Chapter Thirteen

I woke up with a hand on my face and I was going to scream when I found out the hand was not mine. I pushed it away and looked around me to find Peyton next to me. Yeah, I remember, I told them to sleep over. She woke up and looked at me through her mid open eyes. "Good morning" she told me with her eyes closed.

"Good morning" I replied back as I got out of bed and opened the curtains. As soon as I opened it, I saw Jake laying on his bed with a pillow on his head. "The boys returned home? I asked rather to myself than to Peyton.

"Yeah, they left after you fell asleep" she replied standing too. "Can you give me some clothes to put on?" Peyton asked a bit sleepily. I could tell that she wasn't a morning person. I walked to my wardrobe and looked for a dress to give her. I gave her a beautiful small blue dress and gave her a towel.

"Go take a bath" I gestured her to my bathroom. She walked lazily to the bathroom and I chuckled at the sight in front of me. I bet Drake would like to see her like this. I looked for clothes and decided to wear my black tight jeans and a white tank top. After Peyton got her ass out of the bathroom, I stepped in and let the hot water cascade on my body.

I walked into the kitchen and saw Peyton, Emma and Shane sitting and already eating without even waiting for me. I sat on the counter and closed my eyes. I hate mornings for the simple reason that I hate to wake up. I'm not a morning person so try to understand me. My phone started ringing breaking me from my thoughts. I slide the answer tab without looking who the caller was.

"Hello?" I answered with a sleepy voice. Yeah, even after the bath I was feeling sleepy.

"Still sleeping?" I heard that sexy husky voice asked. Oh, Jake.

"No, having breakfast" I told me stealing Shane's juice as I always do.

"Can I come over?" he asked sounding bored. I nodded then after a few minutes I face palmed myself realizing that I was nodding on the phone. "Did you just nod to the phone?" he asked sounding amused and I shook my head, again face palm myself.

"No, I didn't" I said stubbornly. Someone knocked and I opened the door to find Jake holding his phone to his ear.

"Yeah you did" he still holding the phone to his ear.

"Hey, gonna talk to you later, a jerk just came" I told him teasingly as he end up the call. He smirked and bent to kiss my cheek.

"Hello to you too fake girlfriend" he greeted as he walked to the kitchen. We were all in the kitchen when the door opened and Drake and Nathan walked in as if they owned the place.

"What are we going to do today?" Nathan asked as he wrapped his arm over Emma's shoulder. Why can't I have a relationship that is easy as theirs.

"Let's go to the beach!" Emma chimed before squealing. We all nodded. I wasn't going to bring anything apart from my bikini so I sat on the counter looking at the road through the kitchen window. I don't know why but I felt a bit off today. My phone rang and lazily answered it without looking who the caller was. I don't know why but I was too damn lazy to look at a name before answering a call.

"Baby, I miss you" I heard Ryan slurred. What the fuck? It was only nine and he was drunk.

"You're drunk?" I asked still staring at the road. Then I got off the counter and walked to my room to look for a bikini for myself and Peyton.

"Don't know. Maybe. I went to a party last night" he slurred again in the phone. I rolled my eyes and sighed.

"Ryan, stop calling me" I told me as I jumped back on the counter waiting for the others to come.

"I can't! I love you!" he yelled to me. Jake walked in the kitchen with a bag containing clothes. Drake followed behind.

"You don't love me" I simply told him tired of his constant calling or texting me. Jake pulled the phone out of my phone catching me off guard.

"Stop calling her. Leave my girlfriend alone" Jake told him and listened to whatever Ryan was telling him. He put it on loud speaker seeing my confused expression.

"Don't you freaking touch her!" Ryan yelled and Jake rolled his eyes. I smiled at his reaction.

"Listen you asshole" Jake now said seriously. His voice sounded dangerous and so damn sexy. He wasn't the Jake that I've known. "She doesn't love you. She's mine now so live with it" Jake said slowly but menacingly. Oh, I felt butterfly form in my stomach when he said that I was his.

"She still loves me" Ryan slurred but Jake seemed to get bored so he end the call and gave me my phone back. I just gaped at the phone and a message followed. 'A surprise is waiting for you' It was from Ryan. I didn't show it to Jake who was now pissed off. I didn't take the message into consideration but right now I needed to cheer Jake out. Jake was standing in front of me. He was facing towards the window hence his back facing me. I smiled evilly and Drake quirked his eyebrows in confusing. I jumped on Jake's back and he quickly grabbed my legs to prevent me from falling.

