Senior Year of High School::
Savannah~
"Why are you so perfect." I groan as I sit down at my lunch table and slide next to Jack.
"I don't know I ask myself that question every single day." Jack responds with seriousness in his voice.
I playfully slap him on the arm and roll my eyes. "Not you idiot, I'm talking about Cameron."
Cameron Dallas. One of the hottest guys in my school. I have had a crush on him since freshman year. The only problem is, he can have any girl he wants... he'd never like me.
"Why don't you go talk to him then, you have been obsessing over this guy for four years." Johnson says matter-of-factly (a/n Jack Johnson is Johnson and Jack Gilinsky is Jack so you won't be confused.) He makes it sound like its that easy to just go up to him and be like 'Hey I like you lets go out.'
"First of all I don't obsess over him I just really like him and second of all, I have thought of doing that I am afraid to get rejected. Do you think he will like me?"
"Are you kidding me Savannah, your hot and super sweet of course he will like you. He would be stupid not to." Jack says sincerely as he puts his hand on my thigh. I feel my cheeks get warm so I look down so he doesn't see me blushing.
Jack Gilinsky has been my best friend since diapers, our moms have been best friends since college. He knows how insecure I am about myself so he always tries to tell me things that make feel better about myself. And it always works. From what I can remember Jack has been by my side through everything. Like the one time when we were 6 and he fought off the "monsters" in my closet with his lightsaber and to junior year when I had the flu and he skipped school for a whole week to take care of me while my parents were at work. I have known him my whole life, I can tell him everything and we have been through everything.
Me and Jack have those moments when we flirt and we are all touchy feely but we are just friends and us being together would ruin our friendship and I would never want that to happen. Like I have thought of him in that kind of way, like what it would be like to kiss him.
My thoughts are interrupted by the sound of a tray hitting the table. I look up to see my friend Madilyn putting her lunch tray on the table. I look back down the notice Jack's hand left my thigh. "Remind me to never buy lunch at the school again, the line gets so long. These people act like they're getting a five star meal." Madilyn rants as she plops down in the seat next to Johnson. Madilyn looks like a girl Cameron would go after. Perfect hour-glass body, perfect legs, long brown hair, and the prettiest blue eyes.
"There goes Madilyn again ranting about food." Johnson says with laughter in his voice as he drapes his arm around her shoulder. Madilyn glares at him and shrugs his shoulder off her. The thing about her is she tries to act like she isn't in love with Johnson but everyone knows she is, they have a love hate relationship. They confuse me, they say they hate each other but they always hold hands, kiss and you know...lets just say they are friends with benefits.
"Okay guys I know what I am going to do." I blurt out "The whole senior class go invited to Cameron's Halloween party the friday right? I look at everyone and laugh when my eyes land on Madilyn who looks funny when she is confused. "Oh yeah Madilyn I'm planning on talking to Cam for the first time, you know like get to know him and maybe it can turn into something else who knows" I shrug. Her jaw falls open revealing her mushed up pizza. "Ew Mads close you mouth." Jack says shielding his eyes.
"Sorry, I'm just so surprised that Savannah is actually going to talk to him after four years of obsessing over him." Madilyn says sounding surprised.
"I'm not obsessed! And why do you sound so surprised." I pout then cross my arms over my chest.
"I sound so surprised because I am surprised..." She states flatly
"Whatever." I roll my eyes "But anyways, so yeah we are all invited to his party so maybe I can just get my chance to stop being a wimp and talk to him." I say as I take a sip of my Pepsi.
"And then maybe he can be your first kiss and he can take your V card..." Madilyn mutters with a grin on her face.
I choke on my Pepsi and glare at her.I swear I just felt Jack tense up next to me. "You wouldn't do that with him right?" Jack asks looking down at the ground. "You know like let him take that from you."
Before I can answer Madilyn says "Why wouldn't she, like Cam is hot and besides Sav wanting to date him that is something else she wants to do with him as well, so why not?" He looks up and clenches his jaw and balls up his fist underneath the table.
Why is he getting so mad?
"I can speak for myself Mads but thanks. But anyways, I want him to be my first kiss. I know that for sure." I say confidently. Yes I am 17 years old and I'm a senior in high school and I have not gotten my first kiss. Don't judge. "And if we were ever to date I would want my first time to be with him."
"Well just be careful with him Sav, he is just going to use you for sex and then go to someone else a week, he's not a guy you should hang around with." Jack says sounding 100% serious.
"Where is this all coming from?!" I yell but only loud enough for Johnson, Madilyn, and Jack to hear. I'm feeling offended that he is talking about Cam like that.
"Babe, I'm just trying to protect you! Your my bestfriend and I don't want you getting hurt and to turn into one of his sluts of the week." (yes some guys call their girl besties babe. wish i had that >.<)
I scoff "So that's what you think of me." I say coldly "So I will just be his slut because every guy comes to me for sex right?" I say sarcastically.
"N-no Savannah, babe that's not what I-I meant." He stutters as he looks around like he's trying to find the right words. He stutters when he is nervous.
Whatever." I say as I roll my eyes and get up from the table. "Come talk to me when you want to be my supportive bestfriend again." I mutter as I look at Jack before leaving the cafeteria.
