Sorry for not posting in the middle of the week, I wasn't feeling well...I was sick. But I feel better now and I hope that you enjoy this chapter! :D
As always, thanks for the comments! I don't think you know how much they mean to me!
P.S. greenaiko7 just started a new story and could use some readers!
_______________________
Joe's POV:
Sometimes I think it would be easier just to tell Rory how I feel, but then I think about Gray. Their relationship just ended and I don't want to rush Rory, and I definitely don't want to be the rebound guy. I followed her into the kitchen and she looked at the cake.
" I think it' time to add the icing." he smiled.
Jaime stepped up beside her and looked at the cake.
"You made a beautiful cake." Jaime smiled.
Okay, he is mean one minute and then nice the next. I can't stand him! I know that I keep saying that, but it really is true!
"Thanks." She replied.
Rory got the icing out of the fridge and handed me something to spread it on with.
"Do you want to help me Joey?" She asked me.
"Of course." I smiled.
Jaime stepped back and then Rory and I started icing the cake.
"Maybe you guys should go and watch T.V. or something." Rory said nicely to Kevin, Nick, and Jaime.
"Sounds good." Nick said.
"We'll see you guys in a few." Kevin said, while walking into the living room.
That left just me and Rory. I wasn't paying attention when I was spreading the icing, and I accidently got some on Rory's hand. I realized what I did, and we both laughed.
"Nice Joe." She laughed.
She dipped her fingers in the icing and put some on my nose. I laughed, and then I just looked at her.
"What do you think?" I said. "How do I look?"
She laughed, and then we kept icing the cake. It wasn't pretty, but I'm sure it would taste good. After all, Rory made it. She got the sprinkles out of the cabinet and the tried to hand them to me.
"You do it." I smiled. "It's your cake."
"No, it's our cake. You do it." She smiled back.
I reluctantly took the sprinkles out of her hands and spread them across the cake evenly.
"Perfect." Rory said.
Rorys POV:
The rest of the day was perfectly boring. We all ate the cake, of course, and then Jaime, Jacob, and I headed home. The next couple of days were awkward, and that is putting it lightly. Jaime just wouldn't stop coming on to me and it was starting to make things really tense between him and Joe. After reading that journal, I know that Joe loves me, so maybe he is jealous of Jaime. I just wish that he knew how much I loved him. I feel guilty sometimes about knowing how he feels about me. I mean, not only does he not know that I love him, he also doesnt know that I know how he feels about me. Oh, what's a girl to do?
Today should be better though. All of us older kids are going to go to an amusement park. I know that it's kind of lame, but I hope that it will be okay. I didn't really want to invite Jaime to come along, but I didn't have much of a choice. My mom wanted us to include him too, so I reluctantly agreed.
I went up to my room and picked out my outfit for the day. It was extremely hot outside, so I decided to go with some denim cut offs and a tank. I braided my hair and slipped on my favorite gray converse. I grabbed my purse and then threw in a bottle of sunscreen. I didn't want to burn, and I know that Joe will forget to bring his own... he always does! And then he complains about being sore and sun burnt and I would be forced to listen to his whining. It was actually pretty adorable! He is such a baby when he's hurt.
After I was ready I ran downstairs and waited for everyone else. They were all supposed to meet at my house, so all I had to do was wait. Jaime walked down the stairs and sat next to me.
"Nice shorts." He smiled.
"Is all you care about looks?" I asked him seriously.
"No." He said seriously, leaning closer to me. "I see you, you know. You may think that I don't, but I do. You love Joe, I know that. But I don't even think you see how special you are. You are smart and funny and stubborn as a mule, and you don't see it."
Am I crazy, or was that actually a compliment? Did Jaime actually care about me?
"Are you serious?" I asked him.
"Yeah." He leaned closer. "I may be a jerk, but I do think you're special."
"Uh, thanks I guess." I said shakily.

HE DOESN'T CARE! HE'S A FRECKING WOMANISER, you can just see/read it! Ergh Jamie nees to pissy off and Rory might as well should make the first move with Joe, because Joe's such a baby!
Love it and hope you get all better soon :D!
