Two weeks have passed since Scarlett went to Europe.
"Hey Sam, if you keep groaning, I can’t sleep in peace," I complained to my companion beside me.
She mumbled something inaudible.
"Are you okay, Sam?" Pippa asked, though not with much concern.
Sam grunted again.
"You know that’s ...
2025-11-09 11:41:43 +0000 UTC View Post"So this is it" I said, smiling at Scarlett and holding her hand.
"It was a nice two months" she replied.
"Nice??!" I gasped, offended. "You spent two months with the incredible me!!" I pointed at myself for emphasis
She bit my lips then kissed me deeply.
Catching my pensive look after the kiss, Scarlett asked, "What’s ...
2025-11-05 10:15:15 +0000 UTC View PostThe next day, I was at Robby's house returning the bowls he had taken the night before (though honestly, I just wanted to see their reactions).
"How come you got scrambled eggs, and I got a 'make yourself'?" Jackson grumbled to me. He was still clueless about forgetting his dad's birthday.
I just shrugged at him.
A moment later...
2025-11-02 10:52:33 +0000 UTC View PostI was having breakfast while reading the newspaper. On the front page of the LA Times:

Scarlett walked into the kitchen. "Morning, Lettie," I greeted her as she kiss...
2025-10-30 11:20:57 +0000 UTC View PostScarlett turned to me, since I had just shaken her hand.
"Huh, so even the great Jake has someone he can’t resist?" she smirked.
"Whoa, who?" Carly asked with interest, trying to see who I was looking at.
"Jake, I loved this dress you bought for me," Britney said as she approached me, Nathalie waving beside her.

"The idea consists of 'hiring' girls from 16 to 30 years old to promote JD products. It won’t be a proper job, but more like being an ambassador.
Unlike the Red Bull girls, our idea is not just to promote Monster,...

(everyone wears it, especially because of the cameras and lights. Without anti-shine powder and such, you can look pretty strange on video).
Pepper finally showed up.

2025-10-22 12:30:36 +0000 UTC View PostI woke up and went to have breakfast. When I got to the kitchen, only Joey and Michelle were there.
"Morning," I said, "where is everyone?" I asked, still half-asleep.
Joey waved at me since his mouth was full.
"They’re all already at the salon," Michelle replied.
Yeah, everyone came back to the house again, but this ti...
2025-10-21 13:39:00 +0000 UTC View PostPepper and I talked a little more, exchanging some other ideas.
Then she went to hug Paige and wish her a happy birthday (along with giving her a present), since she wouldn’t be able to attend the party the next day.

2025-10-20 11:57:02 +0000 UTC View PostA few days after the Tomorrowland frenzy, Pepper and I were talking at my house in Santa Monica.
“Beats was an even bigger explosion than I expected,” I commented while looking at the sales report. “190 thousand units in just a few days.”
Pepper nodded, “Way beyond what I was expecting. We’ll need to bring shipments by ai...

We were all sitting at the table talking while Mom poured wine for the adults.

2025-10-16 13:30:40 +0000 UTC View PostAfter Dylan’s 'wish' song, we all went to dinner and the mood calmed down a bit. Gramma finally took on the role of host.
Normally she would be irritated about being sidelined, even though she had organized the dinner, but the circus was so funny that she didn’t seem to care this time.
We made DeDe sit on one side, and Gloria on ...

"Hi, Jay. Gloria." DeDe greeted with a forced smile.
"What is she doing here?" Gloria’s voice carried both surprise and irritation.
"What does she mean, 'what is she doing here?'" DeDe looked at her son, clearly puzzled. "Mitchell told you ...

“Tiring because of the research,” Paige replied, “but I really love it. The people I’m working with are amazing.”
“What research are you doing?” Alex showed great curiosity and interest.
“It’s about graphene, a material we once thought was only theoretical, impossibl...
2025-10-13 12:41:23 +0000 UTC View PostWe were heading back home in Santa Monica.
"So you told Claire about her mom (that she was going there, to her house)?" I turned to my mother.
She gave a nod.
"At this very moment she’s probably already opening a bottle of wine..." I muttered.

“Isn’t Lily cute?” I asked while she rested in my arms.
“She sure is,” Scarlett replied with a smile, playing with Lily’s tiny fingers.
Then I noticed something. “Mom, I know you want to hold Lily, she...

“So, what are you guys talking about?” I asked.
“About my daughter dating Jake,” Robby muttered, a bit frustrated.
Alan and Charlie glanced at me at the same moment.
“Not me!” I protested indignantly. “I already told you I never had anything with Miley. Besides, I’m ...
2025-10-08 13:58:43 +0000 UTC View PostI was sleeping peacefully when I woke up and saw people gathered around my desk. Carly, Freddie, Cara, Ravi, Lauren, Cher, and Regina. Pippa was sitting next to me and Sam was still sleeping as usual.
"Hey guys, I was just sleeping, you don’t need to crowd me like it’s a funeral," I joked.
Pippa snorted.

I was sprawled on the couch, Scarlett resting her head on my chest, one of her arms wrapped around me.
"Jake, can I ask you a question?"
"Yep, shoot it," I replied, still watching the movie.

I handed over two microphones, one for each, and the two greeted the crowd. The audience responded with excitement, but nothing overly fangirl (mostly because people were clearly trying to hold back — probably many of them w...

I tilted my head, noticing another blonde on the dance floor, though this one was fake. “Why is Hannah Montana here?” I questioned, genuinely confused.
Missy chuckled...
2025-10-01 10:26:50 +0000 UTC View PostAfter everyone went inside, only Mikayla stayed behind.
I narrowed my eyes at her, "you totally did that on purpose, just to see their reaction. You need to stop hanging around with Sam and Paige, Mikayla, they’re bad influences."
She snorted, "they said they learned it from you."
"Defamation!" I defended myself.

I gave her a wide grin.
"Are you kidding, right?" she asked again.
