A New Life

Chapter Eleven

I sit on the couch in the living room, my legs on Jasper's lap. We're watching Gravity Falls, but only because Jasper's two little six-year-old twin sisters are here. We have to babysit them. Jasper's parents are at a work trip for the weekend, and Bellamy and Clarke went on a mini vacation. It's about eight at night, and the girls are getting tired.

"Jasper," one of his little sisters, Blossom, whined, "I'm tired and Violet has fallen asleep."

"Ok," Jasper replied, getting up. He picks up Blossom, and I pick up Violet. "Let's get you to bed then, eh?" 

Blossom nods, before falling asleep on Jasper's shoulder. We walk upstairs to the guest room, where Blossom and Violet are sharing a bed. We set them down, tucking them in, before walking out and closing the door.

I wrap my arms around Jasper's neck, and kiss him briefly. Octavia makes gagging noises. "I chose the wrong time to get a glass of water." She says, pretending to puke. She heads to the kitchen, presumably to get a glass of water.

Jasper and I head back downstairs to watch a movie. "Thanks, Ally." He says, while I start The Sandlot." For letting Blossom and Violet stay here for the weekend."

"No problem." I say, sitting next to him. "You know, you can stay here tonight too." I say, smiling.

"If he does, just keep the noise down." Octavia says, eating a handful of M&Ms.

"Octavia!" I yell, throwing a pillow at her. My cheeks turn red.

She just laughs, and heads upstairs to her room.

I lean my head on Jasper's shoulder, and watch my favourite movie of all time. He kisses my head.

After the movie's over, Jasper stares at me. "What?" I ask, laughing.

"You're so beautiful." He says. Then his lips meet mine.

I kiss him back, and wrap my arms around his neck. It's like being in the lake all over again.

"Just keep the noise down!" Octavia says, placing a bowl in the sink. I roll my eyes.
