Girls Like me.
Chapter 4.
“Maybe we were just hearing things.” I whispered to Jake, as we sat in the bin, squished together.
“Yeah, maybe-“
All of a sudden, the sound of a door busting open came from downstairs.
I clenched my teeth, trying to be as mute as possible.
I shot a worried look to Jake, holding back the urge to burst into tears.
“I don’t want to go to jail, Jake.” I whispered in a pained voice.
“Bree, we’re going to be fine.” He whispered back, interlocking his fingers in mine.
Normally, I would have pulled away because of the whole ‘playing hard to get,’ thing.
But not now, no, I was scared to death of getting caught.
“Should I check in here?” I heard an officer’s voice right above us.
I felt my whole body go still, and if even for a second, my heart stopped beating.
Jake quickly clamped his hand over my mouth to keep me from bursting out into sobs.
“Are you kidding me Roy? Do you really think a teenager could fit in that? Let’s be a little practical.” Another officer said sternly.
I felt a wave of relief rush over me.
“That was close.” Jake muttered as the police left the room.
“Yeah.” I admitted. “A little too close.”
I then realized that we were still holding hands.
“Uh, sorry.” I blushed, a little embarrassed, releasing my hand from his.
“It’s fine Bree, really.” He smiled innocently.
Suddenly, I felt his hand brush against my cheek.
“I really missed you Bree.” He began. “And I’m really sorr-“
“There you guys are!” Zoe ripped open the bin’s lid. “I thought the polic—oh, am I interrupting something?”
“Oh, uh, no. We we’re just getting out Jake, right?”
“Right.” He said, disappointment filled his voice.
Great timing Zoe, I thought sarcastically to myself.
“We are never doing something so stupid again.” Ryan said, as we walked back towards Jake’s.
“Agreed.” Jaycie said, shooting an accusing look towards Zoe.
“Well I thought it was exciting.” She said defensively, crossing her arms.
“Put your hands up where I can see them!” A voice screamed from behind.
“Well, if you thought that was exciting,” I began.
“Prepare to be f//king thrilled.”

I suddenly felt myself start to shake.
Not only because I was cold, but because I couldn't lie.
---Bree's POV.
