Crazy, Stupid, Love

Who is Jenny?

Chapter 1: Who is Jenny?

Jenny's P.O.V.

Its 2 weeks to Valentine's Day and exactly 14 days 16 hours to my best friend Kacey's Valentine's and birthday party. That's right my best friend Kacey's birthday comes on 14th February, Valentine's Day. She always has the year's hottest parties. They are the talk for months. This year isn't like every year. This year everyone has to go with a date. (Generally all of us just meet up and dance with random people) I don't have a date. I don't want a date. I never did, I've never had kiss. I am maybe the only 17 year old in the entire Milestone High who hasn't had her first kiss let alone lost her virginity. There is only a handful of virgins left. I believe that a person's first kiss is supposed to be magical. I've had a couple of boyfriends before. Three to be precise but I never kissed any of them. The closest to a kiss was with Carson and maybe I would've kissed him. I am kind of glad that I found out about him betraying me.

1. Tyler: He and I were on really good terms and I thought we really liked each other. At least I did.  On our first date he took me to the movies. I really enjoyed every single moment there. It was so much fun. After the movie he took me to KFC which was the only sad part. I mean which girl can have KFC's awesome chicken bucket on her first date? I was really tempted though (he was paying for everything) and I ordered it. I regretted it right away but I guess it was just a bit too late. He was the girl in this case. He ordered salad with a nice chocolate crusher. He saw me eat like I hadn't eaten for a week. After we ate he told me he had some work and has to go. He was being a real gentleman till then. I was embarrassed about the KFC incident anyways so he gave me the perfect opportunity to make things work. I agreed and said it's completely fine and I'll go by bus or take a cab.

After that day I never saw him again. He just disappeared. He didn't come to school the next day. I tried calling him but in vain. Being a good girlfriend I went to his house to see what's wrong but to my disbelief it was locked. I asked the neighbours and they said that they moved out to live all the way to Los Angeles. We lived in Chester Springs incase I haven't mentioned. It is a couple of hours away from New York. I was shocked. The next day at school I asked his friends if they knew about him moving out. They had similar reactions to mine. None of us had any idea. Sometimes I wonder what happened to him anyways. He just disappeared out of the blue moon. 

2. Erik: Erik was more of a boring kind of boyfriend. He was a guy with limited resources which is just a polite way of saying he was poor. He was really into books more like history books. He would buy used books and then cover them to preserve them. He was the geeky kind into literature. He was simply boring. We just went out for a month or so. I didn't even consider giving him my first kiss. Our first date was at an old Chinese takeaway store. He didn't even have enough money for the cheap takeaway food. I had to pay for the both of us. A plain disaster. All he talked about was biographies. When I tried to change the topic he talked about how dangerous polk can be to the body and how many diseases it can cause while I was freaking eating polk. I puked on him. Not the best memory to remember. I broke up with him the next day saying he was too smart for me which was true in a way. 

He and I are still on good terms. He is sweet and caring. Kacey always says that he still has feeling for me but I just don't want any complications.

3. Carson: He was the guy I really cried about after the break up. We were best friends since we were 5. We spent more time together than we spent with our parents or anybody else for that matter. I loved him since 3rd grade but I never told him. I was scared that I might lose my best friend. He asked me out last year. I accepted with a huge grin. I simply loved it. I had the best time of my life. He took me to New York on our first date. Our parents were best friends as well. They went on a trip together leaving us behind alone. He took me to New York in public transport. Both of us spent all we had saved since forever on the trip. We roamed around the streets of New York together. We were broke with just enough money to go back before our parents came back. It was simply magical. I fell in love with him all over again on that trip. After a month or so after the trip I thought I was ready to give my first kiss away to Carson- my best buddy. I went to his house to tell him that till I found out he was cheating on me. I saw him kissing Alice- my other best friend. I couldn't believe what I saw I was stunned. I confronted them bursting all my anger on them. Alice was crying and apologizing for what she did. She simply said; "I loved him before I came to know about your feelings." I was crying by this point as well. I asked Carson about it and he said; "I didn't know Ally loved me. I never did. After she confronted me I realized that I love her too. I am so sorry Jenny." I didn't cry because I lost my love (Tyler was my first love) but I cried because I lost both of my best friends. The people who I trusted the most broke my trust. After that day I became a friendless person. People hated me. People who I once called friends guised me. 

I never talked to them after that day. They are still together ever since. They were now the Golden Couple of Milestone High. Alice was the Queen Bee of our school while I was the Geek. It hurted to see them together ever since. I have seen them making out many times now. Sometimes in the Locker Area, sometimes in the canteen or sometimes even outside Carson's house (Yes he was and is my neighbour too). Their making out sessions are more intense now. I guess I am used to it now.
