Tied to a Dream
Chapter Six: Dinner and a Show
"You must be hungry." Jake said, getting up from his bed. "Why don't I make you some dinner?"
"I guess," Jude replied.
Jake smiled at her but she wasn't looking at him. He left the room and headed downstairs to the kitchen. Hmm, what should I make? Jake opened the cabinets and dug through everything, finally pulling out two cans of spaghetti o's. This shouldn't take too long. He opened one can and poured it into a bowl, placing it into the microwave. After starting the microwave, he opened the other can and poured it into a bowl.
"Hey," Jude said as she walked into the room. "Whatcha making?"
"Spaghetti."
"In the microwave?" she asked, eyeing the can.
"Fine," Jake responded. "Spaghetti o's."
"That's even better." Jude told him, walking towards him and hugging him. "Thank you."
Jake squeezed her tightly, letting go when the microwave beeped. He opened it and took out the bowl, placing it on the counter. Jake opened one of the drawers and took out a spoon, handing it to Jude.
"Close your eyes." Jude said.
"Huh?"
"Just do it," Jude insisted. "I have a surprise for you."
"Okay," Jake said, closing his eyes. He waited for a few seconds before feeling something strange on his head. His eyes shot open and he found Jude, handfuls of spaghetti o's, dropping them on his head. "You didn't."
"I so did." Jude laughed, grabbing some more cold spaghetti o's from the bowl and tossing them at Jake. Jake's jaw dropped, as he watched Jude break out in hysterics. He grabbed the bowl and took some in his hand, whipping them at Jude.
Jude stopped laughing as the food splashed her face, some gliding down her shirt, "Oh gross!"
Jake grabbed some more , depositing the pasta all over her hair. They stared at each other for a second before they both burst out laughing. Jude grabbed the bowl from his hands, finding it empty. Both eyes shot to the other bowl. Then both hands zoomed to the pasta, bringing out handfuls to throw at each other until it was all gone. And they were left standing there in silliness and laughter.
"I have more cans you know," Jake said, grabbing a punch of paper towels and handing them to her. "I'll get you back while your sleeping."
"We'll just have to see about that Jacob." Jude smirked, struggling to free the pasta from her hair. "Okay I feel gross."
"Well I'm going to shower." Jake said, grinning.
"Well so am I!" Jude said, skipping past him. She had left plenty of her clothes as his house anyway. "And first."
"No way!" Jake said, chasing after her. She ran inside the bathroom but when she slammed the door shut Jake was beside her. "Too quick for you."
"Well someone has to leave and it's not me." Jude affirmed, crossing her arms.
"Excuse you," Jake said, turning on the shower. "But I believe this to be my bathroom."
"Fine but if you don't leave I'm just going to have to shower in front of you," Jude warned. "So I'd take off."
"Don't threaten me with a good time." Jake said smiling.
"You're gross." Jude responded. "Plus there are rules. Ladies first."
Jake stood his ground, pulling off his shirt. He raised an eyebrow at her, welcoming the competition. Jude pulled off her sneakers and tossed them aside, raising an eyebrow back. Jake laughed quietly, doing the same. Jude shrugged, pulling off her shirt and throwing it on the toilet seat. Jake then pulled off his jeans, his socks coming off with them, standing there only in his boxers. Jude did the same.
They stood there silently for a long time, "It's you're turn." Jude said.
Jake slowly turned his head, staring at the door, "What the hell?"
"What?" Jude said, following his gaze. Suddenly, Jake dashed the other way, hopping into the shower and sliding the door shut.
"Hey! No fair!" Jude exclaimed, tapping on the door. She sighed in defeat, grabbing a clean towel and wrapping it around herself. She opened the door and walked out, an idea lighting up inside her head. Jude made her way upstairs and found her way into Jake's parents room. Risky idea Jude. Jude headed inside the master bathroom and closed the door.
This bathroom was a lot bigger and cleaner. Jude turned on the shower and let the water get hot, stripping the rest of her clothes off. She climbed inside the Jacuzzi tub and began washing the spaghetti o's from her body and hair. She showered quickly and escaped the parents bedroom, finding herself back in Jake's room. He wasn't there yet. I didn't know guys took such long showers.
Jude dried her body off with the towel and then opened one of Jake's drawers, the one he kept her stuff in. She pulled out some fresh clothes and put them on. Jude plopped on the bed and began towel drying her hair. A few minutes later Jake was back, completely dressed, sprayed with cologne, and hair gelled. So maybe he's quicker than I thought.
"Found the other bathroom, did you?" Jake asked, dropping on the bed beside her.
"No thanks to you." Jude said, rolling her eyes playfully.
"Jude?" Jake ran his hand over hers, their eyes locking. He came towards her, his eyes closing, until their lips met. Jude was a little shocked at first but returned the kiss vigorously. He climbed over her, straddling her, kissing her hard and running his hands through her wet hair. Jude pushed her body against his, kissing him until she could hardly breathe.
