•I'm Hooked • Why Don't We•

26 - "Zach is just jealous"

"I know. I love you too" leaning forward, Jonah plants a sweet kiss to my forehead.

"But I do need to get ready for bed" I sigh, closing my eyes as I lean into his embrace.

"Okay, okay. I'll stop distracting you now" he chuckles lowly, his hands dropping from me as I turn and grab the shirt from Jonah as I pull it over my head and begin getting rid of my jeans.

Grabbing it from the floor, I shuffle past Jonah and towards the door, my eyes swiftly scanning his body once more before I drop my jeans near my shirt and open the door, Jonah hot on my heels as I look over my shoulder to send him a small smile, which apparently was a mistake as I run face first into someone.

"Oww" stumbling back lightly, a hand grabs my wrist so I won't fall into Jonah completely as I look up at Corbyn, having him look down at me a little amusement radiating from him.
Raising his eyes from me to Jonah, I see his eyes change as his lips curl into a small smirk, his eyes jumping back to me.

"What?" I narrow my eyes at him.

"...Nothing" Corbyn glances back at Jonah before letting go of my wrist and walks past us towards his room.

"Well, what was that then?" Turning around to Jonah, I catch him with the slightest shade of a blush on his cheeks.

"The two of us, walking to the bathroom together. Both half naked..." scratching the back of his neck, he proceeds to bite down his lip as my eyes grow big for a moment, my cheeks heating up as well.

"Oh god" closing my eyes briefly, I pinch the bridge of my nose.

"Let them think whatever they want. We know better" he chuckles lightly as his hand slips in mine and he pulls me towards the bathroom.
A few giggles leave my lips as well, my fingers tangling up with his.

Closing the bathroom door behind us, we let go of each other again as I grab the make up wipes I store in one of the cupboards for emergencies like this.
Jonah rummages through all the cupboard as well as he pulls out his toothpaste.
Using the mirror, I make sure to get every inch on my face before I throw the wipe in the garbage can and lean closer to the sink, turning the water on and washing my face as well.
Turning the water off, I realise my mistake.

"Can you hand me a towel?" Turning to Jonah, I open my eyes in the slightest, the water dripping from my face and into my eyes, so I immediately close them again.

"You didn't really think this through, huh?" Hearing the smirk in his voice, I try to offer him an annoyed look without using my eyes.

"Can you be a good boyfriend and give me a towel. Please?" I pout slightly at the end, recieving some chuckles in return before he speaks up again.

"Aww. You're cute" feeling a tap to my nose, I briefly open one eye to look at him, immediately being met by more chuckles before he moves and reaches for the cabinet and pulls out a towel.

Reaching my hands out towards the towel, he's quick to pull it away and hold it above my head, a small whine leaving my lips.
"What do you want?"

Instead of answering me, he tilts his head down and plants a small kiss to my cheek, dropping the towel on my head as I shake my head at him, a smile on my lips before I pull the towel from my head and dry off my face.
Using the damp towel, I make sure to throw it at Jonah, just as a little revenge, his laugh quickly filling the room as he decides to keep brushing his teeth, offering me a small grin.
Grabbing my toothbrush as well, I steal the toothpaste from his side of the sink and put it on my toothbrush.

Brushing our teeth in silence, the both of us soon exit the bathroom again and make our way to his room, with me falling onto his bed again and immediatly getting comfy and pulling the blanket over my body as I snuggle close to it.

"You good?" Jonah asks, closing the door before he makes his way towards me, brushing a hand through his hair, my eyes dancing around his body and stopping by his messy hair as the fuzzy feeling returns, my smile resembling how unbelievably happy and lucky I am to call this guy my boyfriend. How did I deserve him?

"What are you thinking about?" Pulling me out of my thoughts, I am a little surprised when I see him crouching down in front of me.

Streching my hand out to him, I brush my fingers against his cheek, his hand quickly capturing mine seemingly not wanting me to pull away again.

"I don't understand how the hell I deserved you" wispering lowly, I feel him lean into my touch, his free hand reaching out to brush some hair out of my face and behind my ear.

"That's what I'm asking myself over and over" his tone matches mine as he pulls his hand away from me dropping the one over mine as well as he stands up and walks around the bed, the matress shifting as he lays down next to me, making me turn to my other side to look at him while he pulls the blanket over himself as well, his hand coming to rest on my hip.

"Why? I mean you are awesome. Your personality is awesome, you are so caring and funny and talented. Me? I'm just an awkward girl who can't even get into a college and on top of that I look like a fifteen year old" avoiding his eyes, I'd love to hit myself. Why did I think that was a good idea? I don't want him to feel forced to compliment me, heck I hate compliments in general.

"Cam, I'm not perfect or anything. I have my own troubles and you know that. I have anxiety and panic attacks all the time. Someone so 'unstable' or weird like me doesn't deserve someone like you. But you help me get through it. Thanks to you, I feel better and I know it's hard to believe but I know that you'll get what you are supposed to. Maybe life has another plan for you. I think that everything happens for a reason. And lastly, I told you before you are beautiful and you do not look like a fifteen year old. Cam, I love you. Don't treat yourself like that"

Daring to look at him, I find him with a clenched jaw, his eyes soften immediately as he sees me look at him.

"Thank you" sniffling a little, I cuddle close to him, his arms engulfing me protectively.

"Thank you" he mutters back before the two of us slowly drift into sleep, a smile present on my lips, just happy to have this boy by my side.
