I'm all alone in this world

Loves a game

Jack POV

"What made you change your old ways" The beauty sighed. "Mel" I trailed off. "I'm sorry for what happened before. I didn't know it would all go as far as it did. I'm really sorry I was young and stupid. I was too busy caught up in being popular than I was caught up in my friends". She stared at me and you could see her internally scream. I wouldn't be shocked if she was mad at me. She mumbled something I couldn't quiet make out and I frowned. Friends. Frieeennnds. The word seemed sickening almost to my ears. Stupid crush that isn't a crush. It's probably just me being stupid and confused. I took a look at her face and smiled. I felt a physical pain in my chest realizing I would never be able to call her mine. Fuck why would I care if she was mine. I didn't like her. I don't like her. I don't like her. I don't like her. Okay, maybe I like her. Fuck, she just had to have those gorgeous eyes, plump lips, her buttoned nose, and stunning jaw line. Why'd she have to be so damn remarkable. It didn't help her personality was as beautiful as her. She was smart and kind, would rather die than see someone hurt, was a straight A student. Her heart was too pure for this world. I snapped out of my trance realizing I was probably gawking at her like an idiot. To cover up my obvious resting drool face, I grinned like a doofus and continued tickling her till she screamed 'Mercy'. At one point Wren walked downstairs carrying Sean's entire kitchen practically. He had a shit ton of chips, 2 litters of soda, sandwiches, chocolate, and so much more. You name it. My mouth watered at the sight. Melina's eyes became faded at the sight of food and she turned her head to the game controller. I shrugged it off assuming she wasn't hungry. And grabbed a bag of chips. Okay, three bags but what could I say I was hungry. That and the fact they were Doritos. I was always a slut for Doritos. The majority of my Instagram was made up of food porn. I have a slight problem. That and the fact that the rest of my account consisted of photos of myself and unflattering photos of my friends. "I ordered a pizza by the way" Wren grinned placing more food on the table. "Jesus Christ. I've never met some one who ate as much as me" I laughed shoving chips down my throat. "Alright so let's get this baby hooked up" Wren grinned. I helped him hook everything up and started playing call of duty.
"Cheater" Melina mumbled under her breath. She wasn't wrong though, I did kinda cover her eyes so she couldn't see while Wren killed her. Oops. "What can I say I'm competitive love" I said dropping the controller, I put my hands in the air as if to say I give up. "Hey guys. Sorry dad was riding my ass" Sean called from the stairs, "by the way have any of you guys seen my wallet". The doorbell rang to interrupt his question. Wren slid past him and returned moments later with a pizza. "Here you go dude" Wren smiled deviously handing Sean a small brown wallet. "I hate all of you".

"Oh my god. Mouth orgasm" I groaned biting into the cheesy goodness. "I forgot you said that" Melina giggled softly.
"Hey Sean, Uh do you guys have any tea. I think im gonna go make some, you can take my place in the game" Melina asked flattening her shirt. "Uh yea i'll show you where" he smiled back softly. Wren went to say something but stopped due to them heading upstairs. "So" he grinned whipping around to see me, "when are you going to make your move?" I stared at him for a while I knew what he meant, but I was praying he meant 'hey turn on the game so I can beat your ass'. "In the game" I shrugged. "No dipshit. With Mel. I've seen how you look at her" he stated. "You know I can't make a move dude. Sean likes her, and, and, well, you know what happened. She couldn't possibly trust me again" I stuttered. "Bro trust me she has a thing for you, she'll learn over time to trust you, believe me" Wren said serious for once in his life. "Look I know, it's just I don't want to hurt her. Not again" my voice was barely above a whisper. "Alright, but if you don't make a move soon. Someone else will" he shrugged. I know... I want to call her mine but she never was mine to have in the first place...
I un-paused the game and got killed due to a clouded mind. I wasn't in the mood to play video games. This time Wren clicked pause. "Okay dude I hate this whole girly touchy feely shit but you need it. What even happened between you two?" he asked. "Fuck" I mumbled. Sean and Melina walked down moments later. "Oh thank god. Guys you're back. Phew" I laughed exhaling with relief. Melina blushed as she sat next to me. Sean gave her a look, she grimaced. "Can you pass a bag of chips" she smiled forcefully. Another look. "And a slice of pizza" she smiled even more forcefully. I handed it all over gladly. She poked at her food and whipped off the grease. I decided now was the perfect time was to do a few of my "famous" pickup lines. This was gonna be fun.
