Zack
"Mom, You've met her before and you loved her, don't worry." I tell my mom as she's on the phone with me while Kim is in the shower.
"Is she the one I'm thinking of, that was really close with Jack?"
"I think so, mom." I start doubting, does she like Jack and is just settling for me? That'd be terrible.
"Well, I like her, I'll admit, but she's too close to Jack for my comfort."
"Well, I've got to go mom, I love you. You can come meet her for dinner one night."

I had my doubts, and I knew that they weren't true, that she loves me, but I couldn't get the thought of them being so close out of my head. It feels like it did when I saw her with Matty from The 1975.
We were on our way to Rians to greet Cass, and Kimberly was reading, we were going to take two cars, but we didn't, we just took hers so people could see her 'new baby.'
I didn't have a good feeling about tonight.
Kimberly
"Cass!" I coo, running into my best friends car, after sliding my book in my little bag. She wrapped her arms around me and I lifted her up. "I missed you."
"It's been less than two months." One of the guys say. "You didn't see her for over a year." I saw it was Alex who said it and I pouted.
"Maybe, but now I'll get to see her more, and it's exciting."
Jack was sitting by the fire, looking angry, I didn't want him to snap at me, but I wanted to know what was up.
I sat beside him, and leaned on his shoulder, "What's up?" I asked.
"Nothing." He frowns. "I'll tell you later, now isn't the time."
"Okay." I sigh and I can feel someone glaring at us.
Now that we've all sat down, Zack is on the other side of me, Jack on the otherside, Lisa sitting by an energetic Alex, and Cass sitting in Rians lap, I then start to feel bad for Jack, because he doesn't have a girlfriend.
"Listen," Lisa says, "Alex wants to tell us all good news."
"We're having a baby boy!" Alex hoops, making us cheer.
Zack wraps his arm around me, and kisses the top of my head, I sigh contently, and then Jack asks me to come with him, so I do.
"Don't be pissed." Jack immediately says.
"That makes me want to be calmer. What's up?"
"A fan posted this today, and tagged us all in it, but Zack removed his tags," Jack started explaining. I look at him skeptically, and he passes me the phone.
"That was when we were in Vegas?" I ask."No, that was when he went back to Vegas while you were trapped."
"He, he said he was with you guys? Worrying about me too?" I whimper. He knew I liked him then, Alex told him. He said he liked me back.
I hand the phone back to Jack and he leans in, hugging me, I turn my face away where no one can see my face and I silently cry into Jack.
"There there," Jack tries to soothe. "It'll be okay."
I wasn't hurt at the fact he did it, well, no, I was, but not as bad as it was hurting that he lied, did he really love me? Am I just a game to him?
"Don't let this get to you, but I figured you should know about it."
