When Her Whole Life Changed Forever

A month after

My mother had passed away last month after her car crash, leaving me alone with nobody but Sheldyn. However, ironically Jake and Jay had started to have problems created a big fuss for all of us! Jake was all in love with Jay, but Jay was so goddamned confused she couldn't even see straight! I'd tried to help many, many times but nothing I could possibly think to do would help.

" fuck off! " everyone could hear Jay yell as Jake stormed out of the room.

Jake was in the most foul mood, I'd tried to check on him and he almost hit me, so instead I went to check on Jay who was crying her eyes out.

" what's wrong? " I asked in a small friendly voice.

" he, he won't stop. Everything is just going wrong! " she sobbed.

" I'm so sorry, but I'm here if you need me " I said calmly as I pulled her into a hug and let her cry on my shoulder.

The very people I loved and swore I'd always protect were falling apart in front of me, and I could do nothing to stop it. Sheldyn hasn't been to school for a few days, maybe I should text him.

" hey! " 

" hey princess, you alright? " 

" yeah. Sheldyn where are you?? " 

" .... I'm at your house, I was resting. I had a bad day. "

" schools almost over I'll be there soon, I love you "

" I love you too princess, I'm sorry "

A few hours later school was let out and I was rushing to get to my car. I was actually in such a rush I didn't see Jake standing beside my car crying, he seemed to be waiting for me. I really didn't want to stop I didn't have time to chat I really needed to get to Sheldyn. So I spoke up as I hurried beside him. 

"'Hey jake look I've really got to g- "

I started my sentence but he trapped me in a hug, crying horribly into my shoulder. My arms went up to comfort him in an instant response.

" what's wrong? " I asked, concern in my voice.

" sh-she doesn't want m-me anymore " he stuttered, sobs racking his entire body.

I didn't know what to say. Honestly, I was surprised he came to me and not to jay. Jay would be furious if she knew but then again nobody really knows what's going on between them right now. All I know is that I don't want to get in the middle of it, sure I want to be there for both of them but I'm not going to chose sides again.

" I'm sorry, really I am. I just don't know how to help, I can't do much for you but comfort you and I need to get home for Sheldyn " I said to him softly.

" don't leave.. Please just stay a little longer " he cried, tightening his grip on me.

It hit me right in the feels, because I did date him and I loved him so much, and although we've been broken up for a while he's still my friend and it hurts to see him like this. I quietly pat his head, and rubbed his back as he cried.

" okay... It's gonna be okay "

That was all I could whisper to him with out crying myself, I don't understand and probably won't ever understand why he came to me but I guess in the end it doesn't matter.
