LAKEN
I’m up bright and early Monday morning, putting a little extra care into how I get ready. I blow dry my hair and straighten it till it’s flowing down to my waist in silky brown folds. I take care with my makeup and apply it just right to accentuate my eyes, and a deep red covers my lips to give me a sensual look.
I decide to wear my black skinny jeans and my favorite, The Amity Affliction band tee. I finish off my look with grey suede ankle boots.
LAKEN “I’m sorry, baby. I’ll stop. I just wanted to see that smile of yours instead of the hurt in your eyes,” he says as he grabs my hand and intertwines his fingers with mine. “Yeah, well, let’s just pretend I didn’t hump you like a bitch in heat,” I grumble. “Hell no! I will never forget that and don’t want to. That was hot, Laken. God, was it hot,” he groa
LAKENI’m sitting in my seat for the first period, and I’m aware that someone just sat down behind me, but I’m too focused on getting everything out of my bag to realize who it is.That is until I feel the whisper of words against my neck, and my whole body locks up.“Already putting out for the new guy. I knew you were a dirty slut. Especially putting out for dirty trash like hi
LAKEN By the time lunch comes around, I haven’t seen Blake, even in the halls, so I’m anxious to see him. I walk into the cafeteria and grab my tray of food before walking to my usual table. Except when I get to my table, there’s someone I don’t know sitting in the seat across from where I always sit. I stop and stare at him, and when he notices me, he looks up, and the beauty of this
LAKENBlake starts choking on his food, and I'm about to fall off his lap onto the floor from laughing so hard. The type of laughter that gives you a belly ache.Poor Blake. I can’t even help him with his choking because I can’t see through the tears falling out of my eyes. Thank God for waterproof mascara.Oh, this is epic. Blake is worried muscle god will steal me away, but it l
BLAKE I don’t know what to make of the newcomer. Dirk is...well, I don’t know what he is yet. As long as he doesn’t come for my girl, then we will be just fine, but I’m still going to keep an eye on him to see if I can figure him out. He seems like he wants to be friends, but I don’t trust easily. He did seem honest when he said he just saw Laken as a sister, though. And Laken seemed to like him okay. Especially after he sent Tillie out of the cafeteria amid a toddler fit. That was some prime entertainment, and the fact he was sticking up for Laken
BLAKEThe rest of the day went by smoothly, and I found out that Dirk and I have a few classes together other than gym class. I also found out that he has a few with Laken that I don’t have with her, so now she has someone with her for most of the day to keep the vultures away.The last bell has rung, and I head to Laken’s locker to see if she’s there and see what she’s up to tonight. I want to spend more alone time with her. I want to get to know her better, with or without humping. I neve
BLAKE I park in the driveway and see that Grams is home. Good, I really want her to meet Laken. I would have thought that something like this would make me nervous, probably have me breaking out into a sweat, but I’m not. I can’t wait for her to meet Laken. I know she will love her, and I think that Laken will love her as well. Laken could use someone like Grams in her life. A positive and caring adult. Everyone could use Grams in their life. She’s something special, and it makes me hate my dad, even more, knowi
BLAKEI walk up the steps of the porch with Laken’s hand in mine. My Gram’s eyes drop to our linked hands, and her smile gets impossibly wider.I lean over and kiss Grams on the cheek, even though she doesn’t take her eyes off of Laken.“Grams, this is Laken. Laken, this young woman is my Grams,” I say.Grams chuckles and smacks my arm. “Oh, hush. You know I’m no young woman. Although I will flatter myself and say I’m not old either,” she says while giving Laken a wink.Laken laughs and holds out her hand. “It’s nice to meet you….”
