Making Up

There's some mature stuff in this chapter so if you want to skip it just look for the *

I woke up to a good smell emanating from my nightstand and opened my eyes to see pancakes, strawberries, and orange juice on a tray next to me. I looked up, still half asleep, to Jayden standing there smiling at me. I raised my eyebrows in suspicion. "Jayden... what is this?"

"Breakfast. Why?" He said looking genuinely confused. I started to sit up and grabbed a strawberry from the tray. I bit into it, still looking at him skeptically.

"Is this what you think will win me over?" I said with a mouthful of strawberry.

"Kinda?"

"Not gonna happen, but it's a nice touch." He shook his head before leaving my room. I shook my head at him before devouring my food. It was surprisingly good, but it wasn't gonna fix what happened. I learned from my mistake of giving up to quickly, but now Jayden had to learn from his.

I got dressed quickly and walked out into the common room where everyone was sitting. "Morning y'all."

"Morning, Allison." Emily said cheerfully.

"Hey, Al." Kevin said. I went and sat next to Emily.

"Jayden's still trying to make up for what happened?" Emily asked me.

"Yup."

"You're not going to give him a hint as to what to do?"

"Absolutely not. This is his screw up. He has to learn how to fix it. I'm not his mommy. I can't hold his hand through every little thing."

"Poor kid will never figure it out."

"I have confidence in him. Eventually he'll figure it out. He knows me well."

"You seem very sure." Kev said.

"What's there not to be sure about? He'll try a few things and when he realizes the common factor, he'll get it."

"Whatever you say, Allison." Em said doubtfully. I just rolled my eyes and the two of them and waited for Jayden's next attempt.

I sat in my bed reading A Walk To Remember by Nicholas Sparks, my favorite book as well as my favorite movie. (It's a great novel and movie if you ever get a chance to read or watch) "Hey, Allison." Jayden said poking his head through my doorway. "Take this." He tossed a helmet on my bed and nodded his head towards the hallway. "Let's go for a ride."

"Jay—"

"Please?" I sighed heavily, put my book down, and picked up the helmet. I followed him out the door and walked with him to where Mentor's bike was waiting.

"Did Ji okay this?" I asked.

"Of course. I'm not stupid." I raised my eyebrows. "Shut up and get on." He said laughing. I jumped on the back of the bike and wrapped my arms around his waist. "Hold on."

Jay started to drive and I hugged tighter on to him being slightly frightened by the feeling of being on the motorcycle. "You scared, baby?!" He screamed over the sound of wind whipping by.

"Maybe a little!" I yelled back. He chuckled at me and continued to drive. We eventually reached a beautiful park on the outskirts of town. We both removed out helmets and hopped off the motorcycle. "What is this?"

"You'll see. Come with me." He held his hand out for me to take and I hesitated at first. "Allison, please?" I finally interlocked our fingers and followed him to a secluded area. It had been decorated with lilies, my favorite flower, and it had white benches with a white carpet rolled out, creating an aisle down the middle. At the front of everything, a big white archway with lilies sat perfectly decorated and placed. "You like it?"
