Putting up jets ski was hard work, even for John, and hes really strong.
“So how was last night” I asked him.
He did his famous grin, “Man it was awesome.”
I laughed, and continued cranking the trailer.
“What about you, how was Jane?” he asked me.
“Good, no not good it was great, it was the best” I said in awe remembering last night.
“Did you tell her the truth?” he asked.
I looked up, “Yeah, I had to i felt guilty for lying to her, I really like her John.”
He nodded, “Is it weird that im kind of in love with Alex already? Its only been like 3 days” He asked nervously.
I shook my head, “No! I know exactly how you feel, I started to fall in love with Jane the first day I met her.” I said.
“Dude this is weird.” John said.
I nodded agreeing. “Remember how we made a pact that we we would never fall in love when we were in highschool because it was stupid?” I asked.
He nodded, thinking back to freshman year.
“Looks like we have.” I said.
We continued working on the jet skis, only 2 more to go. After about 15 minutes of working in mostly silence John stopped and walked over to me at sat down on a log.
“Look Jake, im sorry about the whole lunch thing with Jane, i knew you and her had a thing but I didnt want you to haver her.” He said.
“Its ok” i said.
“No really, i knew you got really pissed. And I feel bad for pressuring Jane to come with us and taking her away from you, i shouldn't of done that, you are my best friend and you had her first.”
“Yeah, but really its cool. But i was pissed that she confided to you about her job before me.”
“Really? Oh yeah, she told me not to tell you about it because she didnt want you to like her for that reason only.” he said.
“I dont know why she would think that, I love her either way.” I said.
“You know Im glad you and Jane had a thing, because if you didnt I would of went for Jane and missed out on Alex” he said smiling.
I nodded, “Im glad you did too.”
He shook his head, “That would of been weird. What if I had Jane, and you had Alex?
” I thought about that, Alex was hot, but typical short and slim, dark blonde haired florida girl, but Jane, she was Jane.
“I think i’d still love Jane” I said.
John got up and looked at me, “you wouldnt like alex?” he said coldly.
I shot up and shook my head, “no dude its not like that” I said.
John clenched his fists, “What is it Jake? Dont think shes gorgeous?”
I shook my head putting my hands up, “John its not like that Alex is beautiful” I said trying to calm him down.
“Oh then what is it? Oh yeah shes not good enough just like every other girl at our school isnt good enough for you Jake.” He said angrily.
“No they are I just didnt like them like that. Alex isnt for me and you know that. Shes for you, you two fit together!” I said. John unclenched his fists.
“Look im sorry man I didnt mean to upset you, i didnt mean it like that” I said.
He nodded, “I know, Im sorry I freaked its just i feel very protective over her. I dont know why.” He said, then sat down on a log.
“Me to, i would of reacted the exact way if you had said that about Jane.” I said sitting down next to him.
John looked at me, “Its been three days for me and alex, 2 weeks for you and Jane.” He said, I nodded.
“How are we already so whipped and love struck?” He asked.
I shook my head, i had no clue “Well ive been with Jane everyday since she moved here, and You and Alex havent left each other side in 3 days. We’ve gotten to know them pretty good.”
He nodded in agreement.
“I think were in love.” I said.
He nodded, “I love Alex.”
“ And I love Jane.”
