Jake fucking Elton. He is the first thought in my head as I wake up due to the piercing pain in my stomach. It is almost time for school, I notice and begin to put on my uniform. I've always paid attention to the way I present myself. Now now, don't get ahead of yourselves, it doesn't mean I'm gay or anything. I know I look good, I just tend to make sure everyone else knows too. Even though, the uniform doesn't allow me to put too much thought to my outfit. I put on my denim jacket and take one final look in the mirror - Jake really did a number on me.
"They might make you take it off" I hear my sister say.
"No good morning, No how are you? No how are you dealing with the pain?"
"Whatever" Xena answers nonchalantly. "They never let us wear hoodies or jackets except the school coat. It's so unfair, this always happens to us."
I smirk, knowing they wouldn't question me, even if they did, it's not like I give a fuck.
"Grow some balls, you keep listening to them and they will continue controlling you." I reply to her. I walk out towards my car, my bag on my shoulder, Xena following my suite. Our dad usually drives us to school but I think I'll be driving today. The petrol price raised and I think dad went into shock, I'm going to let him absorb it today. Oh, I forgot to mention my dad owns a petrol station, the same business as Jake fucking Elton's family. My nose scrunches at the thought of him. We reach at school and as soon as I get out, I instantly wished I hadn't. Here he is, the last person I want to see. Ofcourse, it's Jake. I watch Xena happily greet Jake's sister. Why do these two have to be best friends again?
We make eye contact and I feel anger bubble in me.
"Hey bro"
My best mate's Hunter's voice fills into my ears. "Oh hey, when did you get here?"
"Well, you seemed too busy having a staring contest with Jake over there"
"He is an asshole. Him and his friends, if killing wasn't illegal I swe- "
"Oh god, you two are always talking about each other, just fuck already." Hunter cut me off.
"Fuck off Hunter. Why are you even friends with that asshole?"
"He isn't that much of an asshole."
"You and Xena both" I rolled my eyes. "Xena?" he rose his eyebrow inquisitively, following my gaze. "Oh she is your sister? I know her, I guided her in the MUN, her and the other girl had some issue with their country."
"Hm anyways, let's get to class." I say to him. I had earned a bad boy reputation in school which isn't truly based on facts but I don't care enough to point that out. While I'm passing by the hallway, I see Nora, she seemed to be consoling her little sister who always SEEMED TO BE CRYING. Now, I liked Nora, she was quite beautiful, but that didn't mean I was a huge fan of her sister. Her eyes find me, I passed her a quick smile, not wanting to talk to her sister unless I absolutely needed to. Hunter leaves for his class, in the other direction, murmuring "see you later." As I'm heading towards my business class, I bump into a hard wall. Wtf? I turn my gaze up and it's Jake again. He can't seem to stop following me around, the universe must really hate me. His 6'5 frame hovers above me. Now, I'm also impressive at a height of 5'11 but Jake is, well, he is tall.
"Watch where you are going asshole" I glare at him.
"Watch where you are staring" he pipes back. I look at him, confusion in my eyes. "What the fuck do you mean?"
"Nora." he replies in one word. Wait what? Did Jake like Nora?
"You jealous or what?" I retort
"You should only look at me like that." he whispers in a hushed tone, I almost don't hear him and when I do, I think I must have heard wrong.
"What?" I inquired watching splotches of pink appear on his face. Was Jake fucking blushing? What was happening? Well, he did look adorable. No no Jacob, something was terribly wrong today. "Whatever get out of my way" he said defensively. "The last time I checked you were in my way"
"What is going on here?" I hear another voice. George Kim. If there was anyone I hated more then Jake Elton, it would be him. He was the senior master at our school, who put his nose in everything except his work.
"Nothing I was just going to class" I practically ran, avoiding him. And as I sat in class, there was just one name revolving my head again - Jake and what he said to me. And Hunter's words ringing in my ears, "Oh god, you two are always talking about each other." I wonder what he will say, if I told him, I'm always thinking about Jake Elton too.
