My mate, My exception novel Chapter 35

He lays next to my bed and I intwine my hands in his fur.

That night I sleep better than I have any other night of my whole life.

A week later, I find myself in my room getting ready for prom with Jake constantly nagging me.

"Why can't you just cancel?" He asks me pouting. He has already asked me this question over twenty times.

"Because I am not a quitter." I tell him, while concentrating on curling my hair. I plan to do a half down- half up hair-do but I want to curl all of it first. I'm almost done getting ready and Jake has not been helping me speed-up the process.

"What if I just went with you?" He asks, another question he has repeated too many times.

"Because you don't have a ticket and you can't buy them last minute."

"I don't need a ticket to crash a prom." He tells me winking at my reflection in the mirror as he gets up. He usually isn't allowed in my room but since I had to get ready, my mom consented. The only contingency is that I leave the door open.

As he stands behind me he wraps his arms around my waist. Against my wishes, he pushes my hair to the side and kisses the side of my neck. I bite my lip as to not let out a moan. I know he's doing this to prove a point, so I do my best to ignore him.

When I'm finally done I pull part of imy hair up and spray a whole lot of hairspray on it. The fruity, sticky spray causes Jake to step back and cough.

"Now I need to put on my dress, so you need to step out." I tell him.

He grabs my hand and pecks my lips, then turns. Before he's out the door he mumbles something I barely catch. "It'd be so much more fun if I'd stayed."

I roll my eyes. I make my way to my closet and pull out my royal blue dress. The dress is sleeveless, but the blue part looks strapless. Above the blue strapless part was a see through netting that is sparkly. There is also a sparkly belt just below my chest.

After securing my dress on my I hunt my shoes down. I find my high pair of sparkly silver heels and strap them to my feet. Then I make my way down the stairs.
