Happy little accident - ME! (reading e books TXT) 📗

Jamie! Are you busy tonight?” Charlotte’s voice give me chills every time she spoke, it’s so annoying, it makes you want to punch her in the nose.

“Err Charlotte hi. Yeah I am, with my good old buddy bug.” He swung his arm around me like he was trying to make her jealous. I gave him the ‘what-the-hell-are-you-doing’ look, but he returned the ‘shut-up-and-smile’ look. I wonder why he was trying to make her jealous, did he know that she liked him? Jamie wouldn’t be that cruel, would he?

“With her?” Again, if looks could kill. She looked like she was literally going to jump across the table and attack me. “Fine, but you’re missing out Jamie.” Her attempts at flirting were dull, she was about as sexy as a donkey. But you got to give the girl points for effort and confidence. Jamie didn’t reply just looked down and smiled.

“I should be getting back to Katie, she gets lost without me, I’ll see you tonight.” I didn’t seem to get a reply from him either. Liam, Toby, Greg and Henry all said bye, but Jamie just smiled and waved me off, just like charlotte. Thoughts just burst into my mind; What if he liked Charlotte and he was just using me to make her jealous?

Wait, why am I thinking like this, it’s not like I like him. Or do I? I mean I have known him all my life and Kat is right he is hot, and he has the most amazing personality; His eyes were big and brown which always showed what he was feeling, he had brown hair that was fairly long, kinda like Harry Style’s. He had an amazing body, and a perfect natural tan, you can tell why all the girls wanted him. I have a lot to think about.

“Gracie! Look what Jake just showed me, quick!”

“Where’s the fire! Jeeze” Katie looked at me with her eyebrow raised, so I sat obediently.

“Look at this list all of the boys made; well not all, but the important ones! And you say you’re not hot. We were tied first!” I look at this list, she wasn’t lying. Had the world gone completely mad! Even Charlotte was 3, behind Catlin; who left school just before junior year.

“Wait, why is Catlin on the list, nobody’s seen her since summer; apparently her parents have sent her to a boarding school because they heard about what she got up to in the pool house at your party!” Let’s just say Catlin had a reputation with the boys and some girls according to rumors. Anyway, Katie’s party got a little heated and Catlin spent the night in the pool house with 5 boys and 1 other girl. Katie hates it whenever someone mentions it.

“Please, can we not talk about that, I am scarred for life after walking in on them.” Her face showed genuine disgust. “ Moving swiftly on, you can no longer say no boys like you because this, this proves that your wrong, and Charlottes going to be pissed, she spent all summer trying to make herself more good looking, but turns out she came of the operating table looking like a duck.” I always knew she was fake. I promised myself that I would not have any drama in junior year, but it’s too late, first Jamie and now this list. Can’t a girl get a brake round here?

Chapter Two

When I arrived home, my day got a whole lot worse. I had forgot all about going to Jamie’s house for dinner. I had to face him again. When I was getting ready, I contemplated asking him whether he was using me to make charlotte jealous, but I didn’t want to sound an obsessive freak. I had made my mind up about one thing though; I did like Jamie, and I’ve liked him for a long time, just never came to terms with it because we were so close. I texted Katie to confess my attraction to Jamie, and the only advice she gave me was ‘don’t fart in front of him’ thanks for the help Katie.

My mom dragged me from my room and into the car. “ I don’t know what you’re looking so glum for, you always used to love seeing Mia, Jamie and Max, mostly Jamie.” She winked and gave me a slight nudge.

“Mom. Please, I do not love Jamie. Just because you had a young love; which, bearing in mind that went downhill when you got pregnant, and  dad rarely comes to see the product of the ‘young love’ that you had. Teenagers are just immature. Do you really want me to end up pregnant and alone at the age of 16? Everyone always said I was just like you.” My mood had taken over, and my mouth just let the words fall out. The journey went surprisingly quickly- too quickly. My mom didn’t answer me for a while, I felt bad because I know my dad’s a sensitive matter to bring up. He left when I was 3 and rarely ever sees me, he remarried and I have a half brother. Whereas my mom dated guys, but never met ‘Mr. Right’. Sometimes I don’t think she’s moved on from my dad. My mom’s voice broke the silence.

“I never said you loved Jamie, stop being a stroppy teenager. And leave me and your  father out of this, we were both young and stupid, but yes let’s hope you’re not like me. Don’t be so grumpy, anyways we are here so put a smile on your face and perk up your attitude missy.”

