Summer Lovin'

Jeremiah's POV

I woke up the next morning pleased to see Kirsten laying next to me. I turned on my side and admired her. She is so beautiful while she is asleep. I could wake up with her beside me forever.

I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that Kirsten Stark was in my bed with me. Who would have thought?

While in my thoughts, her eyes flickered open. "Good morning Kirst." I said in a low, raspy morning voice. I wrapped my arm around her.

"Morning Jere." "How did you sleep?" "So good," She said turning to face me now. "How did you sleep?" "So good." I repeated her answer. She beamed a smile at me. I couldn't help but feel incredibly happy. My girl is in my bed and she is wrapped in my arms, what more could I ask for?

"Hey Kirst..." I started, "Hmm?" She hummed looking up at me. "Can I ask you something?" "Sure, what's up?" I stared at her, my heart was beating out of my chest. I'd be surprised if she couldn't hear it. I was trying to gain the confidence to ask her my question.

"What would you say if I asked you to be my girlfriend?" She smiled and looked down, "I would have to say...absolutely." I grabbed her face and kissed her.

"That was long overdue." She said making my cheeks flush with a blush. "Yeah...yeah it was." I said kissing her again.

Kirsten's POV

I was walking in my house after Jeremiah had dropped me off. Last night had been one of the best nights ever.

I was smiling when I walked in and my smile slowly faded when I saw my mom standing there with her arms on her hips.

"Where have you been?" "I was at Susannahs," I said walking past her and towards the stairs. "All night?" "Yeah, it's no big deal." "Well you could have at least told me! You need to start answering your phone, you have a phone for a reason!"

I guess I did ignore her calls, but in my defense I was busy...

"Mom I accidentally fell asleep why are you freaking out?" "I was worried about you Kirsten I had no idea where you were!"

"You were worried about me?" I said not believing her. "Yes!" I rolled my eyes, "Since when have you ever been worried about me?" "Kirsten I'm your mom I-" "You haven't been acting like a mom" I said under my breath, not intended for her to hear, but she did.

"What?" "Nothing." "No, tell me what you just said." "I'm going upstairs." "Kirsten!" "I said that you haven't been acting like a mom!" I snapped. "Kirsten Stark!" "I'm just saying." "What would make you say that!?" I paused thinking about what I was going to say next. "Ever since dad died-" "Do not bring him into this!" She yelled, that was a mistake.

Tears filled my eyes and just stared at her. "Go to your room." She said pointing upstairs. I did, I went straight to my room and made sure to slam the door. Sure, that was childish but I felt like I had to do it.

This is not what I expected to happen when I woke up this morning.

I have been in my bed all day. The fight with my mom really made me exhausted, even though it only lasted about two minutes.

I received a text from Jeremiah,

Jere: Hey what are you doing?"

Kirst: Rotting in bed, you?

Jere: Just planning our very first date

Kirst: Oooh what is it?

Jere: I'll pick you up in 10 :)

I smiled and dragged myself out of bed. I hurried and got ready, I threw my hair into a messy bun and put on a dark green tank top with some shorts. I didn't know what he had planned so, I packed a swimsuit just in case.

I had been watching out my window for his red jeep. I finally saw it pull up and I ran downstairs hoping to avoid any family members. I walked outside and into his car.

"Hey!" He said greeting me with a kiss. That's when I remembered he is my boyfriend. This is unreal. "Hi!" He pulled onto the road and his hand rested on my thigh. "So what are we doing?" "It's a surprise." He smirked. "I thought all the surprises would stop once we started dating." "Well you thought wrong."

I playfully rolled my eyes and watched out the window trying to figure out where he is taking us.

We drove up the canyon and to a lookout spot that had a great view over Cousins. "Okay, stay here." He said sneaking a quick kiss, getting out and opening the trunk. I was a little bit confused.

"Okay don't look back here." He instructed. "Jere what are you doing?" "Just trust me," he said chuckling after. I obeyed I just got on my phone to pass the time.

It took him about 5 minutes to finish whatever he was doing. He opened my door and held a hand to help me out of the car. "Okay, are you ready?" "Yes I simply cannot wait any longer." I said taking his hand.

He led me back to the trunk and he had set down blankets and pillows so it resembled a bed. There was a basket filled with snacks and drinks.

I smiled, "Aww Jere!" I started, "This is so cute!" "I try" he said presenting himself. "I figured we could watch the sunset." He said climbing into the trunk. "This is so...romantic." I said climbing in behind him.

"Here!" He said handing me one of his hoodies, "It's about time I gave you another one." I smiled and slipped it on remembering the first one he gave me. It felt like years ago but it was only last month. I took a big sniff smelling his scent on it. "Thank you" I said with a big smile on my face.

"Now come here." He said with open arms. I laid my head on his chest while he wrapped his arms around me. The sun was about to set and the sky looked incredible. It was slowly turning orange and pink.

We watched the sunset in silence but it wasn't awkward we were enjoying each others company. And now it was dark.

"Well what do we do now?" I asked sitting up. He pulled me back down, "Do we have to move, I'm so comfy." He whined. "Yes...because what if an animal attacks us?" I said sitting up and looking around at the trees behind us.

He sat up with me and said, "You're joking right?" I shook my head. "The only thing that's going to attack you is me." He said and began to tickle my sides. I erupted into laughter trying to fight him off of me.

"Jere stop!" I yelled in between laughing. He did and stared at me, he was hovering above me. He looked so good in the little light that was left of the day.

We both had the same idea and connected our lips. I pushed him up so that I could get on top of him. I swung my leg over him, straddling him. I could tell he was used to being in control in these situations.

I felt him grab onto my waist putting me exactly where he wanted. I guided my kisses down to his neck which made him go crazy. I loved that.

We continued to kiss and it would have gotten more heated but my phone started ringing. We pulled away and I saw that it was my mom. You're kidding. I grabbed it and answered.

"Hello?" "I'm surprised you answered, where are you?" "I'm on a drive." "Well come home." "Why?" "Because you aren't staying out late like last night." "Mom-" she hung up.

I turned my attention back towards Jeremiah. He was looking at me with a confused look. "I'm sorry, I have to go." "Why?" I got off of him, "Because my mom is crazy!" He chuckled, "Why does she want you home so early? It's only 10:00." I could tell Jere was a little sad we had to end our date early.

"She got mad I slept over yesterday." He smirked, "I bet she would understand if you told her what we were doing." I hit his arm, "She would have us both killed." I said which resulted in both of us laughing.

A/N: sorry this chapter is a little rushed.
