Shaken and Tried

Chapter 11

I know that Mrs. Hill is saying something, but I can't find it in myself to care about the structure of a cell right now, (which they have been pounding down our throats since 4th grade may I add and I feel like by 11th grade IB biology I should be learning something, I don't know, useful?) so I instead find myself drawing mindless doodles in the margins of my paper. What started as little people and flowers then moved slowly into swirls and random shapes and had now hit its final resting place at song lyrics. I had added a few more lyrics to the song I started on my date with Jack as well as writing down some of my favorite lines from other songs. I had just filled the entire margin of my paper with lyrics from one song when I heard a voice reading off the lyrics right next to my ear, causing me to jump,

“She makes me feel like it's raining outside and when the storm's gone I'm all torn up inside I'm always nervous on, days like this like the prom I get too scared to move, cause I'm a fuckin' boy,” I recognize the voice as the one and only Jaime Preciado.

I'm a little annoyed, okay a lot annoyed, that he was reading over my shoulder so I just give him a cold side glare.

“Whats that from,” he asks me as If he can't clearly see that I don't want to talk to him right now. God dammit I don't like people. Right as he finishes his sentence the bell rings.

“A song,” I answer probably a little too coolly as I grab my back pack and speed out the room thankful that my next hour is 7th, meaning I get to see Jack. I have been having a shit day accompanied by morbid thoughts and even though I just saw him 2 hours ago at lunch, being with Jack makes me happy, and I could use some happy right now.

I see Jack placing his backpack on the floor next to his desk and immediately run up to him and hug him from behind. Jack jumps and quickly turns to face me before he meets my eyes and melt into my arms. We stand hugging until the bell rings, forgetting all the people around us who are giving us weird glances because I can't think of a thing that would feel better than Jack's arms around me right now. I sit down in the desk next to him and slip my hand in his before pulling out everything I need for history.

When class is finally over me and Jack walk out to my car hand in hand, not saying anything, just glad to be in each others company. After I sit in the car and turn on my radio and let it play whatever disk is already in and start the car.

“Do you want a milk shake? I want a milkshake,” I say to Jack as I turn out of the parking lot the opposite way as usual.

Jack giggles lightly, “Yes I do, there's that place by the park, we could be all cheesy and get milkshakes and swing at the park.”

“Perfect,” I reply with a nod, heading towards the milkshake place I can't remember the name of next to the park.

Jack gets a strawberry banana and I get a cookies and cream and we start walking to the park hand in hand, leaving my car in the parking lot of that milkshake place. We sit on the swings and lightly sway back in forth, still linked by the fingers. I don't know why but I decide to start singing the song I started at me a Jack's date, and wow how cheesy could this get.

Time to lay claim to the evidence
Fingerprints sold me out
But our footprints washed away from the docks downtown
It's been getting late for days
And I think myself deserving of a little time off
We can kick it here for hours
And just mouth off about the world
And how we know it's going straight to hell

Pass me another bottle, honey
The Jager's so sweet
But if it keeps you around then I'm down

Meet me on Thames Street
I'll take you out though I'm hardly worth your time
In the cold you look so fierce, but I'm warm enough
Because the tension's like a fire
We'll hit South Broadway in a matter of minutes
And like a bad movie, I'll drop a line
Fall in the grave I've been digging myself
But there's room for two
Six feet under the stars

I look up from the mulch under my feet and in to Jack's eyes. His mouth is open in a small smile and his eyes wide and slightly glazed over. Before I know it Jack is on top of me straddling my lap and laying kisses all across my face.

“That's beautiful,” Jack whispers after one final kiss on my lips.

I laugh nervously because I never sing in front of people and I don't know if Jack's lying or not, “Thanks,” I return Jacks kiss and begin to stand up, letting him slide off my legs and land on his feet. I grab his left hand and begin to walk back to my car, swinging our arms between us.

“Did you write that for me? 'Cause if you did that's really sweet, and if not that's super embarrassing. Wow I shouldn't have said that, ignore me,” Jack lets out in one breath and I laugh because of course its for him, he's my first boy friend who else would it be for?

“Of course it's for you Jacky,” I laugh again and nudge him in the shoulder with my side.

“Oh, thank you,” Jack looks down as a flood of pink rushes onto his cheeks.

I stop walking and pulls his chin up with my pointer finger before placing a long, lingering kiss on his lips and smiling shyly at him, “Your cute when you blush,” this in turn causes his cheeks to grow a deeper shade of red and me to giggle again, “Lets go back to my place and cuddle and watch a movie,” I suggest.

Jack nods and we head back to my place where I pull him down next to me on the couch after putting Peter Pan in the DVD player. This is probably my third time watching this movie with Jack, but what can I say, it's my favorite and Jack doesn't seem to mind. Me and Jack lay so that I'm the big spoon and he is lightly curled into my stomach. My fingers idly play with the hair in the back of Jack's head and I feel him melt against my touch.

We must fall asleep because when I wake up the sun has begun to set under the horizon and my mom is smiling down at us. I jump a little when I see her and she just laughs.

“Awe,” she coos, “Are you two together?” I nod slowly, “That is so cute! Ooo I just knew it.” she bounces slightly in in her spot, “Dinners ready, Jack can eat with us,” she runs off down the hall and into the kitchen before I can even respond. Mom's are weird.

I feel Jack stir slightly against me and I wonder how he hasn't woken up yet, “Hey Jacky,” I smile down at him a brush a piece of his fringe out of his eyes.

“Hey,” he smiles back at me and closes his eyes again.

“My mom came in and said we were cute and that your staying for dinner,” I laugh lightly.
Jack laughs back and just nods his head before texting who I'm amusing his mom and telling her he's staying here. When Jack puts his phone back on the side table I push him back on the couch and begin to place kisses up his neck before reaching his mouth. I push my tongue in his mouth, not bothering to ask permission and we battle for dominance before jumping apart at the sound of my mothers voice telling us dinner is ready.
