Thank You for Saving Me

[Stella’s P.O.V.]

“So, tell us about prom.” My mom urged at dinner.

I sat up straight and started quickly. “Oh, my gosh! It was so much fun. The boys played so well and Jack was the best.”

Dad shook his head, but continued eating.

Rose focused on me. “Jack? You had a date?”

I nodded.

Mom turned to look at her. “He was so sweet. He even came in and introduced himself. He was such a gentleman.”

I grinned to myself.

“Yeah, that hair and those tight jeans…”

“Dad, stop being so picky. He was nice to you.” I lot he was loved that he was
protective, but it was kinda out of control.

“Is he your boyfriend?” Rose asked.

*Uh oh. She’s getting overly protective, too.*

Her question got me thinking.

*Is he my boyfriend? He makes me really happy. I always get excited to see him. And I totally and completely care about him.*

“Earth to Stella!” Rose waved her napkin in front of my face.

“Huh?”

“Ok. I’ve definitely gotta meet this boy.”

[Jack’s P.O.V.]

It was about 1:30am and I couldn’t sleep. I texted Stel.

<I can’t sleep. :(

>I’m sorry, guy.

<Why aren’t you sleeping?

>Cause you just texted me, goober. :)

<Can I come over?

>You have to be quiet…

I smiled and threw some clothes on and snuck out of my house.
