"Nope, I'm quite happy where I am." I smile, sinking further into my bed sheets. I'm dressed in one of Jake's white tee shirts with my grey jogging bottoms underneath. A jar of Nutella is balanced professionally in my lap and I'm currently licking the spoon.

The last thing on my mind is getting dressed.

I watch him leave, carrying my Nutella jar with him and internally cried from the distance he was putting between me and Nutella. How does Jake expect me to get dressed for a

The door opens suddenly and I gasp, dropping down onto the floor behind my bed. I scan the floor, looking for my clothes but they're lying in a crumpled up heap on the other side of the room, out of reach. Great, this could only
