Chapter 14 KATIE'S POV
"Ethan? Have you seen jake today?" I asked. I was worried about him. I mean it was normal for him to skip, but we had an argument this morning. What if he wasn't ok? "No. I guess he decided to skip school" Ethan replied casually. "We had an argument this morning" "He'll be fine. Don't worry about it" What was I even worrying about? Jake would never get angry over an argument with me? I wasn't anything special. "I hope so" "Yeah" He drove me to my house and parked up. "Thanks Ethan" "Don't mention it" I smiled "See you tomorrow?" "Yeah. Call me later?" "Sure" I told him before walking inside. The house was empty. No jake. I sighed. I was really hoping he would be here. I wanted to make sure he was alright. Please be ok jake....
At 6:00PM I was pacing the house. Jake. Is he ok? Please jake. I heard I knock on the door. Jake! Maybe he forgot his keys? No. How would he have locked the door? Please be him. I opened the door and found two policemen at the door. Oh god! No. No. No. No. "Can we see Mrs or Mr Steinwood?" "N-no. They aren't here" I stuttered. "What happened to jake? Please tell me he is alright" "I'm sorry, but jake has been in a motorcycle accident. He is injured and just waiting for results" One of them told me. "Oh my god! Can I see him? How badly is he injured? Motorcycle accident! When?" "Calm down. We will take you to him now" "Please. Quickly" I grabbed my coat and ran out of the door. The policemen took me to the hospital and I half ran to reception. A blonde haired lady sat there. "Jake Steinwood. Please" I said. "Second floor, room 25" "Thank you" I got there quickly and looked through the window of his room. I saw cuts on his face and I gasped. Jake looked up at me, his eyes wide. Was he surprised to see me? why? He lifted his finger and gestured for me to come in. I did. "Jake" I whispered. He smiled "Yeah....I ran into a car on my bike" He laughed. I gave him a horrified look. " I wasn't thinking" "You could have died!" "Yeah. Well..." "I have been worried sick about you all day!" His whole facial expression changed. Shocked. Confused. I couldn't read it. "You worried about me?" He asked. I thought about lying to him and saying no. But I decided against it. "Yes" He smirked and I rolled my eyes. Well... That motorcycle accident hadn't scrambled his brain. "Come lie down with me" I raised one eyebrow. What? "No. Ill hurt you" I told him. "And you are already hurt enough as it is" "I think I can take it. I'm a big boy" He mocked. Ugh. "It isn't my fault if you get hurt you know?" I pulled off my jacket and put down my bag before lying down next to him on the bed. I turned on my side so we were facing each other. I saw his smile deepen. "Don't pretend you don't love being this close to me" "Ok... Just because you're hurt, to please you I will lie and say that I do love being this close" I said. Lying obviously. I loved being this close to him. "I'll make you admit it... Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow but I will make you admit that you love being so close to me" I rolled my eyes. "Good luck with that" "I won't need luck, princess" He smirked. "I have charm, beauty and-" "A big ego" He glared at me and I giggled. "And what did your new boyfriend think of you worrying about me then?" Jake asked. "He's not my new boyfriend. I'm just going on a date with him. Not that big of a deal" "Sure? You seem pretty happy with him" "Yeah I guess. He's a nice guy" Why was I discussing this with him? "Are you happy with me?" What? "What type of question is that?" "Just answer it" "Yeah" of course I was. I mean he did throw me against a wall and scared the hell out of me, but I needed to forget that. "Would you go on a date... With me?" "Again? Why?" I asked. Yes I would would have been a better answer Katie! "Will you or won't you?" "Yeah. Yeah I will" "Good. Maybe I can prove to you that I'm a better guy than Ethan" "I'm sure you can" I replied. There was an awkward silence... Jake leaned in and kissed me. I closed my eyes and started to kiss him back. It was a long kiss. A good long kiss. And when I pulled back it was only to breathe. Butterflies were dancing in my stomach. Ethan never gave me this feeling. He probably never would. I mean he was great sure, but jake..... Jake was much, much better. Jake moved a little closer to me and hissed a little in pain. "How badly are you hurt?" I asked. "Not too bad. Just a few cuts and bruises. Lucky I guess. I have to stay here for another hour or two though. Hurts like hell though" "I'll stay with you" It was the least I could do for him. He was hurt. "You don't have to. I-" I cut him off. "I want to" That made him smile. "I can't argue with that and I won't" "Good" "You can go to sleep for a bit if you want. Ill wake you up when it's time to go home" He told me. "Are you sure? I am really tired. I shouldn't be though. I spent half my dad sleeping yesterday" "Yeah. You weren't in class. You went home to sleep?" I didn't want to tell him that he had caused me to pass out. He'd feel awful... Or wouldn't.... "Never mind it's a long story" "Tell me later?" "Probably nothing you want to hear. It's nothing really" "I want to know what happened to you" I stayed silent "I'll find out" "I don't think you will" "Who else knows?" "Ethan" "What did you do Katie?" He seemed concerned now. He couldn't possibly think that I-? No. No. No. I had to tell him now in case he thought... "I passed out and woke up in school at night" He breathed a sigh of relief. "Yeah. Ethan just helped me get out of school" Jake nodded. "Are you sure you are alright?" I nodded "Yeah" He pulled me closer to him and soon I fell asleep.....
