time, thinking about married when we are only 17 years old. "Baby, I didn't mean to freak you out. I was just being funny, well trying to be funny", I tell her and she nods but I know it's still bothering her. "Liz, look at me", I say and hold her chin to move her face to look at me. "I do see us together in the future but I haven't thought about it fully. I know we are still young and you will not get any proposal surprises, I promise", I tell her. "Okay. I was just taken off guard with that joke, that's all", she says and I smile. To make her feel better, I kiss her lips, sweetly. She hugs me, tight, and sighs.

At 12 pm, Liz and I meet our friends at a restaurant where we are going to eat lunch. After the introduction, we sit down and order our meals. While waiting, everyone talks about their interests, subjects we a completing at school and our future preferences and Liz and I told them we are officially dating which they all agreed to so this is a good start. I knew we would all get along. Liz and I have very similar friendship groups and since we spend a lot of time with each other and them, why not merge us into one big group. It seems to working. Lunch is great and our talks are hilarious, another great idea by me. After an hour and a half of hanging out with all our friends, Liz and I go back to my place and sit on my couch. "I'm so tired", I say to Liz and she yawns. "Same", she says and leans on my chest. I place a blanket, that is hanging on the couch, over Liz and I and drift of to sleep. All I can hear is the soft sound of traffic outside and Liz's light snoring. It's so peaceful and I want it to stay like this forever.
