named Jaylen," I notice him tense up when he mentions his brother being deaf "you know Jake, there's nothing wrong with having a brother that's deaf. Sometimes I work at the disability center and I love it and the kids, they're wonderful and special" he doesn't say anything then he says "I go see Jaylen every day no matter what. I would love for you to meet him and the rest of my family" I raise my eyebrows in surprise "I'd like that" he smiles and nods. We pull up to the drive-through, order our food, and head to the park, once at the park Jackson barely eats all he wanted to do was play. "You are soo beautiful" I blush when Jake says that to me "I mean it, you're sexy as hell" we both laugh, I look at my watch it read 5:00. We better get going" I put my uneaten food in the bag while Jake gets Jackson, then we head to Jake's jeep then to the barbershop "can I stay with you, Andy?" Jackson asks giving me the puppy dog eyes "sure" I say not hesitating to even think about it. "Andy you don't have to"

"I know but I want to, you can pick him up tonight when you and Shaq come over" he sighs shaking his head "OK then." Jackson jumps out of the jeep running into the barbershop "he's going to be in love with you by the end of the week" we both get out and I glance inside the shop to see my co-workers looking at us. "So I'll see you later"

"Yeah" he hugs me around my waist "cant wait" he whispers in my ear as his hands move farther down then he steps back. "Bye"

"Bye" and with that, he gets into his jeep and drives off I walk inside the shop "so that's your new boyfriend?" Lawrence asks twirling Jackson around in his chair, the shop was just about empty which is surprising. "No Lawrence, he's just a friend" I drink some of my tea "yeah, yeah, whatever you say Andy" K.C smirks "ya'll are stupid, go get a girlfriend" they all just laugh.

It's after 8 when I finally leave the shop but Jackson and I go get some ice cream and bubble gum then only do we head to my house my parents are already there. "I'm home" I yell walking into the kitchen with Jackson trailing behind "ooh you brought another cutie home" Destiny swoons sitting beside him I laugh helping Jackson open his ice cream sandwich. "My name's Destiny when you're done you wanna play some video games?" He starts nodding vigorously "cool then" the doorbell rings. "Des can you get that?" She runs out of the kitchen "you thirsty?" He nods again licking his fingers "want some juice, water, or Kool-Aid?"

"Juice" I take out the juice and a cup "hey guys," Shaq says walking in I pour Jackson's juice "what's up?"

"Nothing much," Jake says rubbing Jackson's head "he hasn't been a pain in the butt has he?"

"Nope, sure hasn't, he's a good little boy, and he's sweet" Jackson smiles at me. "So are you ready to go play some games, Jackson?" Destiny asks walking back into the kitchen "yes let's do it" he yells jumping off the chair and leaving out behind my sister. "I think I left my phone in the car, I'll be right back," Shaq says patting his pockets and walking out of the kitchen, leaving Jake and I alone. For a moment neither of us says anything we just look at each other, he was looking so good too, like always, "Andy why are you giving me so much a hard time?"

"What do you mean?" I question drinking some more of my smoothie "I mean, you know I like you so why not be my girl?" I bite my lip to keep from smiling so hard. I knew Jake liked me but to hear him say it gave me butterflies all in my stomach "well I have to get to know you more before I can become your girl"

"So then go on a date with me" he offers walking over to where I am. I wanted to say yes to going on a date but I knew if that happened I'd feel bad because I'm already involved with Sean. Then a part of me wanted to go ahead and tell Jake I'm involved with someone but deep down I don't want him to lose interest because of that, and I don't know what he'd think of me if he knew I was dating a teacher at the school. No one knew about me and Sean except my best friends, I trusted they wouldn't tell anyone, it was important to me that no one else knew about the relationship because I'd die if Sean got into anyone trouble. "I would Jake but I don't know if that's the best idea"

"And why is that? You're not feeling me?" He questions, now he was right in front of me, my heart was pounding so hard and fast in my chest I was sure he could hear it. "You know I'm feeling you Jake" I whisper as he puts one hand on my waist pulling me into his body, he had on some cologne that turned me on as soon as I smelled it. "Then go out with me" he suggests lifting my chin so I'm staring into his blue eyes and just then someone behind Jake clears their throat. We hurriedly pull apart to see Shaq and Michael standing in the doorway smirking at us "just nasty" Michael comments making a face and walking off. "I leave you two alone for 5 minutes and look what happens" Shaq jokes shaking his head "oh shut up," I say moving away from Jake without looking at him, my face was already hot and I knew looking at him would only make it worse. I wasn't trying to get too involved with Jake but he wasn't making it easy for me, I was slowly beginning to want him more and more.

Chapter 3

One thing I hated to be was confused, and at this point, I was past confused. I wanted Jake but I also wanted Sean, they both had everything I wanted in a boyfriend and they both treated me so good. I have a deeper connection with Sean though because I've known him longer, he was my first and only, and I had so much love for him. But on the other hand, Jake makes me feel wanted and he turns me on just by making eye contact, then they're both just so fine. "Hello, earth to Andy" my mom sings snapping her fingers in my face bringing me back to reality "oh I'm sorry mommy" I mumble sipping on my lemonade. We were at the nail salon getting our nails and feet done, a part of our monthly mother-daughter day ritual. She's always so busy with work that she doesn't get to spend a lot of time with any of us, the
