Once I finish 'shopping' with Cayden I go home to get ready for Jacobs arrival, rehearsing in my head how I was going to let him down.
I think over what Cayden said at the cafe, that this had something to do with Jack, and I knew deep down that maybe him being here was putting me off my game but I wasn't breaking up with Jacob because of it.
As the doorbell rings I instantly shoot up off of the couch as I approach the door to see Jacob leaning against it giving me his usual charming smile.
"Hey beautiful." He says as he leans in to kiss me but I put my hand between us to stop him. He instantly stops but not before he gives me a sad smile and follows me inside.
The tension in the room made me nervous as he follows me to my bedroom before comfortably taking a seat on my bed waiting for me to speak.
I remain silent for a while looking at him, wondering if I was really doing the right thing but then I told myself that I knew better and that's when I finally found the courage to speak.
"I'm sorry Jacob, but I don't think we should be together anymore." I tell him as he gives me a sad nod.
I want him to be angry, to yell at me but I knew Jacob too well to know he wouldn't do that. Instead he ask me the question that caught me off guard.
"It's because of him, isn't it?"
I didn't need him to say his name to know he was referring to Jack.
"No, at least I don't think so. Look Jacob you and I both know I'm not the girl to be in relationships. You were just getting to close for comfort and I can't have that."
Without another word he gets up leaving my room as I hear the front door shut knowing he was gone.
I turn to my phone to text Cayden.
To Cayden: From Kayla - Just finished the break up.
From Cayden: To Kayla- How'd he take it?
To Cayden: From Kayla- I don't know, I think he took it well.
From Cayden: To Kayla- What did he say?
I hesitate telling him what Jacob asked me but I eventually give in.
From Cayden: To Kayla- He asked if it was because of Jack...
From Cayden: To Kayla- And what did you say.?
To Cayden: From Kayla- No obviously.
From Cayden: To Kayla- Liar
To Cayden: From Kayla- I am this close to driving to you house and kicking your ass if you don't stop this shit about Jack and I.
From Cayden: To Kayla- Oh I'm so scared.
To Cayden: From Kayla- You should be.
From Cayden: To Kayla- That was sarcasm Kayla... You couldn't hurt a fly.
To Cayden: From Kayla- Yeah but I could sure hurt you.
From Cayden: To Kayla- HA I'd like to see you try.
To Cayden: From Kayla-1v1 me mate.
From Cayden: To Kayla- When and where?
Before I can respond I receive another text but from a unknown number as I click the bubble on the top of my screen.
From unknown number: To Kayla- Hey Kayla?
To unknown number: From Kayla- Who is this?
From unknown: To Kayla- Um it's Jack.
I swear I saw red as I begin texting Cayden.
To Cayden: From Kayla- HOW THE FVCK DOES JACK GILINSKY HAVE MY NUMBER!?
