birthday surprise

chapter 11

The next few weeks have been hell. Jonah and Daniel are mad at me. Jack doesn't want to see me. Zach keeps trying to get together again, which makes Jack even more mad. And Corbyn has been trying to get Jack and Zach to be friends again, so he hasn't had much time to hang out with me. but today I decided that I was going to fix everything. I woke up at 6 am, got dressed, and started to make pancakes. I cut up some fruit and put everything into bowls and set them in the car. I drove to the boys' house and knocked on their door at 8 am. Corbyn answered it and helped me put some stuff in the kitchen. I set the table and Corbyn went to wake the rest of the boys up. Jack walks through the door a couple of minutes later and yells, "Corbyn! You didn't tell me she was gonna be here!"
"She made you breakfast! You should at least hear her out." Corbyn yells back. Jack sits at the table and starts shoving the pancakes into his mouth. Then Jonah and Daniel start eating. Zach and Corbyn sit right next to me and the other three sit on the opposite side of the table, away from me.
"Let me explain myself, please." I tell them. Jack motions me to go on with his hand.
"Look, it was just a one night thing. I was missing you, Jack, and I didn't know how to handle everything that had happened. I-" Jack stopped me.
"But you knew I was coming home the next day. You couldnt have waited another 24 hours?! Or did you tell Zach too and you planned the whole thing. You just wanted to break up with me didn't you? You just felt bad for me when I asked you out and that's why you said yes? Am I right?" He screams.
"You knew?! Thanks for breakfast." Jonah says, almost breaking his plate from throwing it into the sink. He walks back up stairs, probably even more annoyed with me now then he was before. Jack follows him.
"Lizzy, are you kidding me? Jack was right, and I probably would've followed them if this watermelon wasn't so good." Daniel says.
"I know right! It's so juicy and flavorful." Corbyn says. Zach takes my hand.
"It's okay Lizzy, you have me." He says.
"We've talked about this. I can't have you." I yank my hand away and walk out of their house and go back home. The whole car ride back my eyes are like rivers. Tears were flowing out of them nonstop. I had to pull over a few times to wipe my eyes and face. When I get home I get a text from Corbyn.
Corbyn: theyre all really mad at you, but i think they enjoyed your cooking :) i saw jonah come back out once you left. a few minutes ago jack came back out and started eating too.
I left him on read. I decide to call up Jake and Logan and go out for lunch so we could catch up. I figured maybe they would have some advice for me to get Jack back.

*at lunch*
I told them everything that happened, from start to finish.
"Well if I were him I wouldn't take you back. I'd probably do the same thing as him if I were in that situation to be honest." Jake says.
"Well great. Not only did I lose some of my best friends, but I definitely lost the best boyfriend I'll ever have." I say quietly.
"Aww, Lizzy it'll be okay. They'll come around. But I'm just mad that you didn't make me any pancakes." Logan laughs.
"You guys aren't taking this seriously! You're supposed to be on my side." I say.
"It's kinda hard to be on your side when you're in the wrong." Jake says.
"Lizzy we're just messing around. Of course we're on your side, we just dont know what to do. You kind of messed up." Logan says.
"Kind of?" Jake says, staring at Logan. Logan kicks him in response.
"Just give them a little more time. In the meantime, you still have us and Corbyn."
