Him again

Leaving Early (CH.23)

Kaci's P.O.V.

Matt took over to where everyone was dancing to the song 'Last Friday Night' by Katy Perry. I like Katy Perry. Apparently, Matt does too. He started dancing and moving my arms along with him. Kind of like my grandpa used to do whenever a good song comes on. After a while, i started dancing along with him until someone pulled us apart and punched Matt right in the nose. Seriously, who is this guy? "Hey!" I yelled at him, making him turn around and foucs on me. But when he did that i noiced he was drunk. One of the football players. He actually looked like someone i knew... but who. "What are you doing dancing with this loser?" he asked while rubbing his fists as if they hurt, but hey...he deserved it. "Why did you just do that?" I spat at him. "Because i saw him punch you, he deserved it for hurting you first!" he yelled over the music which seemed to be getting louder and louder the more we talked. I was starting to get really annoying. I looked down at Matt because i saw him moving, he was holding his nose. Yet, probably to dizzy to stand up.... I mean he did get hit pretty hard. I looked back at this guy and said "Why do you even care?!" I yelled, raising an eyebrow. I mean seriously why does he care? I barely even know him. Heck, I cant even remember who he is! "Well, i sorta...kind of...well..." he mumbled, but mummbled it loud enough for me to hear. (the music was dying down because the song was ending) "What!?" i said to him. I really want to know. "I like you! Okay! I like you! I have liked you ever since the 3rd grade!" My eyes opened wide. I remember him now! I met him in 3rd grade, his name is Jake Sawyer! Or by his nickname 'showoff-J' (sure its not that good of a name but come on it was 3rd grade what do you expect?) That was his nickname because everytime he was around girls he would always try to show off. To be honest, I used to have a crush on him. I never undeerstood why though. I looked around because it went really quiet. Everyone was looking at us now and I just wanted to leave. Where is Alice. I searched for her in the crowds but i didnt see her anywhere. I was getting worried. I ran to my car but it wasnt there anymore. Did Alice leave without me? You have got to be kidding me! Then a hand went onto my sholder. "Do you need a ride home?" he asked me. I didnt want to but how else was i supposed to get home. I mean not a lot of people were aloud to come because its a school night! "Thanks..." i said looking at him and then at my feet. He pointed to his car and we got in and drove away.
