Summary: Reader gets her period and doesn't realize it till she starts having bad cramps. Jerry helps you out, by being a true gentleman. Giving you medicine, washing your dress, cuddling and making sure you are alright.

You knocked on the wood of the barn to get his attention. It didn’t seem to catch his attention as he was too busy rustling the hay around with a pitchfork. You tried knocking the wood again, hurting your knuckles again. When that didn’t work, you started clearing your throat. First soft then louder. It appeared he was caught up in his own imagination, whistling a bit. – “Jerry!” – you called out as a last resort. Jerry got startled, some hay scooped up in the air as it fell down. Some lost strays of hay falling on his shoulder.

“Y/n!” – Jerry said as the shock wore off. He noticed some hay laying on his shoulder, so he wiped it off. – “Anne is not home.” – he said figuring you came for her. – “I know.” – you replied walking into the barn. Jerry frowned wondering what you were doing here then. – “Nor Marilla or Matthew.” – you let him know.

Jerry set the pitchfork down, leaning a bit against the handle. – “You’ve spied on us.” – he teased with a cheeky smile. It made you pull your shoulders up innocently. – “What are you here for then?” – he asked seeing you smile shyly. His eyes widened with surprise.

“Don’t tell me lovely Y/n you are here to see me?” – Jerry said dramatically gesturing at himself. – “If you are taunting me, I’m not.” – you answered already turning on your heel. Jerry dropped the pitchfork, running over to you. – “Non, non Y/n you shall stay.” – he made clear taking you by the wrist and holding you in place. His reaction made you laugh as you could never stay mad at him.

You let Jerry pull you further into the barn. – “I just have to finish this up and then I am free for you.” – he spoke letting go of your hand. – “I’ll help.” – you suggested picking up some hay from the ground. Jerry quirked his eyebrow up at you. You threw the hay around with a sheepish smile as it made Jerry snort loud. – “Don’t laugh.” – you made clear trying to glare at him.

It made Jerry snort even louder at your face. His laugh made you laugh as well. – “You can sit over there.” – Jerry pointed at a barrel. – “And watch me work. It will be faster.” – she spoke. You obeyed sitting down on the barrel. Jerry winked your way before diving back into the work. You watched how he worked. Fast and organized. Scattering the hay around for Belle, the horse. She needed a warm bed after all.

You were kicking your legs back and forth while humming a song. Jerry started to whistle along with you, occasionally looking over his shoulder to you. – “How is school Y/n?” – he asked to make some small talk. – “Alright.” – you answered stroking your skirt. Removing any wrinkles by hand. – “How are you Jerry?” – you asked in return making him laugh. – “Good Y/n.” – he replied with a chuckle.

Jerry continued to work as you looked around. Blinking a few times thoughtfully, you weren’t sure what you were suddenly feeling. A sense of something brewing. Bubbling inside of you. It took you a few seconds to actually feel the discomfort coming from your stomach. Furrowing your brows, you rubbed your hand over it.

A numb pain let itself know as you felt it squeeze your inside. Making you grab for your stomach. Where was this stomach-ache suddenly coming from? The discomfort grew as it made you cross your legs, bending a bit over to press your hand deep into your stomach.

“You okay?” – Jerry asked having looked over his shoulder to you. – “Fine…” – you answered with distress on your face. – “Liar.” – Jerry spoke back as he suddenly saw you winch from the pain. He let his pitchfork fall into the hay, making his way over to you. – “Where is it hurting?” – he asked with concern.

Your muscles contracted as you panted loud from the pain. Then your eyes widened. Feeling a sudden wetness between your legs. It made you jump off the barrel. You turned a piece of your dress to the front, gasping at the redness of it. Jerry saw it too, making you pull it embarrassed back.

It was your period. – “I…I…I…I’m so sorry.” – you stuttered out feeling uncomfortable and embarrassed. Your cheeks flushed with heat wanting to sink through the ground from shame. You started to make your way to the open gate of the barn to disappear.

