It has been twomonths and Jake has turned the way opposite. I mean, seriously? Where did all his black clothes go? Does popularity really change you a lot? Apparently it does, a lot. It was just like if yesterday we were all talking about music, but now he’s always with football team. This is really getting on my nerves!
As I entered homeroom, I felt that something wasn’t right. Jake and Roy were missing, and so was Samantha. Melinda sent me curious looks as I sat down behind her. Today she had been wearing her white skinny jeans with a purple slim T-shirt that said ‘If you can’t stand me, well we might have a problem!’, that matched her dark purple flats.
“Hello? Selena to earth, do you read?” said Melinda with a questioning look.
“Hey, any news?” I asked her as she sent me a slight scowl. She nodded as a smirk came up her face. I can always trust Melinda to have the latest gossip.
“Three, actually.” She pointed to the three empty seats where Jake, Roy, and Samantha sat.
“Do you know where they are?” I asked while raising an eyebrow.
“No, but I know they ditched class,” she said and shook her head, “I’m going to kill Jake when he comes back.”
“Yeah, so am I.” I turned around and faced the front. I couldn’t imagine where they would be, especially Roy with Samantha. This made me angry. I stood up and ran out of the room. I heard Melinda call my name but I ignored it. I was going to find Jake.
I was outside in the parking lot looking for Jake’s car. I wasn’t surprised when it wasn’t where we parked this morning, so I crossed the street and kept walking. After about 10 minutes later I found the car. It was parked in front of OUR favorite ice-cream parlor.
My hair was messed up because of the wind outside so I wasn’t sure if I wanted Roy to see me like this. “No, you’re not here for Roy, you’re here for Jake,” I thought to myself. When I walked inside, I saw him. That bastard had his arms around her waist while Lily’s arms were around his neck. Jake was practically eating her face!
“Jake!” He turned around breaking their kiss. I made a very deep scowl.
“Selena? What are you doing here?” he asked, pushing Lily away.
“Maybe I should ask you the same question!” I felt other older people staring at us but I didn’t care.
“Look, I’m sorry, I-”
“I don’t wanna hear. Just shut up and drive me back to school,” I interrupted. I gave him a demanding look and he did as he was told. “Sorry guys, see ya later!” he said waving at the group.
“Bye-bye honey bun!” Lily yelled. God, I hate her irritating voice! Jake sent her a kiss and I pulled him over to the car.
The rest of the ride was silent. There wasn’t really much to say, and I knew he was just going to keep apologizing so I kept quiet. Suddenly he skipped the school and kept driving. I turned to look at him with a confusing glare.
“Uhh, Jake?” I asked in confusion.
“Yeah?” he replied, not taking his eyes off the road. I noticed that he had taken his piercings off.
“School is over there,” I said pointing to the back.
“I know” He still wouldn’t look at me.
“Well, where are we going?” He didn’t reply but he kept driving.
I didn’t know where he was going. I kept asking but he wouldn’t answer. Suddenly he pulled over in front of an abandoned house that seemed somehow familiar. He turned to look at me and sent me a slight smile. I felt butterflies all over my stomach, stupid hormones! He’s my freaking best friend! Or so I think he is.
“Do you remember when we were in middle school? How this used to be our secret hiding place?” He turned to the house. Oh yeah! I remember now!
“Umm, yeah. But why are we he-” He put a finger on my mouth to shut me up. Nice.
“I hope you don’t mind but……… I asked Lily out for the Halloween Dance.”
“What!? But this is our place! And we always go to the dances stag!” Okay, I was mad now. How dare he ask someone else to the dance in our special place?!
“Yeah, sorry.”
“Take me home. I don’t want you to talk to me anymore.” I scowled at him and turned away, facing the window on my side.
He kept asking me what was wrong, but I ignored him. I can’t believe he just did that! He would also poke me but I would slap his hand away. There was no way I would forgive him for messing up our place. Where we all shared secrets. Then he parked on my driveway and I got out and slammed the door.
“I hope you really think about what you just gave up!” he yelled from his car and drove off. I might have pissed him off, but he deserved it.
I checked my iPhone to see if I had any messages. 4 messages from Melinda:
(Melinda) Dude! Where r u?! xxMelii!xx
Answer me! xxMelii!xx
Hello?!! xxMelii!xx
Call me if u need anything! Apparently ur 2 busy! xxMelii!xx
I texted her back saying that was fine and that I was with Jake. I was tired and hungry. I can’t remember the last time I ate a full plate. I went to the kitchen to grab a sandwich when I heard my phone ring. I ran upstairs to get my phone.
“Hello?” I said into the speaker not bothering to check the caller ID.
“Hey, Selena? It’s me Charlie.”
“Oh! Hey! Why are you calling me?”
“Well I saw you at school this morning, and now you’re not here. Are you okay?”
“Oh, yeah I’m fine. Just a bit lonely.”
“Do you want me to come over?”
“Uhh, no. It’s fine.”
“Don’t worry, I’m coming over.” He hung up.
That was strange. In a way, I did want some company, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted it from Charlie. I went upstairs to my room and turned on my radio all the way up so I could hear it downstairs. The song Sanitarium by Metallica was playing. Then I not a split second passed when the doorbell rang.
I ran to the door, knowing that it was Charlie. “Well you got here fast,” I said as Charlie came in.
“I heard that you’re not going to the dance with Jake,” he said smiling. His brown eyes staring into my grey eyes. I felt my heart beat faster and my stomach was flipping.
“Yeah. I guess I’ll have to go alone,” I replied, not taking my eyes off of his.
“You can come with me, you know.”
“Really?” he nodded, “thankyou!” I smiled and gave him a hug. I was so tired I wanted to melt into his arms and fall asleep but I can’t. He’ll think I’m weird. The he backed off a little and bent down leaving only two inches from my face to his. I wanted so badly to close the distance now but I didn’t, he did. He kissed me, his lips feeling soft on mine. My heart was skipping way too many beats, I think I would have died. He nibbled on my lower lip, and I let him in, letting his tongue take over. It was a slow sensual kiss that got interrupted my cellphone ringing.
“Oh, sorry,” I said as I picked up the phone and clicked the green button.
“You are in some serious problems young lady! I know you skipped school and you are going to suffer the consequences once I get home!” My mom yelled from the other line then she hung up.
“Shoot. Now I’m in trouble,” I said as Charlie’s eyes and mine met.
“Don’t worry. You can hide at my place.”
“Naw, I have to deal with this. But thanks for the offer anyways.” I smiled and him as he gave me a peck on the cheek, leaving it burning.
“Well, you’re always welcome. I have to go, Lunch break is almost over,” he smiled and went over to his dark blue car. He waved goodbye and left in his car, leaving me alone again. But I wasn’t as lonely as before. I was happy. But it was going to get ruined once mom got home.
I ran upstairs and lowered the volume from the radio. Now the song Headstrong by Trapt was playing. I changed and put on some baggy clothes, a black plain V- necked T-shirt with some blue sweats under. I quickly took out the sheets from my bed and laid down, humming along to the song. Then I was asleep.
