I woke up on my bed, I couldn't remember how I got there. The sun seeped through the blinds of my window, making distinct patterns on my wall. I squinted at the light abusing my eyes.

"Shit...what happened?" I said groggily before forcefully swinging my legs over the side of the bed. I looked over to my bedside table to notice a note, standing against my desk lamp. It was a yellow post-it labeled "(Y/N)"

I took the note from my bedside table and closely looked at it, straining my eyes to see the small words.

"Dearest (Y/N),-" it said. "You looked completely miserable and sad last night, and it hurt me to see you like this. So I scheduled you to not go to school for the rest of this week. I spoke to Principal Alexandrite and she approved. Also, I'll be home late, so order food if you want. Please be careful (Y/N). I don't know what I'd do if something happened to you. Love,  YD."

I smiled at this and flipped the note on the back. "P.S. I bought you your favorite ice cream, look for it in the freezer."

"Yeah...love you too Yellow." I put the note in the drawer of my desk and looked at my clock. "11:45 a.m...it's too early for this shit." I groaned before slamming my face into the pillow.

"Gotta get up sometime (Y/N)." My consciousness said in the back of my head.

I slid out of my bed because it was true. I needed to get up. I do have a life.

At least I think I do.

I walked into my bathroom that's connected to my room and looked into the mirror. My mascara was smudged, my hair was curly from the rain, and my jersey-

Wait.

The jersey.

I looked down at it, my sad memories slowly passing by me at an instant. Tears started to well at my eyes and I clenched my fists.

"Jasper you prick..." I whispered, trying to hold back a cry.

I then roughly took off Jaspers jersey, throwing it aside in the clothes bin. I took my underwear off along with it and stepped into the shower.

"Good-for-nothing son of a pig." I mumbled to myself as I turned on the hot water.

"What is wrong with me? I mean, I'm a pretty good person. I don't fucking UNDERSTAND!" I slammed my hand against the ceramic tiles of the shower and pressed my forehead against the wall. I had a pounding headache and the cool feeling of the tiles calmed me down.

"I just don't get how she'd say these things to me..." I whispered. "She said I was a loser...hah...it's true." I chuckled.

I stood under the hot water, completely inebriated from my emotional pain for an hour or so. My skin was raw and red from the heat but it didn't bother me much.

I got out of the shower, throwing on a pair of old sweatpants and an old band t-shirt along with it.

I wasn't ready for today. No one was, I bet.

I checked the clock.

12:45 p.m.

I've don't nothing productive. Might as well keep it up.

I walked into the hallway, passing Peri-dorks room and down the steps. The house was completely quiet and empty. It was nice for a change.

I circled my way over to the kitchen and opened my top freezer. Everything was bombarded with icicles except my favorite ice cream. I grabbed a large spoon and popped open the lid with ease. I shuffled my way over to my brown leather couch and slumped down on it hard, reaching for the remote and flipping on the tv. Luckily my favorite TV show was playing. Crying Breakfast Friends.

I stared at the TV aimlessly as I continued to binge on my ice cream. I chuckled a bit as Pear started to cry to Waffle.

So far I've watched about 6 episodes which is about an hour. Each episode was 11 minutes long, so each time I watch this, 11 minutes of my life get sucked away.

This episode was about Pear hurting Waffles feelings but only to protect waffle from getting hurt. Pear loved waffle and didn't want anything happening to him.

"I'm sorry Waffle! Please forgive me, I only did this to you because I loved you!" Pear said as his tears streamed down his face.

"I forgive you Pear! I'll always forgive you!" And so Waffle hugged Pear in a symphony of tears and the episode ended.

"If only things were easier like cartoons."  I mumbled to myself. *oh the irony*

I set my empty carton of ice cream on the coffee table next to the used tissues that were all dried and crumpled up from my tears.

"Why do I cry so much over her?" I whispered to myself. "You're way out of your league (Y/N). What are you doing to yourself...?" I leaned back against the couch with my hands up to my face, slowly massaging the tense muscle.

As I scraped my way out of the couch, I thought to myself how much of a loser I am. I trudged my way up the stairs thinking how much of a failure I am. I swung my door open with the anger bottled up inside. But I was too emotionally tired for this. I didn't want to cry anymore. Too much work. So I plummeted onto my bed and shimmied my way into my soft blankets. My shades were closed and the only thing that was illuminated was my lava lamp on the bedside table next to me. It was the same as Jaspers except a different color. It was mixes of blue and purple. I really liked it. And so I stared at it until I couldn't keep my eyes open anymore.

A/N: READ ALL>>>>> Okay so this was a little shorter than I expected but forgive me. I'm going away for a few days for vacation soooo yeah. I probably wont be updating until Monday or Tuesday but yea. Also you can see this chapter is focused on Y/N or You. Just how it impacted you when Jasper said all of those mean and hurtful things. And for those young ones out there who hasn't experienced love pains before, it hurts like a bitch lol. Anyways, the next chapter will be more focused on Jasper than you. Obviously because this one is circled around one person so the next is gonna focus on the other. Anyways, make sure to comment, vote, and follow! <3
