I woke up with a smile on my face as I remembered last night. It was one of the best nights I’ve had in a long time! I had eaten Chinese takeout with my two favorite people as we shared jokes and laughter. It couldn’t have been any better.
Standing up from my plush bed reluctantly, I tiptoed to the bathroom in hopes of not waking my mom.
I expected the worst when I sat down to do my toilet business but my face scrunched up in confusion when I noticed I hadn’t received Mother Nature’s gift.
Hmm. Weird. Oh well. Maybe it’ll come tomorrow.
I used the bathroom with the normal schedule then went to the closet to pick up some clothes.
The outfit of the day was a pair of white wash shorts and a v-neck floral top in a salmon color with strappy silver sandals.
It was an effortless outfit that I complimented with the necklace Jake had given me. I picked my hair up into a high ponytail placed my phone into my left back pocket. My bag was laying on the desk chair so I picked it up and slung it into place.
I almost forgot my cherry Chapstick until I saw it thrown on the floor. I must have dropped it. Picking it up, I uncapped it and coated my lips in its tingling cherry flavor.
I almost giggled aloud... Jacob really liked cherry Chapstick.
In the kitchen laid a small box of Krispy Kreme donuts my mom had bought yesterday. I took one and ate it with a glass of orange juice while I waited for Jake.
“Beep! Beep!” Shit! Couldn’t he text me and say he was outside? My mom would wake up and today she got in later than usual!
I rushed outside in hopes of avoiding another honk of the horn. That boy.
He got out of the car and met me halfway. Funny, he would usually wait for me inside.
“Damn. You look sexy, babe.” I scoffed out an unbelieving laugh as he looked at me elevator style. Jake picked me up in his arms.
“You look pretty today, baby.” I knew that would hurt his manly pride so I almost giggled as I said it. Since we were so close from our hug I got the satisfaction of seeing his eyes flare in anger.
“Shut up.” He faked anger but I knew he was annoyed.
I jumped up and hooked my legs around his waist and he held me in a tight and secure hold.
“You know I’m kidding. You look fine as hell, baby.” He gave me that beautiful and heart-stopping smile of his. I put both my hands at the sides of his face as I looked down at him, his features sparkling.
He puckered his lips and I laughed at him, my head moving back as I laughed. I placed a soft kiss on his puckered lips before he held my head in place to deepen our kiss.
A sweet and loving kiss from my boyfriend was all I needed to officially start my day.
“Take me to school, darlin’.” I said in a fake Marilyn Monroe accent. He let out his husky and humoring laugh. God! I loved that sound.
He walked me to the car and opened the passenger door, then slid me inside and closed it for me.
I let out a breath of happiness and in a few minutes we were at school.
***
School was the same as usual. Went to class, met our friends, and then left.
My boyfriend and I had gone to his house and made dinner to accompany the movie we would watch on his bed.
After that was done, I had called my mom and told her I would stay over at Jake’s to which she gladly agreed.
Jacob wrapped his arm around my waist as both of us lay on our sides in his lush bed.
“I love you, babe.” He slurred in his tired voice and his breath tingled the sensitive skin of my ear.
“I love you too, baby.” I snuggled closer into his body and slept once again in Jake’s arms.
His arms were my shelter and my haven. I hadn’t slept without the sanctuary of his arms ever since I discovered how protective they were.
***
I woke up at the sound of the alarm that came from Jake’s phone. He hadn’t changed positions but I had. My face was nestled against his chest, touching his bare and warm caramel skin.
I looked up at him and saw him fighting against sleep.
“Hey, Jakie. We’ve got school today.” I whispered in a voice as tired as I felt and he answered to me in a voice and sleepy as he looked.
“Morning, babe.” His silky voice was so husky and masculine as he spoke to me. Unwillingly, my insides tightened and I yearned for him. It was something I couldn’t help. Just how much I wish I could be completely his sometimes was overwhelming. But all I had to do was refrain from acting on it.
I wasn’t going be ready for intimacy even if I loved Jacob with all my being.
I pressed my lips gently to his and then nuzzled my head into the side of his neck.
“Can’t we just stay home today?” He asked.
“Nope,” I giggled. “People will assume things.”
“I don’t care.” He hugged me in a gut wrenching strength.
“Jake! Let’s get up!” I laughed.
“Fine.” He grunted and I pulled away from him and made my way to the bathroom.
When I took off my boxers- well Jacob’s- I searched to see if the thin cautionary pad had been stained.
I felt panic when I noticed it wasn’t. Come on, Evelyn! Menstruate!
Whatever... Nothing’s wrong when you’re a few days late. It happens to women all the time.
I used the bathroom to its full capacity and went to my boyfriend’s room. He was still sprawled in a cute position on his bed.
I fought the urge to giggle as I picked up a fallen pillow from the floor and whacked him across the head.
Then I laughed.
“What the-” Jacob looked at me before he started to shake in that sexy laughter of his.
“Up, sleepy head! Up!” I chuckled as he moved his hand in a dismissive motion and stood up from the bed.
“I hate you.” He frowned.
“You love me.” I smiled.
“True.” And with that he walked to the bathroom.
I looked for some clothes that belonged to me in his drawers. I had left them there on purpose a few days again because I knew I’d need them.
I quickly put the blouse on and then pulled up the jeans.
Hmm. Funny. The pants didn’t fit as loosely as they would normally. Maybe it was the laundry? Or... I could have gained some weight from all the junk I’ve been eating. I just knew that the pants weren’t like they usually were and that I hadn’t imagined it. I had never been a fan of too tight clothing.
Using the two possibilities as enough explanation, I slipped on the flip-flops and went to the kitchen.
I fixed two bowls of Frosted Flakes cereal and began eating mine.
Sheesh! Sometimes I could swear Jake is a girl! He takes forever!
“Before you start yelling, I’m walking down the hallway.” I giggled at his preciseness.
“Hold on! Let me check you out.” He laughed and stopped in his track as he struck a pose.
Jacob was wearing a red polo and blue denim jeans with some red and black Jordan’s and a silver watch. Okay, he looked fine!
“Wow. Jake you look scrumptious!” I smiled and he laughed at me, then bent down to kiss me.
“Thank you, honey. You look beautiful.” He earned himself a kiss from me and he rewarded me with his amazing smile.
I always felt so loved when he used words like that. Beautiful, gorgeous, precious, pretty... My heat fluttered when he did. I felt extremely lucky when he did because hot and sexy weren’t the only compliments he knew how to give. Jacob wasn’t like those guys that only used those two adjectives to describe a woman. I was glad that I was one of the women blessed to have a man like him in my life.
