Jen's POV
I wake to see my bed was empty, jack was no where to be seen. I get up and walk into my kitchen. I see a note and pick it up, it read
Good morning Jen
Sorry I had to leave, Finn needed me to help him with stuff around the house. I hope you have a great day
See you soon
Jack
Xx
He just left, ok then
I sigh and take a shower. I get dressed into a skater skirt and a white blouse. I put on some white high topped converse. I apply small make up. I grab my bag and start walking to work.
When I arrive Cathy is sitting there listening to music. I sit next to her and rub my temples
" rough night?" She wiggles her eyebrows
" no I'm just tired ok, anyways where did you go last night?" I ask
" home" she shrugs
" right yeah ok" I nod
" I saw you and jack last night.... Kissing " she winks. Oh my god I completely forgot
" heat of the moment "
" yeah right ok" she nods. I just roll my eyes
Jack comes sauntering in
" hello ladies" he salutes
" hi" I say
" Jen can I talk to you for a second ?" He asks
" yeah sure" I stand up and look at Cathy, she wiggles her eyebrows. God seriously. I follow jack into a corridor
" I got a girlfriend" he says smiling. Oh.
" cool" I say blankly
" she's great" he says and starts to ramble on about her. With each word my heart brakes a little more
" cool" I say trying to keep my voice from cracking. " excuse me" I say and rush to the bathroom.
I sit in one of the stalls and ball my eyes out. That kiss yesterday obviously didn't mean anything. I can't believe I thought I actually had a chance with him. After all these years I thought he could possibly have feelings for me. How wrong I was. I'm so stupid. No one will ever like me . I'm ugly and fat. It's obvious why he doesn't like me.
Suddenly the doors burst open.
" Jen?? Jen where are you?" Cathy says
" go Away, I'm fine" I croak. I see Cathy's feet under my stall. I feel her lean of the door.
" come on, you can tell me anything I'm here for you, open up" she says reassuringly. I push open the door and let Cathy in.
" oh Jen come here" she says. I run into her arms and cry. She comforts me and tells me it's alright
" do you want to talk about it.?" I nod
" it's jack, he got a girlfriend. I'm so stupid Cathy. I can't believe I actually thought I had a chance with him. I thought after all these years he might possibly have feelings for me. It's obvious no one will like me, I'm ugly and fat." I cry
" Jen look at me, jack doesn't know what he is missing. He's just a stupid guy who can't see how amazing you are. And don't you dare call yourself ugly or fat. You're one of the prettiest girls I know. In fact you're the prettiest. If you call yourself that again I will slap you" Cathy says sternly
" thank you Cathy" I say whilst giving her a hug.
" no problem, you know what you're staying at mine tonight, movies and ice cream how does that sound?"
" great, thank you" I smile
-------------
" guys are stupid" I say as I finish my 3 rd tub of ice cream
" yeah I know hunny" Cathy replies
" they get all the sluts and they don't think about the nice girls you know" I ramble
" oh and they think dumping a girl will be fine but it's not that girl will have a broken heart for ages. Jack always broke up with these girls and he thought it was fine but noooo those girls spent ages with me crying their hearts out. " I start to tear up.
" Jen no " Cathy says
" jaaackkkkk" I cry. I start balling my eyes out.
" shhhh Jen it's alright he's a prick and an idiot. You need to move on" Cathy says whilst rubbing my back
" I can't. I reluctantly let him back in my life for a better start. But it's just turned out to be a disaster. You don't know how long I've had a crush on him, I actually thought I loved him. He always just comes and ruins my life! Ughhhh" I scream into a pillow
" Jen seriously you need to move on, how bout Niall ? You've gotten close to him. I can tell he likes you. He always flirts with you."
" you think ?" I sniff.
" I know" Cathy smiles. I smile
" there it is, that beautiful smile"
" thank you Cathy , I'm tired I'm going to go to sleep" I smile
" no problem sweetie, goodnight"
And with that I fall into deep sleep
