I Don't Care If Heaven Won't Take Me Back

Chapter Sixteen: Mine

"Seriously Jack pay attention! You need to pass this test or you won't graduate tomorrow" I snapped.

Jack had failed his American Lit final, Mr. Anderson was nice enough to let him retake it this afternoon so we're trying to cram in as much studying as we can.

"I know!" He pulled his hair in frustration. "I'm not you! this stuff doesn't just stick in my head like song lyrics!"

"Okay let's just do easy questions first" I sighed "who attacked Pearl Harbor?"

He looked at me like I was stupid "Japan"

"And what was the war known as?"

"World war 2" he answers correctly.

"Okay" I smiled "In what year did Japan attack?"

"Kate" he sighed.

"Jack it's not that hard"

"1941 or 42 I can remember"

"1941" I laughed "1942 was when the Germans planed to exterminate the Jew's that were placed in concentration camps"

"God Hitler was a sick man"

"I know.. It's so sad" I sighed seriously thinking about that man and what he did to so many innocent people makes me sick "moving on"

"Who was the president of the U.S. During the Second World War?"

Jack looked at me like he wanted to kill me for asking all these questions. Actually his look was more blank as if he didn't care, but he needed to care. He will graduate tomorrow if I have anything to do with it.

"Your tits look good today babe" he smirked his signature smirk.

I threw my hands in the air and closed the book "I give up!" I sighed standing up.

"Ahh c'mon" he laughed fallowing me "I'm just trying to give my girl a compliment"

I laughed "ha okay.. Have fun passing you final because you need to take it in.." I looked at my phone "four minutes"

"Just enough time for a quickie" he smirked.

"I will do absolutely anything you want tonight" I smirked " if you pass that test"

"If that doesn't give me motivation then nothing will" he kissed me and walked into the class room.

While Jack was taking his test I walked around the school trying to figure out topic points for my speech tomorrow. It's weird roaming these halls I have spent so much time in knowing this will be one of my last days as a student here. Honestly my whole high school career was amazing other then the begging of this year when me aka Vergin Mary got pregnant but after that passed it all went back to normal. I have spent so much time wanting to leave this place but now that I think about it I'm not ready yet.

"Mrs. Jensen!" One of my teachers walked up to me.

"Hi Mr. Henderson" I smiled at him.

"I just wanted to say congratulations on being valedictorian! And also on the pregnancy" he spoke kindly.

"Thank you, this speech is going to kill me though I have no idea what to say" I laughed "I have always planned on what I would say but now that the time is here I have no idea"

"Just say what's on your mind. Talk about your time here, your experience and the future... I have to get going Kate, I'll be cheering you on tomorrow" he came up and hugged me he was always one of my favorite teaches.

I walked to my locker so I could clean it out while I still waited for Jack to Finnish. I was interrupted when someone slammed my door shut.

"Dammit Sammy you scared the crap out of me" I said holding my chest.

"Hah sorry" he laughed "what are you still doing here?"

"Jacks retaking Anderson's final.. Why are you here?"

"Saying goodbye I guess" Sammy said sitting down against the lockers as I sat next to him "it's weird we spent most of our lives together every day, now it's all over"

"I know.." I sighed "even though I have a feeling we will still see each other a lot"

"That's true.. I can't stay away from you" he laughed. "If you think about it.. It's kinda always been me you Madeline and skate.. Until Jack and Johnson become more of our group"

What Sammy said was true that was our friend group it was always us four. I mean yes Johnson and Jack were around but really only hung out with the boys.

"And it always will be well and the jacks... And now the baby" I laughed nudging him.

"Your right " Sammy smiled "I gotta get going, my mom has a dinner planned.. I'll see you tomorrow.. Your the pregnant one giving the speech right?" He pretended to be confused.

I raised my hand "that would be me" we both laughed as he walked off.

I finished cleaning out my locker then went to jacks. His was like something you would find under a child's bed. Full of things that have been missing and so much garbage. I started throwing crumpled up papers away then I spotted one. It was a written conversation between the jacks they must have done in class.

Jack: Have you heard the rumor about Kate?
Johnson: yea.. Everyone's talking about it do you think it's true?
Jack: I don't know, Tammy said she heard it from Madeline...
Johnson: who do you think the dad is?
Jack: Me.......
Johnson: your joking right?
Jack: no, look I could be wrong but we hooked up the night of the championship.
Johnson: I know you have always had a thing for her. But Please tell me you didn't just sleep with her and leave, Sammy and Skate would kill you.
Jack: What no! This is Kate were talking about. I was going to ask her if she wanted to go out sometime but before I could she told me it was a mistake and to not tell anyone. The sex just kinda happened.
Johnson: so what if you are the dad?
Jack: honestly..... Yea it's not the most ideal situation, but I think I would be happy, like you said it's Kate. My Kate.

I felt the tears streaming down my face as I read the crumpled up piece of paper. He's told me that's how he has always felt but reading it just confirms it all over again. In his eyes I was his. Before I even thought of being in a relationship with Jack I was his.

"I GOT A D- I PASSED" I heard jacks familiar voice yell from down the hall, as I looked up I saw him running towards me.

"Congr-"

I was cut off by Jack picking me up bridal style "Home... sex.. now!" He demanded carrying me out to the car.

"Yes sir" I saluted him.

So we got home and he got what he wanted not once but twice. Needless to say Jack was happy and so was I. If it wasn't for finding that note witch I made sure to keep I don't think I would have been able to keep going. But now it's time for bed. Tomorrow is a big day, tomorrow we graduate, a chapter of our lives is ending.. But then again, another is definitely beginning.
