Chapter 10 Sage
Things have been going pretty good for me. I have this smile plastered on my face all day. I knew me and Jake shared a connection somehow now. When my dog died yesterday I couldn't take it anymore. So I crawled in this little niche in the school and I cried there. All of a sudden Jake appears and I was beyond embarrassed. But he didn't laugh or take pictures, he comforted me and my heart raced to the stars. Then I felt his fingers in mine and he stroked my hair. Then, when I had regained my self esteem I looked up at him and I swear we were inches away from each other then guess what??? A teacher appears and let's just say she was less then thrilled that we were cutting class and exhibiting PDA.
But he never let go of my hand. We walked down to the principal's office. When we were at the door he squeezed my hand a little and looked at me saying, it will be alright, don't worry.
But our fat old man of a principal did not look so thrilled. He just yelled and spat at us saying we would serve lunch detentions for a week for skipping class. He didn't mention the PDA thing so I though it was best not to bring it up. But I didn't care I was going 2 be at those detentions with him. When we got out of the principals office he said
"Well that went great."
"Ya I could see the spit flying out of his mouth." We both laughed.
"Look" I said, "I'm really sorry you got in trouble. It was my fault. If I wasn't crying then you wouldn't have skipped class. And.." Right then he stopped walking and turned to look at me. I stopped too, still a little confused.
"How many times are you going to blame yourself?" He asked. Then he grabbed my waist and moved me closer to him till our bodies were touching.
Then he said, with my face inches from his, back to the position we were in before and said "Cause I really hope you stop soon." His breath was hot and inviting on my cold face. And then right then in the middle of the hallway on Tuesday October 3, 2008, Jake Fiette and I actually kissed.
