Mad Sounds (Jack Barakat)

5 - Too Much

Title credit: All Time Low

Jack's POV:

"What-what are you doing here?" I ask a little shocked that by chance I ran into her. She's so much more beautiful then in pictures. Wait! What?! No Jack. Jail-bate. Jail-bate. Jail-bate. But only for a few weeks. No. Still jail-bate!

"We got off school and I offered to buy, so here we are." She says quietly, I can see the two girls she is with are burning a hole into the back of her head from staring at her.

"Who is this Jack?" May asks innocently, coming over to us with her frappé in hand.

"May this is Cecilia." May nods her head. "Cecilia this is May, my sister."

"It's an honor to meet you." Cece says, extending her hand out for May to shake it. May gives me an uneasy look and shakes her hand. Boy do I have some explaining to do.

"I bet Jack would love to stay and talk, but we have to get back to the house and-uh help our mom make dinner." May says starting to walk towards the door. I can tell she just wants to get out of here and screech at me at how I know such a young girl.

"No we don't." I shoot back playfully. She turns around and shoots me daggers, but it doesn't phase me.

"Yes, we do." She snaps at me then turns to the girls. "Nice to meet you Cecilia and friends, but we must be going." She says in a sweet tone to them, then turns back to me and grabs my arm. "Lets go." She says sternly and starts pulling me out of the shop. I shoot Cecilia an apologetic look and mouth "I'm sorry". She gives me a small smile of understanding, making me sigh. I'm a 25 year old man and my sister is treating me like I'm 10. We get to the car and she is boring her eyes into my skull.

"Explain. Now." She says fiercely. I sigh.

"So a few months back we called a caller for Full Frontal and it just so happened to be her. I gave her my number because she said she was having troubles at home. I'm just there for her." I somewhat lie to her but it was also the truth. except the only reason why I gave her my number in the first place is because she isn't like other girls and I can't help but feel like I'm slightly falling for her. May nods her head understandly, she knows I'll do anything to help out a fan, even if it to just be a listening ear.

"How old is she?" I stay silent and she repeats it a little louder. "Jack, how old is she."

"17." May looks over at me with an annoyed expresssion, that says it all. Before she opens her mouth to bitch some more I continue. "She turns 18 in almost 2 weeks, it's nothing to get worked up about." May relaxes in her seat then drives off back to our parents house.

Cecilia's POV:

"Well that was, awkward." I say turning around to face Ashly and Stacey. They sit there still shocked out of their minds. "Hello? anyone home in there?" I ask waving my hand in front of their faces.

"That. That was Jack Barakat." Stacey stutters out.

"Thank you captain obvious, it was also his sister." They finally snap out of their daze and drink their coffee. Thank god or I would of had to smack them both upside the head. We sit and talk for a while, mostly about nothing but I can't seem to keep my mind off Jack. I finally met him, not the way I imagined I would, but I did.

"Opp, Matt just texted me. I have to take him to that stupid party tonight." I check the time to see it's already after 4. We've been here for that long? We head out to the car and drive out of the over crowded city. I drop Stacey and Ashly off before heading home. We plan to have a movie night at Ashly's after I take Matt to that party, so I just dropped both of them off at her house.
