Love Only Happens Once

Chapter 9

...Jack, I'm starting to feel bad. I mean he's so sweet and he's really putting everything into this relationship. At this rate I feel like he's going to propose or something... (she laughed as she was saying that and that was just the beginning of when my heart was starting to crumble)...

"Babe that would be great. Make him a laughing stock and use them for their money. As soon as you get that ring we can use it to humiliate him. I mean what was he thinking, did he really think he could get someone of your standard . His family may be rich but mines and yours are richer and he can never have what I have." Jack laughed as if the idea was too impossible for me to ever have one day.

"Jack that's mean. I mean I know if it wasn't for the bet you and Dylan made with each other I wouldn't have paid him any mind. However, that's not to say he's bad looking. He's actually very handsome just not handsome enough for me maybe but he's still an angel." replied Madeline

"Babe, you're making him sound like a b!tch" and Madeline laughed after she thought about it. All i could think to myself was that I wasn't that bad. I mean yeah I was also the High school quarterback and I was good at it too. Yet, I didn't care about social monarchy. I was nice to everyone...I didn't see the point of being an a$$hole. My life was fine until sophomore year. Jane Malbeni wanted to date me and I said no. Remember, I said I didn't believe in social monarchy that didn't mean everyone else didn't. She ruined me after sophomore year. She ended up getting with Jack Greenwood (yes, Madeline's Jack). Together they made sure I was at the bottom of the food chain. They pulled every prank possible and practically tried humiliate me every second of the day. Truthfully I felt as though they didn't have a life if I was that important to you. Jane ended up graduating since she was two grades higher. That's when Madeline came and she was a nice girl. Then they corrupted her . I soon found out she was trying to stay in the in crowd.

"You remember the plan right madeline. After your little date tonight you embarrass him in whatever restaurant your in. You tell him about the bet and how you would never stoop low enough to date someone like him..yada yada yada. I'm going to follow behind you and tape everything...okay?" he said

"Yeah, I got it" she sighed. I didn't know if she sighed because she was ready to get it over with or because she felt bad. I didn't think it was the latter and I still don't. As I stood there I took everything in. I went from shocked, to hurt, to disbelief and ended up being furious. I couldn't believe it...I mean who goes around playing with other's emotions. Especially, when that person doesn't give da^^n about you!

"So is conniving what you've always been? Or is this something new?" I asked as I stepped forward. The surprise on their faces would have been priceless if weren't for the situation.

"J-Je-Jeremy, Heyyy...Um what are you doing here?" she couldn't stop fidgeting as she asked that question. I couldn't believe she honestly asked that questions.

"What do you mean? You were just talking about it. You know humiliation and date. Those words ring a bell" At that moment me and my arched brow were best friends. I laughed when she froze up.

"C'mon don't freeze up on me now...you were both were pretty happy talking about your plans. I mean the least you can do is keep up appearances. You know conniving b!tch/whore and her pimp right? Or is called sugar daddy? but we probably could just say daddy since you both have money right? For goodness sake Jack you claim your #1 in school..yet...you're sleeping with a girl who has a teletubbies poster on her wall! I thought you were better than this..guess not" I replied. Madeline started mustering up tears. Jack was fuming mad. I was flabbergasted because she was really crying. I mean the water works while trying to say sorry at the same time. I raised my palm towards her to quiet her. I didn't care what she had to say. I only had one more thing left to say.
