You just dont know - At least I thought.

A few school periods later,  it was time for lunch. I grabbed my bags and walked beside Jessica.

I stared at her odd colored eyes then cleared my throat. "Wanna sit together at lunch?" I began, clearly noticing she was usually alone.

Jessies face brightened and turned to me, her pink cheeks grew brighter. "I'd love that, thanks so much." 

"No probl-" Before I could finish, she grabbed my arm roughly pulling me into the lunchroom, I sniffed the air and found myself "mm-ing" I was so hungry, that apple couldn't hold me off. Eh?

She smirked at me and turned back staring at the lunchroom. "But today, we're not eating here."

I raised my eyebrow at her biting down on my side lip. "Then where are we going?"

"Out to pizza hut to eat."

"Hey, guys."

We turned around to see Jonothan. Who was glaring at Jessica, but smiling at me. 

"Hey Jonothan me and Jessie are going to Pi-"

Panicking, she grabbed my arm for the second time, roughly dragging me out of the school. Heavily breathing and running down the sidewalk to Pizza hut.

I yanked back staring at her, "Can you please tell me whats going on about you and panicking when Jonothan is around deal-li-o thing?"  

She nodded, scratching her arm, it was a few blocks to pizza hut. I walked in behind her.

She turned to me. "What do you wanna order?" Jessica stared deeply into my brown eyes, taking a seat in the first empty table she could find.

I thought about it, "Cheese pizza, EXTRA pepperoni."

She nodded. "Same."

Our waitress came and we told her our orders, she flipped her bronze-colored hair and walked away.

"Someone thinks shes Tyra Banks." Jessica joked.

I chuckled. "So spill the beans. You know what i'm talking about."I glared dead at her.

She sighed looking down, her pale skin soon begin growing red, her face softening, it looked like her hair grew lighter. Weird. Her mixed-colored eyes met mine, and she began to speak. "He's a player. A ex of his that tries to warn his new hit it and quit it will get "punishment"." Beginning to play with her fingertips, she spoke again. "You just dont know, whats coming your way. After hes done with you, he'll make up lies, play jokes on you, hurt you, make everyone hate you, might have racism thrown towards you. We'll never know. But I just might." Jessica stroked her long hair down, then afterwards tyed it up into a ponytail. "You just dont know." She repeated. "I risked my life to tell you this, I just couldn't see you get hurt. I may have just met you, But i can already tell what a good person you are. No way i'm lettig you deserve this."

I couldn't speak, my hands trembled. I shivered a little, looking down. "Who and how many girls has he played?"

She shook her head, then smiled at the waitress who served us our pizza. "One is about to be Alyssa now that he's got you, alright. But he's played more than 30 girls at this school, I know a few, like um, Rina, Quinn, Dana, Isabel, Clementine, Stephanie, Naomi, Mei Si. And lastly Yelsa. Thats all I know."

I nodded, quite shocked, when I looked up at the open-viewed window, I thought I saw someone staring at me and Jessica, but it was just my imagination, at least I thought.
