~Alice's P.O.V.~

I smiled at the text message. I headed to the bathroom to check myself. I applied just a bit of makeup, and fixed my hair. I head back to my nighstand, and disconnected the charger from my phone. I carried my phone downstairs with me, and plopped myself down on the sofa. I turn the tv on and surf through the channels hoping to find an interesting show that was on.

After a couple of minutes surfing, I heard a knock on my door. I ran over to it, and open the door with a smile that immediately droped.

"Um hi mom", I say with shock

She gave me a warm smile. I was panicking inside.

"Hi sweetie", she replied, in a calm tone

"Uh why did you get here so early", I ask with fear, but try my best to hide it.

"The job got done early today, so they let me go home early", she said while heading to the kitchen

How am I going to meet Jake? How am I going to tell my mom? How is she going to react? All these thoughts rush in my head like a landslide. Causing me to panic even more.

"Are you okay?", I hear my mom say. I look up to her, and she had her eyes set on me. Worried for me.

"Uh yeah",I lie, I then realized. Now that i'm with Jake. I need to start lying.

"Mom, i'm going to be in my room doing..homework", I lie once again, feeling guilty

"They gave you homework over the weekend?", She asked, while looking for something in the refrigrator

"Yeah, teacher these days", I say running up the stairs, getting extremely nervous

I enter my room, and shut the door behind me. I slide down my door, and try to think how i'm going to get away with this. I then picked my phone up and texted Jake.

Can you come through my window...please

After a couple of seconds, he replied

Why

I then thought of an answer

No time to explain

I get up immediately, and head to the bathroom to get ready. I throw on some jeans , and a blouse. I put my hair in nice braid. I fixed my makeup. I look up at the clock and it's been 10 min. I exit the bathroom

"Hello", I hear someone say, causing me to jump.

"Don't worry it's just me", I heard Jake chuckle. I look up, and immediately smile.

"I see your mom's here", he said with a grin, knowing why I wanted him to come through the window

"Oh yeah", I say with guilt, and look down

"You know we have to tell her sooner or later", he states while lifting my chin up

"Just not now", I say with a fake smile, but he then gives me a look that makes me feel guilty even more

"C'mon Jake", I say pulling him out the window, changing the subject

"Fine just this one time", he smiled

I saw him jump out of the window with ease, and I attempred to do the same. I landed the fall and began to feel adrenaline rushing in my veins.

"So this is how it feels like", I say looking at him

"Like what?", he asked

"Feeling bad?", I smiled, and he just chuckled at my comment

"What?", I giggled
