Chapter 2 – The Next Day

Comments from the author: Thank you for the first four reviewers of my story. I'm glad you're all enjoying this so far. Here's the second chapter…

That night, Jake went to room. The family had already finished dinner and he was ready for bed. Jake just couldn't get his mind off Rose. He thought that maybe their relationship was more than just friends… He thought about this and fell asleep.

At school the next day, Jake, Trixie, and Spud were at Professor Rotwood's mythology class. Jake was telling them about his completed first date with Rose.

"And the best part was that nobody interrupted it, neither one of us had to run off somewhere, and we finally completed it." Jake said, seemingly happy. "Oh,I have never seen Jake this happy." Spud said.

Jake smiled. "Of course. How does completing a first date with someone you love not make you happy?" He asked. "Uh, I guess I never thought of that." Spud said.

"Well, at least Huntsgirl didn't slay you even after she found out about your identity." Trixie said. "Good point. I thought she'd hate me ever since I told her when we got stuck on thathole in Central Parka few days ago." Jake said.

"You got stuck on a hole?" Spud asked. "Spud, don't you remember what Jakey said?" Trixie asked. "No…" he replied. "He told us that yesterday, remember?" She asked. "Oh yeah." Spud realized.

Jake rolled his eyes as Professor Rotwood entered the classroom. The class was quiet and he started the exam.

After class, the three headed for lunch. "Hey Jake!" Rose called out when the three sat down. "Hi Rose." Jake replied with a grin. "Do you mind if I sit with you?" She asked. "Of course not." Jake said.

Rose smiled and sat down with the three. Jake seemed to ignore Trixie and Spud and talked endlessly with Rose. "You know, maybe we should start getting like a relationship or something." Spud said, watching Jake and Rose talk.

Trixie sighed. 'That will never happen.' She thought. After lunch that day, Jake and Rose were still talking endlessly as they headed for the same class. Trixie and Spud just followed.

"Ah, true love. They say it is never amazing." Spud said. Trixie ignored that and continued walking to science class.
