On that happy note, we walked back to my house to say goodbye to Jamie and Pippa. I smiled at their joyful expressions. Man, this is too weird. I could never imagine Jamie being a father, I mean... It's Jamie Bennett we're talking about here. Aw, and Pippa a mother. It was enough to make me feel less frightened and worried. I felt happy. (Yay for being happy!). I've seen Jamie look extremely happy, but nothing compared to this. He was nervous and super happy at the same time. I was (even though I still thought the idea of them two... you know... was gross) very proud of him. (WAIT- I mean, I'm proud of him because he's going to be a dad, not because of... ew. You weird people...).
"Call over tomorrow Sophie, you haven't been down to our house in a while," Pippa said to me.
Well, I've been to your house, I just haven't gone in. I thought back to when Jack and I did the plan on Jamie so he'd be more fun. That was a good day. I also recall Jamie looking nervously back into his house. Maybe he didn't want to leave because he knew Pippa was pregnant and didn't want to leave her side? Oh, true love. I wish I could have that. (Excuse me, I am not turning into a love-struck teen, okay?).
"Sure thing," I promised.
"Oh, and Sophie," Jamie said just before he got into his car. I looked at him and he smiled. "Stay safe, okay?"
I smirked. He knew me too well. I nodded my head to him and watched until Sophie and Jack had vanished from view. I have to admit, today has been the most... interesting day since a very long time. I highly doubt anything was going to top this day for a very long time. Well, I hoped not anyway, I don't think I could handle another one like this so soon. I just hope Evil cuts me some slack for a little while and lets me be a teenager. Dear Evil, at least let me live until I'm eighteen, okay? I noticed Jack watch Jamie off with a smile on his face. I think he was just happy that Jamie wasn't completely pissed at him. Jamie was cool most of the time.
"Jack, dear, are you staying the night?" my mother asked. My mother asked. I looked at her shocked. Since when was she so cool with letting guys stay the night? Okay, before she never really knew, and the other night after The Notebook, she didn't technically know he was staying the night. All she knew then was that we were watching a movie. Hm, I wonder what Jack did to make her like him so much?
He must not of one much as even Jack looked a little shocked at her question. "Uh, if it's okay with you Ms Bennett," Jack replied politely.
"Of course it is," she smiled. Then she gave us both a pointed look. "As long as you two behave yourselves, of course." Okay, there's my mom. My so very embarrassing Mom. Ugh, who did she think I was? Edith? (DON'T GET ME WRONG! I love Edith, but we all know what she's like).
"Mom!" I exclaimed going red.
"What?" she asked. "One child of mine having a baby is enough. We don't-"
"Shut up!" I said, looking at her as my cheeks burned.
Jack just stood behind me laughing. "Man, I just love this family so much," he sighed with a chuckle. "No need to worry Ms Bennett, I'm a well behaved person."
"Ugh, you two!" I said, throwing my arms up, feeling both annoyed and amused at the same time. How was it possible to feel those two emotions together? Man, people were messing with my emotions right now. You don't mess with a girls emotions, got it? It makes us confused. Very confused. And did my mother get that something was going on between Jack and I? Is that why she asked him to stay the night and give us an embarrassing warning? Blah! Parents! Plus, it's not like I ever thought about that stuff. I'd rather not become a stereotypical teenager of this generation, thank you very much!
"You know you love us really," Jack said.
I laughed sarcastically. "Ya, you wish," I joked, before turning on my heel and going to my room. Jack joined me in seconds. "Do you mind, Frost? I need to get changed."
"Ya, sure go ahead," he told me. I gave him a look and he sighed. "Oh, you meant for me to leave so you can get changed? My bad. Sorry." He didn't sound too sorry. I waited until he was out of my room before changing into my pyjamas. Awkwardly passing my mirror, I looked in at it.
What did Jack like about me? Honestly, I couldn't see anything... interesting about myself. I had stupid messy hair, too big green eyes, and not so perfect skin. Who has perfect skin anyway? No matter what I did with my hair it was never neat. I always had that one long strand cutting across my eye. It kind of became my signature look so I always kept it that way. I just don't understand. I bet he only liked me because I was the only believer his age. That had to be it. If other girls around my age knew about him he wouldn't take a second look at me.
