Chapter 30: Chapter 30
If he truly liked me, he would fight for me just like Sean said. I looked at Sean, “I agree.”
“Agree to what?” I heard Jake’s voice say, and I turned my head around to see him walking towards us from the house.
I stood up and faced him, “Agree to dating Sean.”
Jake looked angry, hurt and jealous that I would do that. He turned to Sean, "How can you betray me like that?"
He turned to me, "You're not dating him or anyone except me. I love you, Max, and I can't bear it if you went to someone other than me."
I felt so shocked by his words, I had no idea that he felt this way about me. I thought he liked me a lot like I liked him, but I didn't that he loved me. I could only utter, "What?"
"This." He moved forward and cupped my face. He pressed his lips to mine in a kiss. I guess that answered my doubts on whether he had really wanted to kiss or it was because of the drugs.
I pulled back from the kiss, and we stared into each other's eyes as we both breathed heavily. "I am sorry, Max. Stephanie kissed me unexpectedly and even though I was feeling excited because I was drugged, I didn't want her. I only wanted you and I could only think of you. That is why I kissed you in the kitchen. I couldn't help myself. I want to be with you, Max."
I felt speechless because I had no idea that he cared about me so much like this. "I want to be with you too, and I know that Stephanie kissed you, not the other way around."
His lips quirked up in a small smile, "Then you accept to date me and be my girlfriend?"
I felt my lips stretch into a large smile, "Yes, of course, Jake."
His lips stretched into a wider smile as he grinned at me. He stared into my eyes as I stared back into his, seeing the happiness in his eyes. Sean's voice interrupted pur stare off, "You guys owe because that was my plan to get you two together again."
"Yeah, yeah." We both said at the same time and broke our gaze to turn to him.
He was already walking back to the house and I felt glad that he helped us out. I turned back to Jake to see that he was already looking at me. "I overhead Stephanie and Abbey saying that drugged us. Me to death and you for something different."
A frown settled on his face as he looked angry. He took his hand from my face and let it hang by his side, but still stayed close to me. "Those b*tches are going to get it. I'm going to make them regret it by Monday, and I did think that I was drugged."
Stephanie and Abbey were going to be scared as soon as they heard Jake's threat because he would certainly make her regret what she did to us. "Yeah, we should definitely get them back. You can't mess with the school bad boy and bad girl and expect to get away with it."
"That's my baby doll." He smirked, and I laughed.
"How do you feel now? You said that they planned to drug you to death, are feeling okay?" Jake's expression suddenly turned worried.
"Yes, I feel perfectly fine. The drug affected you because you drank two cups of the drink Abbey gave us, but I took only one."
Understanding passed over his features, "Ah, that is why."
"Should we go back to the party or leave?" I asked, not sure if I wanted to stay at the party anymore.
"We shouldn't leave like we are the ones that did wrong. They drugged us, they should leave."
I laughed, "Stephanie can't leave her own party or her own house."
He chuckled, "I know, but it's true that they should be ashamed and not us. So I say that we go back in and have the time of our lives. What do you think, baby doll?"
"H*ll yes! Next time she invites us, we don't have to come."
"Yeah, as you wish, doll. Now, why don't we go in so that you can dance with me?" He raised one eyebrow as he smirked and held out his hand with his palm facing up.
"Sure, bad boy." I grinned and placed my hand in his.
He interlaced our fingers and pulled me to the house. We ran towards it as we laughed. We reached the opened door and entered the house again. This time, people were much more and were dancing and jumping. We walked to the living room, hand in hand as a loud song played.
Sean, Drake and Jane were dancing along side the other party guests while Shane, Mike and Alex were on the couch that we were on earlier. Cassie was still on the couch that we left her, but Poppy, Abbey and Stephanie were missing. No smoke was coming out from under the stairs, but the pot heads were openly smoking and doing drugs on another couch.
Cindy was no where to be found. I guess Stephanie called them in for a little meeting since they saw that the drugs didn't work on us. Jake and I walked further into the room. Jane's eyes zeroed in on our interlaced hands and she raised her eyebrows at me. I smiled and she smiled back before looking back to her boyfriend.
We stopped a few feet from them and Jake pulled me close as we started dancing. We jumped and laughed, twirling and singing the lyrics to the song. He took my hand and drew me closer to him, but it caught me off guard and I fell into his chest. My eyes met his as his own eyes met mine. I felt my breath hitch as his head moved closer to mine.
