Were Just Friends

I walk through the door and smile slightly, remembering the afternoon I just had with Jake. He is so mysterious and secretive, but so am I.

I sigh and walk into the kitchen. My stomach growls when I see a box of cereal on the counter. I bite my lip, trying to remember the last day I ate.

It's been about four days since I've eaten an entire meal. I grab the box of cereal and stare at it. I shake my head, telling myself that I'm not hungry.

I walk over to the cabinet and put the box of cereal on the top shelf, along with the other boxes of cereal.

Why do we have so much food when it's just my dad and I? Maybe he thinks I actually eat, he's never around to notice I never eat.

I pull out my phone and notice I have three new messages. I slide my phone to unlock it and see the messages from dad, Jake, and Cory.

I look at the clock on the wall and notice it's 5:30. My dad was suppose to be here at five.

I open his message first. 'Hey Bree..I'm sorry for getting so angry earlier, you just made me so worried, I didn't know what happened to you.'

I text him back saying: 'it's fine dad where are you?'

I open Jake's message next. 'How ya doin lil kitty?' I reply with just 'fine.'

My dad replies to my previous text saying: 'sorry sweetie I'm working with a co-worker and were going out to discuss it over dinner, be back around 11 tonight.' I sigh and reply with 'okay.'

I open my last message, from Cory.

'Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to just hang out some time..as friends.(:'

I sigh again and text back: 'yeah whenever, my dad isn't gonna be home tonight if you wanna come watch movies.' I press send and bite my lip, sort of regretting the text.

My phone beeps almost instantly.

'Is Jake gonna be there?' I read.

'No..? Should he be?' I reply kinda wondering if I should invite Jake.

'Sure..I guess.' Cory types back.

I send Jake a text telling him to come over. I text Cory with the details of how to get here.

I run upstairs and sling my bedroom door open. Oh my gosh! I look like a total wreck! My reflection showing my eyeliner running down my cheeks and my hair ruffled up.

I wipe my eyes with a cloth and apply fresh makeup. I run a brush through my hair and put it in a top knot bun.

I put on my moms hoodie and my favorite rainbow fuzzy shorts. I look in the mirror and sigh. This is as good as it gets I guess.

I hear tapping and turn my head around. Jake is at my window, does he not use the door like a normal person?

I walk over to the window. His attention is to the road and I decide to open the window he's leaned against.

He quickly topples backwards. We fall into the floor and I notice he is on top of me. I blush as our eyes meet, his minty breath tickling my cheek.

"I like laying on you." Jake announces with a wink, letting his dimples form at his cheeks.

I roll my eyes and jab my elbow in his chest, slightly, making him roll off of me. I stand up and fix my hair so it is no longer frizzy.

"Wow kitten you look hot in those shorts." I blush and shake my head, hearing a knock at the door. I grab Jakes arm and pull him down the stairs with me.

I open the door and there stands Cory wearing his leather jacket and dark wash jeans. I frown, remembering I didn't check out what Jake was wearing.

"Hey bro." Cory says, smiling towards Jake. They do those brotherly guy hand shake things and Cory hugs me.

"So uhm I'm gonna get popcorn for you guys and you two can pick out a movie and sit down on the couch." I say, pointing my finger towards the living room.

I pop some popcorn and pour the bag into a bowl. I walk to the living room and notice the boys at both ends of the couch, leaving me to sit in the middle. Great. Just great.

I sit the bowl on the coffee table and sit down. "We already put the movie in." Jake says, scooting close to me.

"Yeah, we're watching 'the conjuring'." Cory adds, scooting closer to me as well.

This is going to be an interesting night.

I personally ship Jake and Aubree because I think they are perfect together.
