i woke up in my bed tucked under my covers. i reach over to my night stand to grab my phone but i notice it isn't there but a note is. i rub my eyes reading the note.
brooklyn,
good morning! you fell asleep in the car last night. you looked so cute, i didn't want to wake you up. your phone is in your purse on your desk, call me babe.
jack xx
i smile widely getting up slowly to grab my phone. i change into sweats and a tank top calling jack.
"hey" he says happily
"hello" i say tiredly laying back in bed
"tired?"
"very. how did you get in last night?"
"door was unlocked. start locking your door" he mumbles
"fine" i giggle
"busy tonight?"
"nope, don't have to work today"
"i'm coming over today with a couple of my friends"
"who?"
"cameron and carter"
"sure come whenever. i'll probably be sleeping but the door is open"
"babe"
"yeah?" i ask confused
"start locking it"
"later. good night" i mumble hanging up tossing it on my chair closing my eyes once again.
"brooke. brooklyn" a deep voice whispers over me.
i open my eyes slowly looking up at a beautiful man hovered over me. "jack" i laugh "why are you on top of me?"
"you wouldn't wake up. my friends are in your living room using your netflix" he laughs softly rolling off of me sitting next to me. i sit up throwing my hair into a messy ponytail. i yawn standing up.
"let's go" i mumble walking out of my room.
"that was a good movie carter! what the hell?" a voice yells. i laugh softly.
"hi brooklyn!" they both scream running over to hug me. i wrap my arms around them both letting go after a while.
"hey" i giggle. jack comes from behind me grinning.
"this is cameron" he says pointing to a boy with his hair quiffed perfectly wearing a stussy shirt and a pair of sweats.
"this is carter" he introduces pointing to a boy wearing a beanie and a plain shirt with a pair of black nike sweats. i wave to them as they sit down on my couch.
"so brooklyn. why has jack been talking about you non stop for the past week or so?" cameron ask watching me sit down on the couch in between them. jack mutters something walking into the kitchen. i blush looking down at my lap.
"um i don't know" i say quietly
"shy one? nice jack" carter yells at him laughing loudly.
"brooke come here" jack shouts ignoring carter. i stand up walking over the kitchen. jack wraps his arms around my waist from behind rocking us side to side.
"you were passed out last night" he laughs quietly
"really?"
"gone. i had to carry you" he says walking us over to the panty. i grab a granola bar placing my free hand over his.
"what are we doing today?" he ask kissing my cheek lightly
"movie day?"
"sure but just me and you" he says in my ear walking us into the living room.
"okay love birds. we have a meeting soon. jack you staying?" carter ask once we come in.
"yeah i'll find a ride home" he says letting go and sitting down on the couch. i toss the wrapper of my bar on the table sitting down once cameron and carter get up.
"nice meeting you. see you beautiful" cameron says pulling me into a hug
"see ya brooke" carter says. i say bye to both walking them out.
"what an asshole, he knows i got you first" jack says loudly once i shut the door.
"huh?"
"cameron! he was calling you beautiful and flirting with you" he yells from his seat.
"jack" i mumble walking over to him. he doesn't reply breathing heavy. i sigh laying my head in his lap looking up at him with a smile. "your jealous" i say smuggly
"yeah i'm fucking jealous" he mutters under his breath looking down at me. his breathing dramatically slows down as he stares into my eyes for a while.
"hey don't worry about cameron! he isn't as hot as you" i wink playfully leaning up to kiss his cheek. he laughs pulling me up so i'm straddling his lap. i rest my head in between his neck and his shoulder blade. i wrap my arms around his neck as he locks his arms around my waist.
"you're perfect you know?" he says.
"i'm not even close" i mumble.
"don't ever say that" he hisses quietly.
"anger problems" i say. he sighs giving my waist a squeeze.
"let's start this movie day" he smiles. i crawl out of his arms smiling widely up at him.
i grab the remote changing it to my netflix.
"okay gbf or mean girls?" I ask looking over at jack
"None" he chuckles.
"alright gbf" i roll my eyes clicking 'play'.
I lean against jack as the movie starts. he wraps his arm around my shoulders loosely, drawing lazy circles into my arm as I laugh throughout the movie. after the movie finished, I look up to see jack fast asleep. "it's only 2pm" I laugh quietly, unwrapping his arm carefully. I place a pillow under his head moving his palm of his hand out of the way. i grab a piece of paper and write a quick note.
"left to get food from publix :) sweet dreams xx
-brooklyn"
i place the sticky note on the coffee table slipping on my pair of dirty black vans. I braid my hair quickly, picking up my purse and my phone. i jump in my car driving over to publix. i grab a cart, getting the usual stuff from around the store. while i was in the soda aisle, jack calls.
"hello?" I answer.
"baby." he mumbles tiredly with a deep raspy voice.
i smile widely at that word. "you fell asleep on me" I laugh placing a bottle of coke into my cart.
"sorry. are you still at publix?"
"yep, need anything?"
"no love, im good."
"see you when I get home?"
"see you" he sighs hanging up. I shove my phone into my purse, picking a few more things before checking out. I drive home carrying all five bags upstairs to my apartment.
"jack?" i ask opening the door.
"yeah in the living room!" he yells as i hear him stand up.
"hey" i smile once he arrives in the kitchen where i'm putting things away.
he doesn't reply opening up a can of beer. "it's barely five o'clock" I say confused. he shrugs sitting on the counter staring at me.
"what did i do?" i ask quietly.
"you tell me." he answers quickly. he holds up a razor blade with slight signs of dry blood. i grab it quickly from him.
"where did you find this?"
"your bathroom. brooklyn why are you doing this to yourself?" he ask sadly.
i toss the blade onto the counter, not even replying.
"babe" he sighs, moving to stand next to me.
"I'm sad" i mumble "i've always been depressed but there's old. can i explain another day?" i ask
"fine" he bites my lip, looking into my eyes. he takes my hand and moves it to his mouth slowly. he kisses the back. "you're beautiful" he says, dropping my hand. he leans down close to my face.
"can i kiss you?" he asks. I nod slowly, leaning forward. he connects our lips, kissing me passionately. i kiss back with the same passion, running my hands through his hair. i pull away after a while with a small smile.
