Lucillia's POV

Jesse and I sat in drama next to each other and were holding hands. Blake was sitting on the other side of me and Britney on the other side of him.

For the past 2 weeks that Jesse and I have been dating Blake has seemed really down, really just not acting like himself.

I rubbed his leg and he looked at me sadly.

"Are you alright?" I asked him.

He nodded his head and I gave him an awkward one armed hug.

Jesse squeezed my hand tightly and I smiled at him. Jesse has been more happy since we have started going out but I could tell that he always wanted to tell me something but just never did.

"Okay can we please continue our Romeo and Juliet scene from last lesson. Jesse and Lucillia. Up on stage"

We walked upstairs and quickly had a look at the script and it was the scene where Romeo and Juliet kiss on the balcony.

We started acting it out and then finally came the kiss. I could tell that everyones eyes were on us but I didn't really care. I didn't have stage fright and I don't care f I kiss my boyfriend in front of a bunch of people.

Jesse placed his hands either side of my face and brought his lips to mine.

After a few seconds he pulled away and I stood there confused.

"Jesse more passionate. You need to show in that kiss that you love her. So bring it up a notch"

Jesse closed his eyes and took a deep breath before kissing me again.

But just like the last kiss it wasn't passionate. It was sort of just like a peck on the lips.

"No Jesse. That is the kind of kiss that you would give a girl if her dad was watching. I need passionate and loving, like you need her in your life and you never wanna let her go but if you can't show that to me then get off my stage"

Jesse looked down at the ground in embarrassment and hopped off the stage.

"Okay so we need a new Romeo. Lets see. How about Blake? You're a good looking boy. Come up here"

"I'm sorry but I can't be Blake's Juliet. I was fine with kissing my boyfriend but I can't kiss Blake" I said softly.

"This is acting sweetheart, if you can't handle it then you can get off my stage as well"

Just as I hopped off the stage and was heading towards Jesse, Blake stood in front of me and grabbed my shoulders.

"Why don't you want to kiss me?" He asked with a straight face.

"I'd rather kiss Tommy than kiss you" I said venomously.

Tommy is the grossest kid you will ever meet. He still bloody picks his nose and his mum breast fed him till he was about 9.

Hurt flashed through his eyes and then he just grabbed his bag and left.

"What happened to him?" Jesse asked me.

"It's nothing Jesse. Don't worry about it" I said with a fake smile on my face.

"Okay Luc" he said before kissing my cheek.

~~~~~~~

I sat at the lunch table with Jesse by my side and Blake sitting opposite me with all the cheerleaders and the jocks at the table as well.

"Hey babe, go get me some food will ya" Jesse said and gave me some money. All the guys except for Blake cracked up laughing.

I glared at him and picked the money up between my fingers. How dare he be so rude to me!

"Thanks sweet cheeks" he said before kissing me.

I stormed off to get his stupid food and someone grabbed my arm. A tear fell from my eye but I quickly wiped it away and pretended like I wasn't crying.

I turned around and fell into Blake's arms. He rubbed my back and I clung onto him tightly.

"He should be treating you like that Luc. I don't know what's up with him but he's acting like a jerk and just showing off in front of his friends. If that were me, I would be treating you like a princess. I wouldn't be changing myself just to impress my friends"

"Blake please stop" I pleaded. "No more flirting. You know I don't like you in that way"

"Why can't you see that I like you? I have never liked a girl the way that I like you Lucillia. It may be even lo-"

"Don't even say it Blake" I said cutting him off completely. I knew what he was going to say and I just can't do that. He doesn't love me. I know he doesn't. He's a player and he's just saying that to get into my pants.

I got out of his grasp and bought Jesse's lunch. I slammed it down on the table and went to storm out but he grabbed my waist and pulled me down and sat me down on his lap.

I sat there awkwardly and uncomfortably while he devoured into his burger. I rolled my eyes and locked eyes with Blake who was sitting in his original spot.

Britney kept on trying to get Blake's attention but he just shrugged her off. Was he really trying to change just for me? No. No way in hell. Blake was never going to change and especially not for me.

~~~~~~

"I'm sorry about what happened at lunch Lucillia. I really truly am. I just wanted the boys to like me more. Sometimes they think I'm gay just because I don't interact with girls as much"

"Jesse if you're just with me to impress your friends then I shouldn't be doing this" I said angrily.

"Baby please I'm really sorry. Please forgive me"

"Jesse you humiliated me in front of everyone. You made me seem like an idiot who would just do anything for you. I personally don't want to be treated like your slace"

"I promise it's never gonna happen again"

"It better not or I will break up with you Jesse. I'm sort of having second doubts about all of this"

"No Lucillia please don't do this. We're meant to be together. I love you"

My jaw dropped instantly in shock and I was staring at him intensely.

"I'm sorry Lucillia but it's the truth. I love you Lucillia. I couldn't keep in how I feel about you"

"I'm sorry Jesse. I don't love you. Well not yet anyways. We have only been going out for a few days now Jesse and I'm still getting over the fact that Levi cheated on me with my bestfriend"

~~~~~

Jesse came over to my house and we were casually just making out on the couch.

After everything that happened today I just wanted to relax and spend a little time with my boyfriend and just forget about everything.

I was sitting in his lap and my arms were around his neck.

"Lucillia" A voice said to me. I would never forget this voice even if I tried.

I pulled away from Jesse and looked up at him with a frown on my face.

"Levi" I said sadly.
