Jack's POV

I wake up and roll over to the other side of my bed. I open one eye and groan, grabbing my phone. I see that I have a message and open it.

M: hey, my phone is back on. Just wanted to say good morning xx

I smile and reply.

Jack: morning

I put my phone down and get up, walking over to my dresser. I find clothes and put them on. I walk into my bathroom and brush my teeth. I grab my phone.

Jack: Sam u up?

Sam: yeah. Why?

Jack: do you wanna go to the park or something??

Sam: yeah, I'll be over in a minute

I put my phone in my pocket and grab my hoodie, putting it on. I hear a knock at the door and run downstairs, opening the door.

"Hey Sam." I walk out and close the door.

"Why did you wanna go to the park?" I shrug.

"I'm bored I guess... Didn't really have anything else to do." He nods and we walk to the park. I feel my phone vibrate and pull it out of my pocket.

Message from M: has everything been okay lately?

Jack: yeah. I'm fine.

M: are you sure??

Jack: I'm positive. Just been over thinking a lot of things and shit. It's nothing.

M: well I'm always here for you Jack. Really.

Jack: thank you, mystery person

"Who was that?" Sam asks. I put my phone away.

"Mystery person.." He nods.

"Are you okay?" He asks.

"Why does everyone keep asking me that?!" I yell, frustrated.

"Whoa Jack, Calm down."

"I'm just tired of everyone asking me that. I don't know whats wrong." I say. We get to the park and sit on a bench.

"So, you're sure you don't know what's wrong?" I shrug.

"I just- the mystery person thing, not knowing is pissing me off. Mark just-him. I don't- the thing with my mom." Sam pulls me into a hug.

"I'm sorry. I just really can't tell you who it is yet. He's not ready. Okay?" I nod.

"What about Mark??" I sigh.

"I don't know- just him necessarily liking me and crap. It's bothering me." He nods.

"Your mom?"

"What I did to her... you know, yelling at her and shit." He nods again.

"Well, for that you need to talk to her. Say you're sorry. Okay?" I nod.

"Other then that, everything's fine?" He asks.

"Yea." He smiles at me.

"Hey Jack!" Joey walks over and I get up and hug him.

"Hey." He smiles at me.

"Hey Sam."

"What are you guys doing here?"

"Talking." He nods.

"Well, Sam, if you don't mind do you think I could steal Jack from you?" Sam gets up and hugs me.

"Have him. Later Jack."

"Bye."

"Where are we going?" I ask.

"I was wondering if you wanted to see a movie with me?" I smile.

"Like a date?" He nods.

"Well then, yeah. I'll go." He smiles and we walk over to his car, getting in.

"So what movie?"

"Whatever movie you wanna see." I nod. After a while of talking, we got to the movie theater and got out.

"Did you decide yet?" I nod.

"Yeah. Can we see Star Wars?" (I know it isn't out yet. I get to see it :p)

"That's fine." We walk in and get our tickets and food.

~Time Skip, 2 hours later~

Jack's POV.

"That was amazing!!" I say.

"It was cool."

"I didn't know you liked Star Wars." I say. Joey shrugs.

"I just think its cool." I nod.

"Well thank you." He shrugs.

"No problem. Let's get you home." We get back in his car and he starts driving back to my house.

"But really Joey, thank you for the movie."

"It was nothing Jack." He smiles at me. We get to my house and we both get out. Joey takes my hand in his.

"I hope you had a good time."

"I did." He smiles and leans in. I grab his face and press our lips together. We let go.

"Bye."

"Bye Jack." He gets back in his car and leaves. I open the door and walk inside.

"Jack?" I look over and see my mom.

"What?"

"Who was that guy outside?" I groan.

"No one." I start walking upstairs, but she stops me.

"No, he wasn't just no one. I saw him kiss you. Cut the shit McLoughlin." I sigh.

"I don't even know what we are. He took me on a date. Okay?" She nods. I start walking upstairs, but she stops me again.

"By the way, Sam came over. He was telling me about the outburst and everything. I know you didn't mean it." I run down the stairs and hug her.

"I'm sorry." She hugs me back.

"It's fine."

"Can I go upstairs now?" We pull away and she nods. I walk upstairs and fall on my bed. I sigh.