“Y/n it is alright.” – Jerry said calmly following you. You started crying feeling stupid and ashamed that he had to see that. Another wave of pain came as it made you flinch at the pain. – “I…I’ll just go home.” – you breathed out not wanting to saddle Jerry with you. You were a mess and you felt like one. – “Non!” – Jerry said firm, grabbing you by your arm.

He started pulling you out of the barn towards the house. – “You are in pain. I will take care of it.” – he said leading you up to the house. He pushed the door open, letting go of you. You stood a bit lost in the room, hands against your arms, blocking your chest. Sniffling loud, you looked embarrassed away. Embarrassed that you had your period around Jerry. A boy!

Jerry started searching the cabinets as he found nothing. He then left for another room, leaving you alone. Feeling disgusted from the wetness between your legs, you felt it leave a thin line of blood going down your leg.

Jerry returned holding some small boxes as he took you again by the arm. He led you up the stairs. Leaving you in the bathroom. There you saw yourself in the mirror. Face red from crying. It made you wipe some sticky hair out of your face and trying to be presentable. What would Jerry think of you now? Jerry returned with a dress. – “Here is it Anne’s, but you can use it for a moment.” – he commented holding it up to you.

You accepted the dress. Jerry then placed the little box on the sink. – “Those are medicine Marilla gives to Anne when she has it.” – Jerry explained. – “I’ll let you change clothes. Do you know what to do?” – he asked. You nodded wiping your cheek dry. Jerry nodded already closing the door. Once shut, you stared a bit lost around you. Till you slowly started to undress.

Sobbing a bit, you cleaned yourself, washing up. You did what you had been taught to keep your dress from staining more. By wrapping extra protection around your waist. Then you took in the medicine for the pain. You gently knocked on the door, letting Jerry know you were done.

Jerry opened the door, taking your blooded dress from you. – “I’ll wash this up so it will be clean when you go home.” – he spoke wanting to disappear again, but you stopped him by calling his name. – “Jerry!” – he paused. – “How… how is it that you know so much? What to do and stuff? I mean you are a boy…” – you spoke. Jerry chuckled. – “I have sisters Y/n.” – he simply said before shutting the door once more. Jerry went downstairs to wash your dress.

Put it in the sink and wash the stain out. You left the bathroom, going down the stairs. Nearly below you stopped to admire Jerry washing your dress. He almost got the stain out, scrubbing hard with soap. When he was done, he turned around, noticing you on the stairs. He smiled lovely at you before heading outside to leave your dress to hang and dry.

He returned, taking your hand to lead you further down. – “How are you feeling?” – he asked concerned leading you into the living room. – “Better, thank you.” – you replied. Jerry sat you down as he came sitting beside you. He wrapped an arm around you. You snuggled closer to him, pulling your legs up with you in the sofa. – “Thank you… for taking care of me.” – you told him, looking up. – “Always lovely Y/n.” – Jerry responded looking back at you.

“I’d care for you a hundred times. I’d wash a thousand dresses if you like. I don’t want to see you in pain or discomfort.” – he told you touching your chin. Lifting yourself a bit up, you neared him. Bringing your lips to his to kiss him. Not just to thank him, but because you actually cared and liked him. Jerry kissed you tenderly back. Then the two of you snuggled closer, cuddling till you no longer had any pain and your dress was dry to change back.

baby, it's cold outside

pairing: jerry baynard / buote x gn!reader

summary: jerry helps keeping your hands warm

"i'm freezing… i don't think i can feel my hands anymore!"

you whined, rubbing your hands together and blowing hot air onto them, in an attempt to keep them from freezing in this cold winter weather.

jerry smiled softly and watched, your cheeks red from the cold air around you.

"you can have my gloves, if you'd like!" he suggested and slipped off his gloves from his hands, reaching them out towards you. "they'll keep you warm"

"oh no, keep them! you'll just get cold yourself!"

you gently pushed the gloves away and shook your head as you spoke. you couldn't accept his gloves if it meant jerry would have to freeze instead of you!

