"Letshow you the world princess".
"Jake". I whispered.
"I'll never hurt you, I'll treat you like the queen you'll become. I just want you to be mine".
Wow.
I wasn't against him takingon a few dates but this sounded like he wanted more already. This was moving way to fast. We barely knew each other. "Jake I-.." "To much to soon?". He sighed. "Sorry babe I'm just eager".
"A little". Walking closer to the water I missed his touch already. Sparagraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this on .net. Visit to read the complete chapters for free. I still couldn't wrap my head around the way I felt towards him.
I was constantly having an argument with myself. I couldn't have feelings for him already could I? I mean I shouldn't that was impossible.
Feeling the slight nip in the air I pulled my cardigan tighter across my body. It was getting colder and being this close to the water wasn't helping.
"You ready to go?". He asked.
"I guess". Walking the short distance I picked up my bag and shoes. I didn't want to go hjust yet I was enjoying being out here.
He had went quiet. Hadn't uttered a word the whole way back. Maybe he didn't like how I reacted or maybe he was thinking on what to say next. I had never seen him this quiet, he always had something to say.

"You wantto take you home?". He asked.
It wasn't late and I still wasn't ready to go hyet. I was having a good night. His mood had definitely changed I could feel it and I knew I had caused it.
"Are you okay?". I asked slowing down a good few feet away from the bonfire. Alanna had clocked us I could feel her staring.
"Always princess".
"I'm going to stay a little longer. Thanks for the -... I stopped talking when I noticed he wasn't interested in what I was saying. To busy smiling at his phone.
"Really?". I whispered under my breath as I walked away. Heading towards Alanna I didn't miss the frown on her face.
"What's wrong?". She asked.
"Nothing". Sitting beside her I took out my phone. "I was having such a good night". I groaned.
"What happened?". Passinga beer I gladly took it. I didn't understand how his attitude changed so quickly. Was he angry, pissed off? I had only been here a week surely to hell he understood why I wanted to take things slow. "Your brother happened". Taking another sip of my beer I noticed he was no longer here.
"What's he done this time?".
"I'm not even talking about it". Wiping off my feet I put my socks and shoes back on. I was so frustrated and annoyed by him.
"Trouble in paradise already?". She laughed.
"He doesn't like it when you tell him something he doesn't want to hear".
"Yeah that sounds about right. What did you say to him?".
"Nothing it doesn't matter. I'm going to head hI'm starting to get a sore head". Getting to my feet she placed her hand on my arm.
"You okay though?". She asked standing up.
"I gave him a chance Alanna and we had fun but I'm not ready to dive back into a relationship. Your bloody brother hasup the aisle already".
She burst out laughing.
"I'm being serious". I groaned. "Talking about wantingto be his. I've been here 5 days, 5 days Alanna".
"Hey calm down". Grabbing a hold of my hands she squeezed tight. "Jake likes you a lot, yes he may con a little strong but trustit's all good and you'll understand in time". "What does that even mean?". I asked.
"Just be patient please and don't take what he does or says to seriously. Wantto walk you home?".
It was like she was talking in riddle. I didn't understand what she was trying to tellwithout actually telling me. I was so done with tonight and definitely ready for bed. "No it's okay I'll be fine".
"I'm not letting you walk hon your own. It's late and he'll have my head if I do".

"Leah?".
"Seriously Alanna I'll be okay".
My house was in darkness, I'm guessing George was staying the night seeing as his car was still imthe drive. Making my way inside I locked the door behindand kicked off my shoes. Walking through the living room I about jumped a foot in the air when I noticed George sat at the island. "Sorry Leah I didn't mean to scare you". He was sat reading the paper with a glass of milk.
"That's okay". I smiled taking a bottle of water out the fridge. "Can't sleep?". I asked.
"Nighthawk". He chuckled. "Did you have fun with your friends?".
"I did". I smiled. "I'll see you in the morning, goodnight". As I about turned his next words stopped me.
"I know the boy that's sniffing around dog you Leah. He's got a good family but he has stemper. Just be careful around him". I frowned.
"It's none of my business just a little friendly advice".
"Care to elaborate?". I asked.
"You'll know soon enough. Goodnight Leah". Turning his attention back to the paper I made a face. What did he mean by that? What was it with withm people saying stuff that I didn't understand and then not explaining it to me? Closing my bedroom door I went about closing my blinds and curtains. Tonight ended on a weird note, it frustratedand pissedoff. Stripping out of my clothes I turned the light off and jumped into bed. Tomorrow was a new day.
