The bell rings. Jack races out the school. He grabs his bike, screams a vague goodbye to Eugene and, again, races to his home. It's a 35 minute drive but today he's so pumped with adrenaline that everything goes fast and he's home in 15 minutes.
"I'm hoommeee !"
Jack drops his bag in his bedroom and walks through the house to see if anyone is actually there. As he enters the living room, he gets a weak hi from his brother. Jamie lays on the couch, still in his pj's, playing a videogame. Jack goes sitting next to him and watches what his brother is doing.
"Seriously, you little bro. You should do something productive my friend. Just look at me, I started today my first year of boringness !" Jack ruffles his hand through the messy hair of his brother.
Jamie and he always have been good friends. They like the same stuff and game for hours with each other. When Jamie was born, Jack first wasn't happy with that. It meant that most of the attention now went to the baby and Jack had to play by his self. But as soon as Jamie started to grow and started to walk and talk, it became less boring to Jack because now he was the big bro. They often went out to play with the other kids. They played Pirate and Rescue the princess a lot. He and Jamie were pirates who were going to steal a ship. Their friends played the captain and the sailors. The dog played the princess. Yes, Jack and Jamie's childhood was careless and free. They could do whatever they wanted and whenever. As soon they had to go to school, they realized that play time was over and that you had to learn something if you wanted to survive in this world. But the boys both had no problems with that because they are good and fast earners.
"Wanna play with me ?" Jamie asks his big brother.
He loved having a big brother, especially a brother like Jack. He was nice and kind and funny and a little physique but never too much. They sometimes wrestle around but they never hurt each other. That's because they know the limit and won't go over it.
The boys play until their mom comes home and makes dinner. She calls everybody and they sit around the table. Jack munches silently on his food. Shall I talk about today ? About what happened, or shall I wait until I'm sure it's true.
"So Jack, how was your day ? Did it go well ?" Jacks mum looks lovingly at her son and smiles.
"Ehm yeah, we met the new teacher for maths. It turned out to be a woman, and she was ok."
"That's great honey. I'm glad your first day of school went well." His mother never talks that much but when she do starts a conversation, it's mostly about how everyone is doing at school. Nothing more.
Jack didn't have the guts to tell his parents about his crush. He wasn't certain it was exactly true but he wouldn't tell them too early if it turned out not to be. Jamie was as usual talking about everything and rambling on like a waterfall. So Jack just silently ate his dinner and went out to meet Eugene.
"Hey bro. Ya ready ?" Jack stops his bike at Eugene's garage where his mountainbike is placed.
Eugene steps on his mountainbike and the two of them race off to town. They cross through the little streets and shops that are closed at this time. Only a snackbar is still open, the boys stop and buy a drink and a snack. They sit on a bench to rest and eat.
"Soooo… what did you think of today ?" Eugene asks, looking slightly through his eyes at Jack to see if there's any nervous response.
"Ehm, well I think today went pretty well. It was good to be back at school."
"And what did you think about the new teacher ?" Eugene knows exactly where he's going. He saw Jack staring at her like mad. I know you like her….
Jack feels busted. Of course his friend noticed him watching, he was too obvious, even she caught him staring, how embarrassing it was for him when she corrected him in front of the whole class.
"Yeahh, she's something. Dang, she caught my eyes immediately. But, you know, it's just, nothing special. I'm just really interested in her."
"Haha, yeah. As if I would believe that, I swear if you looked at her like you did any longer, your eyes would have popped out !" Eugene laughs hard and slaps Jack friendly on the shoulder.
"Come on man ! She's drop dead gorgeous and fucking young too. Every guy stared at her, it's hard not to."
Jack sighs, of course he noticed all the males of his class staring at the lady. How could they not ? Most of the teacher who teach maths aren't that dashing looking. Eugene already has a crush, and Jack knows it.
"But what did you think of that Rapunzel girl then ? She's quite exquisite too !"
"Hmmmm, yeah. She's beautiful. And I really like her haircut, it looks so fresh on her." Eugene feels himself sweeping away as he thinks of her again.