"then…" jerry put his gloves back on as he spoke, before reaching his hands out towards you once more. "how about i hold your hands to keep them warm~?"

You're the One

Jerry Baynard x f/Reader

Main Masterlist ♡ Anne With an E Masterlist ♡ Jerry Baynard

Just like all my other stories, this has not been proofread, but please enjoy.

Not good at making up titles, so I am so sorry.

Gifs & photos do not belong to me.

Have no idea if anyone will read this, just really wanted to write for Jerry Baynard.

There will be a part 2.

Jerry Baynard's POV:

I was eating my lunch that my Mother made when Matthew came rushing over to me.

"When you are done Jerry, I need you to head over to Lynde's Hollow."

"I thought that place is empty Matthew ever since Mrs. Lynde moved here?"

"It was. She sold it to a family that wanted to move to Avonlea but did not want to wait for a new house to be built."

"What do I need to take over?"

"Just this note and a pie that Marilla made to welcome the family, but I will need you to hurry back."

"Oui Matthew." I said as he walked away from me. Probably to go in to grab some lunch with Marilla.

I finished my food quickly and I was off to Lynde's Hollow. It wasn't very far and it is a nice summer day.

Usually Anne would of joined me but she was at the Barry household since all her chores were done.

I tried not to think about Diana Barry and how she broke my heart. I wish she understood the pain she caused.

Made me feel like a I was just a plaything to her. Rich people and poor people like me do not mix well.

I came to a stop infront of the house and I noticed plenty of children running around out front and an older woman sitting on the front porch talking to a younger woman who looked to be closer to my age.

"Bonjour." I called out.

"Hello." The older lady said as she stood up.

"My name is Jerry and I work for the Cuthbert family over at Green Gables. I have this note and this pie made by Marilla Cuthbert."

I handed the two items over and she read through the note.

"What does it say Mother?" One of the younger children asked.

"I have been invited over for some tea to get to know the women of Avonlea this Friday. Jerry if you don't mind telling Miss Cuthbert that I will be there."

"Of course not Madame..." hmm I don't even know the name of this family.

"Ohh I am sorry dear, my name is Lottie L/N. Children stand in line so I can introduce you all."

I watched in amazement as the children seemed to line up, youngest to oldest. The woman who seems to be close to my age was the oldest.

"From youngest to oldest is Howard, Silas, Clara, Robert, Della, Ralph, Simon and Y/N. The children from Della to Y/N will be joining you at the school house next month."

My face went red when Mrs. L/N said that. "I am..I don't go to school Madame."

"Oh I am so sorry dear. I just assumed."

"No worries Madame. I must be going."

"Nice to meet you Jerry. I hope to see you around some time." Y/N said as she stepped out of the line up.

I could feel my cheeks heating up and I muttered under my breath at her.

As I rode away in the cart, I heard the other children saying good bye, but the only voice that stuck out was Y/Ns.

Y/N'S POV:

My eyes barely left Jerry until he was he completely out of my line of sight.

I felt someone slap my arm and I looked over at my Mother. "May I ask what that was for?"

"You ogling a boy you just met. You were raised better than that Y/N." She said as she walked into the house, carrying the pie and putting it on the counter.

"Sorry Mother. I couldn't help myself. His French accent was so sweet."

"Yes, it was a nice accent. Sad to think that young man does not get proper education." My Mother said.

See my Mother was a school teacher before she married my Father and believes that every child should be able to go to school.

"Maybe there is something we can do."

"And what can we do dear?"

It is now Friday and my Mother went to have tea with the women of Avonlea.

I thought on it. I have no idea yet.

I was watching my Brothers and Sisters when the idea just popped into my head.

I was so excited that I could hardly contain my excitement when Mother came home.

"Mother I have an idea."

"Let me at least take off my hat and gloves dear."

I waited for her to get settled in her chair in the family room.

"What is your idea Y/N?"

"Okay, so you know how we have to many servants now that we have moved to Avonlea?"

"Yes."

"Why don't we have one work for the Cuthbert family. They are under contract here, so they will still be getting paid by us."

