Proving Everyone Wrong
Sixteen
Meg's POV
I woke up the next day and got ready for camp. At 7:30 sharp there was a knock on my door. I opened it and let Jon in. He looked around and sighed, “There are still a lot of boxes in here.”
I took a quick look around the apartment before turning back to Jon and shrugging my shoulders, “Yeah there are but its ok, you really don’t have to help.”
“No. I still want to help. You shouldn’t have to do this all on your own.”
“Whatever, your funeral.” I grabbed my purse and handed him a mug of coffee. I pushed him out of my door and locked it behind me. We spent the ride down the elevator and short walk to his car talking about camp. When we got into the car we lapsed into our usual radio fight. By the time we had gotten to the arena he was listening to his radio station and I had my ear buds in.

After camp we walked into my apartment and dropped onto the couch. A few moments later Jon got up and grabbed some ice from the freezer. He sat back down and handed me some and we both sat with ice packs on our bruises and sore muscles for a while. Finally, I spoke up, “I really just don’t want to unpack again today.”
Jon looked at me and nodded, “I’ll order some food to be delivered and you pick out a movie?”
“Deal.” I got up and searched around for the remote while Jon got up to find his cell phone. He came back a few minutes later while I was searching through the movies on pay-per-view. He threw himself down onto the couch next to me and asked, “So what are we watching?”
“I don’t know yet. I can’t decide.” Then I turned to him and tossed the remote to him, “You decide.”
He looked at it for a minute before sighing and picking it up before scrolling through, “What type of movies are you into?”
“Jon, I will literally watch anything.”
He stopped scrolling and looked at me, “That’s probably the least helpful thing you have ever said.” Then he turned back to the screen and resumed scrolling through the movies.
“Seriously Jon? The least helpful thing I have ever said has to do with a friggin’ movie? Just wait until you get to know me better.”
At that he turned the tv off before facing me and pointing the remote at me and pushing a few buttons.
“What the fuck are you doing, Jon?”
“I want to get to know you better so that’s our movie. We are going to spend the time getting to know each other better instead of watching a movie.”
“Okay, so what buttons were you pushing, mute?”
“Well first I had to turn you on, than I had to turn up your volume so I could hear you better.”
I stared at him in shock while his face slowly scrunched up in confusion, “what?”
“Oh my God, Jon, please do yourself a favor and think about what you just said to me.” He continued to look confused so I had to fill him in slowly, “You said you were turning me on-“ I paused and he nodded for me to continue, “And that you wanted to hear me louder.” He was still nodding, clearly missing the sexual innuendo he had created. Finally losing my patience I spit out, “Jon, sex.” His eyes widened and his mouth created an O.
“Meg, I-I didn’t mean it like- oh my god I’m so sorry I-ugh I can’t believe I just said that.”He put his head in his hands and I started laughing hysterically.
“Jon, its fine, really.” He was still shaking his head.
I was still laughing and clutching my side.
“Well, I’m glad you think it’s funny.” He said sticking his tongue at me.
I stopped laughing enough to reply, “Oh darling, please. That was fucking fantastic; the confusion part at least. If that were a real pick up line that you were trying, I would have kicked you out and told you that you are forever alone.”
He raised an eyebrow and looked at me, “Ouch. You’re harsh! But you know I can always try a real pickup line on you and we can see how it goes.” He winked at me. I had stopped laughing and smiling all together and gulped back a gasp. I was finding it harder to breathe as he continued to stare at me, waiting for me to reply back with some snide remark about me turning him down. Our eyes were locked and I still hadn’t said a word. Just then the doorbell rang and Jon got up and came back in with the food and set it on my coffee table. I stared at it for a minute before looking up at Jon.
Jon’s POV
I had just placed the bag of food on her coffee table when she looked up at me. She hadn’t said a word since I told her that I should try a real pick up line on her and see where that goes. I don’t know why I did it or what came over me but the next thing I knew I had pulled her face to mine and was kissing her passionately. I felt her hands intertwine at the nape of my neck and I grabbed her thighs, pulling her up onto my lap. The kiss deepened and then my shirt had somehow been removed. Her shirt came next and I slowly kissed down her jaw line before placing kisses along her neck and collarbone. She pulled at the hem of my pants and I picked her up and carried her to her bedroom.
Laying her down on her bed I looked down at her. Her hair was spilled out all around her and her eyes were as big and beautiful as ever. Our lips connected again and she pulled our bodies closer together. I broke away and started kissing down her body towards the hem of her jeans. I looked up at her and our eyes locked, “You’re the most beautiful girl I have ever met and I think I’m falling for you.”
She broke out into a grin and replied, “Now that’s a pickup line.” she grinned and shot me a wink.
