POV: EMORY JOHNSON

"Guys are we leaving yet, I'm hungry cmon!?! G yelled while opening the door from outside. "Chill Jack where going" Johnson said going outside with Jack. "Let's go then", Lexi said grabbing my arm and pulling me out the door. We got into the car and drove to Whataburger. We walked in and G and J hurried to get the tables. I wasn't that hungry and I didnt have the energy to be here. I had too many things going on my mind making it hard to focus on the real world. "Em what do you want?".. "Emory??" I heard and realized I had totally zone out. Huh? "What do u want, we have all ordered." J said. Oh just a salad please, I said and went to sit down. G was there and I really didn't want to make a conversation at the moment so I just pretended to played on my phone. "Hey you ok?" G said. I really didn't want to talk, I wanted to settle things myself first than actually talk about them. Yea, I'm fine, I said but I didnt look up. He didnt say anything back, I think he got the cue that I didnt want to talk at the moment. I needed to settle things, so I went to Msg and typed Max..
Me: Max we need to talk, I'm at Whataburger and if u really want us to be together again you will come.
Max: I'll be there.
Me: k
(A few minutes passed)
Max: I'm here outside, where are you??
Me: I'm coming.
I stood up and walked off, I didnt even look back. I saw Max's car parked. "Hey, what's going on?" He said getting out of the car. Nothing I just been thinking a lot, and.. "And??" He said looking at me confused. And can we go somewhere els to talk? "Yea sure, hop on", he said and we both got in the car. We drove and drove in silence. We ended up in a park not far from my house. I got out and sat at a bench, and he follows. "So are you gonna tell me what's going on? I'm getting worried." Yes, I been thinking and thinking about us, and how we always been real close and if we had problems we would talk them out, and always find the way to solve them and be good. But this time it was different, I don't know in what way but I feel we both instead of trying to solve the problem we pushed each other apart. We been through a lot together and I really don't want to loose you for something that we could have settle a long time ago. "I love you Emory, and I can't imagine my life without you, these past weeks have been a disaster." He said and he hugged me. I hugged him back and just felt like forever. We let go and he starts leaning in, I didnt know what to do. He touched my cheek and leaned closer, and kissed me. I kissed him back and I finally can say I got to feel like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. I freaking love you, I said and we walked for a couple of minutes. Hey can you take me home?, I asked "Yea sure, its getting late. We walked back to the car and headed home..
When i got home it was almost 11 I knew either Lexi would be waiting for me or just nobody would notice. I opened the door and saw all the gang there Lexi, J, and G. "What the hell Emory!?!" Lexi said in an annoyed tone. What? I said going passed them and heading to the stairs. "Why did u leave just like that with out saying anything and didnt answer our calls?!? And come back here". She said I knew Lexi was going to get mad if I didnt go back, it wouldn't be pretty. Ok ok I'm sorry ok I just went with my gut and I also didnt want to say anything. I went to the park with Max ok, we settled things and everything is back to normal, ok. I'm tired so see ya later I'm going to sleep. I said walking right up to my bedroom and closed the door..

POV: JACK GILINSKY

"Wow well that went great", J said trying to ruin the awkward silence. I heard Lexi tell J something but didn't border to listen up and headed to my bedroom. I closed my door and just started to over think what just had just happened. (thoughts) Emory went back with that stupid Max, I cant believe it. I thought she felt something for me, and if she doesn't why did she kiss me back that day I gave her the kiss, making me think she could like me. I don't understand anything, I said out loud and headed to take a shower and sleep.
Next day... "Hey G your up earlier than other days", J commented as I walked into the kitchen. Yeah, I couldn't sleep so I just rather be up than just try to sleep. I walked over to the fridge and got some food. I sat right across J and started to eat. "I wonder if you couldn't sleep because Em told us she back with Max." What are you talking about man. "Hmm cmon jack I know you very well, I know you have feeling for Emory. I can see it." Ugh fine yea I think I do have a bit of feelings for her but i don't know man, you see she back with that Max, meaning i have no chance if so. "You never know, and when ever you make up your mind right and think you have feeling for her take chances and make her see that." Thanks J and yea your right. But I can't get my mind to how she went back with him if she saw him with that other girl and he treated her bad. "I don't know either but that's her, you can't judge." Yea I guess, I said and headed to the door. "Where you going?" Just gonna drive, it might take me away from just everything, I said and left...
