Chapter 13:
A/N: I have decided to go more into Jensen and her story. Basically she is the main character now. Edward and Bella will still be in it of course, but you know what I mean(;)
~JENSEN POV~
I really thought a lot about what my mom said to me about the whole sex thing with Hayden. I had no idea about that one guy she was with when she was a teenager. But the difference is that Hayden wouldn't pressure me. He as already told me he is ready, but said that I am not obliguated to do anything. I am just scared because I don't know what is the right choice.
My parents obviously trust me to do the right thing seeing as they gave me a car. I know that Mom and Dad will stand by me through anything and I am greatful to Mom about putting me on the pill. After putting some thought into it I decided to just read and go to bed so I would be able to wake up for school the next morning.
I woke up to the sound of my alarm blaring in my ear. I shut it off and threw the pillow over my head. I just laid there for about 10 minutes until Dad brust through the door.
"Come on Jen! Get up! You are responsible for getting yourself and Conner to school on time."
"I know, Dad. Just close the door I will be out there in 20 minutes," I said grouchily.
"That's the spirit!" he said and I laughed tiredly and rolled out of bed.
I decided to wear some jean shorts and a pink and white stripped tee shirt. Apparently I am a lot like my mom when it came to clothes; I just threw on whatever I thought looked cute and wore it. I decided to straighten my hair and put on some eye liner with mascara. I put on the neclace that I wear everytday. It is the one that Hayden bought me for my 16th birthday. We have now been dating for a year and a half. After puttting lotion on my legs and throwing my black converse on I went out to the kitchen to eat breakfast. Conner was already out there with Mom and Dad. Conner and I got along just fine until he pissses me off. Like sometimes he will tell on me for the most random things and I will get scolded for it.
It was a little awkward with my mom and dad because I know that Mom told him about Hayden and I. I just ignored it and went to pour myself some cereal. As soon as I sat down my mom started to talk to me.
"So Jensen, I made you a doctor's appointment for today at 3. Do you think you can meet me there? It is right by Dad's office," she said and I felt my face go red because of what she is talking about.
"Yep," I said while coughing. "I will be there. I am going to drop Conner off at home first though."
"Okay," she said and smiled. I rolled my eyes.
"Why are you going to the doctors?" Conner asked and I wanted to shove a fork in his eye.
"It is none of your business," I said a little more sharply than intended. He snickered and looked away.
While we were driving to school I intentionally set the radio so that it was off. I had too much to think about to be distracted by music right now. Conner turned it up and I reached over to turn it off again and he looked at me with a confused look.
"We always listen to that morning talk show," he said and I smiled apologetically.
"Sorry I just have a lot on my mind right now. After school we can listen to whatever you want on the way home okay?"
"Kay," he said and let it drop. When we got to school I parked close to the building where I had my last class. I always did this so I wouldn't have to walk too far after school. Conner hopped out and I said, "Have a good day," and he smiled and said the same.
I got all of my stuff and locked the doors and walked over to Hayden's car. I saw him talking to his little brother while they were still sitting in his truck. His window was open so I went over to his side.
"Hey," I said and he turned and smiled and then gave me a kiss on the lips.
"And...I'm out," Brody, his little brother said, and I laughed.
"How was your night?" I asked. He was on the football team and they had their banquet last night.
"Good. We all had a good time. It was nice to have a guys night with them again," he said and then got out of the car to shut and lock it. He put his arm around me and began to walk us towards our group of friends.
"Well good. I am glad you had a good time," I said and he nodded.
"And how was yours?" he asked.
"It was interesting. I talked to my mom about some stuff and then read and went to bed," I said kind of telling him to not ask what it was. He got the hint and just stayed quiet while we walked up to our friends. There are 6 of us total. Kyla and Matthew are together as well as Derek and Rachel. We all hung out and ate lunch together. Tonight we are all thinking about going to the movies. I told them it would have to be around 6 at the earliest and they all asked why of course and I just waved them off. My best friend ever is Kyla. I can tell her anything and she won't say a word to anyone. But with Rachel on the other hand...not so much. I also like talking to my cousin Bethanie, but she is off at her first year of college so I don't see her as much anymore.
I said bye to everyone and we decided to all go to the movies later that night. I was waiting for Conner to come outside when I got a call from Bethanie.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Hey cuz! Just seeing how everything is going. I talked to your mom...," she said and I rolled my eyes.
"Of course you did," I said and then Conner got in the car. He buckled up and I put the car in drive.
"Well..your first time is a big deal. Or at least it should be."
"I know it is, Beth. I have been thinking a lot about it today and I have decided to do it. I have been constantly thinking and now I know for sure that I will have no regret whatever happens. But I have to go cause I am driving!"
"Okay. Well I just wanted to make sure you are okay. If you want to talk don't hesitate to call. I love you. Tell Conner I say hi," she said.
"Okay. Love ya, too. Bye," I said and hung up.
"Who was that?" Conner asked as I turned out of the parking lot.
"Bethanie. Hey I don't need to drive you anywhere tonight do I?"
"Not that I know of. Dad wants us to have a family night I think."
"Well that is not happening anymore. I have plans."
"You always have plans, Jen."
"Not always. But tonight my friends and I are going to the movies. We can have family day tomorrow."
"Whatever," he said and I smiled. When we turned into our house I dropped him off and started for the doctors office. I am a little nervous and Mom is going to be there which will make it a little uncomfortable.
