I'm a mess (on hold) :: kian a.u

chapter 7

jack

I could write a thousand pages when describing krista. when I kissed her, she kissed me back. any doubts I had about our relationship are gone. totally gone. she invited me to lunch today with her friends, which is an improvement from before. I hope they all like me. I'm going to meet krista at her house to go meet her friends.

she's wearing a white shirt with jeans and a flannel around her waist. her long brown hair was down and slightly curled, my favorite way.

"hey cutie." she blushes every time I say anything along those lines.

"thanks for picking me up. I think you'll really like my friends." she said.

"I'm sure I will."

"oh, and by the way, one of them is gay and thinks you're hot." that made me laugh.

"should I take that as a compliment?" I asked.

"yes. he's not exactly ugly." I laughed.

"I'll keep that in mind."

"you know jack. I haven't heard you 'sing' yet!" she said.

oh jesus. why did I ever tell her that?

"ugh. and you never will." I said.

"oh cmon! how bad could you be?"

"it's not that I'm bad. it's just sort of embarrassing." she giggled.

"I'm sure you're good. but why would you be embarrassed? it's just me." she said.

"oh look. we're here."

"guys, this is jack." krista introduced me to her friends, and the entire time she was talking kian was giving me the death look. if looks could kill, I'd be dead.

"so jack, how'd you and kris meet?" jc asked me. it caught me off guard so my reply was delayed.

"kris? oh right, krista. we met at the club that one night a few weeks ago."

"of course you two met that night." kian murmured under his breath.

"what was that, kian?" krista didn't hear him, thank god.

"excuse me while I go to the restroom for a second." I needed to get out of this conversation. I feel like they all hate me. krista got up and followed me.

"jack, what's wrong? you've barely said anything this whole time." she said.

"well it's kind of hard to when kian's giving me the death look. what's his problem?"

I didn't mean to sound annoyed, because I wasn't. I just thought it was a bit strange.

"don't let it get to you. him and andrea are having some...issues. he's just jealous of us." she squeezed my hand.

after that happened, it was extremely awkward. i think jc and connor like me. andrea has given me mixed signals and kian straight up hates me.

krista

the lunch with jack went well, I think. afterwords we went to the park and took a bunch of cute pictures. my mom usually doesn't care what time I come home, but tonight she wanted me home at 10. it was 8 o'clock now so I had some time.

"I think my friends really liked you." I told him.

"I hope they did. but I still don't understand why kian hates me." he said.
