A Teenager's Bucketlist

Chapter 2: Jake

Hey everyone !

I'm starting to feel like I'm gonna be able to finish this novel.

I'm on summer vacation so I have enough time to spare in writing this novel.

As always, I'm gonna make this brief.

I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did writing it and please vote for me!

Chapter 2: Jake

"Did you like it?" Jake asks.

"I did," I answered. "I really like movies with unique concept, so thank you for asking us to watch it."

"You're welcome," he replied, giving me a half-smirk much like Cory Monteith's. "And I'm happy you liked it."

"Enough cuddling love birds!" Brian shouted.

I swear every time I see him, he's looking more and more like an evil monster in my eyes. "Let's go grab some lunch!" He ordered.

"That's a great idea!" Carol echoed.

I can see the way that Carol looked at Brian. She really liked him.

Much like the look mom gave my dad when I was younger.

"Arren," Carol whispers, putting her hand to the side of her mouth."Is it okay if you go ride Jake's car on the way to Romano's? I have a feeling something good will happen if it's only me and Brian in the car." She asks giving me her ever-famous puppy eyed look.

"Sure," I said."Just be careful, I don't trust Brian."

"Will do mom," Carol reply. "Have fun with Jake!"

"Will do." I shouted as I walk towards Jake.

Jake opens the door of his Mustang.

"Sick car." I complimented.

"Thanks," He smiled. "It's a gift from my dad."

Jake turns on his radio setting it to 97.1, the only good station for teenagers.

"I drive pretty fast by the way, so make sure you put your seatbelt on. I don't want to pay for your hospital bills if you fly out the window" He laughs.

"Sure thing captain." I chuckle as I put the seatbelt on.

"Let's go then." He starts his car.

-----

When he said he drives pretty fast, he meant like really fast. Good thing there's no cops around or we're sure to get in trouble.

"We're here," he said. "Sorry if I made you dizzy or anything."

"No, I'm okay." I lied.

My stomach felt like they're being squeezed.

I can feel my brain throbbing really fast.

My heart felt like they're gonna explode.

It hurts.

"Are you sure?" He asks worryingly. "You don't look okay."

"I said I'm okay!" I shouted annoyingly.

"O-okay." He answered. I can see the look on his face, he looked really worried.

I wanted to apologize but I can't.

I can feel my body becoming weaker and weaker every step I take.

When I was about to step in the restaurant, I collapsed.
