15. Kiss And Forget Between Us

"It felt like love till the time it lasted. And now that it demands to be with me again, I feel nothing."

Claire's POV:

When I woke up, I was in a car. And Jake was there. He was staring at me. Over the few days we had known each other I have unusually grown closer to him too fast. I didn't think that it would do any harm though. It was not like he liked me or something, right?

"Where are we?"

He chuckled quietly. "We are at your house, of course."

"Oh," I sat up straight. "What time is it?"

"Past one in the morning," He answered, glancing at his watch. I nodded.

"Brooke...is she home safely?" I asked, suddenly remembering her.

"Yes. Brian dropped her off at her house. I called him," he said and I nodded again.

"Um...you should go home too. You must be tired."

"Yeah. I'll be leaving now," He nodded.

I opened the car door and stumbled out of the car. Why was I so clumsy around hot guys like Jake?

Jake got out of the car too, my bag in his hand.

"Thanks," I said, taking the bag from him.

I tugged at my bag which he was still holding. I looked up at him to see him staring at me.

"Um...Jake?"

He didn't respond. Slowly, very slowly, as if telling me by his movements, he leaned in and in a second our lips met. He pressed his lips to me softly. I could literally hear my heart pounding in my chest. I bet he could too.

I was too shocked to react. As his hands travelled to my waist, the bag in our hands dropped to the ground. He held me tightly against him but I didn't protest.

My own hands reached up to his neck and tangled his hair, pulling him closer to me.

Instantly, memories of Jesse burst in my mind. He used to kiss me like that. But there was something different about this kiss. A difference I couldn't point out.

I felt his tongue licking my lower lip, asking for permission. I was enjoying it more than I should.

I granted and his tongue slipped in my mouth. He tilted my head, deepening the kiss.

This felt so wrong, yet so right at the same time. I couldn't handle it. First Jesse, now Jake. I still hadn't moved on from Jesse, I knew I still loved him.

I loved him? I didn't know. I keep saying that but I really didn't know if I genuinely had feelings for him. God, this was so confusing.

I shouldn't have agreed to that stupid revenge plan of Brooke's. I shouldn't have helped her. I shouldn't have met Jesse at all in my life. I shouldn't have met Jake. I shouldn't have done anything.

I suddenly remembered that I was in the middle of a kiss with a hot guy. I was kissing him.

Holy crap. What was I doing? I couldn't do this to Jake. I thought he didn't have any feelings for me. And this was not good. He didn't deserve a slut like me. He was too good for me.
