Today, I don't know what we're doing. I go downstairs and hear music blasting. It's the song 8TEEN by Khalid.
One of my favorites.
Jack takes my hands and spins me around. Then, he sings, "Just me and you." I melted. But, I sang along.
"You know that I've never been the smartest."

Groupchat
Grandma Jojo: when are you going to ask out emily jack!?
Bean:I see the way you look at her.
Zachary dick herron: My young eyes can't handle the singleness.
Ramengetlit: idk. I don't think I will. I see the way she looks at Zach.
Me: what the fuck do you mean? I may be younger than him but it's not like that. It never has been, and it never will be.
Ramengetlit: don't play Emily. You don't like me.
Me: well you don't like me either.
Ramengetlit: maybe i dont!!
Me: so that's why you call me Blondie and told me you love Me? That's why you make me love you, and want you. That's why you washed that pan yesterday? That why you fucking danced with me this morning?
I looked up from my phone and looked right at Corbyn. I let a tear fall and I sighed. I emedietly got up and walked upstairs.
I walked into Jack coming down. He started to say something.
"Shut it pretty boy."

I walked dout the door and got in the uber I ordered. I'm not going dancing, or boxing. I'm going to guitar center.
I walked inside to the smell of wood and observed the guitars on the wall.
I picked one up and sat down with it.
I started to play Teenage Fever by Drake. That's how I'm feeling.
When I finish, the boy at the counter started talking.
"You looking at that one?" He asks.
"Nah. I'm just here cuz I'm um... im just stressed." I reply slowly putting it back.
"Do you maybe wanna get some coffee sometime?" He asks.
"Uh sure. That sounds great." I say smiling.
"Here. Text me when ever." He said handing me a slip on paper.
"Thanks." I said leaving.

When I walk inside I see Jack. He flashes a quick look as if he's sorry. Why can we just work out? Why won't this work? "I'm sorry." I whisper looking down.
"Don't be gorgeous. You have nothing to be sorry about." He said as I thought about that boy.
I i did was shake my head.
"I do." I said extremely quietly.
"I don't care Emily. I'm sorry I was such a dick. I ready for the games to finish and I want to be the winner. And you be the trophy." He said lifting up myh chin.
"I talked to a boy." I say. "I'm not worth it anymore." I say letting a single tear fall. I try to walk away, but he grabbed me.
"You'll always be with it to me." He said as I yanked myself off of him and went to my room.
