Nate walked into the cafeteria to see Jessica sitting with Beth and the guy from this morning. He walked up to them and sat next to Jessica, pulling her into his arms as he sat down. He hadn't seen her since first period and he felt like he needed a hug.
Jessica smiled as she wrapped her arms around his waist.
Nate hid his face in her hair and hugged her a little tighter.
Jessica smiled feeling his breath on her neck.
"What class do you have next? Maybe I can walk you there?" Nate offered, wanting to spend more time with her.
"Science" Jessica said with a smile.
"yeah cuddle up with your girlfriend and don't even say hi to me" Beth teased.
"We both know I love her more!" Nate joked, hugging Jessica tighter to him and sticking his tongue out at Beth.
Beth rolled her eyes playfully " Not if Dean runs away with here" she said playfully.
"That would never happen. She's mine. I won't give her up that easily!" Nate declared, picking Jessica up and setting her on his lap so she was closer to him. "You can't have her either Beth!" Nate joked, making another face at Beth.
Jessica barried her head in Nathan's chest too embarrased too look at the other two.
Nate laughed along with Beth as he rubbed circles in Jessica's back. "Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to embarrass you." He whispered to her, continuing to laugh.
Jessica smiled and hugged Nathan's torso.
Nate hugged her tighter in return and went back to talking with Beth, continuing to completely ignore the other guy from this morning.
Beth snorted at the too in attempt to laugh" you guys are like a newly married couple".
"Maybe we are." Nate joked, "You may never know…" He chuckled
Beths face went from playfull to serious.
Dean heard that and chocked on his salad.
"I'm joking. We're only in high school. You can't get married until your eighteen. Besides, I don't think we're quite ready to get married just yet." Nate's smile dropped as Beth's mood changed.
Jessica quickly pulled out her phone and called her mother to check on lucy.
Nate listened as Jessica called her mother, wanting to make sure Lucy was doing okay.
After a few minutes Jessica hung up the phone putting it back in her pants pocket. "Lucy's fine" she said
"That's good, I'm glad she's doing okay without you there this morning." Nate smiled and gave Jessica a quick kiss.
(hahaha rubs hands together before cracking knuckles)
Lucy was put down by her grandmother in the living room and was allowed to play with her toys. Her grandmother went quickly to the bathroom and she estimated that she would be out in 10 minutes because she was old. Lucy rattled her toy keys before getting bored of it and crawled in front of the fireplace. He onesie didn't keep her warm enough and she was to far from the lit fire. She went right to it and saw that the background behind it was moving. She went out to touch it in immediately retracted her hand. She had a second-degree burn and started yelling the loudest than she ever had.
Jessica's mother could not here her over the water runing in the bathroom.
(Not quite sure how to respond to these recent events soo….um….I'm just gonna wait on that for now XD)
Later that day Jessica and Nathan were on there way home they were about a mile away from Jessica's house.
