Impassivity - Staying calm without showing emotions.
JAKE'S POV
And there it was. That feeling of falling in slow-motion, like I was weightless and drifting through an endless void. My eyelids pulled themselves together as I felt my chest getting tighter, but not like it hurt. I took a deep yet slow breath in, allowing myself to appreciate this moment of euphoria.
Lexy : It hit you yet?
Jake : mhm.
And suddenly, I had been transported into a different me.
Jake : yeah... how strong is this?
Lexy : pretty fucking strong.
~~~
Me and Lexy stumbled out of the bathroom as the pills over took my body, almost forcing me to move in a dancing motion, like the music was over flowing my body.
DEVON'S POV
I watched Jake practically stomp his way down the stairs, his eyes seemingly focused on nothing, yet he had a smile on his face.
He came into the corridor I was standing in.
Devon : Jake?
He looked up and met my eyes, but there was something different about his eyes.
Jake : DEVON!
The boy threw himself onto me.
Devon : Jake, what the fuck are you doing?!
I got him off of me. He seemed a little saddened by it.
Devon : Sorry, just don't jump on me again please.
Jake : yeah I'm sorry.
He started walking off.
Devon : Where are you going?!
Jake : To go find a boy to fuck!
What the flying fuck? He's putting himself in so much fucking danger and for what?! Some dumb as shit asshole of a boy?!
I'm not letting that happen.
I grabbed his arm.
Devon : Um no you're not.
Jake : and why is that?
Devon : because we're going up stairs!
I dragged him through the crowds of people until we found an unoccupied room.
Jake sat on the bed.
Jake : Devon, what the fuck are you doing? There's a fucking party downstairs and we're just sat in this room together.
Devon : I'm keeping you from getting used by some asshole.
Jake : Do I look like I need protection?! And so what if I wanna go have some fun?
His eyes lit up in an almost maniacal way.
He stood up from the bed and inched closer to me.
Devon : What are you doing?!
Jake : You know Dev, there's no need to be jealous.
My face began to boil.
Devon : Jealous?! What makes you think I'm jealous?
Jake : Because, Devon Evans, you don't give a shit about me. And you're "protecting me from assholes?"... need I remind you of a story about a girl that YOU cheated on.
Devon : What?! So you think I'm just like every other asshole in this place?!
His voice became softer as he got close to me.
Jake : All I'm saying is if the shoe fits, wear it Cinderella.
I turned to walk out the room, but felt this force telling my body not to open the door.
I turned back around to the boy with a smirk on his face.
Devon : No. You know what Jake...
I stepped closer to him this time.
Devon : you can go fuck your self.
Jake : What?
Devon : You heard me. You're just too fucked in the fucking head to even realise that I actually do give a shit about you. Your perception of the world and people is so grotesquely messed-up that you think everyone is out to get you. I mean even Lexy.
He just stood there in shock.
Devon : So I suggest you take a good long look in the mirror and remember who the real people who care about you are and stop pouting about how much you fucking hate yourself like a little bitch! Wake the fuck up.
Now I felt that weight lift off my shoulders, and that force keeping me here fade into nothing.
I turned around and left the room, slamming the door behind me.

LEXY'S POV
Devon came down the stairs.
Lexy : Dev, have you seen Jake?
He just looked at me in a way that could only be described as "I'm gonna fucking kill him."
Devon : He's up there.
He nodded towards the room.
Lexy : thank you... are you... um, okay?
He didn't reply, just walked past me.
Oh god.
I walked into the room Jake was in, hearing the music get muffled as the door closed.
I found Jake staring at his reflection, tears falling down his face slowly.
Lexy : What the fuck is going on?!
I sat on the bed and gestured him to join me.
Jake : I don't know.
Lexy : Then why is Devon looking royally pissed off.
Jake : we had a little argument is all.
Lexy : About?
Jake : I think he's an asshole and he thinks I'm crazy.
Lexy : Well why are you crying? You aren't crazy.
Jake : What? No I know I'm crazy, I'm crying because he's right, I have this constant feeling of distance... or loneliness... and it's my fault.
Lexy : Jake, one thing you will never have to worry about is being alone, because I am always here, I'm always going to be right here.
Jake finally lifted his eyes to meet mine before he pulled me into a tight hug. He started sobbing.
Jake : I love you Lex.
Lexy : Awhh, I love you too.
Jake : C'mon, there's a party to get to.
He laughed.
Lexy : THAT'S MA BOY!
He smiled to himself.
