Sam's POV.

"What was that about?" I ask Mark.

"What?"

"Why were you and Joey being rude to each other? I saw it." He shrugs.

"I don't know.." He says, messing with his hair.

"Mark I know when you're lying. Come on." He sighs.

"Not when Jack is here." He whispers to me. I nod slowly.

"Well, Jack do you want to go home?" He nods.

"Yeah. I have to do some things." I nod.

"Can you take him home?" Mark nods. We all get in to the car. Mark starts the car and leaves the school.

"So, how was skipping school?" I ask Jack, looking behind me.

"It was good. I had fun." Mark smiles at that.

"Well that's good." Mark pulls up to Jack's house.

"Bye guys."

"I'll talk to you later Jack." Jack gets out.

"So, what was that about?" I ask Mark. He pulls out of the driveway.

"Um, me and Joey already know each other..." I give him a confused look.

"You do?" He nods slowly.

"How-" he cuts me off.

"We dated.."

"Really..?" He nods.

"Yeah, uh we dated for a while and he cheated on me so we broke up. Of course he didn't like that so he.. um, I guess you could say, abused me? So I moved. I got a new boyfriend and he found out. I actually don't know exactly why he did but he broke us up. He actually tried to get back together with me a year ago. He found out where I lived. I'm kind of worried that he's here..." I sigh.

"He was flirting with Jack..." Mark stops the car and turns to me.

"He did what?"

"He flirted with Jack and Jack seemed to be enjoying it.." I say. Mark turns away, looking out the window.

"He already made me loose someone important to me, he's not gonna do it again..." I nod slowly.

"What are we gonna tell Jack?"

"I don't know, just tell him that he needs to stay away from him." I groan.

"Look Mark, it's not that easy. He'll ask me why and won't let it go until I tell him what's going on." Mark sighs.

"Well I just-" Mark covers his face with his hands, tears falling down his cheeks slowly. "I don't w-want him to hurt J-jack.." I nod.

"I'll do whatever I can. Okay? We won't let that happen.." I say, rubbing his back.

"God I just- I wish Jack knew how much he means to me.." I sigh.

"Do you wanna go see if we can hang out with Jack? Right now?" I ask. Mark looks up.

"He said he had stuff to do.." I nod.

"Yeah, but, knowing Jack he probably meant that he was gonna take a shower and play video games." Mark laughs.

"Text him first." I nod and pull out my phone. I open Jack's contact.

Can me and Mark maybe come over and play video games with you?

I guess.

"We can." I tell Mark. He turns the car on, turning around and driving back to Jack's house. We get out and walk up to the door, knocking.

"Hey guys." Jack says opening the door.

"Why are you already wearing pajamas?" I ask. He shrugs.

"They're comfy. Now get your ass in here and let's play some games." We walk in and follow Jack upstairs into his room.

"So, what game?" Mark asks, sitting on the bed.

"Mario kart?" Jack says. Mark nods.

"You?" Jack asks, turning to me. I nod.

Jack's POV.

We start the game and I was already loosing, only because of Mark.

"Hey! That's cheating!" I yell, pushing mark.

"No?! Taking your controller is perfectly okay!" I climb on top of Mark's lap, reaching for my controller.

"Mark! Give it to me!!" I try and reach for it, causing me to fall on top of Mark.

"Hi.." He says. I smile and quickly grab the controller, turning around.

"You shit head!" I laugh and restart the race.

"You guys are so fucking weird I swear." I throw a pillow at Sam.

"Shut up." We start the race again.

- Time Skip -

Sam's POV.

"Hey guys I'm gonna go." Mark says, getting up.

"Why...?" Jack asks, dragging out the 'y'.

"Because I'm tired you dipwad. You are too." Mark puts on his jacket and leaves the room.

"Jack you do look tired." I say. He groans.

"I'm fine." I laugh.

"Whatever you say.." I walk over to him and sit down on the bed.

"So, about you and Joey.." Jack looks up at me.

"What about him?" Jack asks.

"Do you really think he's attractive? Let alone worth your time?"

"He's extremely attractive to me, and if I had the chance I'd probably try o get to know him better. Maybe go on a date. I don't know." I look at him.

"What about your secret admirer??" I ask. He shrugs.

"His phone is shut off for one, and I don't know....he seems cool and all, but I just- I don't know.." I sigh.

"Okay..well I should be leaving. See you later Jack." I say. I get up and leave his room, walking outside. I pull out my phone.

Sam: um Mark, we have a problem

Mark: what?

Sam: Jack thinks joes attractive and he said he would take him on a date if he had the chance. I asked him what he thought about the secret admirer, you know, you. He said he's basically loosing the connection with you.

Mark: what am I supposed to do? I'm loosing him Sam. You don't understand how bad I want Jack to be mine. He's my everything.

Sam: look Mark, I can't help you every time something goes wrong and in all honesty I don't know how to fix this problem.
