Chapter 4 - Heart stopping

I can't think of anything else, my mind is racing, and the next thing I know I hear, "So who was that?" I whipped around to see my dad standing there with his arms crossed. I tried to keep as calm as I could and explain to him that some boys ran by knocking me into the benches and the paramedic thought that I might have a concussion, so Jacen gave me a ride home. Dad said, "So does this Jacen plan to meet with me?" I got red, or I guess even redder which I didn't even think was possible. I told him that he was just giving me a ride home, dad just huffed and said, "mmmhmmm..." He walked off looking like someone just skipped out on putting the meat on his sandwich. I went to bed thinking about that little peck on my cheek. I dreamed of the day that I told him who I am, and of him asking me to marry him. These dreams continued all through the night. I woke up the next morning with my sheets soaked from the pleasantries of my dreams I quickly balled up my bedding and ran down the stairs after changing and threw it into the washer hoping against all odds that no one saw me or what I was doing. Wouldn't you know the luck, my brother walked in laughing at what he just saw. He said, "I want a new bike." I asked him what on earth he was going on about and he replied, "I want a new bike or mom and dad find out that you're peeing the bed." I hushed him quickly so that he would stop talking. I told him, "I didn't pee on the bed, I just had a very interesting dream about a boy I met." All he said was, "Ewwww... I didn't want to know that, but either way, I want a new bike or you can try cleaning up the beans I spill all over mom and dad." My heart felt like it had dropped down into my stomach. I finally tell him, "Fine, I will do it. Now, will you please just let me be?" He laughed his evil laugh and walked away. I went into the kitchen after starting the washer hoping that my face wasn't red enough for anyone to notice. And like she could read my mind Mom asked, "Are you ok honey? Your face is quite red." I told her that I was fine and that my head just hurt from the concussion. At that she almost jumped out of her skin asking what happened, are you ok? It was then that I realized that mom didn't know about that yet. So I did everything I could to calm her down and explain what had happened last night without the details of the kiss or the fact that I soaked my panties watching him play. She was furious towards those guys who just ran me over but was glad that there are still yet young men like Jacen who would give a girl a ride home without expecting her to give him any sort of favors in return. I agreed with her statement of how it takes a real man to do what Jacen did. In my mind, I was screaming like a little school girl. What am I saying, I am just a little school girl... after all 5'1 1/2 isn't exactly tall. I ate and left for school hoping to catch up with Jacen for a little bit before class started. Though when I finally found him he was speaking to another girl. She was gorgeous, with long brown hair, skin perfectly kissed by the sun, and green eyes that shined like emeralds in a fancy showcase at a jewelry store. I thought nothing of it until little miss bombshell in a white tank top and Daisy Dukes leaned in and kissed Jacen on the cheek and left.
