Hopeless Dreaming
Chapter 17
 

At the end of the day, Jake walked me out to my car and said, "I'm sorry for what I did today. I didn't mean to get that intense with Sean but what he did should never happen again and I had to get the point across to him." I said, "Its okay. I understood why you did what you did. You did the right thing. I love you" He tiled up my chin and gave me a long passionate kiss. He whispered in my ear, "I love you too." I could feel his hands moving down my back. When he was down far enough, he said while smiling, "You have a nice butt." We both laughed and I put my head on his chest. He said goodbye and I jumped in my car. I drove over to see Hope and when I got there I walked in without knocking. Her house was like my second home so I walked in whenever I wanted. I walked in the kitchen and her mom said, "Thank God you're here. Hope's been crying all day in her room." I walked up stairs and knocked on her door. A weak voice said, "Come in." I opened the door and sat down next to her. I gave her a hug and whispered, "Everything will be okay. I told Jacob what happened and he had a little fight with Sean. We all care about you Hope. Even him. He went against his best friend for what was right." She looked up and said, "Really? He did that for me?"
"Yup. We're gonna fix this. The cops know the story and are on the lookout for him. You're not going back to him right?" I said. "Ummm...Well... I think my baby really needs their father. Growing up without a father was horrible and I never wanted my baby to go through that. I want it to have what I didn't have. I want whats best for it." She tried to convince me. "Hope, please, you know that things won't work out after what happened. We are all here for you for help and you will get through this without Sean." I said. I think this was her breaking point and she finally realized that she really didn't need him and that so many people were here for support and help when the baby shows up. I inherited some of my dad's money and I thought about getting a place for just Hope and I. We would have enough space for us and the baby and I would always be there to help out. I told her about my idea and she said, "You would really do that for me?"
"Of course. You in for it?" I asked. "Absoutely. Thank you soo much Maddie. This means so much to me. You have no idea. I feel like a million pounds of bricks is lifted off my shoulders." She said. We gave eachother a long hug and for the first time in a while, I saw her acting genuinely happy. I got a text from Jake saying, "Bored without someone to play football with. Wanna come over?" I asked Hope for permission and she said, "Sure go ahead. You've done pleanty for me. Go have fun! I'll see you later. Thanks for everything" I smiled, gave her a hug, and walked out. I texted Jake on the way to my car and said, "Sure, be there in 5." I rushed over to Jacob's house because I was eager to tell him what happened and to see him. He was waiting on the steps and jumped up when he saw my car pull into the driveway. I got out and he gave me a hug. He took my hand and we walked inside. We sat down in his room and I said, "Hope's over Sean. I promised her that we would give her overwhelming support. Oh and one other thing...I'm moving into another house with Hope. I'm using the money from my dad. I figured she could use the extra space when the baby comes and I could help her whenever she needed it."
"As long as your not any farther away from me, that's cool. And maybe I could, you know...Sleep over sometime." He said with a grin. I chuckled and said, "Yeah if you want to be awake all night with a crying baby." He said, "Well with you it's worth it." I smiled because he never failed to make me feel special and beautiful. I asked him if he would help us when it came to moving day and he cheerfully accepted. He kissed me and not before long, he was inching his hand down my back. I had finally felt completly comfortable with him touching me in places I would never let anyone else. But he earned it- sticking it out with me for two years. He took off his shirt. I was pretty sure I knew what was coming but I didn't want to get into any situation that I couldn't get out of, like Hope. I saw his eight-pack of abs and it was hard to resist. But I knew that things could turn out horrible if I went with this, so I kept it to only making out. He moved his hands up my sides and I rolled on top of him. When we were done, he pulled his shirt back on and said with a smile, "Well that was...fun."
