Chapter 2:

Before i knew it, I heard the doorbell ring. When i opened it i saw my best friend looking at me with weak, red eyes. Her tear stained cheeks were puffier than ever. I could tell she had been bawling her eyes out. I wrapped my arms around her in a sympathetic hug. I couldn't stand to see her like this.

"You know i could tell you how guys are just a bunch of assholes but im pretty sure you know that already. How bout a better phrase? I have ice cream?"

i can see a smile peak at the corner of her mouth as i lead her to the living room. My parent are out at a friends tonight, thank god, so i don't have to worry about that. I walked over to the dvd player and popped in "mean girls" I set Jacey up with a warm blanket and went into the kitchen to look for the ice cream.

JACEYS POV: 

God i love Charlie. She always knows just what i need to hear. Shes also very much aware that when im upset i really do not want to talk about it, hence how she just popped in a movie, which im assuming was an attempt to distract me from the lingering thoughts of my now-ex-boyfriend. I tried to ask him why but all he said is that i would understand tomorrow after Payton talks to Charlie. God i hope he doesn't break up with her too. It would crush her. I guess i just dont have the heart to tell her that something might be up.. But whatever i have my own shit to deal with anyway. I was the one who actually just got dumped right?   I saw Charlie come back with a bucket of strawberry ice cream and two spoons. We spent the rest of the night watching old girly movies. The next thing i knew i was asleep on her couch.

 Charlies POV: 

I woke up the next morning to a sleeping Jacey on the couch. I suddenly recalled the events of last night and it clicked in that i still needed to meet up with Payton today. I left a note on the table for Jacey reading

"hey Jace, keep your head up. I had to go meet up with Payton to "talk". I dont know. Ill be back soon, help yourself to whatevers in the fridge. Love, Charlie" 

I down the hall to my room and started tearing through my drawers for something to wear. I finally decided on light gray, torn skinny jeans, and a baggy seafoam green tank top with black  crsette style string holding the back together. I laced up my black converse shoes that go halfway to my knees. I threw a black studded bow in my hair and some silver bangles on. I teased the back of my bright red hair and added some hairspray to make it stay. I flat ironed my bangs and put on some eyeliner. When i was satisfied with what i saw, i headed out the door to the rec center to meet up with Payton. I felt my phone go off in my pocket. I checked it to find a new message from Payton.

Payton: hey are you still coming to the rec?

Charlie: yea im on my way

Payton: ok see you soon

I put my phone back in my pocket and before i knew it i was walking in the door of the rec.
