-Jack J's POV-
Today was my date with Jack and I'm so excited. I decided today I would tell him how I feel about him. I just hope he feels the same. Right now I'm getting ready and Jack won't tell me where we're going.

"Babe!? Are you ready? You're slower than a goddamn grandma!" he yelled up to me.

"Just a sec!" I yelled back and picked up my phone, a snapback and headed downstairs.

"Finally! Leggo." he latched his arm with mine and started dragging me out the door.

"Can I please know where we're going?" I begged.

"Nope. Now put this on." he handed me a blindfold.

But I refused,"No."

"Do it or be forced." he grinned cheekily.

I smirked," How do you know I won't like that?"

"You dirty bastard! I love it. Now seriously put on the blindfold." he smoothly transitioned back to seriousness.

I chuckled and put on the blindfold. Which wasn't a good idea to do before getting in the car because I didn't know the height of the car so I ended up bumping my head. Jack burst into a huge fit of laughter.

"Shut up. Why didn't you help me?" I said rather embarrassed.

He could barely speak between fits laughter," I thought you could handle it."

" Whatever. Let's just go." I pouted.

We drove for what felt like hours. At first Jack was singing along to the radio, he has a very good voice actually. Then I guess I fell asleep 'cause I woke up to Jack shaking me.

"Huh? What?" I woke up a little frazzled and hit my head on the hood of the car," Owie."

Jack burst out laughing for the second time today at me," Dude it's just me. Why so jumpy? I was just gonna tell you we're here."

"Oh shush. You try waking up only seeing black and only having your ears to go by with someone shaking you." I defended.

"Aww babe. Get up so we can go have fun." he started pulling me out the car.

"Ok ok! Stop pulling me, I can get up myself." I pulled my arm away from him.

"Fine, fine." he held his hands up in surrender.

I got out the car and was awestruck at the sight before me, it was the park we went to as kids and a picnic was set up at the tree we used to climb and scribble on.

"Jack this is beautiful. How'd you remember this place? I didn't even remember until now." I gushed.

"Are you kidding? Who couldn't remember all the good times we had, especially at this tree?" he asked dramatically.

"I can't believe you did this. This shows that underneath that player persona, you're an actual real person." I said trying to hold back the tears.

"Ptff. This is nothing. I just hate when you're mad at me because we both know how you hold grudges. Now let's eat." he brushed off the compliment for some weird reason.

"Yay food!" I cheered.

"I bought Chinese, your favorite."

We ate A LOT and Jack kept smiling and making jokes. Then we went on the playground and I made Jack push me on the swings. So far this was one of the best dates I've ever been on. It's the only date I've been even though it's not really a date but it will always count as one to me. We were sitting on the big slide just talking and I thought it would be the perfect time to tell him.

"Hey Jack?" I asked nervously.

"Yeah babe?" he asked confused.

"I really need to tell you something." I said finally.

" What is-" just then his phone rang and he went to go take it.

I slumped in my spot and frowned. I was just about to tell him and whoever called him ruined it for me. When he came back I just stared at the ground and asked.

"Who was it?"

"I've been meaning to tell you about her but I've just been busy." he explained.

"H-her?" I questinoned, tears welling in my eyes.

"Yeah, my girlfriend. Her name's Madison and she's amazing man. You'll love her, she's coming over Monday." he gushed.

"G-Girlfriend? But..?" I wasn't really grasping what he was saying very well.

"Yeah. I'm sorry I didn't tell you. I just wanted to wait and see if she was worth it. I met her at the party and she's proved to be more than just a good lay." he gushed again.

"You waited a week to see if she isn't a slut anymore? You are an idiot." I grew angry.

"What? Man she's changed." he tried to explain.

"Yeah to get what she wants out of you. Girls don't just have foursomes and turn innocent again. Has she ever been to our house or have you ever talked about your money?" I asked trying to get to the bottom of this.

"I mean yeah she's been to the house once or twice and on our first date we talked about our parents and she recognized my parents as the owners of Hollister modeling agencies across the world. What are you getting at?" he asked clueless.

"You idiot! She doesn't want you, she wants that money and to be noticed." I explained.

"No, Madison wouldn't do that to me. Besides her parents are rich too." he defended.

"Take me home." I demanded.

"But I still have stuff planned. You can't be mad at me again. Babe don't do this." he pleaded.

"Just take me home please. I'm not mad at you, just need to think about this" I explained.

"Fine. I'm really sorry Jack." he apologized.

"No its fine. I get it, you like her. If you're happy, I'm happy." I said only half truthfully,"So what's this Madison like?"

That's what we talked about the whole ride. She sounded really sweet, a little too sweet. But I wasn't going to ruin his happiness. I only wanted him happy and if I had to get over him to do it, then I would.

When we got home Jack tried to talk to me but I just used the excuse that I was tired to get away. I went into my room and cried. I cried my eyes out, I cried until I couldn't anymore. Next thing I know I cried myself to sleep.