"Smile" I command and he chuckled making my whole body vibrate along with his. I smiled knowing that I succeeded in making him smile. Suddenly I was whirled and now I was facing him with my legs crossed on his back. His face was a few inches from mine and our front was pressed hard against each other.

"I'm out of here before things get dirty" Drake chuckled as he walked out of the room with me and Jake not paying attention to him as we were lost in each other’s eyes. His hands were on my back so that I don't fall and he turned me and made me sat on the counter. My legs were still wrapped around his waist and I smiled innocently at him. He approached his face to mine and kissed my cheek. Why doesn't he kiss my lips. I was damn wanting him to kiss me. He touched my cheek and caressed it. My eyes closed under his touch. My arms were wrapped around his neck. He leant his head on my shoulder and breath in the crook of my neck making me shiver.

"You are so beautiful" He said slowly more to himself than to me. I smiled. I tightened my arms around him not wanting to let him go. I know that I can fall in love with him but that damn attraction I have for him is freaking strong.

"Thank you" I replied as I reluctantly pulled away from him. He kissed my nose as he rose his head to look at me.

"You're welcome sweetheart" he told me with a smile.

"Guys! Not in the Kitchen!" Shane whined blocking his eyes with his hands.

"We are not doing anything dumbass" I told Shane and Jake chuckled. Shane took his hands off his face and sighed in frustration.

"Why are your legs wrapped around him?" he whined as he looked at the floor.

"Cheering him up?" I told me and Jake burst out laughing. Shane yelled in frustration.

"We're leaving so do your things another time" Shane told us as he left the kitchen. Jake put me on the floor and took my hand in his. My heart was beating so fast. He pulled me towards the door and we walked towards his car.

"Wait! I have my own car" I told him looking at my car, confused seeing Shane, Drake, Peyton, Emma and Nathan sitting in my car.

"We'll be driving in mine and Shane is going to drive yours" He said opening the door like a gentleman so that I could sit in the passenger seat.

"Wanted to have some moment alone with me?" I asked teasingly as the others were whistling at Jake's gentleman act.

"Always want that" Jake winked as he entered the door. Shane started driving and we followed behind. I turned on the music and Wiggle by Jason Derulo burst through the speakers. A smile creep on my face and I started singing the lyrics aloud. Jake turned to look at me with a huge smile on his face.

"Wiggle! Wiggle! Wiggle!" Our voice burst one to make only one. We were singing out loud. His voice was not that bad. After the song, we burst out laughing.

"Your voice is simply awesome!" Jake told me excitedly as his eyes widened in speculation.

"Yours not that bad" I said taunting him. He smiled and chuckled as he looked outside.

"So tell me more about yourself" Jake asked looking at the road.

"What do you want to know?" I asked him casually looking at him and let me tell you that he was hot.

"Tell me more about that Ryan asshole" Jake asked now frowning. I sighed not wanting to talk about Ryan but sooner or later, I'll have to tell them.

"We've been together for two years and then everything just changed between us. At first he was great, loving and caring, then he changed, became a total jerk" I told him sincerely and looked away from him as my eyes were teary. I remember when one time he threw me against the wall and my head got a pretty good hit that it left a bruise. I lied to everyone telling them that I fell down the stairs.

"How did you find out that he was cheating on you?" he asked hesitantly. I smiled showing him that he could ask questions. Normally I wouldn't let people know more about me but he was someone easy to talk with.

"There was a party and Ryan didn't know that I was going" In fact, he didn't let me go. "And I was looking for the bathrooms but instead I walked in a room to find Ryan and my so called best friend on the bed" I told him looking at my car in front of us.

"Did you beat the crap out of him?" He asked teasingly to ease the atmosphere. I was weak before so no. I spend my day crying.

"No" I simply replied without any further details. He nodded and I smiled happy that he didn't ask more questions.

"I'm glad that you answered the questions" Jake told me with a smile. "I thought you were going to be damn difficult to answer the questions as it is a sensitive subject" He said as he parked his car next to mine. We all got out of the cars and walked to the beach.

"You're version of wiggle is better" Shane told us with a wicked smile as he burst out laughing. Were we that loud?