"And what of Jerry? Obviously he is working because he has too Y/N."

"Father and you were going to hire someone for weekend work at the new store, hire Jerry. I will work with him until he is comfortable enough to be on his own."

"Hmm I will talk it over with your Father and see what he says. If he says yes, then I will talk with Matthew and Marilla."

I know my Father will say yes. He is always wanting to give people a chance, and Jerry Baynard deserves this chance.

All through dinner I waited for Mother to say something to my Father, but I knew she would ask him in private.

I have no idea what he said because they gave no indication if he agreed to it or not.

Jerry Baynard's POV:

It has been a few weeks since I ran that errand for Matthew. I got to Green Gables not too long after sun rise when Matthew called me to into the kitchen.

"Good morning Marilla. Good morning Matthew." I said as I took a seat at the table.

"Good morning Jerry. We have some news for you."

"News?" I was confused.

"Yes news. We are letting you go but have secured work for you with the L/N family. I know Mrs. L/N is waiting for you right now."

"Did I do something wrong? You will still need help around here Matthew."

"Jerry, you did nothing wrong and do not worry about me. I already have someone lined up. Now off you go Jerry and please stop by for a visit any time." Matthew said as he shook my hand goodbye.

Marilla gave me a hug, which I am shocked at.

I made my way to what is now known as L/N's Hollow.

I knocked on the front door once I made it there and Y/N opened there. "Bonjour Jerry."

I couldn't help but smile at her. "Bonjour Y/N. May I come in?"

"Yes, we have been waiting for you. Please come in." She said as she stepped to the side to let me walk in. Y/N closed the door behind me and showed me where her mother was.

"Good morning Jerry, please have a seat. Y/N. Please leave Jerry and I alone."

I took a seat across from Madame L/N.

"Tea?" She offered. I said yes as I am thirsty from the walk.

"Now Jerry, I am sure you are wondering why you are now working for us."

"Oui Madame."

"See Jerry, I was a school teacher before I married my husband and I believe all children should have an education. So my husband and I have hired you for weekend work at our shop we have opened up."

"But Madame, I need to work many hours to help my family."

"Yes, I figured that was the case, but do not worry. You will be paid well and make more than you did at Green Gables. I can assure you that working just for the two days at our Toy Store, you will make more each pay day then you did two months of working for them."

My eyes bugged out of my head.

"On one condition Jerry?"

"Condition?"

"Yes Jerry. I would like for you to go to school."

I felt like I couldn't breath. I am going to school. I will actually be going to school.

"Now I have some other questions if you do not mind me asking?"

She asked me about my life at home and I answered honestly.

I told her all about my siblings and how none of us have ever gone to school.

"Now that just won't do. I would like to meet your Parents. Do you think they would meet with me?"

"Yes."

I went over all the details with Madame L/N and even had lunch with the family. I sat beside Y/N and I couldn't help but smile at her.

Once lunch was over, it was time for me to go home. Y/N decided to walk with me until we got to the end of the path.

"Your Mother told me that this was your idea. Thank you Y/N."

"We wanted to help some way. I am like my Nother in believing every child should have a chance at an education."

We talked more about our families until it was time for me to continue on my own.

"Remember to ask your parents if they would like to meet with my Mother."

"I will not forget." I started to walk away when I heard her call my name. I turned around and Y/N wrapped her arms around me and gave me a kiss on the cheek.

The only person I have ever had a kiss from was Diana but her kiss did not make me feel like I had butterflies in my tummy.

"Goodbye Jerry."

"Goodbye Y/N." I said as she turned to walk back to her house. I watched until I couldn't see her anymore.

I got home and my Mother was so worried that I got fired, but I explained everything to her.

"Madame L/N would also like to see and Papa when you two have a chance."

"Why does she want to meet with us?"

"I have no idea, but she is good person so I see no harm in going." I gave her my honest opinion.

"I will talk to your Papa when he gets home."

Later on, as my siblings and I were all sleeping in our bed, I couldn't help but try to listen to my parents conversation.

