Short chapter :) Having too many feels about not being at VidCon to write :( Literally all my favourite YouTubers are there and I am not.
On the way to Jack and Finn's, Zoe manages to spill coffee on her new jacket and top. We had to make a 10 to 15 minute stop in a clothes store so she could buy a new shirt.
"Ugh, come on!" I groan.
"Stop your whining! I am not going to see those twins with a coffee stain on my shirt." Zoe replies and holds up yet another top to her chest. After a couple of other tops have been carefully judged, Zoe finally finds one.
"Thank you!" I say. By the time we get there, the muffin is cold, Zoe is complaining about how to get the coffee stain out of her jacket and I can hear what sounds like hammering coming from upstairs. Finn answers the doorbell.
"Hi!" He shouts, "Jack's upstairs in his room if you want to see him." He says to me. I take the muffin upstairs with me and leave my bag on a table in the hall. I knock on the door a couple of times and the hammering stops.
"Who is it?" Jack asks.
"Hey Jack, it's Belle. Mind if I come in?" I ask, reaching for the handle of the door.
"No! Wait!" He says, opening the door halfway. When he sees me he smiles so much I think it would hurt his muscles after a while. He leans down and kisses me. "Bella, you can't come in just yet..."
I shrug, "Okay then... Um just call out to me when you've finished. Oh, and this muffin's for you." I say giving him the muffin.
"Ooh! Muffin!" Jack says ecstatically, he bounces up and down a bit with the muffin in his hands and then blows me a kiss and shuts the door. I smile and go back downstairs where Finn is laughing and Zoe has a sad face on.
"Should I ask?" I say, my eyebrows turned down in concern.
"I told him about the shoe shop and the coffee spill." Zoe says, crossing her arms, which only makes Finn laugh more.
"Bella?" Jack shouts from upstairs about 10 minutes after Finn has collected himself and has stopped laughing.
"I'll be right back." I say to Zoe and go upstairs.
"Okay, okay, wait!" Jack exclaims and jumps in front of me. "Would you mind?" He says, holding up a bandanna. "Blindfold." He explains and I nod. "Okay, when I say 'go' take off the blindfold!" He tells me. Jack takes my hand and leads me forward. My other arm instinctively reaches out to feel where I am. I find the door frame and hold onto it. "Go." Jack whispers in my ear. I slip the bandanna off my eyes and my mouth falls open. In front of me is a wood work cubby house.
"Wow! Did you do this all yourself?!" I say, my eyes dart from the small window in the front to the small door. Jack nods and opens the door for me. I can't help smile as I crawl into the small space. It's width is longer than the length which would make it easy to carry through doors and outside. "It's so cute!" I exclaim, noticing cushions and rugs and a small bookshelf. "But why did you decide to make it all of a sudden?" I ask.
Jack sits down and smiles at me. "For you," He says, taking down a piece of paper taped to the wall next to the door. In fancy lettering is the word 'Arabella'. My mouth falls open again and I gasp.
"Jack..." I whisper. He lifts up a cushion and pulls out a small box. He gives the box to me and I open it to find a charm of the Eiffel Tower.
"To add to your charm bracelet." He says and takes out the small charm. I lift my wrist up so Jack can put the charm on for me. "I missed you... It was like 4 days but I missed you."
I smile and kiss him, wrapping my arms around his waist and falling back onto a cushion, laughing.
