started to undress, but stopped when I heard a rustle from the bed. When I looked over towards it I found Jake still asleep, he must have just moved a bit.
I continued to undress, until I was only in my underwear and bra.
Taking the clothes I turned around to walk towards the bathroom. I found Jake standing there in front of me, and my face started burning red with embarrassment. I tried to hide myself with the clothes as best as I can.
"Oh!" he exclaimed, he stared at me wide eyed. "I just needed to use the bathroom; I didn’t know you were up! I swear! I'm so, so sorry!" he turned around quickly and suddenly it wasn't my face but his that was filled with embarrassment.
I took the clothes and ran into the bathroom. I changed quickly, but I just couldn't go out there. I realized I had to face the fact that I did like him, and no matter what happened I would be with him for however long we spend on our own.
I opened the door, only to find him sitting on the floor with his back against the far wall. He had his face in his hands and was resting them against his knees.
I walked over to him slowly and stood before him.
"It's ok," I started, "you didn't know."
He removed his hands from his face and looked up at me. I helped him up and out of nowhere pulled him into a hug.
"Thank you, for everything. You were the only one who would accept me. If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have any one." I said, burying my head into his chest. Before I could say anything else, he was kissing me. I would be lying again if I said I hated it and wanted him to stop.
He picked me up and sat on the bed. Sitting me on his lap. He placed his hands around my waist as I wrapped my arms around his neck.
He picked me up again, but this time laid me on the bed. He climbed over me, never disrupting our kissing.
Suddenly he broke the kiss, rolled of the bed, and ran to the other side of the room. He crawled up into a ball again, like he had before, and I sat up, looking at him with a confused expression on my face.
"What happened? Why did you stop?" I asked, realizing I sounded a little silly saying it.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry Roxy. I should have never done that." he said, but I was so quiet I had to strain to hear him.
I got up and walked over to him. Sliding my back down the wall I sat on the floor next to him. He didn't move.
"Why are you sorry? You didn't do anything," I said.
He looked up at me through his hair.
"But I could of! I'm so sorry!" he said looking up and resting his head against the wall.
I didn't know what to say next, so I rested my head against his shoulder. He didn't do anything though.
~Chapter 4~



I never really thought that this would happen. That Jake and I would end up together, especially in this situation. Together in the world.
“So what shall we do today?” I asked Jake, who was brushing his teeth at the sink.
I shrugged his shoulders and spit into the sink. Quickly rinsing his mouth first, he said, “I don’t really know. I guess drive around a little find somewhere to eat first.”
I took this into consideration and decided that it would be a good idea. I was a little hungry after all.
After we were ready to go I grabbed the keys and headed out, Jake following behind me.
We drove around until we found a small diner, right off the highway.
We were seated quickly. It was like no one else was here.
Jake order some pancakes, while I just ordered some water and a muffin.
“So what now?” I asked as I nibbled on my muffin.
“I don’t know. Where are we?” he asked me, stuffing a piece of pancake into his mouth.
I pulled out a map that I had grabbed from the hotel. Opening it I looked for landmarks around us that would give is off. The highway was a good place to start. After a couple of minutes of narrowing it down I came to a conclusion of where we were.
“Cape May, New Jersey,” I told him.
He gave me a look like he had been here before. Apparently I was correct with my assumption.
“My parents used to bring me here when I was little,” he said taking the map from me. “Here,” he pointed to a small location that was highlighted green on the map. “There is a small campground that they took me to. I know this area well. I don’t know why I didn’t remember this diner. They used to take me here on the way up to the campground.”
I studied where he was pointing, but the campground wasn’t really going to help me.
“What if we just stay here? This seems far enough from anyone that we know.” He continued. It was true thus was far away from our old houses, but I didn’t know if we were safe.
I didn’t really want to go any further though and he knew this area well, as far as I knew though.
“Ok,” I agreed.
For some reason he gave me a shocked face. “Really? I thought you would want to go further!”
“Not really. I don’t know this part of New Jersey very well. Hell, I don’t really know any part of New Jersey well. I barely know the town we used to live in. talking about living, where are we going to stay?” I asked.
He thought about this for a minute, and then answered me.
“There is a small vacation house that my family owns. No one goes there anymore though. We should be good there,” he pointed to another location on the map. “And it’s located right inside of Cape May.”
I nodded.
I folded the map up and shoved it back into my purse. We quickly finished up our food, paid for it, and got back onto the road.
I handed the map to Jake, who was fixing his hair. I just shook my head and he laughed a little. He is worse than me with his hair. Jake took the map and opened it back up.
“You get to direct me on where we have to go. You get us lost I kill you,” I said jokingly.
“Ok, but I know where we are going, so I won’t get us lost,” he shot back.

~Chapter 5~



It was nearly dark when we arrived. It was a small place. Only a one floor house, but it would be great for us.
I turned to him, "And how do we get in?"
He walked over to the door, totally ignoring my question, after getting out of the car and felt above the doorway.
He pulled out a small spare key and showed it to me. I didn’t have an answer so I just stuck my tongue out and laughed a little. He did the same thing in return.
Without saying anything he opened the door. Jake had to give the door a little shove, for it was stuck. He disappeared into the house. I started towards the place, when he suddenly came back out. He ran over to me and picked me up. I gave a small yelp and laughed.
“Isn’t this what you are supposed to do when you get married?” I asked, laughing as I said it.
He started laughing a little too. “Ah, close enough.” He set me back down when we got into the house. “Two people, obviously in love, living together in their own home, close enough.”
He turned me around so I faced him. Leaning down he gave me a small kiss. I smiled at him. “I guess,” I said.
He grabbed my hand and showed me where all the rooms were. Lastly he showed me the bedroom. I couldn't help but stand there, probably looking like an idiot, in awe.
You would never guess from looking at the outside, that this room could be so big. A large king sized bed sat in the middle of the room, which was pushed towards the wall. Two large black dressers sat against the walls, one to my left and one to my right.
"You should lie down and get some sleep. I'll go get the stuff from the car, I'll be in then," said Jake.
I didn't argue, I just walked quickly over to the bed and plopped down onto it.
I could hear Jake move in and out of the house, carrying out clothes and other items in.
After Jake was done he climbed into the bed with me and wrapped his arm around me. I had my eyes closed to make it look like I was sleeping. I didn't budge when he did it. I liked when he did things like this, but I would never admit that to him. It made me feel wanted, like I was actually loved. It was a good feeling after all those years of being abandoned and betrayed.
He fell asleep before I did, but soon I did too.
