I'm Waking Up

Abby

She had had it with Jake, he had gone too far this time. She understood that he felt like it was his duty to protect or some shit but it was really pissing her off now. This was the third guy that Jake had threatened this month. It was getting ridiculous.
Abby and Rick were supposed to hang out after school, Rick was struggling with Biology and Abby agreed to help him out. Of course it helped his case that he was extremely good looking. She wasn't even going to dress up, it was a casual thing. Well it WAS going to be until Jake stuck his huge nose in.
After her last class she caught up with Rick ,"Hey, you ready to go?" He shifted slightly, eyes on his shoes. "Um, Abby, I don't think it's a good idea." She frowned," You seemed pretty enthusiastic about it yesterday",
"Yeah well that's before your crazy boyfriend cornered me", the frown on Abby's face remained as she tried to make sense of what Rick had just said," I don't ha-", Jake. She was going to kill him. She stormed away, leaving a puzzled Rick in her wake.
How dare Jake, who the hell did he think he was? He certainly wasn't her boyfriend, perish the thought. They were friends, bestfriends. She had never thought about him like that, and never would.
She pushed open the door of the common room and saw him and Marcus straight away. "JAKE GRIFFIN", she liked to be straightforward. "Yes princess?" That was it, that was the last straw, she puffed herself up to smack him across the face but noticed that everyone was watching them. Well, she did make a bit of a scene. She saw the amused look on Marcus' face which helped calm her down. He always calmed her down. She took a deep breath and asked him to step outside for a moment. She couldn't wait to give him an earful.
