Falling// Jack Avery

46

Once you saw them, you and Allie jumped out of your chairs and ran and had a giant group hug.

"Oh my gosh I've missed y'all so much" You said
"We've missed y'all too" Katie said
"I wish we could've brought y'all with us, it's so much fun" Allie said

Y'all gave each other individual hugs and then they ordered and joined you and Allie at the table.

"Well we've got a lot to talk about" Peyton said and everyone agreed
"Well first up, relationships, what's new?" Rylan asked
"Well, I have a boyfriend named Sam, we met at this minors club and yeah, he's super sweet" Allie said and showed y'all a picture
"Ooo fun, he's cute" Katie said
"Well I'm still single, surprise surprise" Peyton said and y'all laughed
"Me too, but there's a girl I've been getting closer to" Rylan said and showed y'all a picture. It was one of your old classmates that you never really were friends with but she was really nice and pretty
"Well what about you Maddie?" Katie asked
"Wellll me and Jack are official but we aren't telling the fans just yet so keep it on the DL but yeah he took me up to the beautiful area where we had a photoshoot when I first met him and he had a nice little setup and everything and we watched the sun set and it was beautiful" you said
"Oh my gosh that's so sweet" Katie said
"I like Jack, he seems like a nice dude" Rylan said
"Yeah, as long as he treats you right, I approve" Peyton added

Y'all then talked about several other things such as your YouTube channel and just life in general. You stayed in the smoothie shop for atleast 2 hours just talking. Eventually, y'all decided to go to the mall and hangout like you used to. While you were at the mall, y'all took a picture and posted it on Instagram. You captioned it "the crew". As you were walking through the mall, you hit noticed by a few people so you took pictures with them and had short conversations. While you and the crew were messing around in Forever 21, you saw a familiar face and your mood immediately changed. It was Alex, your ex that cheated on you and left you heartbroken. You turned to your friend and they could tell something was wrong.

"Are you Okay?" Peyton asked you and you shook your head no
"What's wrong?" Allie asked
"Alex is here...with the girl he cheated on me with" you said getting angry
"Don't worry about him, you have a new man that's famous, treats you right, and is 100 times cuter. Show him what he's missing" Katie said
"I have an idea" you said and ran to get some clothes

By now Alex had completely noticed you and hadn't said a word. You decided to try on something that would completely make Alex miss what he had and it would hopefully make him feel bad. You told the group your plan and they all agreed so you grabbed a tight fitting red dress that was gorgeous and some shiny heels. Once you had your outfit you looked to see where Alex had went and he was waiting by the dressing room while his new girl tried on her clothes. This was your perfect time. You went into the dressing room and put on the dress and heels and walked out looking better than ever. Your friends were all waiting on you outside and their compliments came in like a flood. Alex obviously saw you and your plan was working.

"Well guys do you think I should wear this on me and Jack's next date?" You asked loud enough for Alex to hear
"It would be perfect, Jack would love it" Katie said while the others were smirking
"Perfect, I think I might get it" you said and grinned as you walked past Alex and back into the dressing room.

You put on your original clothes and grabbed your things and walked out. Alex was still waiting on his girlfriend and you walked right past him and he waved and you just smiled and walked away. Once you got farther away, you started to laugh. You put the dress and heels back and bought the things you already had and left.

"So did my plan work?" You asked your friends
"Definitely, he seemed like he was regretting every decision he'd ever made" Allie said and everyone laughed and agreed
"Well too bad because I have a new and better man, but atleast now he knows he did me wrong" you said

Y'all continued to walk around and shop and you bought a few more things. Eventually y'all left and made plans to hangout later in the week. It was 3:00 pm so you took Allie home and got ready to visit your other grandparents house. You put on some skinny jeans, a nice T-shirt and your slip on white vans. Your hair and makeup was already done, so you sat on your phone and waited. Zach wasn't home yet because his friends were just dropping him off at your grandparents house. Your mom came into the living room and said it was time to go so you and your parents got in the car. While you were at your grandparents house, the conversations were pretty much the same as the night before. Everyone was just concerned about your life in LA, Zach's band and new music, and your boyfriend. Even though the conversations were boring, you still managed to have a good time. A few hours later, you finished up and told everyone goodbye. You, Zach, and your parents got in the car and headed back home. Once you got home, you went up to your room and took off your makeup and put on comfortable clothes. It was around 10:00 so you went downstairs and watched a movie. You popped some popcorn and grabbed a blanket and started your movie. While you were watching, Zach came down and grabbed a blanket and joined you. Eventually at 12:30 the movie ended and you went up to bed. You got to your room and instantly fell asleep. While you were sleeping, you got a phone call. You checked the time and it was 1:30. You checked to see who was calling and it was Jack.

"Hello?" You said sounding like you had just woken up
"Hey Gorgeous, What're you up to?" Jack asked
"Well I was sleeping" you replied still sleepy
"What're you doing asleep so early? It's only 11:30!" Jack said and you chuckled
"Jack, I'm in Texas, it's 1:30 here" you said
"Ohhh duhhh, I'm so sorry" Jack said and you laughed
"Oh It's fine, what are you doing?" You asked
"Well I was about to go up to my room and play fortnite but I thought I would call you before you went to bed but I guess it's a little late for that" Jack said and laughed
"Yeah, just by like an hour or so" you said
"Well I guess I'll let you go back to sleep" Jack said
"Okay I love you" you replied
"I love you too, bye" Jack said and hung up

You put your phone down on your nightstand and rolled over and fell back to sleep.
