Chapter 5
I got out of my car and went to unlock the house. I walked in and went to the kitchen with Jake. I found a note from Charlie saying that he was fishing with Billy. We ate a snack of apple slices and peanut butter. After we ate I told Jacob that I was going to change, he said he would too.
I came out with my skinny jeans, 'free hugs' t-shirt, and grey leopard print pumps. Jake stood there with his mouth open.
"Umm….uh, you look great," he stuttered. I giggled and blushed. He was wearing a Beetles t-shirt and black jeans. I have to admit he looked good himself, but I pushed that thought away.
"Why don't we go to my room," I said,"Ok"
He followed me up the stairs to the 2nd floor and down the hall.
My room was Brown, pink, and green. I had a huge bed and a flat screen TV. Jacob was impressed by the TV, because he was basically drooling.
I walked over to my bed and sat down, after I got my school bag. Jake did the same, so we got out our homework and got started.
After we got done we put our books away, we started talking and we got to know each other. I found out his favorite color was green, he loved steak, he had to sisters, Rebecca and Rachel, who were married, and when Jake was born his mother died in labor.
"I'm sorry Jake."
"It's ok," He said, looking like he was going to cry. I pulled him into a hug and let him cry on my shoulder. My heart was aching because of his sadness. I noticed something weird about Jake. His skin was scorching! He pulled away but I grabbed his hand instead. He smiled as he looked at our hands.
I moved the topic fast that way he wouldn't get upset again.
"Jake do you want to watch a movie?"
"Sure."
I turned on The Last Song, and cuddled up next to Jake, because it was freezing. He responded by a smile and he wrapped his arms around me.
After the movie was over, Jake and I chatted a little more, until suddenly Jacob asked," Bella, will you be my girlfriend?"
I smiled and leaned in and kissed him passionately. Jacob seemed shocked but didn't pull away. We broke apart gasping for air.
"I take that as a yes." He said with a smile. I giggled and nodded, pulling him away from the bed and toward the kitchen. I started preparing chicken stir fry, with Jacob's arms around my waste.
Charlie came home 30 minutes later. Jake stayed for dinner, and we sat next to each other secretly holding hands under the table. When Charlie was done he said 'thank you' and went toward the TV. Jake said he had to leave then, and I walked him to the door.
