Light Unbridled- Chapter 46: Out of Time

*The scene opens with Zack back in his Freshman year of Highschool. He is talking to a friend of his.*

Zack: Hey, Ray. Are you ready for our first period?

Ray: Not really. I barely got any sleep last night.

Zack: Yeah me neither. Guess that's what happens when we stay up until three in the morning playing video games.

Ray: True that.

*Ray closes his locker but is immediately slammed into it by a bully.*

Zack: Really, David? Again with this shit?

David: This little shit needs to answer for what he did!

Zack: What he did? The hell are you talking about?

Ray: I think I might know what it is.

David: Why the hell are you messaging my girlfriend? How did you get her number?

Ray: How do you think? She gave it to me.

David: Yeah right, like she'd ever give her number to a weirdo like you.

Ray: If you ask me, you're asking the wrong person what's going on. Perhaps you should ask your girlfriend why she's talking to another guy.

David: You're on thin ice here.

*David lets go of Ray and walks off angrily, Ray turns to Jack with a smile on his face.*

Zack: So, you're stealing people's girls now?

Ray: More like his girl is stealing me.

Zack: That's cheesy as hell.

Ray: Maybe. But she really does make me feel so much better.

Zack: Well just make sure she's willing to return you. Remember, Bros before hoes.

Ray: She's not a hoe!

Zack: I didn't mean- you know what I meant.

Ray: Don't worry. She's not gonna ruin my friendships or anything like that.

Zack: Then that's perfect.

Narrator: A week later David's girlfriend broke up with him and began to date Ray. The girl's name was Jessica. The two of them got along very well and went on multiple dates. Zack and Ray still hung out but it was less frequent than before. The two dated for months until suddenly Jessica had a change of heart and decided it wasn't working out.*

Ray: What do you mean babe? Why are you breaking up with me?

Jessica: Because it's just not working. I haven't been entirely truthful with you.

Ray: What are you saying? What haven't you been telling me?

Jessica: I've. . .

Ray: You've what?

Jessica: I've been talking to David.

Ray: What do you mean talking? Like you still have feelings for him?

Jessica: Yes. But we haven't just been talking. Me and him have been seeing each other

Ray: You've been cheating on me?

Jessica: Yes. I'm sorry. It's not you.

Ray: You fucking whore! We're done! Get out! Get out now! Leave!

Jessica: I'm sorry!

*Jessica begins crying and runs out of Ray's house in tears. Ray watches as she runs down the street.*
