Mesmerized

this easy for him.
    "I did a lot of thinking last night."
    "And?" She pulled her sweater tighter, refusing to make eye contact with him.
    "Lily, you need to understand how difficult immortality has been for me. I've tried to make the best of it, but most of my years have been spent in misery." 
    She felt her stomach tighten. She inhaled sharply waiting for him to speak the next words. She finally found a boy she could be involved with, and he was going to dump her. That was just her luck. 
    "Spit it out, Jake."
    "I've made up my mind. I've decided that an eternity with you is not long enough. I don’t want to miss a day that could be spent with you."
    "What? You're not breaking up with me?" She was clearly startled.
    Jake laughed. "Breaking up with you? I would be a complete fool to leave you, Lily. I'm sorry I upset you last night. It was just all so sudden. If you had hung around, you would have known I never seriously considered leaving you."
    Lily flung herself into his arms. "I thought I had lost you." 
    "I'm not going anywhere."
    Lily’s heart exploded. She felt safe in his arms. She began slowly kissing different parts of his face and neck. She wanted to feel him next to her, holding her forever. 
    Jake ran his hands down her back and pulled her closer. “I’m sorry if I worried you.”
    She silenced him by meeting his lips with hers and kissing him. “Maybe we should go inside,” she suggested, her body warming up and tingling.
    “You do remember we’re at your parents’ house, right?”
    She leaned back and sighed. “Well, that killed the mood.” She took his hand. “Let’s go inside anyway. It’s cold, unless your body is warming me up.”
    Jake laughed and followed her inside.
    “Mom? Dad?” Lily called out. “Hmmm. Where are they?” She opened the garage door and realized the car was gone. Turning back to Jake, she grinned.
    “What?”
    “They’re not here.”
    He felt excitement race through his body. “Oh.”
    She moved slowly and seductively towards him. When she reached him, she ran her hand up his bare arm. Her heart beat faster and her body filled with desire. She backed him up towards the couch and pushed him down on it. She was over him within seconds, kissing him, caressing him, and being close to him. 
    She started to unbutton his shirt when he grabbed her hand. “Lily! Remember where we are!”
    “But, they’re not here!” She grinned mischievously.
    He couldn’t argue with her. Looking into the most beautiful green eyes he had ever seen and those perfect pouty lips that melted his heart. He lost all will to fight with her and let her start kissing him again.
    She moaned and ran her hands up his bare chest. “I want to make love to you again.”
    Just then the garage door opened and Lily’s dad yelled, “Lily!”
    Lily jumped off of Jake. She looked back and forth between her dad and Jake and blushed. “Sorry. I got carried away.”
    Her dad narrowed his eyes at her. “You need to be more careful.”
    Lily’s mom walked in. “What’s going on?”
    “Our daughter was practically having sex on the couch.”
    “Oh, is that all?” Her mom smiled.
    Lily’s dad looked at her. “That kind of behavior might be okay for you, but she’s only seventeen! What if she got pregnant?”
    The heat rose to Lily’s cheeks even more. She was as red as a lobster. “Dad!”
    “You know what could happen! Neither of you are immune to pregnancy.”
    “Okay, Dad!” She certainly wasn’t going to tell him that they had already made love and had protection. “I’m sorry. I’ll try to control myself better.”
    “It’s in her blood, Gregory. She’s supposed to be this way.”
    “Not at this age! You shouldn't be encouraging her either." Her father stomped off. 
    Her mother shrugged. "He'll get over it. Your father is right. The last thing you want to do is get pregnant at your age."
    "I'm sorry. Jake tried to stop me."
    "I'm sure he did." She smiled sweetly at Jake. "You don't stand a chance against her, you might as well face it now." 
    Jake nodded his head soberly. "I know. I would do anything for her."
    "You two make a cute pair. I'm going to talk to your father and smooth things over."
    "Thanks, Mom." Lily leaned back on the couch and peered over at Jake. "Want to watch a movie?"
    "Sure, but not a chick flick."
    "You can pick." She handed the control to him and let her fingertips linger on his hand. "I would do anything for you too, you know."
    "I know,
