This one's shorter, but I think it's cute. xXAquaMangoXx prompted this one too!
Feelings,
The one thing you must always remember about Jerome Clarke, is that he has feelings too. He cares about his friends, though he won't admit it. He hides it and only brings it out for special occasions. Jerome is a good guy, very caring, though not many have seen his sweet, deep side. The only people who have seen this side of him is his best friend, Alfie, his sister, Poppy, and Mara Jeffray. Mara Jeffray was chosen; chosen out of the eighty plus teens on campus. She was plucked out of the rest, chosen to see the real Jerome. He chose her for a reason, many reasons really. One, he could trust her. No matter what he said to her, she had never repeated it to a single soul. The second thing, she was the nicest person he'd ever met. She always had something nice to say to Jerome. She would always give him good, well needed advice, when he needed it most. And third, the most important, he loves her. She is perfect in his eyes, flawless, absolutely stunning. He will look at her and see no fault. He will always love her, nothing could ever change that. He cares for many people, but Mara is, and always will be, on the top of the list; towering high, over all. And one of the ways Jerome's caring side can be proved, is seeing Mara Jeffray's face when he does something incredible for her, or anyone.
"Jerome! This is amazing! Thank you," Mara looked up from the tickets long enough to grin up at her boyfriend and wrap her arms around his torso, hugging him tightly.
"You're ever so welcome, Jeffray." The blonde chuckled. "Happy birthday,"
"Would you like to come? I don't know anyone who'd want to come. Oh wait, you don't like her writing, I guess you don't want to—"
"Mara," Jerome smirked, resting his hands on her shoulders, shutting her rambling off. "It's fine. I'd love to come; anything to be alone with you."
"Great! I'll meet you in the foyer tonight at seven." She smiled at him.
"Alright," Jerome nodded and Mara skipped off happily.
"…she is such a genius! When she was talking about everything society does to the world, it totally makes sense…" Mara continues her long drawl as she and Jerome stepped out of the conference building. She and Jerome had gone to one of her favorite author's lectures. Though Jerome didn't listen to half the lecture, being too busy watching Mara as her face lit up during the lecture, he had heard some of it. He had to agree with the woman in some places, but everyone had their own beliefs.
"So, you liked it?" Jerome smirks.
"Are you kidding? She was incredible!"
Jerome chuckles and helps her into the cab which was waiting at the curb.
When they got back to the house Mara was finished talking about the lecture. She and Jerome had had a small debate during the cab ride back. After paying the taxi driver, Jerome wraps his arms around Mara's waist, pulling her close to him. He doesn't say anything and neither does she, when he leans in and pecks her lightly on the lips. Mara lifted a hand and laced Jerome's perfect dirty-blonde locks between her fingers. She guides his lips back to hers, taking control.
And Jerome loved it when she did that.
Now, this would have been longer if I have ever been to a lecture... I don't think church or comedian shows count...
This is the last update tonight. :(
