"You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have left." Okay sorry guys, that's how my weekend went..not like you care..you probably wanna read!(: here's the chapter, enjoy!(:

"Jane! Wait, let me explain!" I called desperately after her.
But she was running. And crying. Snap snap snap. I made her cry again!
"Oh come on James, you know you love me way more than you love her." She said with her body pressed up against mine, like she owned me.
"No, I don't! I don't love you. All I want is for you to never speak to me again! Don't you realize something? You've screwed up my girlfriends life way too much! She's going to be so mad and too upset to even look at me and it's all because of you! Leave. Just go and never come anywhere near me ever again."
"Sorry James, I'm afraid I can't seem to do that." She had a grim on her face and I just wanted to smack it off of her.
"Jenny. Go. Now."
If she didn't leave, nothing was going to stop me from calling carter over here and making him pick her up and move her himself.
"But James. I love you. You can't love her. We have something special."
"No we DONT!" I was yelling at her.
"I freaking love Jane! I love everything about her. Her body, her hair, her personality, her way that she looks on life. She's amazing! You're not. I won't ever love anything about you. Ever."
"Just watch your words James. One day that little blonde brat will break your heart and I will be here to pick up the pathetic pieces."
She finally stormed away. Wow, that goodness.
"Woah dude...Jane was just in tears, what happened?"
Carter now found me. Little to late for that one.
"Jenny kissed me for no reason. I yelled at her and she stormed away finally."
"Wait. Jenny kissed...YOU?"
"Yeah! And now my amazing girlfriend probably won't talk to me for quite some time!"
"Well, thanks to Jenny, Jane came running to lyndsey and they left. I was about to ask her out on a DATE! Just the TWO of us! We have to get revenge on her."
"Well duh. Please just wheel me back to the parking lot while I call my mom."
I was holding back the tears as I knew that I had lost Jane. Maybe for good this time. I had to win her back, I'm not sure how, but I was determined to get her. You wanna know why? It's because i love her. I freaking love her and now she's gone.
She will probably run back to Dylan. I mean he's my best friend but I know he loves her too. So what if he loves her? I love her more. I didn't like them being a couple in the first place. I was just too stupid to say anything.
****************************
"Jane! Come on! You've got to come out of that room eventually. Really, skipping school isn't like you. It could affect your GPA!"
I heard lyndsey calling through my door.
"Okay, now you're just getting desperate...."
I could almost see her smiling though the door. She finally walked in.
"What happened to you Jane? You look like a mess! But I love you anyways!"
"Ha..thanks lyndsey..."
"Your welcome. Now we are getting you to the point where you can say his name and not burst into tears."
"Umm okay?"
She threw something hard at me. I picked it up....oh she was good. A gallon tub of bluebell ice cream. French Vanilla. My absolute favorite. She also threw something else at me...a movie? I looked to see that it was Pitch Perfect.
"Lyndsey, have I ever mentioned that you're amazing?"
"Once or twice...or a zillion times?"
She was smiling and laughing and just seeing her smile caused me to smile. I guess it was working already.
"Okay girl, now put that movie in the DVD player and lets get this part-ay started!"
We sat in silence watching the movie and all of a sudden my phone started to ring. I looked down to see James face pop up on caller ID. Oh gosh that did it. The water works just started all over again. Lyndsey quickly grabbed my phone away and declined the call.
Then she handed me a spoon and I dug in to that ice cream. I cried and ate ice cream for about half an hour...lyndsey was embracing me in a hug the entire time, obviously not caring that my old mascara was getting all over her shirt. I checked my Facebook and the first picture that I saw was of Jenny and James sharing that kiss. Get ready for waterworks round two. Apparently I wasn't the only one who saw that kiss. It was blowing up the Internet.
***************************
I punched the wall in my room with everything that I had. This girl, just isn't any girl. This is Jane. I'm going to look like the jerk who cheated on her and sent her back to this depressing state. That girl, could cry, I mean cry. I heard that when I was out cold in the hospital she would walk down the hallways crying.
She didn't care what she looked like.
She cried.
Apparently I changed her in some way.
No.
I know I changed her because unlike Dylan, I was that shoulder there for her to cry on. I punched the wall again, harder. She was just stuck in my head. I tried to call her.
Rejection.
I threw my phone on my bed and started wheeling around running into random objects because at this moment I knew that I lost her. She's gone. That's when I felt the hot tears running down my face.
************************
"Thanks lyndsey, that really helped me." I said to her as the movie ended and the ice cream was almost gone.
"Hey, what are best friends for?"
"Everything!"
"Guess what Jane?"
"What?!?"
"I might have a little chance with carter! He was gonna ask me something...i don't know..he could've just been asking me to be his friend? Like on a personal level or maybe he wanted my number? Oh my gosh that would be epic-"
"Calm down girl, he most likely likes you. You guys are too perfect for each other. Like no joke. "
"Really? You think so? "
"Duh! I'm always right, remember?"
"And not to mention incredibly modest!" We both started to laugh after that, but my face started to fall.
"Lyndsey, what am I going to do at school?"
"Jane, I know what that jerk did to you was awful, but you need to give him a chance to explain everything out. He deserves 5 minutes."
"Okay. He better use each second wisely."
