Should I Love You?

Chapter 8

Jen p.o.v.

I hurry and head over to Ian's house. It's a short walk.  Like maybe 10, 20 minutes walking, but if you run it's 5 minutes.

I get there and see Sydney's car. I sigh. I see Sydney knocking on the door.

"Sydney! Wow. What are you doing here?" I say, acting surprised.

She smiles. "Getting my boyfriend back. Obviously." She says.

"I think he would've opened the door already if that was true, but I'm just guessing." I say.

She sighs. "Like you would know. You never even had a boyfriend."

I sigh. At least I haven't slept with every guy in the school. Is what I would've said if I was Cazey. How does she just confidently say this stuff?

"He's not ho-"

"Jen? What are you doing here?" I hear Ian yell from his bedroom patio.

I look up. Out of all times he could pop up.

"I'm here too!" I hear Sydney say. She steps off the porch ane stands beside me. "Can we talk?" She ask, looking up at him.

He let's out a sigh. "Yeah. Come on up." He says.

I follow her in. I sit down on the couch. I wait until she walks in the room. Once she's in, I go to the door. I lean my ear on it

"Hows it going?" Sydney ask.

"What?" Ian says.

"The plan."

"Great. She totally believes me." He paused. "Why am I doing this? She seems like a sweetheart and she's really funny."

Are they talking about Cazey?

"That bitch needs to pay for what she said. You're not falling for her... Are you? How long do you think this will be?"

"All I have to do is sleep with her and leave her. Usually doesn't take long to get a girl to sleep with me. Just gotta get her to fall in love."

Please don't be talking about Cazey.

"She's not gonna give it up to easily though. So don't rush it or this plan will fail."

"I know Sydney. Why are you hear anyway? If Jen finds out. It's all over."

"She won't. Jen is to scared to speak up anyway. If she did find out she would keep her mouth shut. Wouldn't wanna ruin your and hers so called 'happiness'."

I step away from the door. I have to tell Cazey. Before she falls for him.

I dial her phone number.

"Hello?" Opal answers.

I sit on the couch. "Big problem. Where's Cazey?"

"You're on speaker." Cazey says

"Well..."

"Now leave. I have someone else I like!" Ian yells, pushing Sydney out.

I look over. "I'll tell you later." I hang up.

I can't let them know I know.

Ian sits by me. "By the way. How's Cazey?" he ask.

I watch as Sydney leaves. Once shes gone, I look at him.

"Are you... Are you gonna hurt her?"

He shakes his head no. "I really like her." He stares at the tv.

"She has a lot going on. Please don't hurt her." I say.

He looks at me. I look at my hands.

"I'm not. If you overheard what me and Sydney said. Well... At first. That's what Sydney wanted me to do, but I actually like Cazey now. So I was just telling her."
