Erika's POV:
I wake up with a big head ache. "Mom!" I yell "I feel sick Im not going to school" "Okay,Well Im away off to work so Ill see you tonight!" See answers and she leaves the house.I lay my head onto my pillow and cover my face with the covers. After a while of just laying around I reach for my phone and have missed calls from Maddie and Taylor "Fuck" I forgot to tell them Im not coming in. I call Maddie and tell her and she passes it on to Taylor.My room was getting really hot so I went to my window and reached to open it when I saw Jake in his room playing about with some screw drivers or what not. I reach for a piece of paper and write "Why you not at school?" I then open my window to let the fresh air in and throw a little pebble at his window to catch his attention. Jake looks up reads the paper and then writes "Feeling kinda ill" I then write on mine "Same here" Jake smiles and lift up what ever he was working on and continues to fiddle about with it. Before I reach my bed I hear a tap on my window I look over and see Jake holding up another piece of paper saying "Wanna hang out?" I nod and then Jake opens his window and so do I. "Wanna go up on the roof" he suggests "Sure,Lemme change real quick" i say rushing to my bathroom. After my quick change I head to the window to find Jake dangling his legs from the window "You ready" he asks "Yeah". We head up our separate ladders and arrive on our separate roofs. Our roof tops were closer from our windows which allowed us to actually talk.I sit down and Jake sits down opposite me. "You're Erika right? I never got to really ask you" "Yeah and your Jake" he nods as we continue asking each other simple questions. "Im not weird" says Jake making my eyes go big "Who says?" "You friend that came up to me at Starbucks" "Oh don't listen to her she thinks she knows it all" he looks at me "I just don't want to be caught up in all this school shit that every school has" he says kinda making me happy inside "Im like to be myself" says Jake looking into my eyes. He is different than everyone thought.