Oh god, I was stood at his door, I have no idea why I'm panicking I’ve stood at this door a billion times. It seemed like this time was different, like I was meeting him for the first time. Let’s just hope that it’s not awkward. Dan had found out that I was at Jamie’s house and he’d not stopped texting me all night, I don’t understand him. Why can’t he just let me move on. Better yet, why can’t he move on. I pushed Dan to the back of my mind, partly because Mia had answered the door and the pounding of my heart blocked out the noise.

“Hey guys! Come on in, we’re in the dining room, dinners almost ready! Aw Gracie you’re going to send my boys wild, you look so beautiful; just like your mommy!” I’m pretty sure she never came up for air. I followed 5 steps behind my mom and Mia, listening to them talk like they hadn’t seen each other in ages. I stopped walking when I heard Jamie’s voice, I felt like I was about to have a panic attack. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME! ‘Gracie calm down, everything is going to be fine, Jamie is just the same as he was before; except he got extremely hotter and has the body of a god but-‘ I shook the voice from my head, only to find when I stopped Jamie was stood laughing at me.

“Bug, what are you doing?” Creeping towards me like I was a crazy person.

“Um there was a bug fly thing, over there..” I pointed in a random direction, hoping that he wouldn’t notice how shaky my hand was.

“I don’t see any bug apart from you but okay then.” Why did he always have to do this to me, his cheekiness made me go all jelly like. “ No I’m just kidding bug, you look beautiful. Did you dress up just for me?” He gave me a wink. Now I feel stupid, I’m not even dress up! All I chose was my black skirt and a white shirt, I just did my makeup as usual and left me hair all loose. I hope he didn’t notice me going red, but just in case, I hung my head.

“Dinners going to be on the table in five minutes!” Jamie’s older brother Max popped his head around the door. Max was the double of Jamie, but older, and more rugged. He’d just finished high school and this was his last days at home because he was going to college. “Hey Gracie, good to see you.” He was so serious compared to Jamie, but when they were together they get very boisterous. I walked into the dining room, to see the room decorated to the nines, like the queen was coming for tea. I sat next to an empty seat, which was soon filled  by Jamie’s god like body.

We had spaghetti Bolognese, my favorite. But I felt self-conscious eating it in front of  Jamie. The conversation was pretty much about Max; his college and his future career plan. Me and Jamie just gave each other sly looks and cheeky grins. I was playing with my food when Jamie nudged me, which ended up me having spaghetti all down my shirt.

“Gracie, I can’t take you anywhere!” She wasn’t being serious, the alcohol had taken the serious side of my mother and shoved it out the window.

“You can borrow one of my shirts bug.” He stood up and walked out of the room, so I followed him cautiously up to his room. When we got there, he rummaged through his top draw.  “Here, this one should be small enough.” He handed me a dark blue t-shirt, and nodded towards the en suite bathroom. The bathroom was surprisingly tidy for a boys bathroom, cleaner than mine. As I unbuttoned my shirt I heard the TV turn on in Jamie’s room, so I quickly put on the t-shirt; didn’t want him to think I was snooping in his bathroom. Jamie’s was setting up his x-box, which was the root to Jamie's whole existence, nothing came in-between him and his x-box. I’d tucked Jamie's shirt into my skirt because it was a bit too long, I thought it looked quite good.

“See, I knew it would suite you.” His voice was like a whisper but I managed to catch what he said. I was kinda flattered. “Do you want a game? I mean I’d whoop your ass but I won’t go too hard on you bug, I promise.” Again with the cheekiness, but this time he seemed to be flirting. I tried not to jump to conclusions, but I couldn’t help feeling a little excited.

“Ha, we both know you suck at this game. Bring it on.” I grabbed the controller playfully from his hand, it felt so good to hang out with him again. It felt like my life was normal again. I obviously won Jamie the first few times, I was the best at COD. He  kept trying to throw me off but I was in the zone. Just as I shot him one last time, my phone buzzed next to me. It was from Dan; ‘WILL YOU REPLY! God Gracie, or are you too busy with Jamie? Next time I see him I swear to god he’ll be sorry and so will you.’ I really wanted to ignore him, but this time I couldn’t. Jamie must’ve noticed my sudden mood changed and he snatched the phone from my hands.

“Who the heck does he think he is! Gracie you’re better off without him, I always knew that he was bad for
