Since I went to Jaxon’s and got his number him and I have sort of been non stop texting and its been pretty nice to say the least. Every time I would get a text back from him I couldn’t help but to smile about it if this doesn’t say that I like him then I don’t know what does.

Shepley was still at my house because I was going to ride him to school tomorrow, his parents are into it once again and I hate it when he is brought into the middle of it so I just told him to come stay with me. Besides, I am sure he likes it better here anyways.

“Do you think that if your mom ever became single I would have a chance?” I don’t have any idea where that came from, I looked away from my phone and stared at him like he was insane.

“No Shepley, you don’t. You will never.” This is not a conversation that I want to have. Like ever.

“Listen hear me out—“

“This is not happening man! This is also something that I don’t want to think about.” He grinned at me and then went back into his phone.

“You’re just scared that I would become your dad.” Does he ever think about the words that are coming out of his mouth before he opens it? At this point I just started to ignore him, this was such a stupid conversation and I was not about to entertain him any longer.

I shook my head at the guy and looked back down at my phone to see if I had any new messages from Jaxon, unfortunately I did not but there was one from Seanna and just seeing her name show up was making my stomach churn.

At one point there was some attraction towards her but that has changed now because of Jaxon. I felt so bad that night I left him for her and I still feel like complete shit for doing that to him, he didn’t seemed phased by it at all but then again this is from the same person who never talks about events that happen.

With all of this in mind I knew what I shouldn’t do and that was feed into Seanna anymore. I have no obligation toward her and I owe her nothing and even though this may be shitty I didn’t care about ignoring her.

‘My parents wanted me to ask you if you could come over tomorrow after school because they aren’t going to be here. You already know that I fought for my freedom but lost.’ His text made me laugh a little, he truly did hate how he wasn’t all the way independent.

‘You already know that I don’t mind. I am assuming you are riding home with me to your place.’ Tomorrow. I am going to say something to him tomorrow about all of this and regardless of how it pans out at least I got it off of my chest.

——

“Shouldn’t he be here by now Elliot?” Shepley was being so impatient about this even if Jaxon was taking a little long to get to my car.

“Shut up, I am the one riding him home not you.” He groaned and then slouched in the seat. I wonder about him sometimes.

“Wait, there he is.” I took my attention off of him and looked in the direction he had pointed to. This is why he was taking forever, he was talking to Miles again.

It seems like everyday after school he stops and talks to him and it drives me insane, I hate it so much. Miles made Jaxon laugh and this made my blood boil. Why was he laughing so much? I can be funny.

I wanted to go over there and grab him by his arm and put his ass in my car but I knew that that was something I could not do to him.

Shepley was saying something to me but I didn’t hear a single thing he had said my attention was completely on Jaxon. Miles handed him something before walking away from him, Jaxon looked down at it and then started towards my car.

What did he hand him? I honestly feel like his mother right now.

“Sorry about that guys.” He said as he got in the back seat of my car. I didn’t say anything for a moment because I didn’t want my tone to come off as aggravated or anything.

“What did he have to say?” Shepley said before I could say anything to him. I looked over at him and he winked back at me, wait huh?

“Oh nothing really. He invited me to this party that he is throwing.” Miles invited Jaxon? What does that even mean?

“Wha—“

“Alright this train is leaving, seatbelts please.” I honestly did not want to know anything else about what was said so I just shut it all down for my own well being.

This was none of my business and I knew that if he told me anything more about it it would make me go crazy.

The car ride to Shepleys house consisted of him just talking about how during gym he started talking to some new girl or something like that, I wasn’t listening to him. Whenever I have something on my mind I do my best to ignore him.

After dropping him off my heart began beating so much faster and the butterflies in my stomach were really picking up the speed in my stomach. I was thinking about how I was going to word what I was going to say to Jaxon.

I don’t even care about Miles right now because there is something more important on my mind and the closer we got to our destination the more I wanted to pass out.

“Sorry for making you wait Elliot...” He said it so softly and so innocent that it sent shivers down my spine. I glanced at him for a moment to see that he was looking at me.

