Marks POV
I couldn't say a word. I mean what was I supposed to say. I couldn't hold Jack close like I wish I could. So I froze up. Jack hung up and I began to panic. I kept calling him back but he kept declining. I began to text him and he didn't answer. I began to freak out and worry.
Mark: Jack please answer me.
Mark: Jack?
Mark: I love you
Jack: Forever and always right.
Mark: Yes...
I was so relived he answered. Before answering again I had to catch my breath.
Jack: Mark I miss you
Mark: I miss you too love
Jack didn't say anything after that. I fell asleep after a while. When I woke up it was still dark outside. I checked the time and it was 4. I groaned and tried to go back to sleep but failed. I called Jack at about 6 to see if he was awake. He answered almost immediately.
Mark: ~hey baby~
I smiled the moment I saw his major bed head. Jack smiled back at me.
Jack:~hey love~
Mark: ~let me guess you couldn't sleep either?~
Jack:~nope I slept for a while though~
Mark:~same~
I saw Jack shoved a spoon in his mouth.
Mark:~are you eating ice cream?~
Jack~......yes.....~
Mark:~ at six in the morning? *laughs*~
Jack:~don't judge me!~
Jack and I talked for hours till the sun finally came up and I had to get ready to go hangout with people from school for a project. Normally I did my projects with Jack but since he was so far away I couldn't. For my group the teacher paired me with the geeks of the class so I felt pretty stupid everytime they corrected me or spoke nerd. I sighed and checked my phone for the time. I smiled when I saw my screen saver. It was a picture of Jack when he hacked me at a birthday party for Felix. I went to my camera roll to see all of the old pictures and videos Jack had taken when he took my phone. Some he took of me and him some of him and some of me sleeping with him photo bombing. He was plain adorable. I continued and smile until I was snapped back into reality. "Are you gonna help or not?!" Luke, one of the angry nerds asked. "Yeah sorry I got distracted." We finished our project and they finally left. I ran upstairs to my room and plugged in my phone so I could talk to Jack again.
It rang for quite a long time until he answered.
Jack:~hey love!~
Jack had sunglasses on and was obviously outside.
Mark:~hey. Where are you?~
Jack:~I'm walking around town I got bored at the house~
Mark:~you like it there?~
Jack:~no~
Mark:~whys that?~
Jack:~cause your not here...~
Mark:~I know I miss you~
Jack:~can we really make this work?~
Mark:~make what work?~
Jack:~long distance~
Mark:~yeah of course we can! Forever and always right?~
Jack smiled.
Jack:~yeah.~
Jacks POV
I hung up on Mark short after so I could drive to the house. When I got there I slowly made my way upstairs and faceplanted down on the bed. I groaned and turned over to where I was facing the ceiling. I missed Mark unconditionally. I was so bored and lonely without him. I started school at my new school tomorrow. I was gonna be a loser again just like I was back at home. My stomach twisted in a knot at the thought of being alone again. Ever since Mark I couldn't stand the thought of being alone. Guess I was gonna have to get used to it. I sighed and crawled to the top of the bed. I laid down staring out the window. My eyes began to feel heavy and I fell asleep.
I woke up and saw that it was dark outside. Not again! I checked the time and it was 5:30am. I decided I'd get ready for school. I couldn't eat that morning from how nervous I was. It felt as if I expected my mom to wake up and hurt me with my dad by her side supporting her to torture me more. I felt sick and quickly got in the car before I changed my mind about going. I pulled into the school parking lot and sat there for a while. I ran through my thoughts until I heard a knock on my window. Outside stood a pale black haired boy. He was pretty tall and he stared at me with a confused look. "You okay?" He asked. I opened the car door and got out. "I'm fine..." I stared at the ground refusing to make eye contact. The boy stuck his hand out in front of me and said,"I'm Phil and you are?" I refused to shake his hand but answered. "I'm Jack." "Hi Jack!" He was awfully cheery. A boy with brown hair and slightly darker then Phil came over. "Phil what are you doing?" "I'm meeting people." Phil smiled as if he were proud to meet me.
The brown haired boy turned towards me. "I'm Dan who are you?" "I'm Jack..." Dan studied me and turned and began to walk towards the school Phil following behind. I sighed and slowly walked into the new school. I went to the office and signed it. I told them I wouldn't need help being shown around. I refused to get help unless it was from Mark. I went to each class on time and no one ever acknowledged me. I sat alone at lunch and walked to my car alone. Just like last time I was a loser. I texted Mark hoping it would make me feel better.
Jack: you busy?
Mark: just got outta school you good?
Jack: yeah I miss you tho..
Mark: yeah I miss you too
Jack: I love you
Mark: I love you too
I smiled and finally felt a little bit of happiness.
