2021-03-28 10:42:30I dressed Jake’s bruised knuckles and let him sleep on my bed. He kept murmuring the same things, but I just can’t get myself to believe him. Jake fell asleep quickly, and I took a warm shower before walking downstairs. Matt is making hot chocolate by the kitchen for the two of us. Clothes already changed as well.
“Jack went to sleep in the guest room,” he informed me while I took a sip of the warm drink. “I know I have no right to say anything about your relationship with Jake, but I think you should give him a chance to explain himself, Bobbie.”
I nodded my head and rubbed my temple. “Maybe,” it has been a long night.
I slept in my grandparent’s room and cried myself to sleep. It was the first time I entered their room since the accident and their mixed scent w

The three of us, Mel, Candice and I were shopping at the mall on Sunday. Well, they’re shopping and I’m just here for moral support and my expert opinion, note the sarcasm please.After having lunch, we walked around the mall again, hunting for the perfect waterproof mascara. The competition which is due next Friday is making my best friends a bit edgy. Must be the nerves. This is the first time they’ll be cheering without me, somehow responsible for giving them more pressure at my absence in the team.My foot is aching even though I was wearing my comfy Chuck Taylor. We ate a lot, strolled around the mall three times and ate some more.Ready to head home, we stopped by the restroom to freshen up a bit. We head inside the cubicle and glad that the restroom was empty even on a Sunday.

“I love you,” I breathe out the words I’ve longed to say. This is the reason seeing him kiss another girl broke me more than it should, the agony in my heart, for I love this boy. “I love you the moment you punch Chuck for asking me out. I love you since you were teasing me on my pink tutu, Jake.”He chuckled and the sound of his laughter made me feel my heart thumping with happiness inside my chest.“I love you, Bobbie. So damn much,” he pulled me to devour my mouth with a loving kiss. “I don’t want anyone kissing you again, Bee. I’ll kill anyone who takes what’s mine.”It’s my turn to giggle. I got my Jake back. The life in his tawny eyes is back.“Am I? Yours, Handsome?”

Jake was reading ‘Love & Friendship’ out loud. My cheeks are hurting from the wide stretch it had been on since he started acting in front of me. One hand holds the book and the other moves freely in the air. For a huge figure like him, it is a bit hilarious to see his face so focused on acting every line.He’s like a poet, with the aim of entertaining me with his speaking skills.He succeeded though; I haven’t laughed this much in a while. My tummy is hurting, I can’t feel my cheeks anymore and I have no strength to sit up from my bed anymore.“You wound me, my love,” Jake laid beside me, done with his poetic escapade. Nuzzling his face on my neck, I curled like a shrimp and buried my face in his hair.How I miss this boy. &

The day of the game came like a bliss. The entire gang is with me by the bleacher. As usual, Tina was under the protective arms of Jack while Matt brought his date. An annoying girl who couldn’t stop whining about why my cousin chose a high school football game instead of a movie house or her apartment. Matt always had bad luck with girls, that’s why his hair is longer now. He made a promise to himself to only cut his hair if he found a girl worth taking a trip to the barbershop.I waived at Mel and Candice who were eyeing Lee and Matt. Mel was glaring over the redhead Matt brought with him. She had the biggest crush on my cousin, but sadly, Matt only sees her as my friend.Cole also came with us as well, and said that if he couldn’t get me to dinner in their house, he’s willing to waste his time on a lousy football game.Whatever their reason for coming is, we’re here to support Jake, to avenge our relationship with Davis. There wa

We drove off that night to the beach house. It was only about an hour's drive from school and we prepared all our luggage before we went to the game.I was in my car with Candice, Mel, Matt and Jake. Matt is behind the wheels because he insisted he is older and he should be in charge. Mel took shotgun, and we didn’t protest in any way. I was sandwiched between Jake and Candice, who was in deep thoughts while staring at the night.“Can, what’s up?” I broke the comfortable silence in the car.“Nothing.”“That doesn’t look like nothing,” I caressed her crumpled forehead.She gave me a reassuring smile, pressing my hands, “we’re on vacation, Bobbie. I’ll tell

“Barbie,” Mel tried to walk up to me but ungraciously fell back on her seat. Her olive cheeks are painted with a crimson shade, evincing the effect of alcohol in her system. “Your turn to drink…” she motioned to the set of various drinks in shot glasses above the table.“Oh no. I’m not getting wasted like you,” I shake my head vigorously, seeing stars and comets above my head.“Don’t be such a pooper, Barbie,” Mel slurred, fumbling over each syllable she muttered. That resulted in rumbling laughter and I shook my head at my friend’s tipsiness, taking my seat beside Jake. my boyfriend’s protective arms wrapped around me instantly.“Fine,” I said, and Jack was ready to set the timer while Matt was ready to record everything on camera. “This is going to suck,” I muttered before chugging one drink at a time. Wincing with each burn of the alcohol down my throat. I s

I bit my bottom lip from nervousness, excitement and fear all at the same time. The first time Jake asked me to put a blindfold on was when he kissed me for the first time. It was pretty sweet.At that time, when he took my blindfold off, the sight of their pool filled with rose petals and him holding a bouquet of white daisies sealed my fate. I knew I was madly in love with him and I can’t escape this sweet arrogant boy anymore.Since then, this blindfold routine resulted in his thoughtful gestures that excited me.However, the last time was a prank. I ignored him for two weeks. It might sound as if it was a short period of time, but Jake and I are always together. If we were not in each other’s company, we’d talk on the phone wherever we are. Two weeks without talking is a history in our relationship. The cause of that cold treatment is because he brought me to a beehive. It is his fault why I hated stinging bees, yet he has that pet name for

