When I woke I was still in Jack's arms. I smiled. I gently pushed open his arms and climbed out of bed, walking out the room to change into my school uniform and get ready.
I walked downstairs for breakfast. I had two slices of toast and a glass of orange juice. I washed up and walked back upstairs. Grabbed my bag and kissed the sleeping Jack. He flinched and then relaxed.
I walked back downstairs and scribbled a note for Jack to find, though I doubt he'll need it as he knows by now that I go to school. It's Thursday, almost the weekend. Tomorrow I have to babysit Harry again, which will be fun.
I grabbed my coat and headed out the door. I locked the door and ran to school, smiling all the way.
First lesson I had science, failed it by nearly blowing up the class by "accident." Of course I didn't get into trouble as the lesson was about making an explosion, so I got a B. I laughed at Jessica's face when I got it.
Then I had math, which was awfully boring.
Then there was break and somehow I managed to escape Jessica's grasp when some tripped her as she walked towards me. I ran behind the school, and she missed me completely.
English test where I got 60% which is good, I guess. Dad will probably say that it's not good enough and I'll have to keep practising.
Art making some clay thing, spent rest of the lesson trying to pull the clay blob that one of Jessica's "friends" threw at the back of my head, from my hair. I growled at her and they laughed. They better watch out.
Lunch where I was cornered and spilled on, again.
Then my last lesson was PE which was fun. Practised my double flip, I love sport. Miss likes my sequence, again. Which of course I rubbed into Jessica's face.
When I finally got out of school, I was exhausted. I trudged home and slammed the door, flopping myself onto the couch letting out a tired sigh. Jack skidded down the hall and leaped down the stairs to see what the commotion was.
"Hey beautiful!" he said happily, whilst rubbing my shoulders. I gave him a half-hearted smile. "You look awful!" he added.
"Thanks" I replied sarcastically.
"No no- I didn't mean it like that!" I began to laugh and he looked at me confused.
"I'm joking" I gave him a lopsided hug as he hugged me from behind. It was really awkward so he let go and hoped over the back of the couch to give me a proper hug. Then I remembered Harry.
"Jack…I got to babysit Harry, quick" I said hurriedly, grabbing Jack's hand as I ran to the door and pulled on my coat again. We walked/ran all the way to my aunts. We said our goodbyes and then she and Uncle Steve left.
Me and Jack walked in to be welcomed by a very excited Harry. He smile got bigger when he saw Jack and I noticed his gape again.
"Sophie…the tooth fairy did come!" he exclaimed as he jumped into my arms. For a five year old he was pretty light.
"Really…did you know that Jack is friends with the tooth fairy" he grinned and looked at him. He got back down and hopped around Jack, suddenly he bombarding Jack with questions.
"Wow wow…I also know Santa…the Easter bunny and the sandman too" Harry's grin grew bigger and I giggled. They went off and played cards again, Harry would ask the occasional question till asked something that made me go hot inside.
"Is Sophie your girlfriend?" he asked, with his lost tooth lisp. Jack chocked and looked at me and I shrugged trying to hide my cheeks which are heating up fast.
"Uhh- well…um I- I guess" he said shrugging yet grinning too. I sighed quickly waiting for Harry to star laughing but he didn't. I looked over to them as he high-fived Jack. I laughed at the ceiling and walked over.
"So what you guys playing?" I asked, trying to get off the subject. They both shrugged and looked at the different sets of cards; there was snap, or all the kings and queens set thingy. I never really played or know that set so I picked up the snap set and shook it to the boys.
They looked at each other then back at me and nodded. We played snap for so long I lost track of time, when I eventually looked at the clock it was 7. Harry's bed time.
"Bed time Harry" I said, getting a sigh from both boys. I laughed and tickled Harry. "come on or the tickle monster will be after you" he squealed before running upstairs to get ready for bed. I smiled at Jack and blew him a kiss as I walked up the stairs. He grinned and followed me.
We came up to see Harry waiting patiently for me. I smiled at him and turned on his night light and tucked him in, kissing him lightly on the forehead. He gave me a hug and then I left the room, closing the door behind me.
Me and Jack walked back down and he rested his head on my lap like the first time but the difference was that we got to kiss before someone interrupted.
There was a knock on the door and again we said goodbye…walked home…closed the door…and went to bed. Jack held me in his arms as I drifted off to sleep.
