Chapter 1
Fate fell short this time,
Your smile fades in the summer,
Place your hand in mine,
I'll leave when I wanna…
Lately, Ruthie felt as if God had been shining down on her with all of his grace. She had finally gotten over her obsessive feelings for Martin and found somebody new. Somebody who she truly loved with all her heart, and she knew loved her back. His name was Jake. His family was new to Glenoak, and it was love at the very first moment they laid eyes on each other.
Unlike Lucy at the same age, Ruthie didn't agree to go out with Jake just for the sake of having a date, she saw something in him that she didn't see in any of the other guys she had dated. She wasn't sure what that "something" was but, she knew they were falling in love…and fast.
Jake was free-spirited and carefree. Quickly losing reputation as "the-new-quiet-skater-kid-sitting-alone-at-lunch", and becoming the class clown, problems that many teenagers have just didn't seem to phase him. He had a very laid back and relaxed attitude. That was one of the things Ruthie loved about him. His whacky sense of humor could make Ruthie laugh in even the dullest of moments.
When she was with Jake, she couldn't be happier. And when they were apart, she longed to be with him. She had dreams about them getting married, and nightmares about him leaving her. Jake felt the same about her. It wasn't long before Ruthie and Jake's relationship was taken to the next level…
"Are you ready?" Jake asked as he slowly lowered Ruthie down onto his bed. Deciding to skip the movie they had planned on going to see at the cinema, they were alone at Jake's house on a Friday night.
"It depends, do you have…" Ruthie stopped mid-sentence as Jake climbed on top of her and locked his lips with her's.
Jake pulled a condom out of his jean pocket and showed it to Ruthie.
Ruthie looked up and smiled as Jake's shaggy brown hair fell over his gorgeous deep blue eyes.
Should I really be doing this? After all of those talks about waiting until marriage to have sex, am I really going to go through with this? After how upset Mom and Dad were when Simon asked their permission to have premarital sex with Cecilia? After they found out he was having sex with Georgia? But, it's MY life, not THEIR'S.
Ruthie's eyes set on what was nestled in between the fingers of Jake's hand. She looked up at Jake,
"I've never been more ready." She said as she pulled his shirt off.
"I love you Ruthie."
"I love you too, Jake." Ruthie replied just as her and Jake disappeared underneath the childish rocket ship comforter on Jake's bed.