"Hi," I said while getting out of my car and locking it to meet up with her on the sidewalk.
"Hey. You ready?"
"Yep," I said. All they did was wiegh me and take samples for tests. I have always been short and skinny so it was nothing new to have them comment on that. My mom told the doctor the reason for our visit and the doctor didn't even ask questions. He just wrote me up some birth control meds and we were off.
"Okay, I am going to drop these off at the pharmacy. It is 4:30 now. Do you want to get something to eat or something?" she asked and I shook my head.
"No. I am going out in a couple hours. Dinner and a movie with some friends."
"Oh, well. Okay. Your dad wanted..," she started and I cut her off.
"I know that now because Conner told me, but I didn't know when I made plans. I am sorry. I can still cancel if you want."
"No it is okay. What are you going to do?"
"Well, Hayden, Matthew, Derek, Kyla, Rachel and I are going to meet at the movies around 7."
"Oh, okay. Well I will see you at home then."
"Kay," I said and got into my car and started the engine. When I was about halfway home my mom beat me past a yellow light and I was greatful because Hayden called and I wanted to answer.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Hey babe I was just calling to see what you were doing for dinner. You know, before the movie?"
"Umm...well I have nothing planned. Why?"
"My mom wants to have you over. Is that okay? She is cooking dinner now and says she will be done in about an hour. Sound good?"
"Sure. I just gotta run home and drop all of my stuff off and then I will come over."
"Okay see you then. Bye," he said and I said the same and hung up.
When I got home I put all of my books away and put on some more lotion so I smell nice. I loved his parents and they adore me. When I was done doing last minute touches on my hair and make up I stopped by my moms room.
"Hey I am going to Hayden's for dinner and then we are going out. I should be home around 10. Is that okay?" I asked her.
"Sure. Please be safe sweetheart," she said and I rolled my eyes and told her goodbye and left for Hayden's.
When I got there I noticed Hayden's truck wasn't there so I just rang the doorbell and Brody answered. "Hey, come in," he said and I smiled and ruffled his hair as a joke Hayden and I play on him.
"Thanks," I said and he grumbled and rolled his eyes. I met Hayden's parents in the kitchen cooking food.
"Hey," I said upon entering.
"Oh hey sweetie," Carrie, his mom, said to me and gave me a hug.
"How are you?" I asked.
"Good. And you?"
"I have been pretty good. Hey Mr. Miller," I said to Hayden's dad.
"We have been through this and through this. I have known you for a year and a half! You can call me David."
"I know I just love hearing you say that," I said and he laughed. "Do you need any help Carrie?" I asked.
"Well it is always nice to have a female around. Sure, umm can you just stir the noodles? Sorry but you are only getting spghetti out of me tonight," she said.
"No worries I love it!" I said while starting to stir the noodles. I heard the front door open and close and I assumed Hayden was home. When he walked in I almost got flustered. I have never gotten used to how he looks. He is tall and thin, but muscular, with light shaggy brown hair and dark blue eyes like his mothers. He is wearing dark jeans with a dark blue tee shirt. I smiled back at him once he smiled at me.
"Hey Jen," he said and kissed my cheek. I smiled more warmly.
"Hi," I said and went back to the noodles.
We ate dinner in comfortable silence. I love hanging out with his family. It is always so easy going with no pressure. Maybe it is because I know them so well, but they are definantely people I could see in my life for a while. We got done eating dinner at about 7 and the others called and canceled our movie plans.
"Bummer," I said and he sighed and nodded.
"We could still go if you want to," he said and I shook my head.
"Nah, its okay."
"Okay, well then come with me I want to show you something," he said and I gave him a confused look as he lead me to his backyard.
When I got outside it was beautiful. The trees and poles were all lit up with white lights and there were rose pedals floating in the pool. I gave him another confused look and he smiled. I noticed a sign that said 'Follow the Rose Pedals.' And so I did. It went back to a pile of roses and balloons with a noted on top of it. I looked at it and started to read it.
Jensen,
How do you feel about prom this year?
Hayden
I had totally forgotten that we had prom this year so I was so suprized I smiled at the note and turned around and told him yes. He kissed me and I rested my head on his shoulder.
"You are so cheesy," I whispered in his ear and I felt him shake with laughter beneath me.
"Only for you babe," he said and I kissed him on the cheek and pulled away.
"So I am guessing the movie thing was never on?" I asked and he smiled and shook his head. I just laughed.
"Well now that I am totally suprized because that was so out of no where! How do you feel about ice cream?" I said and he nodded and took my hand to lead me to his car and then I thought of something.
"Umm..tongiht was sorta supposed to be family night at my house but I bailed. I think I should make it up to them. Do you mind if we go to my house?"
"No, thats fine. Besides, prom is in like 5 weeks so we got to start getting plans going."
"True," I said.
I drove myself while Hayden followed me back to my house. All of the balloons that I took were blocking my view of him, but I soon got to see him again. When I walked in with all of this my parents and brother looked confused.
"Ask him," I said pointing to Hayden behind me.
"I asked her to prom in a very unique way," he said and I laughed and yelled from my room.
"You mean chessy?"
"Whatever," he said and I just shook my head and walked back into the living room to sit on the couch next to Hayden.
We both told of how he did it and my mom was almost in tears and my dad and brother looked like they were bored. I smiled at their reactions.
When it got to around 10 I kissed Hayden good night and he went to bed to fall asleep.
