Not Just Perfect

K.

{ Jack G's perspective }

"Hey man, how was dinner?" Jack J asked. "Move!" I pushed pass him hard, causing Jack J to stumble. "God! whats your problem, that hurt Jack!" I just kept going. I ran upstairs to my room. I shouldn't have done that. He didn't deserve it, I'm just pissed off. I threw myself onto my bed and sunk into the fabric. "Bro, you can tell me anything..." Jack J knocked on the door. "Whatever... Just come in, I guess." He opened the door and jumped onto my bed. "Are you okay man? Is it about Alex..?" "Duh." I replied, face to the pillow. "Jack....get up!" Jack pulled me up. "I kissed her.." I looked at Jack, and his jaw dropped. "She immediately pulled away... Obviously, but I got upset and ran out the door. She came after me in the rain, apologizing, then she hugged me after I started to...started to cry. Okay? Yeah I cried. Anyways she told me she loved me but I knew she didn't mean it so I ran home." I blurted out as quick as possible.

"Uhhhh, I'm really sorry Jack."

"Not like it's your fault, I just wish I could have her. Her blonde hair, blueish, greenish eyes, her cute nose, and just her personality. She's perfect, and I hate her for it!" I slapped my face into my palms. " I can't say I know exactly how it feels..." I could tell he felt sorry for me, but he didn't know what to say. "Yeah, it's fine." I just laid back down,staring at Jack. "I'm going to go hang out with Shawn, Carter, and Matthew, okay? Will you be all right? Do you wanna come?" "I'll be fine, and no. I need alone time." "Okay. I'm really sorry bro." "Yeah,yeah." Jack shut the door.

I got a text from "Alex💁👑" she put her contact as that. I immediately opened my phone.

"Jack, I'm sorry that all happened. I do care about you, weather you think I do or not. Okay.. Yes. I liked the way your lips felt on mine and yes I love your hugs. Yes I have feelings for you. I can't let Cameron know that, and I can't show them. No my feelings for you aren't near as strong as the ones for Cameron. And I'm sorry about that. But I do like you back. But I would never break up with Cameron. I'm in love with him and I'm only in like with you. I kind of hate the fact that I have feelings for you because I love Cameron and I would never do that to him. But we both can't control our feelings, but we are going to have too. That's how it has to be, and I'm sorry..."

I felt a smile on my face, knowing she did have feelings for me, but she was right they aren't near as strong as the ones she has for Cameron's. I just replied with "k." I know, I know. Asshole move, but I had too, I couldn't reply, I was too hurt.

{ Alex's perspective }

Wow Jack. Thanks. "K." Yeah that let's me know that you care. Maybe he just needs time. "Babe? Are you okay? You've been acting really different lately and you've been kind of ignoring me... Is there something your hiding?" I turned over to Cam and pecked his lips. "Of course I'm fine, and I'm sorry I'm not meaning too, and I'm not hiding anything from you!" I then looked at my phone seeing that Jack was typing. "Alex, I'm sorry. I just I don't really have anything to say right now. I'm hurting." "K." I replied grinning. "Who are you texting?" Cam began to look over my shoulder. "Oh just Matt." I quickly clicked on me and Matt's most recent conversation. "Oh, cool. What are you guys talking about?"

"Uhhh... Stuff. Um we are just talking about school." "Oh...okay.. Well yeah, I can't believe we have to go tomorrow." "Yeah. It's ganna suck!" "Not when your there." He kissed my cheek and got up from the couch. I giggled and saw that Jack had texted "look out your window." Oh gosh... What? I looked out my window to see Jack. "I'm lonely." He made a really cute puppy dog face. "Jack are you crazy? Cameron is here!" "Oh.." He scratched his head and laughed. "You have to go!" I chuckled. "Fine." He started walking, but I then ran downstairs and out the door. "Ok, wait!" "What?" Jack turned around surprised.

"Just hang out with both of us." "Ok, fine." I smiled and I told Cameron that Jack wanted to hang. "Sure thing man." Cameron had no idea. We all walked inside. "So where's Jack?" "The other one." I added to Cameron's question, giggling. "He's with some of the guys." "Oh cool, cool." Cameron smiled. "So prom is coming up.. Thinking about asking anyone?" Cameron looked at Jack. "Uhhh... No." I could tell Jack started to feel hurt again. "I'm probably not going." Cameron added. Right in front of me. I acted like I wasn't offended at all. Anger bottled up inside of me. "But..." Jack looked at Cameron then me. Cameron shook his head and then walked to the kitchen.

"What?" I gripped my hands. "Uh.." Jack could tell I was angry. I didn't want Cam to know that I was mad, so I made sure he couldn't hear me. "I can't believe him." "Calm down.. It's just prom." "But it only happens once in your life!" I said a little louder, but Cam still couldn't hear me. "It'll be fine."
