It was Sunday and I was getting ready for my family and I to go to church. My grandma was very religious and before she died my mother promised her she would carry on her tradition with church and breakfast every Sunday. Honestly, God forbid if my mother died, I wouldn't be able to promise her that because I know I wouldn't keep it, but I would try.

As I was getting ready I heard a knock at the door, "Come in" I shouted. Honestly, I was expecting my mother but surprisingly it was Jack,"Oh, when did you get here?" I asked walking over to my bed and fixing the right side.

"Uh a minute ago" he replied into my room. I was making my bed and since it was a twin size I kept having to go back and force to fix it, Jack wasn't helping either. In fact he was making it worse. He would go on one side I had cleaned while I fixed the other making it more complicated."

"Jack-" I whined, "-I just fixed that side three times."

"Okay" he said with a smirk on his face. I ignored his comment and continued to fix my sheets. As I lifted the blanket, it wouldn't lift because of jacks body was on top of the other half, holding it down. I kept tugging to get him to notice and possibly move.

"Hello? Can you please move"

"Just because you said please" he replied moving his body to the side.

I gave him a look and fixed my sheets.
"Let's go!" I heard my mom shouted form downstairs.

"Okay!" I said grabbing my purse and spraying perfume on before I go.

"Don't put perfume on" I heard Jack say from the other side of the room

"Why?" I said continuing to spray it on my body.

"Because I don't want boys following the scent of it when they should be focusing on god" he said lifting his head and repositioning the pillow.

"Well like you said, it's the house of god, and I don't want god to think I smell bad" I said opening my door to my room. I noticed jack wasn't moving,"Hello? Get out!" I said waving my hand up gesturing him to get out of my bed.

"But I'm to comfortable" he whined.

"And my mom is waiting" I said making him get up quick. Jack respects my mom, he might be a little scared of her too but it works. His never broken any of her rules, well of her knowledge he hasn't, maybe he should respect me more more like that too. Who am I kidding? As we walked down the steps, my mom was outside waiting in the car. Jack opened the front door and held it open for me to walk through first.

"Why thank you" I said in a proper like voice.

"You're welcome my lady" he said taking a bow. I giggled making a smile spread across his face.

We just arrived at IHOP after church ended. It was okay, not gonna lie it was a little boring but I still paid attention. I was honestly starving and needed food in my system now or else someone was getting stabbed.

As we walked in and waited in the waiting area for a table to be available, I heard a familiar voice in the background, I turned my head up to see who it was to end up seeing the one and only...

Sammy Wilkinson... Seriously, out of all the places that served breakfast he had to come to IHOP, he couldn't get mcdonalds? He ended up noticing I was looking than he turned and smiled at the sight of me. Darn that side dimple that shows when he smiles. Honestly I hated Sammy but I didn't hate his smile. I glanced over and saw another person next to him... A girl...And it wasn't Stacy. I ignored the sight as a tall brunette waitress came up to us and showed us our table. We instantly ordered our drinks being we've been here more than once and already knew what drinks we liked.

Honestly, who was that girl that's with Sammy? She looked average height. She was too talk but she was curvy and she had a dirty blonde hair look. I've never noticed her around school.

"So how was breakfast?" Jack asked through the phone. We got back from IHOP about an hour ago and I was full and tired, so answering questions was not a thing I took into consideration.

"Um good, I uh- saw Sammy" I hesitated to say. Jack is buddies with Sammy so he kinda knew his 'ways' with girls and always told me to stay away. Me being me I ignored him and ended up regretting it.

"Oh" he said. I could feel him tensing up through the phone.

"Removed that clenched jaw, we didn't exchange any words" I said through the phone.

"Good" he said sounding relieved.

"Quick question, is he still dating Stacy?" I asked.

"Uh- I think so" he replied. That's when all the possibilities of who the girl was started flooding in. Sammy was cheating on Stacy with that girl? No one knew but damn... Poor girl. His definitely played Stacy too many times to count, trust me I know. One of those girls were me. Although I don't like the girl, cheating is the worse and the heartbreak after it is depressing.