Damn those honey eyes they make me forget about everything even if it is for a moment.

“Don’t worry about it Jax. I wasn’t in no hurry, that was all Shep.” Okay so that may have been a little lie but whatever I didn’t want him to think I was mad at him or anything when I wasn’t.

Of course I didn’t want him talking to Miles but that was the least of my concerns right now because I was pulling into my driveway, which meant we were about to walk to his house together.

I got out of my car as quick as I could and then grabbed my bag and began walking with him across the street something like this has never been so hard for me so I really shouldn’t be making a big deal out of it and causing myself to panic like this.

“Are you okay?” Jax asked me as he started to unlock his front door. “You seem like you are about to throw up.” I probably do look so pale right now.

“Yeah I’m good man.” He slowly nodded and then opened his door so that the two of us could walk inside.

“Let’s go to my room.” I didn’t say anything to him I just followed him down there.

When we reached the bottom of the steps he tossed his backpack to a corner of his room and the got on to his bed. I wasn’t quite sure what I was wanting to do so I just followed what he did and then sat right next to him.

It was quiet for a moment so I am almost certain that he could hear my heartbeat acting like a fool. It wasn’t like this situation we were in was awkward or anything it was just that I was doing my best to not die from being so nervous.

I looked over at him to see that he was looking up at the ceiling like he was in deep thought or something. His arms were behind his head like a pillow, not only did he look comfortable he also looked good.

I couldn’t think like that right this second, this was my chance to say something.

“Jax.” God I want to throw up.

“Yeah?” He said as he turned his head to face me.

“Listen I have to be honest with you.” He was staring a hole through me so I had to look away from him. If I continued to look at him as I talked I was not going to be able to get a sentence out.

So I sat on the edge of the bed and looked everywhere else besides at him.

“I don’t understand what has been going on and it has been confusing the hell out of me. I don’t know what it is about you but you just...”I stopped talking because I felt movement beside me and then a hand on my arm,

“I think about you a lot as well Elliot.” His words surprised me, I did not expect to hear them come out of his mouth. “I really like you.” He literally took the words out of my mouth and said them for me.

All of a sudden I felt so brave, I don’t know what made me do it but I did.

I put one hand on his cheek and instantly connected our lips before something could stop us again. I could tell how shocked he was that I had done this because he wasn’t moving for a moment.

Hell I was so surprised with myself that I just went and did this. Everything about this though felt so right like this is what I should have done so long ago. 

I could feel him loosen up and kiss me back, his lips fit so perfectly on mine. 

Jaxon grabbed my shirt so that he could pull me closer into him and deepen our kiss, he knew exactly what he was doing to me right now. 

I felt his tongue on my bottom lip so I parted my lips which led to him instantly trying to win dominance with my tongue but I wasn’t having any of it. 

Everything about this moment was perfect and I didn’t want it to end but I wanted to be able to talk to him about all of this before his parents came home. 

They would never let me come back over if they heard what was about to be said. I pulled away from him which caused him to let out a whimper and let me tell you it was so hot. 

“Elliot why?” 

“Because we have to establish some things before we carry on.” He groaned and then sat back on his bed.

“My parent’s can’t find out.” This was a no brainer. 

“I know, and I don’t want to put you in another situation like before.”

“What do you propose we do?”

“Well, this has to remain our secret Jax. We can’t take any chances of someone finding out and then you get in trouble or something.” He nodded and then took a deep breath. 

“That works for me...so what does that make us though?” I wasn’t really sure how far this was going to go so I didn’t think that far ahead. 

I honestly thought he was going to tell me that he wasn’t into me and that he didn’t want me here anymore. And now here we are. 

“Do you want to see where this goes? We don’t have to rush into anything.” He smiled and nodded at what I said to him. 

“I’m okay with that.” He leaned forward and pressed his sweet lips against mine, it seems like he was willing to agree with anything I said just so he could do this again.

I mean I’m not mad about it it was just kind of cute is all. 

This worked out so much better than expected, not only does he like me back but now I have a weight lifted from my shoulders. 

Yeah we may have to keep this between him and I but we will see where this goes, I think it will work out for us.
