He's the one (Jack Gilinsky)

Chapter 8

-Jack's P.O.V-

I got in my car and drove over to Amanda's house. I remember the kiss of course and I wanted to set things straight. I wasn't embarrassed and I don't regret it. Yeah I was drunk but I know what I felt.

I went up to her window, like the usual and she faintly smiled.

"You can use the door you know." She laughed with me.

"Yeah but it's not as fun."

"Wanna go on a walk?" She asked and I followed her downstairs. We began walking around her neighborhood.

"So.. Last night" she seemed nervous. "Look I'm usually not like that. I don't want you to think I'm some type of girl who gets around. I've honestly never been drunk and I'm sorry I kissed you. I have never felt so embarrassed of my actions. I hope you can forgive me." She stopped to look me dead in the eye.

"Of course I forgive you" we began walking and she loosened up a little bit.

My heart began to beat "and I don't regret it. We may have been drunk but it felt right" she stopped and looked at me. Her body became stiff and I've never seen her like this. She didn't say anything.

"Amanda?" Her eyes got red and she looked down.

"I'm- I'm so sorry Jack" she started to run towards her house. Did I say something wrong? Did she not feel the same? I felt like I should run after her, so I chased her.

"Amanda! I'm sorry I didn't know!" She got to her house and I followed. She closed her bedroom door on me and I began knocking.

"I shouldn't have said anything."

Then I got a crazy idea to go through her window. I climbed up and succeeded. She was crying so I went to sit next to her.

"I didn't mean to hurt you."

She lifted her head a little but didn't look at me "it's not anything you said. I just felt like I have been getting too close to you, and I know that one day you'll find someone better and hurt me or something. I can't risk having my heart broken and I can't handle the pain of knowing you like someone like me." She put her face in her hands.

"What do you mean someone like you? Yeah it might take time for you to warm up to someone, but that doesn't make you any different from anyone. I do like you but if you don't like me, I can wait until you do."

She finally looked at me and gave a weak smile "I'm sorry I'm so broken. You're a great guy, Jack. One day you'll find someone." She smiled again.

"I'm hoping that someone will be you. I'll wait for you."

She hugged me tightly. She was my best friend and I was going to help her through her dark faze. Then she could be with me.
