There's only going to be one more chapter for Megan after this and then just two more for Lolita and Kristie after this chapter!! Thanks for reading guys love you!

Megan's POV

"Kristie, I don't know what to do...". As soon as I got home I called Kristie. I tried calling Lolita too, but there was no answer...I figured shes probably busy.

"Well the most important thing is have yuk made your decision yet?". I have actually...

"Yeah I did...." I hesitated, knowing that as soon as that name slipped out it'll really be official and then I'd have to tell someone very important.

"Kristie, it's Jake. I really like Jake and now he hates me and I've ruined everything.". The squeal on the other end was painful.

"Don't worry. I'll get him to talk to you!". We said good bye and hung up the phone. Just as I was about to try to concentrate on my finals I heard a knock on my door.

"What is it mom?" I asked.

"It's not your mom it's Jake." My stomach turned at the thought of what he was going to say to me.

"Come in.". I said as I jumped off my bed and checked on my hair. I looked like a lunatic.

"Listen, if Herbie really is the one for you that's great I'm happy for you. I just thought...". I put my finger on his lips to shut him up and then I kissed him. In that one second I knew that I had way more feelings for Jake. Thankfully, he didn't stop he just pulled me closer into him. After a couple of more minutes of heaven we broke apart to get some air.

"But...I saw you two at the park today.". I closed my eyes willing myself not to cry.

"Jake, Herbie kissed me. And as soon as he did I knew from the start that you were the one. I just figured you ever wanted to talk to me again."

"For a straight A student you can be pretty ditsy." He smirked at me and pulled me closer to my bed. I sat on his lap sighing. My situation wasn't completely over yet though. I still needed to tell Herbie. I gulped and Jake looked at me with a questioning eyes.

"I just remembered that I have to tell Herbie.". He nodded at me and pulled me closer Kissing my nose.

"Want me to go with you?"

"Yes I do, it'll make me feel a little better."

"We'll go first thing tomorrow morning okay?". I mumbled yes and felt my eye lids getting heavy. My mom knocked on our door and told Jake that it was getting late and that she'll take him home. I glanced at the clock and was surprised. It's almost eleven. My step mom never let's me have someone over this late even though it's not a school night. She must really like him. I closed my eyes and let sleep over take me.

...........................................................

I jumped up awake feeling confused as to why I got up at nine in the morning on a Saturday. I checked my phone and realized I had set my alarm. Oh yeah...I almost forgot that I had to tell Herbie today. I texted Jake and told him that I was going to go back to sleep for a couple of more hours.

After I texted Jake, letting him know that I woke up, I heard my phone go off again. I ignored it and fell back asleep. It only felt like two minutes but when I had to get up to pee, I looked at the clock and it said it was almost eleven fifteen. I picked up my phone and was about to call Jake when I noticed that I had a voicemail from Kristie.

"We need to make a plan to go to Seattle and see Lolita in the summer. Get away from all this drama, Jake can come too if he wants. Call or text me back what you think." I felt excitement in my stomach that this could actually happen. I missed her sooooo much and being able leave New Jersey for a whole Summer would be awesome!

I remember hearing my phone go off when I listened to the voicemail and sure enough when I checked it I had a message from Jake.

"Pick you up in fifteen?". I replied "yes" and put my phone to the side while I debated on what the outfit should be for the day. It looks like it's really warm out so I decided on wearing a pretty light blue blouse with my short jeans. I don't own one pair of short shorts though, they just aren't my thing. I walked downstairs said good morning to my dad and step mom and grabbed some cereal from our pantry. I sat down at the kitchen table and began Munching on my captain crunch. After that, I went back upstairs to brush my teeth and hair and literally after I finished getting ready I heard a horn outside..

"Hang on dad I got it!". I yelled after I tried to gently throw my cereal bowl into the sink. I opened the door and smiled brightly at him.

"Let's get this over with.". We didn't even bother using Jake's car because Herbie lives right in our neighborhood.

"Do you know what your going to say to him?". Jake asked.

"I'm going to be very blunt and just tell him the truth.". I shrugged my shoulders and realized that it probably won't be as easy as it sounded. Jake must have sensed this though because he held my hand and squeezed it tighter.

"Whatever happens we'll get through this.". I smiled and squeezed his hand back. It seemed way too soon when we reached Jakes house. I held my breath and knocked on his door. Unfortunately he answered after the second knock.

"What's he doing here?". Herbie narrowed his eyes at Jake and right away I felt my face go pale.

"Can I talk to you Herbie?".

"Only if John gives us some privacy."

"It's Jake."

"Yeah whatever. Spit it out Megan what is it that you need to tell me?"

"Okay look, I've made my decision.". Herbie gave me this cocky smile which made me more happier with the decision I made.

"I like Jake.". I waited for his reaction but this was not what I expected. He ran over to where Jake was and tackled him to the ground. He kicked him in the groin a couple of times and I threw myself in between them. Not a smart move because I felt blood dripping down my nose.

"What the fuck did you do to her man?". Jake asked getting up as fast as he could. He was in worse shape then I was yet he was worried about me. I looked at Herbie knowing that he broke my nose...

"Megan...Im so sorry!". I have never felt such range before. I walked as close as I could to him and then I kicked him in the balls.

"Stay the fuck away from me."
