Chapter eight - Kim
The next few weeks I invite Jake and his brothers everywhere we go, mostly it's hanging out at the beach and it's his brother's accepting and dragging him along, but I'm sure he's getting less reluctant every time I see him.
Tonight, I'm planning to drop in on him at work, on my own so he can't avoid having to escort me to Andromeda's for karaoke night, where his brother Lloyd is already with my friends, dancing and apparently trying to hide the wristbands that mark you underage so they can buy drinks.
I stride past Mr Thomas and the other men outside with confidence in my mission, pushing open the door, I don't even notice the stares that come my way as I slide onto the bar stool, next to the passed out guy who doesn't look like he's moved since last time I was here.
As usual, Jake doesn't say anythin

I have no idea what I'm doing even considering going over to Kim's tonight, she's like a tornado that just sweeps you up and drags you along in the wake of her plans. She's text me twice this afternoon, once to let me know to come over around four so we can watch as many episodes as possible this evening, and the second time to ask about what we like on our pizza so she can get it in advance. At three I hear the chaos that indicates my brother's have come home from wherever they were when I went looking this morning. "Jake, we got you some biscuits, Lloyd said bourbons are your favourite." Maggie holds up the packet and I shoot Lloyd a look. He's already smirking, knowing full well he's tricked her into buying his favourite instead of mine.

"Good morning, good morning." I sing as I make my way downstairs, following the delicious smell of cooking. As usual for the first day of school, my parents are already making enough breakfast to feed about twenty families, the table is set with every flavour of jam you can think of, despite the fact we all choose the same two flavours and the rest will stay in the fridge until well past their use by dates. "Morning beautiful daughter numero uno." My dad kisses the top of my head, without stopping whisking the eggs. "First day of your last year, when did you all grow up? Why can't you stay the tiny little clumsy thing that used to climb into my briefcase to try to sneak into work with me?" "Ignore your father." My mum wrenches me towards her, crushing me into her chest. "My beautiful, beautiful baby, you've grown

I swear my dick is aching from the amount of times it's going up and down just in her proximity, it's like she's doing it on purpose, which she might actually be because she apparently finds it an ego boost. I've never been someone who has to jerk off daily, but this week I've actually had to do it in the toilets at school too, just to get it to go down, I don't know what to do. Lloyd's been telling me all week just to make a move on her, he says she'll be receptive to it, but I don't know, she teases me and stuff, but she teases them too, I don't think she's actually interested in me and I don't want to make myself look stupid. Tonight we're all going to the cinema straight after school before I have to leave them to go to work and I'm thinking maybe I could try something simple, maybe put my arm around her, or

I sprint back inside the club like my ass is on fire, slamming into Lloyd who's got his tongue so far down the throat of a redheaded girl that I end up having to wrench on his arm to get his attention."Jake's been kicked out, we need to go." I shout and he throws his head back, letting out a groan of frustration that I can hear over the music and noise of people enjoying their night.He says something to the redhead and she shakes her head, waving goodbye as she walks back to a group of girls dancing on the dancefloor."Twice in one night, that fucking ass." Lloyd moans loudly, leading the way towards where Mason is dancing with my friends. He nudges his brother and shouts far louder than necessary. "Dickwad got himself kicked out, we've got to go ""What'

"What are friends for?" The words repeat in my brain as I drive around, taunting me. How could I have been so happy only twenty-four hours ago? We kissed, it was the best kiss of my life, granted it was my first real kiss, but still, I'm fairly sure as kisses go that was phenomenal. So how could she not feel the same? I told the boys I was going to work and to call me for a lift when they wanted to leave, but after seeing her messing around on the bed with that guy, I just had to get out of there before I did something stupid. There's this piercing pain in my chest and I'm fairly sure it's what heartbreak feels like, either that or I'm having an actual heart attack, and no matter what I try to think about, my brain just keeps repeating those words.

"We're never having a party again, you know that right." Leanna tells me for probably the fiftieth time since she woke up. Well, fifty might be a slight exaggeration but it's definitely being a constant stream of complaints. "Uh huh." I nod along, tidying away the last of the mess in the kitchen from last night. "You're not listening are you?" She turns and puts her hands on her hips, staring at me and trying not to laugh. "Is this because of the hairy hulk man? Did something happen?" "Jake, yeah." The smile on my face refuses to go away. "We kissed and it was amazing, his lips are so soft and he was so gentle when he kissed me, like he was worried about hurting me. Oh, and he got so hard, just from a kiss, I could feel it poking me and it must be huge because…"

The rain pounds on the roof of my car, my wipers can't go fast enough to keep up with the water running down the windscreen but I cannot wait to get to school and see my green eyed brunette. I can still feel her lips on mine, like they've burned the memory of themselves onto my own over the weekend. Lloyd and Mason have been relentless with their teasing ever since Kim left last night and I've threatened to pull over and throw them out of the car half a dozen times since we set off this morning. Kian's oddly quiet, but he races out of the car as soon as I park and Mark's waiting for him by the door, so I guess whatever they argued about has passed. "Who's that with Kim?" Mason points through the side window and Kim is running through the rain, dragging after her, the guy she was rolling around on her sister's bed with. Both of them are laughing and she's holding an umbrella out of his reach, stomping in a puddle to splash him while he tries to take it from her. My stomach feels

As if that cheating slimeball showing his face here wasn't bad enough, he had the audacity to pretend he didn't know why I ended things last year. Making it seem like we'd had a casual fling and just lost touch, not that he'd been stringing a different girl along in all three schools. The arrogant asshole actually thought he could turn up at my school after what he did and I'd be glad of his attention. I don't know what was funnier, the idea that I'd ever consider going on another date with him, or the look of shock and fear on his face when he saw Jake. I also think that Jake might have been the tiniest bit jealous when he saw Calvin and I hate that I like it. I'm not normally 'that girl', but Jake's quite hard to read. I know he's attracted to me, his body
