Chapter 4: "I broke up with her because I met you."
Tessa's POV
I woke up around 12 'o' clock very energetic for some reason. I took a shower brushed my teeth. I looked at my calendar and almost screeched. The school dance was coming up. The theme was a black and white event. Everyone had to wear either black or white. I only had about 2 weeks to find a dress. Wait a minute, what am I stressing for. I doubt someone will ask me. Well, maybe Seth will, he has been a lot nicer lately. Maybe he just wants to be friends, and besides, I'm sure he's going to take Sara.
I went downstairs, my mom was cooking. Mm, smells like bacon.
"Maman de matin, ce qui sont toi faisant?" (Morning mom, what are you making?)
"Quelques de lard et de fraise crêpes pas de beaucoup, juste. Ah, et avant que je m'oublie ont une date ce soir." (Not much, just some bacon and strawberry pancakes. Oh, and before I forget I've got a date tonight.)
"L'OH, et avec avec qui êtes vous allant?" (Oh, and with whom are you going with?)
"Avec Joshua, le type sur mon travail nous allons aller… attente par minute, ne sommes pas moi avons supposé pour être la mère?Je devrais te demander ceci." (With Joshua, the guy on my job we're going to go to…wait a minute, aren't I supposed to be the mother. I should be asking you this.)
"Vrai, mais à la différence de toi, je n'ai pas une date." (True, but unlike you, I don't have a date.)
"Celui qui mangent juste votre déjeuner avant que je." (Whatever just eat your breakfast before I do.)
When I finished my breakfast, my mom had went to work so she could finish up a few things. My maman, she is such a workaholic. I randomly remembered that I now had 12 days left with Roberto, (yes, I'm counting). My phone rang, I looked at the caller id and was surprised to see that it was Seth.
"Hello, Seth, is that you?"
"Yeah, um, I was wondering if you wanted to finish up our project today, we don't have much left to do." I totally forgot about that.
"Oh, yea, sure, are you coming to my house?"
"No, I was hoping you could come to mine. That isn't a problem is it; we could always do it tomorrow after school."
"No, um, today is perfect; I don't have anything else to do. I'll be over in a few." I was so excited; he wanted me to come to his house.
I hung up and went to put on my gray sweat pants and yellow shirt. It was a low 60 degrees today, but it wasn't too cold. Seth's house was about 15 minutes away, so I walked.
I had just left the house when I saw Paul walking up behind me. He saw me looking at him, so he walked a little faster to catch up with me.
"Hey, Tess, where are you heading?"
"Seth's house, we're gonna finish our project"
"Oh, well I'm heading there to, you don't mind if I walk with you do you?" I shook my head.
"No, not at all. So where are you coming from?"
"Emily's house, she needed help with something, and she saw me walk passed her window."
"Oh."
"Tess, after school tomorrow, I was going to head to Port Angeles. I have to get some stuff for Jacob. Do you mind coming with me?" Whoa, hold the phone, was he trying to ask me out. Maybe he isn't, he probably just wants some company. Shopping can be pretty boring by yourself. Well, I'm not doing anything tomorrow, it couldn't hurt, right?
"Well, I'm not doing anything, so I guess I could go. I just have to ask my mom, so I'll get back to you on that." I glanced at him for a brief second and saw that he looked a little smug.
"Well, if you can come, do you mind if I get your number so I can call you when I get to your house." Without thinking about what I was doing, I answered him.
"Okay." I took out a pen and paper and gave him my number. He gave me back a piece of paper.
"Here's my number, just in case you know." I couldn't help but smile. I looked up and saw that we were walking up to Seth's house door. I was going to knock, but Seth opened the door.
"Hey Tess, Paul, come on in." I walked in and saw a very hostile looking Leah on the couch.
"Hi Leah." She just glared at me and I laughed.
"Someone's having a bad day." I said.
"She's always having a bad day." I heard Paul say from behind me. I turned to see him looking at me in a very flirtatious way. Seth didn't notice because he was asking his sister something. I broke away from his gaze and Walked over to Seth.
"You ready to start?" He nodded, and we went to his room.
2 Hours Later
"I guess we're done." Seth said.
"Yup, well I have to get home; I didn't leave my mom a note telling her where I was. If she's home I will probably be in trouble." It was about 3:30 now.
"Oh, okay, can I walk you home?" My heart skipped a beat, two beats, no three. I was so happy.
"Yeah, sure, I don't mind." Leah was still downstairs, but Paul wasn't there, so I guess he probably left.
As we walked I felt Seth sneak an arm around my waste, then he pulled me closer to his side. It was a good thing he held me so close because, I probably would've melted.
"We're here." I didn't even notice, I was to engrossed in Seth. I opened the door.
"Oh, my mom isn't home. Oh yeah I forgot, she has a date tonight."
"So your mom isn't home." I nodded.
"Seth, you wanna come in?" I couldn't help it. He was standing right there, and the door was open, I had to.
"Sure." He smiled at me and walked in.
"Well, there's not much to do. Um, we could watch a movie."
"I don't mind, what do you have." I walked over to the movie shelf and he followed. I loved horror movies, so I took out Species. I showed him the case and he shrugged.
"I didn't think you were into scary stuff. Usually girls like that gooey romantic kind of stuff." Don't all guys assume that?
"No, I like gore and blood." He smiled and gestured to the TV. We sat down and turned on the movie.
Towards the end, there was a sex scene. I looked over at Seth and saw that he was staring at me. I was kind of uncomfortable. Who wouldn't be, I'm watching a movie with a sex scene while sitting next to the guy I would practically die for. So this was definitely a bit awkward.
Seth started to lean into me; I found my self leaning in too. Before I could even think about what I was doing, I felt his warm lips on mine. Then his arms snuck around my waste. We were lying down on the couch now. Seth was kissing on my neck, collarbone, and jaw line. Then I sat up.
"This is wrong Seth, you have a girlfriend." He looked at me a bit confused.
"I do, are you sure?" I looked at him like he was stupid.
"Yes, you do, you're dating Sara." Realization came to his face.
"Oh, Sara, right, I forgot about her. I broke up with her the day after you had come to start our project at my house." I was shocked
"You did, but why?" He smiled. Then he walked over placed his hands on my hips and kissed me deeply.
"I broke up with her because I met you." I was even more shocked. That was unexpected.
"That is very shocking. But, what's so special about me, that you broke up with her?" He grinned.
"Everything about you is special." He kissed me again. We were making out for about an hour I think before I decided we should stop.
"Um, Seth, I think we should stop."
"Why?" He moaned into my neck.
"Because, it's around 6 'o' clock, and my mom should be coming home from her date soon. I don't think she'll want to see her 14 year old daughter making out with some guy on her couch." He stopped kissing my neck and sighed.
"I guess you're right. Well, I was careful to not leave any hickies on you." I giggled.
"Same here, well, um, see you at school?"
"Yeah, see you at school." He kissed me one more time and then left. When I was sure he was far enough I yelled.
"Aaah, yes, I can't believe it. OH MY GOD." That felt good.
My mom came home about 15 minutes later, but I was in my room. That night, when I fell asleep, I had Seth filled dreams.
Sorry, I haven't updated in like centuries. But I'm back and well, hope you liked the chapter. I'm changing the stories rating to 'T'. I have a feeling Tess and Seth are going to be doing a lot of stuff in later chapters.
