Chapter Seven

            Jake’s POV continued...

            Breathe, Jake. Just breathe. I did what my mind said and inhaled a big gulp of air to try and calm myself down. Unfortunately, I breathed in the horrible smelling airport air and choked.

            “Are you okay, Jake?” Mrs. Nelson asked worriedly.

            I coughed again, and tried to breathe normally again. “I’m fine, just choked on some air.” I reassured her, but it didn’t sound so convincing since I was still spitting into the air.

            A couple of little kids went by, and laughed at my expression. I rolled my eyes at them and turned my attention to the door in which Farah would be walking through in a couple of minutes.

            The conversations that we had on the phone were just plain awkward. All she talked about was Flynn. It was always ‘Flynn this’ or ‘Flynn that’, I could never get her to shut up about him.

           Flynn, I thought angrily. How dare he show up in my life again, after what he did? And most of all, how dare he take away Farah?

            I was determined to make it up to Farah, because I weren’t exactly a good friend over the phone. Although you couldn’t really blame me, I’d been jealous as hell when she told me that she spent all day shopping with Flynn. And how much fun she had. So I sort of threw my phone against the wall and ignored her for days.

            But I got a new one now, and I was ready to do whatever Farah says to be best friends again.

           Even though I was in crutches, and even if beads of sweat was making its way down my neck.

            Gosh, stop being so nervous Jake! I had never felt this way before. I was used to being cool and collected, even if my heart sped up whenever I saw Farah. She never knew what she could do to me, thanks to my acting skills.

            But I wasn’t sure how I should feel now, considering the fact that we’d admitted our feelings towards each other. Even though it was at the worst time possible, we both meant it. Well, at least I meant it.

            “You sure you’re okay?” Mrs. Nelson asked uncertainly after a few minutes.

            I looked at myself. I could practically feel the sweat on my back and my brows were furrowed in concentration. Gosh, I sure look awful. I thought disapprovingly. “Actually, I think I’m gonna go to the restroom for a second. I’m not feeling very well.” I replied honestly after looking over myself in disgust again.

            She nodded knowingly and gave me a sad smile, like she knew what it was going on.

            With that, I walked over to the direction of the restrooms. Or in my case, I hobbled my way there.
