Sabrina's POV

(3 months later)

Jacob and I have been together for theses last couple months. We are so happy and I have become much more confident in myself. I'm happy with the way I look and I'm happy with how I act.

I wake up in the morning happy, once again, because today is the last day until Summer break. Who wouldn't be happy about that?

I go to school and I start to head to my first hour. Then I hear something.
"I love you Jacob," I hear somebody say. Jacob?

I look around the corner and see Jacob pinned against the locker in Gabi's grip, them leaning in and kissing. Tears spring to my eyes as I see this. I walk quickly into the girls bathroom and grip my hands around the counter. I take deep breathes, making sure I don't start crying.

Once I calm myself down, I walk into first hour late. I sit next to Jacob, so hopefully he doesn't talk to me. I sit with my head down.

"You okay?" Jacob says putting his hand on my shoulder. I spoke too soon. I smack his hand off and send him a glare.

"Geez, sorry," he mumbles, slightly rolling his eyes. Almost everyone in the class has finished our assignment and we are aloud to just talk. I take out my song book and try to write some lyrics.

"Sabrina, what's wrong?" Jacob asks. I look the other way.

"I don't want to talk about it," I simply reply.

"Please tell me," he says in a pleading voice. I roll my eyes and snap my head over towards him.

"This situation is already bad, don't make it worse!" I snap at him. His eyebrows knit together in confusion.

"What? What did I do?" He asks. I shake my head.

"Leave me alone Jacob," I say. He tries to talk to me, but I just keep writing my songs. The bell rings, signalling is that the first hour has ended. I walk out the door and get my history things out.

Suddenly, I feel someone's hand tug at mine. I'm spun around and held close to someone's chest. I come to the realization that's it's Jacobs's.

"Baby, I'm sorry for whatever I did. I'll make it up to you," he says. He leans in to kiss me but I pull my face away. His hands drop by his sides.
"What's wrong? What did I do?" He asks.

"Jacob, just leave me alone. By the way, we're done. This whole on and off relationship we have is officially done. You can spend all your time with your new girlfriend Gabi that apparently you love so much," I spat at him. His eyes widen and he takes my hands into his.

"Look, I can explain, Sabrina," he says. I rip my hands away from his.

"No, there is nothing for you to explain. You don't love me anymore. You love Gabi, and I just have to accept that," I tell him.

"No, Sabrina. Please let me explain," Jacob says with tears brimming his eyes. I roll my eyes.

"I have to go to History. Sorry, Jacob," I say. I walk to my class. Just before I get to the door, Jacob grabs my hand and pulls me back.

"What are you doing!" I shout. He slams my back against the lockers and pins my shoulders so I can't move.

"Let me explain!" He demands.

"Why? Are you gonna hit me like you always do when you don't get your way?" I say, mimicking his voice. The grasp on my shoulders becomes looser.

"You know I'd never do that again," he says softly. I grunt.

"What is it?" I ask.

"Okay. Gabi told me I had to be her girlfriend and I refused and she said she would make your life miserable if I didn't, and I didn't want you getting hurt. I kiss back because she said she will beat you if I don't, and god damn it, Sabrina, I love you too much to let that happen," he tells me.

I stand there completely dumbfounded. My hand grip his wrists and I lean in for a kiss. He kisses back softly and he pulls me, resting his forehead on mine.

"Let's ditch," he suggests. I nod in agreement.

And that's what we did. We go home and watch Netflix all day, rested up against each other.
