Noodles POV (Oops I misspelled Jack haha)
*flashback* (lets go back in time)

1 year earlier-

"W-what did you do Jack" Vivian cried as she put her ear against Noah's chest.
I looked down at the floor. My whole body was shaking. What did I just do?
"Im s-sorry. He c-called you sex-yy and h-hot and I g-got jealous" I said, my voice cracking.
"H-hes alive. Oh thank god" she said as Noah tried to open his swollen eye. Blood surrounded him. I only meant to hurt him a little. I didnt mean to literally knock him out.
"Jack I want you to leave."
"What? Why?"
"Get out of here Jack"
"B-but"
"JACK LEAVE!" She screamed.
I ran and ran. I didn't know where I was going. I just knew i had to go. I finally got to one of my favorite thinking spots on the opposite side of town. The Park. I sat on the swings and tried to catch my breath. I closed my eyes. I was an idiot. I opened my eyes and looked down at my hands. They were red and swollen. They had a little bit of Noah's blood splattered all over. Noah had been Vivian's best friend since kindergarten. He was the player in our school. After months of Him flirting and teasing Vivian in front of me, i finally had enough so i punched him and punched him until i wiped his signature smirk off his face.  I placed my head between my hands and cried. I was so stupid at times. It started pouring rain. Luckily I was near my house so I walked home. I got to my house all soaking wet. I didnt even bother to change, i just laid in bed and stared at the ceiling. I stayed there for days. I didnt go to school. I didnt eat. I just stared at the wall, thinking about all the stupid things I had done. Eventually, I dropped out of public school and enrolled in to online school. I never left my house. Everyday, I sang to distract myself from my negative thoughts. Eventually, i made a youtube channel and I started getting a lot of positive feedback. Then, some guys hit me up and we soon became a band and I moved to LA. I promised myself that whenever i went back to my hometown I would keep it lowkey so no one would know. So no one would go find me. So no one would blame me for almost killing Noah.

*Present Time*
Karen's POV

I watched as Jack stared at the ceiling. He had just finished telling me everything and now he was spacing off.
"It wasnt your fault" I said. He stayed silent for a few moments then he finally replied.
"I almost killed him"
"But he's still alive"
"I still hurt him"
"He deserved it"
"No Karen I deserved it. I Should've been the one being hit"
"Jack.. why are you saying that?"
"I d-dont know" his voice cracked.
I wrapped my arms around him and laid my head on his chest.
"You had to do what you had to do. Don't blame yourself"
"Thank you"
"For what?"
"For listening to me. For being caring. For being my girlfriend. "
I smiled and he pecked me on the forehead. We both stayed silent and eventually drifted off into sleep.
