I shamelessly walked back to the gym to try and meet back up with Jessica. I hadn't seen her since she left to chase after Vinnie at the food bar. I was a good five feet from the door before i heard someone call my name from behind me."Hey Jas!"
I turned around to see it was Vinnie. He ran to catch up to me.
"Hey Vinnie." I said in a saddened tone.
"Whats wrong?" He asked concered.
"Everything."
"Damn im sorry. Well Leroys here if you wanna see him."
"I just got done talking to him."
"Oh shit really? Is everything okay between you guys now?"
"Nope. Not even close. Quite the oposite actually. He told me he never wants to see me again." I said to Vinnie.
I was trying to keep myself together but it was hard. Vinnie quickly pulled me into a hug and rubbed my back. This was all i needed. Somebody to hold me and just be there for me. Im always there for everybody else but nobody was ever there for me. I pulled away from Vinnie and thanked him.
"Have you seen Jess?"
"Yeah like 10 minutes ago. I went to chase after her but i lost her. I was gonna ask you if you had seen her."
"No, the last i saw her, she was headed towards you at the food bar."
"The food bar. Of course." Vinnie had whispered to himself.
"What?"
"N-nothing. Come on." Vinnie disregarded. He opened the gym doors for me and him and we walked in to find Jessica.
Jessicas P.O.V
I was walking around the gym trying to find Jasmine, but couldn't . When i got to the photo booth area, i saw Leroy leaning against the wall with a toothpick in his mouth.
"Heyy Leroy. Have you seen Jasmine?" I said with a few sniffles in between.
"Yeah I've seen her...Check Lukes mouth. Shes gotta way of getting lost in there."
Ouch
"Im guessing that you know." I said fiddling with my fingers looking down at my shoes.
"Yeah." He said tossing the toothpick from his mouth in the trash.
"Sorry." I said in response. I didn't know what else to say about that situation.
"Nah its cool, its not your fault. I just wish she didn't make me feel like crap for kissing Chloe when she was doing the same shit with Luke."
"Chloe?"
"The blonde girl from Melissas party."
"Oh."
"Yeah. Shes such a fucking hypocrite. Look im sorry for dumping all this on you. I know you probably dont wanna hear me bashing your bestfriend."
"No its okay. I mean the whole listening part. The bashing my bestfriend part is my thing."
Leroy scoffed.