“I want to make you mine.” Tilting my head to the side, I gaze up at him, finding his eyes as dark as a tree bark filled with life.“I love you, Jake,” I met his lips halfway, sealing my fate with a kiss.His lips gliding along mine, tasting and teasing. He is taking his time and I’m loving how gentle he is. One of my hands reached for his cheeks, my tongue savoring the taste of him like he does with me. Jake’s hands found the tie of my robe, exposing my skin to the chilly air of the room when the downy fabric unlatched. I shivered from cold and excitement, I’m not sure which. All I could focus on was Jake’s wandering hands. Tracing the hem of my bikini top with both of his hands. I gasped when he enveloped my twin peaks with his warm, kneading palms.“Do you know how long I’ve wanted to make you mine?” resting his hands on the underside of my bra clad breast, he pulled me into his lap, guiding me

~Bobbie~ ~Last night~ “I’m Adonis, and I’ll make you happy, Athena.” “Sorry, Bobbie,” Mel muttered beside me. “I can’t do this thing alone.” “It’s your bachelorette party, Mel,” I groaned and shivered when I felt a calloused hand grazing my knee. “You’ll be sorry for this later, Melissa,” I hissed, and again, the hands drew circles on my inner thigh, rising higher and higher. Mel was moaning beside me, and I could hear the girls giggling and laughing gingerly. Those same hands now held both of mine and guided it somewhere in front of me. My hands came against a warm solid skin - very toned skin must be his chest. He guided my hands down to his abs, and he has a good pack, 8 packs I counted. “Oh G

~Bobbie~ The girls were ready to go out, and so were the boys. We walked out of Mel’s room and found them already drinking and fooling around. These men cleaned up well, but my eyes were fixed on Jake, at least when he wasn’t looking at me. He was wearing a simple polo and fitted jeans, and I think they plan to go clubbing as well. “Bobbie,” I stiffened when I heard Jake’s voice so close to me. He sounded as if he already had too much to drink. With his hand gripping my arm, he dragged me to the patio, away from our friends. “What?” I snarled, hauling my arm from his grip. I’m still pissed about seeing him with Elise. My eyes locked with his but the look on his hues rendered me speechless. I was wearing a red cocktail sp

This scene would be an alternate reality if that rooftop episode didn’t happen. ;) ~Bobbie~ I kept punching and kicking until memories of Jake and that blond were out of my head. They look so cozy. “Poor dummy,” Priya’s voice brought me out of trance. I rolled my eyes. “I wish I don’t have feelings like this punching bag.” She takes a seat on the wooden chair while sipping her coffee. I’m in their place outside of town, and I didn’t realize that I’d confined to her. She once made it her life’s mission to make my life miserable, but here we are now. She listened to my story of weakness and stupidity. “You clearly both have feelings for each other. What’s holding you back, Bob

~Jake~ I told myself not to cry. I told myself crying makes me weak, and the fact that my friends teased me that entire day, saying that I was a crybaby, annoyed me to hell. I couldn’t help it. She was damn beautiful that day. I found it hard to believe how lucky I am to be waiting for her at the altar. The moment she entered the church holding Damien’s arm, wearing the dress as white as snow, it made her tanned skin stand out. That day is still vivid in my head. How that strapless gown hugged her upper body down to her waist as the skirt flowed while she walked to where I waited. It’s a magical moment. The images of us together slipped into my head like a fast-forward play of a movie. “Dad!” The sound of little balls of energy running down the stairs of our house pu

~Bobbie~ There are still people who believe in destiny. Some might find it funny and childish. I, for one and for a long time, forgot how much happiness believing in destiny brings. ~~ I remember when I first met Jake. That annoying boy who took amusement in watching me run away from that little beast in Nonna’s garden. It’s payback time. I’ve been suppressing the fit of giggle that wanted to erupt from my tummy just by looking at Jake’s paling cheeks. He’s been chewing on his lips since the plane took off. His glove-covered, slender fingers clutched mine so tight that I could feel my veins losing blood. Dressed in a blue and white freefly jumpsuit, Jake and I sat on the Ces

~Bobbie~“You’re blushing,” Damon commented while we swayed to the tune of Better Together by Jack Johnson.“No,” I denied.My brother, looking gorgeous in his custom-made gray suit and light blue dress shirt, chuckled heartily. My eyes narrowed to slits, gripping his hand tightly as we kept swaying through the song. There was something in his green eyes that gave me chills.“Damon,” I warned, “I know that look.”He brushed my threat off. “What look?”I huffed, “whatever you’re planning, stop it. This is a wedding.”Whenever he’d do something that

~Jake~The wedding was beautiful, but my eyes were fixed on Bobbie and not on the groom and bride. She never fails to enchant me with her beauty. She was wearing a simple light blue gown, matching the dress shirt I was wearing, the same theme with the entire entourage. It only differs in the shade.The pleated sleeveless dress, with the keyhole neckline, is teasing me with the little skin she’s flaunting. A part of her cleavage is showing, and I longed to run my fingers and lips over her creamy soft skin while watching her squirm under me.Damn. I’ve never wanted anyone as much as I wanted her. The way my dress pants tightened is proof of that.The ceremony was peaceful and filled with love and happiness for the newlyweds. To make this wedding much more intim

~Bobbie~Our friends were dead serious about locking Jake and me out here until morning. I don’t mind though. There was enough firewood to keep us warm through the night and there was another set of an actual tent with sleeping bags for our disposal.They prepared a lot of food for us as well. How thoughtful was that? I mentally laughed at their support for our love. There was even a note that said, ‘you two are not allowed inside the house in the morning unless you un-break your break up.’I have no doubt that this was Mel and Candice’s idea. They’re the only ones bold enough to get on my bad side this way. They knew I would never hate them, though.Jake and I got rid of the satin tent and its sparkling romantic lights, put up the tent we w
