Chapter 40: A Mess.

25th September 2015, Friday.

(After what happened at Liam's birthday you have been avoiding both Niall and Bradley..

You and Bradley are officially "broken up" and it's.. going well, for the most part at least.. there's always people who are gonna pick on you..

You eat with the cheer squad like you have been doing for the past five days..)

Hannah: -So I say "Can I help you?" and this grown up man literally goes "We can go to my place, have some fun ya'know?"

Ryan: Didn't you tell him you were 18?

Hannah: I did! But he said "At least you're legal, am I'm just 29"

Hritam: "JUST"?

Hannah: I ran for my life..

Sara: I'm calling the FBI on him (They all laugh, Sara notices your silence)

Jay you good?

Jay: Oh- Yes.. just thinking I guess?

Aori: You just broke up, it's okay you're allowed to be sad over it.

Jay: Yeah.. broke up. (Ryan shudders)

Ryan: Ugh I hate breakups, remember Hritam when we broke up?

Jay: You guys broke up?

Ryan: Yeah, For one month..

Hritam: Yep, and then we got together because we didn't have many options instead of each other.

Ryan: I hate you. (They chuckle and share a quick kiss)

Audrey: Have you ever dated anyone Sara?

Sara: Well.. yeah kinda?

Ellie: Who?

Sara: It was.. Jay.

Hannah: You two dated?!

Jay: Well.. not "DATED" dated..

Sara: In middle school, The girl who used to make fun of me got a boyfriend and was irritating me, I got all whiny and was like "I have a boyfriend too!" And she was like "who?" And I pointed to Jay..

Jay: Doesn't help that I was a "nerd" so it didn't really help her case, but we still had to act.. It lasted for a week.

Sara: That's similar to- (as she realizes she immediately stops herself)

Ellie: Similar to?

Sara: To… a movie we saw once.

Jay: Oh yeah.. (You both take a breath of relief as the rest continue with the chatter)

Liam: Hey Jay.. (You look up to see him standing next to you)

Jay: Hey?

Liam: Can we talk? (You look towards Sara in confusion)

Jay: Sure.. (You stand up and he leads you outside)

What you had to say?

Liam: Just that, I'm sorry for telling Bradley's parents.. I kinda caused your break-up.

Jay: Oh it's fine, me and Bradley are good.. he apologized to me.. he must have told you right?

Liam: He did, but still.. like I wanted to say it myself.

Jay: Okay.. Well it's okay, don't worry. (You smile and turn)

Liam: Umm..

Jay: Yes? Anything else you want to say?