Gr! I'm now probably boring you to tears with my stupid insecurities. Sorry. But everybody has them.
Sighing, I opened the door.
Jack was just standing there.
Man, I loved everything about him. To me he was just perfect. No, not his looks, by the way. Just him. His cockiness, his goofiness, the way he was funny and nice. He was caring. He cared for me. I don't know, I just really love him.
"What's wrong?" He asked me. Oh god. I was staring, wasn't I? Whoops. That's sort of embarrassing.
"Nothing, just thinking," I finally replied. I wanted to ask him would he like me if other girls my age knew about him, but I knew the answer. He'd lie and say yes because he was too nice and never wanted to hurt anyone's feelings. Why did he have to be so nice? I knew the truth though. He wouldn't take a second glance at me it others believed in him. I'd just be that random girl. God. Was I trying to bring myself down or something? My brain really did need to shut up.
Jack walked into my room, and for the first time ever, there was an awkwardness. I didn't know what to say to him and I bet it was the same for him. Was it stupid that I wanted to say I love you? I know what you're thinking: but didn't you just become whatever we were? You see, at fifteen I began to think about boys. And then I began to think about Jack even though he never visited as much as he use to. It started out as small things but then it advanced to basically everything like how he always took care of me.
Like, one time I was twelve and I had just got my skateboard and I was practising. Of course, with practise comes the falls. I fell and hurt my knee pretty badly. Jack was there and carried my home. Of course, he left me at the front door because you know: parents. See, it was small things like that. So when he came here last week I felt stupidly brave and did hug him.
I realised with a pang that Jack was talking. "... Happy for them." Oh man, was he talking about Pippa and Jamie? More than likely. I mean, who else could he be happy for exactly?
"Oh- ya, me too!" I said, not very sure.
"Your Mom is actually so nice," Jack said grinning. "I'm guessing she likes me?"
"Oh ya, she likes any guy she thinks I might be dating," I blurted out without thinking. My cheeks went a little red. Jack laughed a little. "But, ya. She obviously likes you. You somehow become very mature around her."
"Would you rather I was my usual goofy self and have her not like me?" he laughed a little.
"It would be impossible not to like you," I once again blurted out without thinking. Wow, my mouth was on fire today. My brain seemed to not function very well lately. Agh. My brain didn't function very well around him, that's for sure. Damn you brain! Why can't you just cooperate with my nicely instead of making a fool out of myself? Gosh, I was going insane! I was talking to my brain- wait. To myself? Blah! Now I'm just confused!
"You're so cute when you blush," he said. I couldn't stop the smile appearing on my face. Of course a compliment from him would automatically make me feel better. I wonder what goes through his mind when I'm around him? Maybe like me he couldn't think straight. He looked at me and seemed deep in thought. He broke out of that after a second and began to say something. "I, I also want to tell you..." he looked awkwardly at me.
I wondered if it was the same thing I wanted to say to him but I was too afraid to in case I scared him off. I doubted it. I really doubt he felt that way about me. I doubt anyone has ever felt that way about me. I just wish I could say it, but I couldn't. I knew why, and he knew why. It's the same stupid reason we can't even date properly. His immortality. Why did I have to feel so scared all the time lately? I use to never be like this, ever. I was... I guess I was Reckless and Brave, just like the name of All Time Lows song. I'm not anything like that around Jack. Around him I'm stupid and awkward.
I needed to be reckless and brave again. Long live the reckless and the brave, right? I closed my eyes, feeling the words at the tip of my tongue. Now I just had to blurt them out. He still hadn't finished his sentence. He looked too awkward. Great, that's just how I felt right now. Okay, I can do this. Be stupidly brave.
"Jack, I-"
"I know. I feel the same way," he said, cutting me off midway. I opened my eyes. He looked completely miserable about this. Uh, were we talking about the same feelings? Okay, I am a little confused right now. Heck, when am I not confused? "I... I just can't say it. I don't think that you should either. It'll make this situation a whole lot worse."
