(Just to clear things up, this scene is Jack's interaction with Andriette by her locker, but from his P.O.V. You can skip this if you want, but if not, enjoy!)
Jack's P.O.V
I thought the first day of school was going to be easy. Catching up with friends, sports tryouts… catching up with friends. Yeah, that’s all I was really looking forward to.
The morning came and went as expected, but the normalness stopped when I saw someone I wasn’t expecting to.
Andriette Seaver.
For about three years, I’ve had this crush on her and was always trying to do things to impress her.
In hindsight, I probably shouldn’t have asked Nick for advice. Because of him, I’m pretty sure all I’ve done is manage to annoy her.
I didn’t think about that then, all I was thinking was, “Maybe now I can do something to make her not think I’m an idiot.”
With that in mind, as soon as Sarah, her best friend, left, I walked up to her. She didn’t see me, though, because she opened her locker. I tried to close her locker to catch her attention, but I put more force into it than I wanted to and ended up slamming it shut.
That... didn’t go how I expected it to.
She yanked her hands back and looked at me. For a hot second, I’m pretty sure I saw disgust or something before she put on a blank face.
“Hey, Andi,” I started, inwardly cringing already. “Still hanging out with Pretty Princess, I see. Y’know, hanging out with me would put you in much better company.”
I mentally facepalmed but tried for a smile.
She narrowed her eyes at me slightly, said, “Don’t call me Andi.” And walked away.
The minute she turned her back, I facepalmed, groaning at my own stupidity.
Pretty Princess? What the heck is wrong with me?!

Well, this was short. I hope this gave y’all a little more insight into Jack’s personality. I know this was a little random, but by the time I realized I had a place to put this, there was already a chapter after it and I was like "screw it". (Edit: I figured out how to fix it!) I’m sorry, I suck at writing about crushes. Hopefully, this was at least a little accurate. Bye-bye! Origin out!
