ANOTHER TEENAGE DRAMA

Jess POV:

I watch Reese slowly nod her head, agreeing to be Ryan’s date. Shi—hold up, I’m not allowed to curse. Damn, I’m one heck of a stupid jerk. Why am I like this?

Its all my fault anyway. If I hadn’t accept Ryan’s challenge and just asked her instead I could have stand a chance, but what the heck happened. In the first place, why did I accept his challenge?

Ryan is the three point shooter and the recent MVP in the recent championship cup, while I’m just a mere guard. See the difference?

What shocks me most is that his making his moves on Reese. I’ve been on the team as long as Ryan, in that term I knew his reputation by heart and I also knew from the very start that Reese is just a rebound when Farah broke up with him.

Every time I see Reese hang out with Ryan I just want to bet the crap out of him. I always wanted to wipe that malicious face he has. I knew this was all an act that’s why I ask the help of Reese friends to warn her but it was all in waste.

I watch them as Reese wrap her arms around Ryan. I felt my heart tightens with sadness and anger. I saw Monique and Alex made their way from the applauding crowd. Monique quickly wrap her hands round Reese while Alex hang back with a disappointing look on her face. I saw Alex shot me a look on my way.

I sigh and slowly made my way towards them. The steps I made gets heavier until I made it to them.

“Congratulations!” I slap Ryan’s back.

Ryan shot me his usual flirty smile. “Thanks.”

I turned to Reese and smiled even though it hurts “Take good care of my friend.”

She nodded “Will do.”

I quickly turn my back and exited the gym. If I stay for a minute I’ll punch Ryan. All of this is all a play.  This whole asking to prom was an act. He paid everyone to participate in this event. The teachers, principal, guards, and even the janitor knew nothing about the reason why they are in the gym. All they knew is that Ryan is a lovesick boy and needed Reese to say yes that she would go to prom with him, and now he made it.

I felt my phone vibrated in my pocket. I fish it out to see Alex name on the screen.

Alex:  What the heck happened?

Jess: It happened.

Alex: I thought…

Jess: yeah, we thought the same thing.

I stare at my phone feeling a little bit light headed. At least one person is on my side.

Alex: I really appreciate you walking out like that.

Jess: J I know because I’m cool.

Alex: I know a perfect song for you.

Jess: What is it?

Alex: thinking…

Alex: When I was your man. By Bruno Mars.

Jess: freaking no way!

Alex: Why?

Jess: she was never been mine from the very start

Alex: don’t care.

Jess: :] leave it. It happened.

 I walk towards my locker. The hallway was so quiet that I could even hear myself think. I thought of the possible questions that might lead to what is happening right now. Sad to say it only leads to one thing, I lost Reese to Ryan. In other terms she’s off-limits already.

Alex: meet me at the library

Jess: now?

Alex: NOW!

 I sigh and quickly took my bag and slowly made my way towards the library that was across the school. The library is located at the East wing in that case I have to pass through the gym to reach my destination.

While I was walking I couldn’t help but sang a song in my mind. I know this might sound crazy but it’s the only song that crossed my mind.

“I’m broken, do you hear me?

I’m blinded, ‘cause you are everything I see,

I’m dancin’ alone, I’m praying,

That your heart will just turn around,

And as I walk up to your door,

My head turns to face the floor,

‘Cause I can’t look you in the eyes and say,

When he opens his arms and holds you close tonight,

It just won’t feel right,

‘Cause I can love you more than this, yeah,

When he lays you down,

I might just die inside,

It just don’t feel right,

‘Cause I can love you more than this,

Can love you more than this”

If only I can sing this for her. I will.

XOXO

A/N: Hey guys! Sorry for the long wait. Its been a busy week for me. Maybe when I'll have a spare time I'll update right away!

XOXO,
