Chapter 16

Kathryn's pov

I wait impatiently outside the school for Jaycie. I look for her car but she isn't here yet. She hasn't parked in her reserved spot. She couldn't have parked somewhere else because you have to get your spot before the school year starts so that nobody has trouble getting here. I tap my foot on the ground and wait. I need to talk to her about this weekend. I need to know what happened. A few moments later I spot Jake getting out of his car and I run to him.

"Jake!" I yell.

He turns around and walks to me.

"Yeah?"

"Have you seen Jaycie?"

"No," Jake replies seeming annoyed at her name," she's probably with Harry."

"Jake you can't seriously be jealous of that freak."

"I'm not. She just seems to have a certain interest in him."

"No she doesn't. Don't be silly she loves you."

"That's what I thought until Harry showed up at her house while we were together. Plus I saw them holding hands at chick-fil-a."

I'm left lost for words and I just stare at Jake. He grunts and walks away. I stand there a while until Jaycie comes over and pokes me.

"Hey, you look like you've seen a ghost," she laughs.

"Jaycie," I say firmly," what happened this weekend?" I say staring her down. She looks down and bites her lip.

"It's a long story," she mumbles.

"I've got time."

"I'll tell you at lunch. I have to get to class," she says walking away.

"Hey! Don't think you're getting our of this conversation," I say.

"I know. God what are you, my mother."

"Right now I am," I say.

She runs off to class. I'm getting this story out of her no matter what.

Jaycie's pov: *Lunch*

Today Harry and I went back to the normal school thing. We would only talk when we had to and we wouldn't look at each other. I couldn't help it sometimes though, I just had to look at him. After school we'll go back to how it was on the weekend, but when my parents come back its all over. It makes my heart hurt that we can't be together, but he says he's keeping me safe. I figured I might as well apologize to Jake for what happened, but I haven't had the courage all day.

I sit down next to Kathryn and start to eat.

"Okay, spill it," Kathryn says.

I sigh," okay, fine. On Thursday, Jake came to my house and he tried to get me to sleep with him." Kathryn gasped and I continued. "I was letting him but then I stopped because..... I just didn't want to. He got mad and when he was leaving the house, Harry was at the front door. That's just made him more mad, but I didn't know Harry was coming at all. It surprised me just as much. Ummm he was hurt and I bandaged him up."

"What happened to him?" Kathryn interrupts. "Ummm," I don't want to tell her what happened so I have to lie," he didn't say." She just nods and I continue. "That night, Harry and I.... We kissed." Kathryn gasps and her hand covers her mouth. "And I really liked it. It was.... Beautiful," I smiled.

"When I said kiss Harry I was only kidding. I didn't actually want you to kiss that freak!" She yelled.

"Hey! I kissed him back! I kissed him by my choice! And he's not a freak. You just don't understand him!"