These days, beauty is one of the main reasons boys are dating girls. At Jack and Eugene's school, there are lots of pretty girls and good looking young men to date. But most of them are already taken so there is little choice left for the two friends. Though Jack has his own fangirl club, he isn't over the moon with that because most members of this club are these bitches who ditch every other female who even dared to touch him just with the tip of the finger. Whenever Jack passed the clan, as he nicknamed them, they would giggle like mad and call him names to his dismay. Jackieee, Jackieboy, Sweetiepie, Frostieeee, Ice King because his hair is as white as ice.
Jack maybe an attractive young man, he isn't a man who dates all the girls in the school and dumps them the day after they've had sex. Jack is looking for the one girl who can make him happy and the other way round. He's not perfect, he knows but he hopes that the girl who manages to steal his heart will love him for who he is, not for his looks.
Eugene finishes his milkshake and throws it in the bin. He checks the time and yawns.
"It's passed 10, I have to go home. Coming with me or are you stayin' ?"
"No, I'll come with you. I can't come late home too, tomorrow's school."
The boys slowly ride home, not talking much and thinking about life as it is. Their life's pretty good. At school, there are no problems. At home neither. Jack's parents don't have a high income so to help a hand, Jack works at Starbucks 2 times a schoolweek and in the weekends. He likes it there, making coffee for the customers and having little talks with them as they wait in line. Eugene works at McDonalds 3 times a schoolweek and in the weekends. They work almost next to each other, the only thing that separates the two shops is a large mall between them. Jack is saving up some of his money so that, later when he has enough, he can travel around the world. Visiting places he's never been, taking beautiful pictures and bring them out in a book. That's his dream, to be a photographer for National Geographic. Eugene wants to grow up to be a digital painting artist. He's very creative and likes drawing cartoons and stuff. Jack is also a good drawing artist, but he does it as a hobby.
As the time comes that the boys have to go separate roads, they say goodbye and disappear into the night. It's already quiet when Jack arrives at his home. The lights are all out, except for one in the living room. It's his mother, she's watching television as she notices her son has come home.
"Hey darling, had a good time with Eugene ?"
"Yup, hey mom. I'm tired, I think I'm gonna turn in for the night. Goodnight !"
Jack kisses his mom goodbye and walks to his bedroom. Did they had homework to do ? He forgot. As he changes into his nightclothes, he quick checks his computer. At Facebook, not much is going on. He has a few new friend invitations from people he didn't even know existed or knew him, so he ignores them. A few pictures of girls in bikini's posing for the camera grabs Jack's attention. He always likes girls in swimming suits, it shows off their perfectly shaped body. Hmmm, nothing interesting. After some time of surfing on the internet, Jack has an idea. He's going to doodle draw Ms. Winters ! He opens a special drawing software and takes out his tablet. After an hour of concentrated drawing, he has a nice looking result. Jack looks at the drawing, yep it's her. She's turned out beautifully, Jack sighs. Why did she have to be so cute ?! He realizes he's getting pretty tired so he closes off his computer and throws himself on his bed. As he thinks of his super hot maths teacher, he slowly dozes off into a nice pleasant dream about her.
SHE is walking on the beach, her back facing him. She slowly walks to the sea and lets the water touch her feet. Today is a sunny day, nowhere clouds to be seen and a cool breeze of wind runs through her hair. He walks behind her and runs his eyes up and down over her womanly features. She's wearing something nice, a bikini with over her bottoms a loose skirt tied in a knot on her left hip. On her head, she wears a big straw hat surrounded by a pink ribbon. The wind is playing with her loose, slightly curled hair as she walks along the tiny waves of the sea. She turns around and calls him.
"Jaaccckk, are you coming ?" She teases him and blows him an air kiss.
Jack smiles and runs up to her. He puts his hand around her shoulder and kisses her cheek. It's the softest cheek his lips have ever felt. She turns her head and smiles at him. Then she throws off her hat and her skirt and pushes playfully his muscular chest.
"Come on !" She shouts. "The first one who hits the water is the champion !"
Jack laughs and runs after her. Right before the water reaches his knees, he catches her and lifts her up in bridal style. She screams his name and laughs as they both fall into the sea, letting the water flow around their bodies, cooling them down at this awful hot summer day. At that moment, everything is perfect. Hmmmmmm….
Soooo, that was chapter three. I try to upload quick because I have a major story in mind and not much time left to write it down. The drawing Jack made of Elsa will be uploaded soon as the story's profile picture. Anyways, you're welcome to review, I'll always answer questions and hope you liked the story. It's my first fanfic so… :)
