Serena's POV

Jacob makes his way to my desk. My heart starts beating, blood rushing to my head...he has this crazy effect on me and it just makes me so angry. But I know that I have to  be civil with him in this project or else our grade will suffer. I have to be the bigger person. Let it go Serena.

"Hey you" He says

"Hey...so I guess we better start working on your spoken word?" I reply

"Oh sure I'll just get our topic from Ms. Peters" He responds

Maybe this will work out after all...maybe we can learn to be friends. 

He makes his way back to my desk and says "Um.....our topic is..." He pauses

"Yes, what it is Jacob?" I ask

"It's about love, Serena" He says

My heart drops. Love? Seriously. Kind of still a sensitive topic for our situation right now. 

"Um do you think we can switch it with someone else?" I ask

"I'll try" He says with a sad tone

"Uhm Jacob nevermind let's just work with what we have" I say

"Oh okay anything you want Serena" He says with a smile

The same smile that broke my walls down. The smile that sunk a thousand ships. But don't worry, I promise I wont fall for you again, Jacob. I hope...

"So do you have any Idea's for the spoken word?" I ask

"I don't really know what a spoken word is....is that embarrassing?" He says

"Do you listen in class.....like at all?" I say with a laugh

"Uhm this is actually supposedly my bedtime...so, yeah?" He says with a cheeky smile

"Oh okay...so let me explain what it is....so *continues talking*

Jacob's POV

I know I should be listening to her explanation but I'm just looking at her. Observing her facial movements and I am in awe of how perfect she is. She has these beautiful green eyes that I've talked about more than once and she has these long eyelashes that could go on for days. She has these lips...oh god these lips. Kylie Jenner has nothing on her. 

And when she smiles, oh god damn when she smiles, my whole world is at peace. She just has that effect on me and I love it. Where am I going to find someone like this? And don't let me get started on her body because I'll just start to drool all over the place. 

"Jacob....Jacob?? Jacob are you day dreaming?" She says while shoving me

"Oh shit, sorry uhm where were we?" I say

"Unbelievable. You are so rude, you didn't listen to anything I said!" She replies with an angry tone

"Babe I'm sorry can you please repeat" I say

"What did you just call me?" She asks

"Oh I said HEY I'm sorry can you please repeat?" I say

"Oh okay thought you said something else...."She says

PHEW close call.

"So anyway, as I was saying,  spoken Word is intended for onstage performance, rather than exclusively designed for the page. While often associated with culture, it also has strong to storytelling, modern poetry, post-modern performance, and monologue theatre. According to the Urban Dictionary" 

"Huh" I say confused

"In layman's terms, It's basically reading a poem out loud" she says

"Who is layman?" I ask

"You know what let's just begin writing the poem" she says with a laugh

Did I say something funny? 

NO POV

Serena and Jacob begin writing their poem about Love. They decided that it shouldn't be romantic but rather, a tragic love story that should really voice out a message rather than be cute and annoying like everyone else's. They worked hard over the course of the English Lit class and surprisingly had a good time. However, Serena still couldn't mend her broken heart even if she wanted to. And no matter how sweet Jacob was, he couldn't get the girl of his dreams to look at him fully in the eye without bursting in to tears. 

They tried their best to keep their emotions at bay and focus on the project but it was no secret that these two still had feelings for each other. A match made in heaven, that just had to become tragic. But you know what they say, you cannot know love if you haven't been in pain. 

Jacob's POV

It was the end of class and I never felt so sad to end English literature before. It was time to go our separate ways and I didn't wan't to say goodbye yet. 

"Hey so you wanna swing by my place so that we could work on our poem? You know so that we don't have to cram everything in one day? I ask

"Sounds good Jacob. I'll see you around?" She says 

"Hey Serena, wanna have lunch together?" Hunter asks her

"Oh hey Jacob nice seeing you man!" Hunter says

I swear I could have punched the guy right then and there but he's innocent. He doesn't know Serena and I had history so it was time to let her go for a bit. 

"Bye you guys...see you around Serena" I say while bolting out of the classroom

"See ya!" She says 

All of a sudden, Loren comes up from behind me and grabs my ass

"Hey baby!" Loren says

"Loren get your hand off of me" I say

"Remember our deal?" She says

"fuck" I whisper

"What was that baby?" She says 

"Nothing honey" I say with a fake smile as we make our way to the canteen

Why did I get myself into this?
