~Alex's POV~

About half an hour after Jack, Rian and Cass left, I headed for my house. I decided to wear Jack's jacket; it was warm, and cosy, and although I didn't particularly like him at the moment, I still sort of did. And it smelt of him, so how could I resist?



It had been 6 days since Jack and I had our disagreement, and I still wasn't talking to him. I know I was a stubborn bitch, but I've always had trust issues, so I can't help it. I think I've forgiven him now, after countless times that he's told me he didn't do anything, and the huge amount of calls and texts I've been receiving. I didn't answer any of them. Also, Cass eventually convinced me that he did nothing wrong, so I've decided that I'm going to ask him out for that date that I was going to ask him on last week, but I just didn't know how I was going to do it.

I was sitting in tech with Vic, Cass, and Jess, and Vic asked me the question that had been stuck in my head for days.

"Hey, Alex, have you forgave Jack yet?"

"I think I have." I smiled. "I haven't told him yet, because I don't know how to bring it up. I also want to ask him out for dinner at the same time, but I'm a really awkward person and I just don't know how I'm meant to bring it up into the conversation? What if he doesn't want to be with me anymore?"

"Oh, he does want to be with you, like, a lot. He won't stop talking about you for heavens sake!" Vic answered, and I let out a small giggle.

"Okay, so you guys need to help me. How am I going to ask him?" I looked up at the small group, hoping that they had some good ideas.

"I think you should just straight up tell him." Jess started "Seen as it's last lesson now, ask him tomorrow, and you can take him out that night. Just tell him that you forgive him and ask him for dinner. He's going to say yes no matter what you say, he's totally head over heels for you!" That last sentence made my heart flutter. "Why don't you text him tonight and you can meet somewhere before school tomorrow? Then you'll both be happy when you get here." Jess smiled.

"Oh my god yes!" Cass squealed. "You can both go to your special place and make up!"

"My special place?" I asked, giving Cass a look of confusion.

"Yeah, you know, the park? Jack said you both go together often. It would be super cute!"

"Okay, thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it." Just on queue, the last bell rung, and I headed home.



I was snuggled on the couch watching Adventure Time on my own. It was Jack's favourite programme. Ugh, why did I keep thinking about him? Don't get me wrong, I liked him, like, really liked him, but couldn't he leave my head for at least a minute? Watching the programme that we usually watched together, all on my own, made me sad. I turned it off and headed to the kitchen to find something to cook for tea. I opened the freezer door, to find the insides empty. "Shit." I muttered to myself. I forgot to go grocery shopping. I reluctantly grabbed my keys and left the house; I was really craving pizza today.

I decided to cut through the park where the big oak tree was situated, so I could get to the shops quicker. It was dark now, and there were a few figures walking behind me. I felt like they were following me, for some strange reason. I know they probably weren't, but I had a weird feeling.

"Hey, fag! Where are you off to at this time?" I turned around, recognising the voice, it was Tyler and his clan.

"Leave me alone." I mumbled, trying to get away as quickly as I could. I didn't want anything to do with Tyler.

"You know when I said I would beat you up a few weeks ago?" I kept walking, not looking back, but he continued. "I wasn't being serious, I didn't want to waste my time on some scum like you." I could here the venom in his voice. "But recently, Gayskarth, you've been annoying as hell, and I really feel like hitting someone right now." I started to walk faster. "Get him, boys." I heard Tyler mumble to the other dark figures, and the sound of running footsteps got louder. I started running, trying to get out of the park and onto a street, somewhere busy, so no one could hurt me. The boys eventually caught up with me, and pinned me to the ground. They were varsity players, so they had no problem doing so. My face scratched against the concrete, and Tyler came closer to me. My breathing was heavy, and I could feel a warm liquid trickling down my head, I think it was blood.

"If only your prince was here to save you now." Tyler said pathetically, spitting on my face. I then received a sharp blow in the ribs, and I scrunched up into the fetal position. I heard a crack, and I screamed in agony, but I just heard laughing. Suddenly, something hit my head, and I fell into a bottomless pit of blackness which I couldn't seem to get out of.

Notes

Hey sorry this is up late, I wrote it and then it deleted so I had to rewrite it and stuff. Bit of a cliff hanger, what do you guys think?
