Jena's POV

So my day has been long. I take supper,bathe,change in my PJ's and jump on my bed. Feels so good to be in bed.
I'm just lying on my back staring at the ceiling when I receive a message.It's 10pm.
Nick:Hey Jena
Me:Yeah.
Nick:How was ur day?Mine was good.
Me:Tiring.
Nick:Wanna talk about it?
I tell him about my day and he tells me how he got hit by Jake during practice for staring at some random girl passing by.
He asks what my favorite colors are and I tell him dark and purple which represent mystery and royalty respectively.We go on and he even tells me how he choked on his food once because his mom randomly asked him what a blow job is. I laughed so hard.A while later, I got dizzy and we said our goodbyes.He is such a clown was the last thing I thought of before I slept off.

I wake up at midday the next day.I lazily walk to the kitchen for breakfast and I'm startled by Fred. Ugh what kind of brother does this anyway?
"Fred!" I glare at him. Fred is my brother and he's the first,20 years old and second year at college.
"Whose that guy you were talking with last night?Could hear your phone buzzing the whole night and you have such a bad laugh when your flattered" Fred says amused
"It's nobody Fred.Just an old friend." I say flatly. My stomach grumbles and I take that as my cue to head for the kitchen as I hear my intestines sing
"Where the milk at? Where the milk at?
I guess I'm just going to stay home the whole day.

******
I've heard little of Mia and her elder sister Sia in days. I go out for a walk and decide to check on Mia.
I'm listening to music and I really love Dangerously by Charlie Puth. Mia and I talk for a bit, Sia isn't even home.We walk back to my house so I could show Jena some cool sneakers I got recently.
End of POV

"When are you gonna tell her? "asked Sia
"When she's ready.She's not over Albert yet and I don't think I should walk up to her and say;Hey Jen.Sia and I are together so soon"
"Fred I understand but if she realizes we hiding it from her she'll be so hurt"replied Sia
"I'll tell her babe I promise"
"Where's she by the way?"asked Sia
"Probably a walk maybe with some guy I heard talk with last night.She's getting over that jerk"
They forget about Jenn and watch Netflix.An hour later Jena walks in with Mia. Sia and Fred are sprawled out know the couch kissing.Jena is so upset.
"When were y'all gonna tell me? "she says hurt and defiant
"Jen... When you were gonna be ready I didn't want... "
She turns to Mia "You knew about this?"
"Yes but I didn't want to be the one to... "she stammers
"Save your breath"Jena yells and leaves furious.
She doesn't know where she's headed but she just wants to go far away from this bunch of liars. Why didn't they tell her?
After walking a few blocks,Jena scented a familiar perfume. She turned around and saw Albert with an unclear expression probably sympathy thinking her mood is because of the breakup.He started moving towards her and she hurried away. Still, he followed her. What did he want anyway?He caught up with her and before he could say anything,Nick was in sight.He held Jena's hand,pecked her and asked if she was OK
"Hey Nick. I'm OK. "she said breathless from moving way too fast.
Nick smiled,turned to Albert and asked "Hey man, any problem?"
"No.Just wanted to say hi"
"Guess you already did"