Make it worse? Was he kidding me? This whole situation was about as perfect and as bad as it could ever get. I don't think it was going to get much worse from here on. "No, I will say it. Jack Frost, I love you. There, I don't see it getting any worse."
Wait ago, me. You just completely humiliated yourself. You should feel so proud of yourself! Maybe I just got a little too brave just there. I really needed to think about things before I just said them. Jack looked completely stunned. Okay, maybe it was a terrible idea to say it. Oh well, no going back now. At least now I won't regret not ever saying it while I had the chance (like it would make any bit of a difference). Still, at least I had some bit of courage to say it. I felt a small bit proud of myself. I've never, ever said that to a guy before. And even if I had, this would of been the first time I've meant it...
I kind of got a little distracted because Jack had begun to kiss me. Well, no complains there.
So, I'm guessing he really did feel that way for me? Uh, unless this was like the kiss of death or something, but I doubted it. His hands cupped my face while mine awkwardly just dangled at my side. After a minute, his hands were at my waist and mine at his sides. What? I don't know what to do with my hands! Ugh, I thought by now you'd know how awkward I was! Seriously, how could anyone not get that by now? If you looked awkward up in the dictionary this is what it would say:
Awkward [adjective]: Sophie Bennett.
Anyway, as usual I was getting a little distracted, and Jack was still kissing me.
Okay, my heart stopped a little. His kisses trailed away from my lips and down to my neck.
Oh god. What do I do? He's an 'eighteen' year old guy kissing my neck, it's clear what he wanted anyway. And no way was he getting that. Firstly, I'm only seventeen, I'm not some 'hoe'. Secondly, my mother and father were in the house and this would not be appropriate. Well, more importantly was the fact that I was only seventeen. I wasn't technically an adult (unless I was a wizard, of course. Then I would be one already) until I was eighteen which was next month. Even then, I've said it before: I'm waiting until marriage... more than likely anyway.
But it made my insides have mini explosions...
Okay, I needed to stop getting distracted. He's been kissing there for nearly two minutes now. Aw, man. That was going to leave a love bite, wasn't it? Ugh, great. Just great. Okay, I'm guessing by now you realise he wasn't just cutely kissing my neck. Ya, I know, gross.
I placed my hands on his chest and shoved him back a bit before he went a little overboard.
He looked a little dazed for a second and then slowly realised what he was doing. Okay, clearly somebody was too caught up in the moment. "Oh, Sophie. I..."
"No biggie," I said, with an embarrassed smile. My hand trailed up to my neck where he had been kissing it. Would it be awful if I said it felt sort of good...? I mean, for a second I was thinking about just letting him do whatever he was going to do. Maybe letting him watch The Notebook wasn't the greatest idea. Maybe he got too many ideas off of it. I wasn't going to complain though.
He took my hand away from my neck and held it in his. "It kind of is. I really am sorry, I don't know what came over me... I just..." he looked at me hopelessly. Man, it wasn't that big of a deal. Well, to me it wasn't, anyway. He must have felt embarrassed though. I mean, as mentioned before: this was new to us both.
"Jack, you're still in the mind of an eighteen year old guy," I reminded him. "It's fine, honestly. Do I look mad?" He shook his head, but still looked disgusted with himself.
"You know I wouldn't make you... you know," he said.
"I know," I agreed. "Don't fret, Jack. It's all good."
"I guess I should of just said I love you back," he chuckled slightly.
"It wouldn't have hurt," I smiled at him.
"Well, for all it's worth," he began, "Sophie Bennett, I love you too."
Meh, let it be. Sorry, it's late here and I have school here. It might have been better only I clicked select all and pressed cut instead of copy. So, this was my attempt of a redo. Apologies my readers. LADHALUDH! 6,000+ reads? WHOA! Ha, how does chapter nine have 300+ reads and chapter eight only over 200? Me no comprehend! XD Anyway, review for more guys! You are awesome! :D
