Teenage Drama

Part 10

"I'm inlove with Carson!" jackson said, "but I know I don't have a chance because all he ever talks about is you!"

I felt so bad, I just hugged him tighter. He hugged me back.

Carson walked in the locker room, confused. He said under his voice "pathetic" and rolled his eyes.

I walked jackson home to make sure he doesn't start crying again. Once we got to his house, he said, "bye, I know it's not your fault that Carson likes you and I will not hate you because of that, can we sit together at lunch tomorrow? I'm sure Carson will hate me after you tell him what happened today..."

I looked at him shocked, "I won't tell Carson anything, I don't want to talk to him either." I said.

He smiled and ran inside. I walked back to my house.

Soon enough, the next day came and it was lunch time. I went to go sit with Jackson and we talked a lot. He showed me a love letter he wrote for Carson. He has the most angelic handwriting. ITS IN CURSIVE.

Carson came up to me and said, "I saw you walking home with Jackson yesterday."

I looked at him dead in the eyes and said, "you didn't comfort your friend of like 8 years when he was on the floor- crying."

He stuttered, "we-well... you looked like you were doing a pretty good job of comforting him yourself. I didn't think I would need to help."

I wanted to punch him. Instead of violence, I said, "are you serious?! I'm sure he would of liked it a lot better if you helped him instead of a girl he's know for like 2 days."

He rolled his eyes and walked away. What was his problem?!

I went home and took a nap, before I knew it I was in a plastic bin at the top of the staircase with Alyzze behind me yelling, "3! 2! 1! SLIDEEEEE!" And she pushed the bin.

WHAT.

THE.

FUCK.

I screamed, and crashed at the end, "ALYZZE, WHAT THE HELL?"

She looked at me as if I just arose from the dead, "oh shit. She's awake." Her eyes widened before she ran to the bathroom and locked the door.

I got out of the bin with my body aching. Ugh!

I went up to my room, locked the door, and went on my phone. I saw a text from a random number, I opened it.

But just then I remembered; SHIT! IM LATE FOR WORK!

I kept forgetting that I actually have a job now , I quickly jumped out of bed, threw on a t shirt and some jeans and ran out the door.

I jumped on my skateboard and quickly rode to the arcade and told Rob, "sorry I'm late!"

He chuckled and said, "you can't be late, you don't have shifts, feel free to leave and come whenever."

I smiled and got to work- by "work" I mean playing games.

I was happy until Carson walked in.

I hated him. There's no way I could have a crush on him anymore after what he did to Jackson.

He walked up to me but I just ignored him. Rob said, "looks like you've got a friend there, Sheccid." And smiled.

I looked at Carson then rob and said, "he is not my friend. I'd be damned if he was."

Carson looked sad but then his eyes lit up. He said, "I guess I'm damned then."  And he started to walk away until I grabbed his wrist.

He turned back around as if he was confused. He probably was. He looked at me and murmured, "what?"

"Are are not friends. I hate you. You could at least make an effort to make Jackson feel like somebody instead of not liking him because he's now my friend." I said stubbornly.

He looked at me and said, "why do you want me to like Jackson so bad?!"

I waited and then whispered, "it's not my place to say."

He looked at me as if I just killed his mother. We made eye contact for a bit until I looked at rob and said, "I'll come back in later."

He nodded and I ran out making sure to grab my coat off the coat holder.

I grabbed my skate board. And got on it. As I skated home, I was crying. I wasn't sure why. Probably because of how bad I felt for Jack (Jackson).

I mean, he was inlove with his bestfriend who was inlove with me and when his bestfriend saw him crying, he didn't care or even try to comfort him.

I really wanted to punch Carson. And so I did. I texted him once I got home and was calmed.

Once I got there, I waited for him.

He finally showed up. I got up and walked over to him.

He said, "look, if you want to date me, you could've just said over te-"

I punched him. I didn't want to hear anymore of his shit.

He said, "what the fuck?!" While blood was dripping down off of his lip.

He ran off. That bitch.

He was so weak he couldn't even manage to punch back.

Whatever. It was late so I went home and called rob to apologize for not coming in today. He said it was fine and that I don't need to ever apologize.

I stayed up all night thinking about.. jackson?

Not carson? Or Santi? Or makenzi? I have so many choices but I choose to think about Jackson.

Wtf.

He has a crush on my ex boyfriend. How the fuck do I like him?

I mean.. jackson is biesexual so he likes both guys and girls.

Oh gosh, this is so weird!!