It was hard to hear but I gathered that my Papa agreed to meet them tomorrow evening when he is done work.

I got up the next morning and it was nice not to be in rush for once. I enjoyed spending time with my younger siblings before they had to leave for their own jobs. I left to go and inform the L/N that my parents will be coming over this evening.

I knocked on the door and one of the servants opened the door this time. I informed her I was there to see Mrs. L/N.

She had me wait on the front porch as she went to go and inform her of my arrival.

"Jerry, such a nice surprise, come in." I walked in and closed the door behind me.

I noticed how quiet the house is and started to look around to see if children were anywhere.

"My Husband took the kids to see the new shop. They won't be back until later, but have a seat."

I was disappointed that I would not see Y/N. "I talked to my Parents last night and they will be around this evening if that is okay with you."

"Yes that will be wonderful. We can push back on dinner. Have your whole family here."

"Really? There is many of us."

"Of course, the more the merrier. If you are going to be working with my Husband and Y/N, it would be nice to get to know your family."

My ears perked up. "I will be working with Y/N Madame?"

"Why yes. She will be teaching you how to do things there and please call me Lottie." Madame L/N said with a small smile.

We talked for a bit longer until I had to leave to tell my Mother not to make dinner tonight.

Once I got home I told my Mother what Lottie said.

"She really said bring everyone?"

"Yes Mama."

"Looks like everyone needs a quick bath."

My siblings were not happy about having a bath and putting on some decent clothes. Well as decent as we could.

We left as soon as my Papa and older brother were able to clean themselves quickly.

My family and I rode to L/N Hollow and I could hear my Mama gasp as she took in the house.

I was helping my younger siblings out of the wagon when the front door swung open and out came Y/N and her younger siblings.

"Welcome Baynard Family. I hope you are hungry, dinner is just about ready." Y/L said as she welcomed my family. "Hello Jerry." She said will a massive smile on her face. I couldn't help but smile back as I said hello.

"Simon, please take the children inside while I show Mr. Baynard where to put the horses. Please, right this was sir."

My older brother and younger siblings followed the L/N children into the house.

"What was that about Jerry?" My Mama asked me.

"We get along well Mama." I said to her.

"I just don't want your heart to be broken again."

"I promise you Y/N is different, but we are just friends for now."

It looked like she was going to say something else when my Papa and Y/N came back.

"Please follow me. My parents are looking forward to meeting you."

We enjoyed our dinner and even had dessert, which is such a treat for my family.

My Parents and Y/N's Parents went have a talk in the tea room, to talk about Lord knows what. "Y/L, Jerry if you wish to join us you can." Lottie said.

"Yes Mother." Y/N said as I followed Y/N as I didn't want to be far from her.

Once we were all settled and enjoying the tea, Mr L/N started to talk.

"Now Mr Baynard my Wife tells me Alexandre and yourself are trappers correct?"

"Yes we are."

"I have a proposition for you and your wife. I need landscapers as ours did not come with our family when we moved out here. I asked around town about where you lived and I went to your property and it is beautifully kept."

"Why thank you Mr. L/N." My Papa said. My Mama and him do all the landscaping on our property.

"I do not need an answer right away, but if you agree, let's just say you will not be worrying about money. I pay my employees well."

"But what about the children?" My Mama asked.

"If you would like, they can go to school. They will not have to work."

"Jerry, I would like to talk to Mr and Mrs L/N in private." My Papa said.

"You may go as well Y/N." Lottie said.

The two of us left the room, closing the door behind us.

"Come this way, all the kids are out front." Y/N said as she grabbed my hand.

The two of us ran towards the back of the house and out the back door.

I followed Y/N until she slowed down and sat on the grass. I sat down beside her.

"You know Jerry, I am just going to come out and saw it, but I really like you."

"I like you too Y/N."

"No, I mean I like, like you. Alot."

"I know what you mean." I said as I leaned in closer to her.

Y/N noticed my movement and turned to face me. She leaned in closer to me and our lips were just about to touch.

