You are close friends with the Walter family. Your family's ranch house was very close to theirs so you practically grew up together. a year ago, Jackie Howard moved it win the Walter family after a tragic family accident. Since you'd spent a lot of time at the Walters, it didn't take long for you and Jackie to become best friends, you shared everything, and you could almost say you and Jackie were as close as sisters. Jackie knew that you were madly in love with Cole. And you knew that Jackie liked Alex.
By being friends with Cole, you tried helping him with his academic career, you helped him study for his test for literal hours, and you knew how bad his grades had gotten after the whole football accident situation, but you somehow convinced him to study hard and give it a shot. "Good luck Cole, you got this!" you told him as he got out of the car and headed to take the test. Now it was just Alex, Jackie and you left in the car, a couple of silent seconds passed,
"Want to go to an arcade?" Alex suggested, breaking the silence.
"You guys go, I'll go for a drink somewhere while waiting for Cole to finish," you said unbuckling your seat belt.
Alex looked at me with a doubt, "Are you sure? We can go get something to drink and then we all go to the arcade."
"No, it's okay, I wouldn't be able to focus anyway, you two be careful." You smiled taking your things while Alex continued to look uncertain. "I'll be fine," you assured him, he nodded with a small smile and you parted ways.
"See ya, y/n/n," Jackie said as you just waved goodbye.
You walked along the sidewalk of the streets looking for a cafeteria with your eyes and you found one. You entered it, ordered an iced coffee, and sat down at one of the tables where you would be scrolling through your phone letting time pass. As quite some time had passed by now, you figured Cole would be done with his test, and Jackie and Alex would have probably returned by now, you got up from your seat and walked out of there, walking back to where you had dropped off Cole.
Heyyy! So how did it go? You texted Cole.
hmmm? still left on read after 5 minutes?
That's weird, he usually responds fairly quickly to your text messages.
Alex! I'll be there in like 5, are Jackie and you there? is Cole with you two?
Yep, he's with Jackie, I had to take a quick bathroom break lol, see ya soon! Alex replies back
After a couple more minutes of walking, you arrived at the school parking lot, your brows furrow when you see Alex frozen in place looking at something, you could only see his back, so you took a step to the side and then the worst scene you could have imagined was in front of your eyes. Jackie had kissed the boy you had been in love with all your life.
"Go on, clearly I'm interrupting something here." you heard Alex say and he backed away from the two figures standing in front of him, not knowing that you were behind him, he almost collided with you.
The anger and sadness on his face dissipated when he saw you, he knew how you felt about his brother, so he simply put his arm around your shoulders and led you away from the two of them. He knew exactly what you were feeling because that's what he was feeling too.
"Let's just go, It's not worth it," he said under his breath as you continued in shock and let him guide you.
"Y/n! Wait" you heard Cole yell out as he was walking behind the two of you.
