Promises

Chapter 8

Jack Gs POV

I messed up. I messed up bad. Why did I ever say that. Why did even say anything back. I should have just hugged him. I'm so stupid.

I decided I needed a break from school and its Thursday so I'm probably just gonna skip school tomorrow. I can't handle any of this.

I watched as Jack walked slowly into the library. I sat in the halls doing nothing. Some teachers asked what I was doing and I just ignored them. We had a free period right after lunch on some days.

I picked my head up and saw Jack walk out of the library with red cheeks and red eyes.

I stood up quickly and walked over to him. I was starting to cry just looking at him.

"Jack I'm so sorry I didn't mean it that way. Please don't be mad at me." I said as I put my hands on his waist.

"I forgive you." He whispered almost enough that I would t hear him.

"Thank you so much!" I said and wrapped my arms around his small frail body and picked him up just a little.

I heard him giggled and that made me smile. Whenever I touched him I felt this amazing feeling in my stomach. Almost like there was fireworks.

"Jack?" He asked I hummed in response.

"Promise me you will be safe. I don't want you to get hurt from my brother. He could be watching us and we will never know until something bad happens." He said

"I promise." I whispered and pulled away to look into his eyes. I stared for a few seconds and then boom it happened.

I kissed him. I kissed Jack Johnson. It's not what it felt like before its... Different. It feels better.

"I love you Jack Johnson." I said

"I love you too Jack Gilinsky." He said back.

"Let's go we have to get to class." I said and grabbed his hand.

"But I don't want to." He whined

"Cmon its the last class of the day." I said

"Fine." I groaned and I had to drag him to his locker.

"Please just get your things and I will be back." I told him and left to go to my locker.

I walked up to my locker and did my combination and opened it. A note flew out.

"What?" I asked myself and I picked it up off the ground and opened it slowly. It read,

Hello Jack! I see you got the note! I bet your asking yourself who wrote this? Well let me tell you! It's Tyler Johnson! And jack told me that you too have a thing. I hope you know that if you go near him bad things will happen. Really bad things. And your now probably wondering like what type of bad things? Like I don't know... Perhaps going to the hospital would be one. Well good talk Jack! Bye!

I folded back up the note and whipped a tear that was rolling down my cheek. I placed it in the back of my locker and grabbed my books and my phone.

"Jack your taking for ever!" I heard little sweet and innocent Jack say from behind me.

"Um sorry." I said a let out a sniffle.

"What's wrong baby?" He asked putting his small hand on my books.

"N-nothing lets go." I said sternly and we walked to class.

Jack Js POV

Jack isn't acting like himself. I tried talking to him and being sweet but he doesn't really want to tell me what's wrong.

Class was almost over and I was ready to go home. I wanted to walk home with Jack and be with him but with Tyler there I can't do anything.

"Alright class is dismissed!" Out teacher said and I packed up my books and darted out of the classroom.

"Jack!" I yelled chasing after him.

"Please wait up!" I yelled but he was gone.

Did I do something? Maybe I did... I'm so stupid. I messed up. He wouldn't run away if I didn't do something.

I walked slowly to my locker and opened it. I grabbed my things and rushed out the door.

I didn't really want to see anyone right now so instead of walking home I walked to an old park. Nobody else was here.

I felt calm here. It felt right.
