Long Live the Reckless and the Brave
Fifteen
So today is Saturday, and that means its party day. Tom and I have been busting our butts this morning to get reayd for the party. Tom fixed the game of Seven Minutes in Heaven so I could get Jack alone away from our friends so I can finally tell him I like him and kiss him. I've been struggling to write ever since he hooke dup with that dumb bitch I punched in the face. He obviously didn't know I hated her and he ended up with her.
"Jack invited her to come along as his plus one," Tom warned me.
"Crap, now I'm going to end up in a fight and get grounded again. This is not good," I was not happy with this at all. I wanted Jack to come alone so I could have the best birthday ever. Now that might be ruined by the fact that she's coming with him.
Aubree came over first along with Nate and his current fling. They settled in and drinks, soft drinks of course since Mom didn't want to have a huge problem or us getting buzzed and Dad not being here to help her maintian control over us. I'm thnkful she went with pop instead, I'd have to drink to get the courage to punch Jack for picking that snobby bitch over me.
"Jack and his girlfriend are on their walk over. Stella, please don't try anything with her. I don't want to spend my half of the party keeping you from fighting her," Tom warned.
"If anything, I'll run to my room and cry today," I told him. I was still depressed and I was still crying over everything. If only dad were home, he'd try to cheer me up with jam sessions and a new guitar.
Before long, Jack and his new girlfriend walked in. I dropped the fake smile I was wearing when I saw them walk in. I could feel my heart shattering at seeing them holding hands. How can my own best friend do this to me?
"Happy birthday, Tom and Stell," Jack greeted us with his smile. That smile that made my heart melt. I wanted to cry, knowing he was here with her and not just here to be with me. I hated feeling so weak and fragile.
"Thanks," I replied emotionlessly. I could tell by the look in his eyes, he knew that something was wrong with me.
"Are you alright, Stella," he asked.
"I'm fine," I lied to him. What I realy felt was my heart breaking and all of my hope of being with disappearing.
We finally got settled into the game. I hope Tom can land me with Jack. I trust my brother, but he tends to make mistakes from time to time.
"Okay let's start this game. Stella is the first girl as it is her birthday along with mine," Tom explained.
"Alright let's fish into the bowl for the lucky guy," I said. I pulled out a paper and I opened it up and showed that I drew Jack's card.
"You know the rule, go into the room and don't come out for seven minutes. I'll knock three times when it's over," Tom guided Jack and I to the guest room we were using for the Heaven room.
I sat down on the bed and Jack sat next to me. I looked down at my hands. I was so nervous. I had him alone in a room for seven minutes. I had to decide if I'd tell him my feelings or show them.
"Stella, I know you hate her. She's tol dme she hates you too," Jack spoke up first.
"Did she tell you I punched her," I asked him.
"Yeah. She's been talking shit about you. I'm not very happy with her," he replied.
"Then why are you with her," I asked him.
"To get your attention, Stella," he asnwered, staring at me intently.
I didn't know what to say. I had to show him my feelings. I was terrible with words when it came to Jack. I took hold of his face and slammed my lips against his. Jack responded immediately and kissed my back, wrapped his arms around my waist and pulling me to him.
We parted for air and I stared into his beautiful, dark eyes he got from his dad. A smile was on my face. he wore one that matched.
"I'm sorry I went to her, Stella. I'll break up with her Monday. I promise," Jack held up his pinky to me.
"I'll be waiting on Monday for you. We are to say nothing to our moms or dads until our dads come home. We'll share the details of everything at my Dad's birthday party," I told him as I linked my pinky with his.
"You've got a deal. We'll have to practice at Aubree's to hide our PDA from your mom. I'll get Aubree and Tom in on the plan so they can help keep us from being discovered before we share the news," Jack smiled and kissed me again.
I couldn't believe I got Jack. I though I lost him to the bitch waiting for us to finish up in here. Come Monday, she and him will be over and I get to have my dream guy at last. This was the best brithday present ever. I love you, Jack.
