Chapter 5 - Another Day at School
Comments from the author: Thanks again for the reviews from my last chapter. This is new chapter. I hope you all will enjoy it. I'm enjoying writing this story too... Well, the sixth chapter will be put up soon.
It was seven in the morning and Jake was up and getting ready for school. He then went downstairs and met his parents for breakfast.
'What a silent morning' Jake thought. He then decided not to mind it. Jake was even more worried about Rose. It's like somewhere inside him was pressuring him on telling Rose his secret. 'Not yet.' He decided to himself.
He then saw the school bus outside. "There's the bus. Bye mom! Bye Dad!" Jake said, leaving his house. 'Bye Jake!" His parents called.
Jake boarded to bus and remembered that he promised to save her a spot. So he did, placing his backpack on the empty seat next to him. After several minutes, Jake found Rose at the entrance of the bus.
"Hey Rose!" Jake said. "Hi Jake!' Rose waved. Jake took out his backpack and patted the empty seat. Rose sat down cautiously.
It took only ten minutes to get to school, so the two we talked the entire way.
When it was time to unload the bus, Jake and walked together until they reached Rose's locker. Jake's was not that far from her's so Jake walked to his locker.
"Hey dude!" Spud greeted. "Hey guys." Jake said. "Yo, did you tell Rose that you're a dragon yet?" Trixie asked. "Shh..." Jake said, telling Trixie to not say it at school. "Never say it loudly in a public place." Jake whispered. "Oops. My bad." Trixie said.
The bell rang and Jake, Trixie, and Spud headed for math class. 'After that is Professor Rotwood's mythology class. Man...' Jake thought.
Suddenly, Rose came up to Jake. He somehow forgot that they had math together.
"Hey Jake!" Rose said. "Hi Rose. Walk you to math class?" Jake asked. "Of course." Rose replied, smiling.
Jake still didn't forget that kiss the other night. He remembered it very well, as it was very special to him.
The five of them were finally in the front of the door for math class. They all entered and took their seats.
After school had finally ended, Jake and Rose walked together. "I'll catch up with you guys later!" Jake said. "See you, dude." Spud said.
It was still nice and cold outside. Jake and Rose once again went to Central Park.
"You know, it's really nice being with you Jake.' Rose said, smiling sweetly. "Thanks Rose. You too." Jake said.
Rose blushed.
After a few minutes, Jake and Rose heard something beep. It was Rose's pager. "Well, this was nice but I have to go... Bye Jake." Rose said, heading off.
'Just like our first date.' Jake thought, starting to feel alone.
FLASHBACK
Jake and Rose were outside in Central Park. They were on their first date.
Rose was amazed to see the ice sculpture of her. "Oh my gosh Jake! That's awesome!" Rose said, amazed. "Not as awesome as the real thing." Jake said.
The two leaned over and they were about to kiss. Until something beeped.
"Sorry Jake. I have to go. Well, bye!" Rose said, running off.
END FLASHBACK
Jake found himself alone on a bench in Central Park.
He sat on the bench for ten minutes then headed home. Jake, again sad, walked home. He was still thinking about Rose.