Only paper rings (Reader x Jerry Baynard)

Requested by: anon, Forever tag: @missmelodramatic, @theletterhart, @alex–awesome–22, @elllie-does-the-posts, @floatlosers, @merlieve, @queen-of-books, @glimmering-darling-dolly, @denkisclown, @automaticbakeryfreakshoe, @meyocoko, @bubblybrianna, @october-leaves, @lvcxifvr

Jerry was pacing in front of the barn, walking back and forth. With a stick in his hand, swayed he it from left to right. Mumbling to himself was he lost in deep thoughts. Thoughts that seemed out of reach to him. A dream he would never experience. A clear warning in his head, mocking him. He sighed, pausing for a moment. Why did all good things had to be out of reach. A jewel beyond his grasp. Jerry lowered his head, closing his eyes for a moment. His heart beating for you. With the stick, started he writing your name in the ground. Beside it drew he a heart. It made him smile, blowing a kiss at your name. – “My Y/n.” – whispered he out, staring dreamingly at your name.

Anne pushed the doors open, walking onto the porch. Carrying a bucket with both hands. Tension on her face, gritting her teeth as she tried to hold the bucket up. Carefully descended she down the steps, trying not to spill. Water splashed up, touching the surface of the bucket. It made Anne hold her breath for a moment, not wanting to spill on the porch. The water calmed down. She carefully placed her foot down, watching the water’s movement very carefully. Touching the ground, exhaled she relieved. No water spills on Marilla’s porch. Now that it didn’t matter that much, walked Anne firmly towards the basin she needed to be. Water splashing over in tiny bits. Darkening the dirt with every contact. Feeling her arms go sore, picked she up her pace. Near the basin, emptied she the bucket. Bringing her hand to her forehead, wiped she some sweat away.

Turning around frowned she at Jerry’s unusual behavior. He was simply standing there instead of working. Ready to give him a piece of her mind, stomped Anne towards him. Her glare folded into a frown, the closer she got to him. She started slowing down her pace, seeing clear lines in the dirt. As silent as she could be, sneaked she. She could vaguely make out some letters, but why would Jerry write something in the dirt. Close to Jerry got she on the tips of her toes, looking over his shoulder down. Her eyes widened at your name written down in the dirt. Jerry sharply turned around, feeling someone breathing down his neck. – “Anne!” – shouted he out in panic. He quickly moved his foot over the dirt, erasing your name. – “What… what are you doing here?” – asked he, nervously rubbing the back of his neck. Anne quirked her eyebrow up with a slight narrow of her eye. Jerry looked down to the stick he was holding, throwing it away with a sheepish snicker. – “Why did you write Y/n’s name?”

Jerry swallowed nervously. – “I…I…” – he puffed, crossing his arms. – “You misread.” – pointed he out. – “Did I now?” – Anne leaned in closer, seeing the shy twinkle in his eyes. Jerry nodded. – “It was French.” – lied he. Anne leaned back, not believing one bit of it. – “I didn’t know Y/n was French…” – said she out loud to herself, tapping her chin. – “I wonder why you wrote her name…” – Anne started circling around him, continuing to tap her chin thoughtfully. – “Is it perhaps because you admire her?” – she spoke, her tone with a hint of mischievous. – “Does she make your heart beat faster? Your hands feel clammy?” – Jerry hastily wiped his palms against his trousers. He didn’t know why he was suddenly paying attention to what she said. – “Make your lips tingle?” – Jerry brought his fingers to his lips, touching them brief. Anne came to a stop before him, poking him against his forehead. – “You like Y/n!” – called she out with a smile. – “Wha… non, I don’t…” – answered Jerry, stumbling over his words. He pushed Anne’s finger away, brushing his hand over his clothing as if he wanted to remove a shiver from him.

Anne sighed with a roll of her eyes. – “You can’t lie to me Jerry. I’m practically a sister to you, and you can’t lie to sisters.” – Jerry gulped loud; his eyes wide. – “Alright fine!” – admitted he with a groan. – “I like her. I like Y/n. Is that what you want me to say?” – Anne slowly nodded. – “Finally, the truth.” – snickered she out. She tapped Jerry against his cheek with her hand, which he slapped away. – “It can never happen…” – admitted he. – “Why not?”

