Jake's pov

I let out a sigh of relief. "Look, I'm sorry again that I hurt you earlier. I am trying to figure out what happen when I went to hangout with Diana at the mall. I don't remember much but I remember taking a sip of her drink and the next thing I know I'm in some random apartment and I'm violent for no reason. Diana must have drugged me or something, but I swear I didn't mean to hurt you. I'm sorry." Johnnie looked around to make sure there was nobody before whispering, "She did. Tara and I saw it. When you went to the bathroom she put something in her drink and when you came back you took a sip." I stared at him in shock. She actually drugged me? We sat in silence and smoked. I glanced at him. "Does it still hurt?" "...what?" "Your neck," I asked. Johnnie gulped as he shook his head. "Hey so um.. back to when you said you like me-" "you should head back to your dorm,it's getting late. You don't want to worry your girlfriend would you?" I paused. "Johnnie," He gazed at me. "Listen to me okay? I don't care about Diana. I just want to stay with you. Is that.. okay?"

I hesitated. "It's best if you don't," I mumbled as I got up and was about to leave when Jake grabbed me. I signed as I turned around to face him and told him to just go back and we could talk about it tomorrow. He looked down as he let go of me and I left.

I watched him leave as I signed and butted the cigarette and left as well. I walked back to Diana's dorm as she greeted me with a hug. "Where'd you go? I missed you so muchhh-" "cut the crap, I know what you did," Diana stopped dead in her tracks and looked up at me. She let go of me and grabbed something out of her pocket before stabbing me in the leg and I passed out.

I ran back to Tara's dorm and shut the door and fell to my feet and covered my face. "What's wrong?" I was startled and looked up. Tara? "Oh um..what are you doing here? I thought you were going to a party," "never mind that, are you okay?" She asked as she sat down beside me and put her bag away. I curled into a ball as I explained what happen and started how overwhelmed I've been lately. "Oh Johnnie.. come here. It'll be okay," Tara said as she pulled me into a hug and let me cry on her shoulder as she patted my head. She comforted me as I sobbed quietly.

~the next day~

Jake's pov

I woke up, my head hurting like hell. Thank god I don't have class today. I looked around and realized I wasn't with Johnnie anymore. What happen last night? I checked my phone to see that Johnnie texted me. I opened it.

(Their chat)

Johnnie: Hey
Johnnie:Do you wanna meet up?
Johnnie:Or we can call if you want
Jake: Ew why are you texting me, freak?
Johnnie: ..what?
Johnnie:nvm sorry just forget it
Jake: k

Why would I ever wanna meet or call him? Weirdo. But why am I so aggressive towards him? I remember meeting with him last night and we talked in our dorm.. so why am I back in Diana's dorm? I laid back in bed and stared at our text. Fuck it. I called him, not expecting him to answer.

(The call)

Johnnie:I thought you said you didn't want to call m-
Jake: what happen yesterday?
Johnnie: ...
Jake: answer me Johnnie , what happen last night ?
Johnnie:shouldn't I be the one asking you that?
Jake: ...what?
Johnnie: we were at our spot and you confronted me about me liking you and so on so we went back to our dorm and talked about it
Jake: and?
Johnnie: and you also asked me for help cause you feel like this feelings wrong and you wonder why you're so FUCKING RUDE TO ME all of a sudden
Jake: .....
Johnnie: ..
(-Johnnie ended the call-)

Well fuck. What do I do now?

Johnnie's pov

Fuck. Why did I do that? What's wrong with me? Goddammit. I laid in bed as I scrolled on TikTok. My whole fyp was just edits of mostly Jake and me. Why does everything have to remind me of him? Suddenly, Tara texted me," heyy, I won't be coming back to our dorm tonight cause I'm gonna have a sleepover with some friends, I also left u some money for food on ur bedside if you haven't seen it already. Take care<33" Great, I'm all alone.

~at night~

12:00am. I put on my favourite jacket and AirPods Jake bought for me last time, playing a playlist me, Tara and him made with all our favourite songs together. I left Tara's dorm and ran up to the rooftop. I made sure there was nobody as I fell to my knees and sobbed loudly as the rain poured down on me. I went to sit on the edge. This edge is so slippery. I texted Tara,"I'm sorry" ,knowing she wouldn't have enough time to get to me no matter what. I put my phone away as I admired the rain. I smiled for the last time and thought of all the great memories I've made before jumping off.
