All started with a dare

Chapter 8

Jack's POV

She left me in the locker room shocked. I kissed her. And it was amazing. Even though it was a few seconds. Her lips so soft and I could taste a bit of raspberry from I think her ChapStick. Why must I be an ass around her?

For the rest of the day I tried to find her and though she was in my some of my classes, she was either the last to enter or the first to leave.

After school, I had detention because of Nicole. She is attractive I will admit but Ali was different.

Nicole is more like the barbie doll beauty. Ali is the opposite. She has a beauty that's natural and pure.

When I got to detention, it was unfortunately only me and Nicole.

I didn't want to be here, I rather be at home getting ready to take Ali out. I want to be with her not this preppy cheerleader.

I sit on the opposite side of Nicole. Of course she moves to the seat next to me. I have to be in this room alone with Nicole for half an hour. Great. Sarcasm included.

The 30 minutes went by eternally slowly and was tortuous. Finally we were able to leave and Nicole follows me to my car.

"Jack, I wanted to know if maybe you wanted to hang out tonight." She says seductively.

"No thanks." I say coldly. The last thing I wanted to do is be with her.

"Come on, Jack. We can have a lot of fun tonight. Gym class was just a taste. How about a full course meal." She says.

I cringe in disgust. "Leave me alone." I say pushing her away from me and getting into the car.

She glares at me and struts away dramatically flipping her hair.

I drive away heading home and to drive to my house I have to pass Ali's house. I see her house coming to view. In the drive way I see her...and Colby get into a car together.

Anger burns through me as I watch them drive away together. That was supposed to me  and Ali.

I start to 'follow' them. Let's just say that. Yes I know how stalkerish that sounds but I can't help my curiousity.

She said they were just friends but why do I feel it's more than that.

I drive behind them (yes still sounds creepy) and they end up in the movie theater.

They get out and I do too, and I head in. I see them talk to...umm...I think their names were of Ellie and Alex? Something like that.

They seem to be having a conversation and then they look behind me. Shit hopefully they don't see me.

I look behind and see Brandon and that Jenny girl or whatever her name was. Everybody looked shocked to see Brandon and Jane together.

I don't understand. Brandon and I have been friends since diapers because of our parents. We've been in touch even though I had gone to whole different state across the state.

He told me he and that Jenny have been together for about 6 months. So what were they all shocked about.

Once the group headed toward their movie together I headed toward Brandon.

"Hey, Brandon." I say from behind them.

He turns around, "Oh hey Jack. What's up?" He asks.

"Nothing except why was Ali, Colby, Ellie, and Alex looking at you two like you were some serial killers." I say.

Once I had said that his eyes turned wide and he gave a worried look at Jenny.

"First of all, its Eliza and Alec. Not Ellie and Alex. Second of all shit!" Jenny says.

"Jane watch your language. They were going to find out eventually." Brandon said. Oh it's Jane.

"Sorry its just I don't want to seperate the group because if us. There's a reason why we kept secret, Brandon." Jane says really worried.

Brandon pulls her into his arms and kisses the top of her head. "It's all going to be okay. I don't think 'us' will change anything between everybody else." He said calmly.

"You don't know that. Remember the last time? I don't want that to happen again. Never." She says cuddling into his side.

"I know but that was a long time ago. It won't happen. Even if it did I won't let you go." He says caringly.

She smiles up to him and kisses his cheek. "I'm so lucky."

The whole time I just stood watching the two love birds. "Well, I'm going to go." I say interrupting the two from their world.

"Oh yeah. Thanks for telling us Jack." Brandon says.

"No problem." I say, "Pleasure meeting you Jane."

"I've heard a lot about you," she says.

"You have?" I asked suddenly interested.

"Yeah, Beth and Ali won't ever shut up about you. Especially Beth." She says.

"Ali? Interesting." I say smirking to myself. She talks about me even though she tries to act as if she doesn't care about me.

"You like her." She says bluntly.

"Well duh. She's hot and feisty. My kind of girl." I say.

"If you're going to make a play for her just for a bit if bed action, I will cut your dick off." She says angrily.

"Jane, you're never going to touch his dick or I'll punish you for that." Brandon says and Jane blushes.

"Well, you get my point." She says.

"Yeah." I say.

"Well, we've got to go but I'll see you tomorrow." Brandon says.

"Yeah." I say.

They walk off and drive away. I go to my car. I drive home and of course Mom and Dad are working away.

I take out my phone and text someone. I'm going to have to find out how Ali feels about me. And the only way is this.

Me: Hey

Nicole: what do you want?

Me: How about a date?

Nicole: Couldn't resist me

Me: You know it baby

Nicole: sure about the date ;)

Me: Great I'll see you tomorrow.

I know I'm walking into bad territory, but I'm going to test Ali. Let's see if she passes.
