Your pov:

As Jake and I were driving home from school, Jake wouldn't stop smiling and smirking at me cheekily.

"What?" I questioned with raised eyebrows as I stared at him with annoyance.

He laughed a little before turning his head slightly to me. "You..." he trailed off. "You like Justin don't you?" he questioned, a smirk still tugged on his lips.

I glared at him. "I do not like Justin, you dipshit."

"Sure you don't," he smirked.

"Jake?!" I exclaimed. "You do realise he's two years older than me right?"

"Pftt," he scoffed.
"Two years? You've got to be kidding me, y/n. That's nothing."

"I suppose. But it's better off if I like and date people in my year, Jake," I sighed as he shrugged, his lips pursing as his eyes focused on the road.

"Hey kiddos!" My dad grinned as Jake and I entered the house.

"Hi," I said blankly.

He frowned at me. "So, how was your first day chicken?"

"Good," I said, plonking myself on the lounge.

"New friends? Boys?"

"Dad, stop. Yes I made a new friend, her name is Abbi. This guy wouldn't stop following me everywhere, we all know he's a player, and let's just say his friends love me now," I smugly smiled.

"Well, sounds like a good first day of school then," he smiled as I nodded.

We had all just finished dinner and watched TV as a family in our new home. My eyes started growing heavy as I tried to focus on the tv.

"I'm going to bed," my voice rasped as I got up.

"Me too," Jake said before getting up after me.

I hugged mum and dad goodnight before heading upstairs towards my new bedroom.
I never really liked big houses, or big bedrooms.

They kind of scared me. Due to all of the horror movies I've watched, I noticed that in every horror movie there is a huge house, which made me feel like I'm in a horror movie, even though this house is newly built and modern.

"Goodnight sis," Jake cooed.

"Goodnight bro," I chuckled as he entered his bedroom.

I laid down on my bed, sleep soon taking over my body.

I woke up in the morning extremely happy, as it was a Friday.

I got up and changed into a white ripped denim skirt and a medium sized shirt with the logo 'OBEY'. I then chucked on my high top converse and headed towards my bathroom. I brushed my hair and left it out, as per usual. I put on some mascara and made my way downstairs.

"Morning," I grinned.

"Good morning!" Jake shouted, making me wince.

"Jeez! You don't have to shout."

"Guess who just got a date?" he spoke quietly as he smirked.

"You," I said as I rolled my eyes.

"Mhm," he winked.

Player.

"Morning mum and dad," I nodded at them.

"Hello darling," they said in unison.

My mum approached me, handing me my bacon and eggs.

"Thank you," I smiled at her thankfully.

"So... any boys?" she questioned as she sat beside me.

"N-"

"Yes," Jake said, cutting me off.

"Ooo, who?" my mum said, wriggling her eyebrows.

"No-"

"Joey Birlem and his mates," Jake said, once again cutting me off, resulting in me sending him a hard glare.

"We-"

"Oh and my friend Justin." Jake grinned.

"I do not like Justin like that, Jake. He's just good looking. Plus I'm not friends with Joey Birlem, I'm friends with his friends." I sighed as I let all of the information out.

Jake rolled his eyes at my small rant, while my mum and dad laughed.