“Because Y/n is rich… and I am not.”

“Love has no price?”

“It does!” – called Jerry out. – “I can’t buy her anything. So… so best to give up on her.” – Anne was astonished by how her dear friend handled it all. – “But… but you love her.” – Anne placed her hand on his shoulder, sorrow in her eyes. – “I never have a chance, Anne.” – corrected he her, brushing past her. Anne swallowed, closing her eyes. She knew what she had to do. She would not let her friend bring himself down like this.

“Anne?” – you frowned, seeing your classmate run towards you. She was waving with her hands, clearly shouting something. When she came closer, reached her yells your ears. She was calling out your name. With one glance over your shoulder towards your house, made you, your way over to her. She came to a stop out of breath. – “I…I… have…to tell… you… something.” – blurted she out of breath. You waited for her to catch her breath, straightening her back. – “Do you like Jerry?” – asked she bluntly. – “What?” – shrieked you out, looking around if anyone was around to hear. – “I need to know Y/n because Jerry thinks he’s not worthy of your love.” – you lashed out, covering up her mouth with your hand. – “Can you keep your voice down!” – bit you at her. You felt Anne mumbling against your hand as it disgusted you. Her lips rubbing against your palms. – “Ieuw!” – called you out, wiping your hands at your dress. – “I just need to know, Y/n. I can’t stand to see him all heartbroken. I can tell he is madly in love with you.” – Anne started to pace around, using her hands to add up to her words. – “He has this weird twinkle in his eyes that makes him look like a fool.” – continued she. – “But he can’t love you because you have money, and he hasn’t. It’s obvious right, you are in different classes, so I find it foolish that he even fell for you.”

Anne kept going on and on, hardly giving you any time to process it. – “Wait! Anne!” – called you out, grabbing her to a hold by her shoulders. – “Jerry… Jerry Baynard is in love with me?” – Suddenly found Anne you a bit suspicious. A soft ‘yes’ escaped her lips, watching your smile grow wider. – “I…I like him too.” – blurted you out, happy to finally tell someone. Exhaling deep, felt you a weight lift from your shoulders. – “Wait you do?” – pointed Anne out. – “Yes!” – exclaimed you loud. – “But…but he has no money… he can never buy you anything nice.” – reminded Anne you. – “I don’t need those things.” – you exhaled soft. – “I would marry him with paper rings. Nothing more. I only need his love to be happy.” – Anne smiled, bringing you closer for a hug. – “You truly deserve him, Y/n.” – whispered she to you.

Standing before Jerry made your palms all sweaty. Anne’s silly arrangement to tell him. Tell him what you told her. He needed to know, was what she insisted on. Now standing here before him, felt you nervous. – “Jerry…” – said you. He hummed loud, gazing dreamingly at you. – “I…Anne told me that you liked me.” – confessed you. Jerry shot a glare over his shoulder to Anne in the corner. She shrugged her shoulders, urging him to continue listening. – “You were not supposed to know that.” – mumbled he out. You took a step closer to him, placing your hand in his. – “I must confess I like you too. Very much actually.” – the words flowing easily out of your mouth. – “You… you do?” – questioned Jerry, seeing you nod. – “With all my heart.” – Jerry smiled, but then he turned his head away. – “I can’t have you, Y/n.” – said he out loud. – “We aren’t meant to be.”

“Jerry Baynard!” – called you out loud, stomping with your foot against the wooden floorboards. It made him jerk his head up, gaping at you. – ��I’d marry you with paper rings.” – said you, bringing his hand to your chest. – “What is that?” – asked he confused. You smiled, touching his cheek. – “It means I don’t need some fancy ring to be yours.” – whispered you to him. – “You truly don’t?” – wanted he to be sure. You answered his question with a kiss against his cheek. – “I truly don’t.”
