Unexpected surprise

Chapter 5

"Hey Miss Campbell."
"Why good morning Brooklyn how's your arm?"
"It's fine is Jackson home?"
"Yes he's sleeping." Miss Campbell said suspiciously.
"Can I go talk to him?"
"Go ahead." She said un sure. Brooklyn headed up stairs into his room.
"Jackson." She whispered. No reply. She saw the full glass of water next to his night stand and proceeded to pick it up. She walked over to the side of the bed and on the count of three in her head she dumped the water on to his face.  His eyes shot open. "What the heck! You know you could've just called my name!"
"I did. I whispered your name." Jackson shot up from his bed, and tackled Brooklyn to the ground.
"Stoooop." Brooklyn said.
"No I'm soaking wet because of you." They starred into each other eyes which felt like an eternity. And all of sudden...buzz buzz buzz.
"That's my phone will you please hand it to me?"asked Brooklyn.
"Fine." Still on top of her he reached for her phone and handed it to her.
"Oh it's from Caleb!"
Hey Brooke so in a couple of weeks is prom and I would take you but you're at home chillin. So I'm taking Suzzie. And if we're a thing it would be awkard on prom night. So we're done have a good life.
"What was it?"
"Nothing. Now just get off me." Brooklyn said almost tearing up. Jackson got off and gave her his hand to help her up. "Let me read it." Brooklyn handed his phone to him. Jackson read it. "That f-"
"It didn't matter Jackson it's fine."
"No it's not who breaks up with someone over text?"
"Well obviously Caleb!"
"Let me text him back."
"No don't I'll do it later!"
Jackson took her phone and started texting rapidly.  Before Brooklyn could react, he handed her back the phone.  She read it to herself. 
BROOKLYN IS AN AMAZING GIRL, AND IF YOU CAN'T SEE THAT THEN YOU DON'T DESERVE HER.  FUCK YOU!!!  I HOPE YOU KNOW YOU THREW AWAY ANY CHANCE AT A "GOOD LIFE."
Brooklyn began to tear up.  Jackson immediately felt bad, thinking he had made things worst.  Before he could apologize, she threw her arms around him.  As she cried into his shoulder, he awkwardly pat her back.
"You done crying." He asked uncomfortably.
Brooklyn began to sob harder.
"There there." He said as he patted her back.
"But why?" The crying got louder and louder.
"He doesn't deserve you."
"But why?"
"He's an idiot."
She sniffled, "do you have ice-cream?"
"Stop crying and I'll give you some."
"Can we watch the noteebook?"
"No!"
"Can you give me icecream then?"
"Alright I'll go get some." Jackson brought the ice cream. They were both sitting in the middle of the floor. Brooklyn rested her head on his shoulder while she ate her ice cream. When she was done eating she got up to put her bowl away in the sink downstairs. As she was on her way returning she over heard miss Campbell talking on the phone.
"No I love you more babe...... Yes of course..... I just wish Jackson was more accepting...... No of course not.... He has a lot on his mind since he got expelled.....yeah....maybe you can come for dinner one day....no he won't react like last time...I don't know.....he just needs to accept the fact that since he's father has left us I've moved on. Hey hold on one second." She put the phone against her chest. "Brooklyn I thought you two were upstairs?"
"Yes I just came down to put my bowl away."
"Oh how long have you been here?"
"I just put my bowl away I was just going up stairs."
"Were you ease dropping?"
"No of course not."
"Mhm alright."
With that Brooklyn ran up the stairs into Jacksons room.
"What took you so long? Here come sit I pulled out the yearbook so we can narrow down some people."
"Jackson I heard your mom talking on the phone."
"Okayyyy."
"I think she's dating someone." Brooklyn said really fast.
"Yeah it's this stupid guy."
"How long-"
"A couple of months."
"Why don't-"
"I don't want to see her hurt again. Doesn't really matter what I think. In a couple of months he's gonna be my new dad yay." He said supper monotone.
"I'm sorry."
Jackson got up and pulled out a cigarette box from his dresser under neath all of his clothes.
"You smoke!"
"Not always."
"How long have you-"
"Just a couple of months there's been a lot on my mind. Don't worry I'm not addicted or anything." He lit the cigarette with his lighter and began to smoke.
"You're killing your lungs and those toxic chemicals are really bad for you."
"I'll stop soon when everything just goes back to normal."
"A cigarette isn't gonna help you get everything off your mind what is gonna help is talking to someone about it," she pulled the cigarette out of his mouth," tell me what's wrong."
"Stopppp."
"This is just making it worse for you."
"Stop."
"Everything's gonna get better I promise."
"Easy for you to say."
"What do you mean?"
"You're perfect."
"What?"
"Nevermind. Let's just get back to solving this."
"Alright."

"I don't think we're gonna figure out who did this just by starring at a yearbook." Said Brooklyn.
"You're right."
"I think our best option would be going back to school."
"We're expelled."
"I have a plan."
"What is it?"
"Just meet me in my bedroom tomorrow morning at 5 am."
