       Drake's POV
   
      I got down from my black Audi while reciting the words to tell Jo that we were over.
      I'm a tough guy and a very scary one at that with the tattoos that run up my forearm, it didn't make it any less scarier, the kind of guy that parents tell their kids to stay away from but when it comes to Jo, I feel like shitting my pants.

       I can't face her angry self. God knows what she'll do to me and all because of Janelle. I really liked Janelle and I wanted to actually date her. Shocker right. But I had to do it. I still remember her voice in my head

Flashback

     "Yo, Janny" I waved to Janny who leaned by her locker updating her Instagram story. She was in a tight crop top and low-rise jeans that did justice to her beautiful figure.
      "Hey" she answered arranging her wavy black hair that was a little rough.

       "So, will you go to prom with me" I flashed her my brightest smile and I swear I saw her swoon. No girls could resist my smile. Not even Jo.

       "Of course, but under three conditions" This was always the problem I had with girls, they always demand something. If she was another person I would have walked away. A whole me walked up to her and asked her out and she demands. This is so ironic.

        "And that will be" I yawned

         "Number 1: I want you to be the perfect date. I don't want you standing me up halfway or before the prom"
          "Number 2: you have to be my boyfriend for the time being"

        "Number 3: if you really want me you must end things with all your flings including Josephine"
 
       Okay, that was my breaking point. Who the hell did she think she was. Jo was a natural instincts to me. I can't imagine ending things with her.

        I don't know why but I'm addicted to her. Everyone knows I can't go a whole day without her.

      "Janny-"

      "Don't Janny me, do you want me or not. If you do, then follow my three conditions" she slammed her locker and walked away.

End of flashback

     And that's how I ended up here. I'm only doing this because I like Janny a lot and I've never been with her. Sometimes I question myself of I'm doing this to get in her pants.

       I dial Nathan's number because I really need advice right now. No girl has ever made me feel the need to choose.

       Nathan picks the call and I let out a sigh of relief.
       "You dumped her yet" he sounds really eager for me to end things with Jo.

        "No dumbass, I can't, I can't let her go" the words feel bitter as they roll of my tongue.

         "Man, you're acting as if you're in love with her" I knew it was a bad idea to call Nathan.

        "I called you to give me advice, not to spit out bullshit"
        "I'm telling the truth, Do you want Janelle or what"
      
         "Of course I do" I facepalmed myself and rubbed my temples. All this drama was starting to give me a headache.

         "I'll just text her man" That seemed like the simplest idea to go with.
         "Wimp" Nathan said before I ended the call.
         Call me a wimp, but it was better than facing Jo's anger.
       
         I get a lot of angry remarks from girls. From crying girls to angry girls. Some even beg.

         Though it's a headache, I can deal with all of them. But with Jo, her anger has always been something to stay away from.
   
        I get into my car and pull onto the road. This seemed like the best decision to make. I was just going to text Jo saying that we are over. Simple and easy.
I mean what was the worst that could happen?
