Love in the Spotlight

School SUCKS...so does Shaun

Jake POV:  After I left M.Js, I had to find a way back into the school. It's not as easy as getting out. I saw a parent walking in, so I followed him until I got in the building. After that, run, get what I need, and get to class. I got into class at the perfect time, until, "JAKE L. TO THE OFFICE NOW!" Well.. SHIT. After I got to the office, I got talked to, got detention, blah blah blah. I had to stay in the office room until lunch, which was about 2ish hours. During that time, I thought of places in the country to take M.J. to. As I got my thought of where to go, it was lunch. "Don't do it again Jake," the principal sternly spoke.

"Well, I finally got the date!" I exclaimed to Shaun. "That's fuckin' AWESOME dude!" he congratulated me, "maybe you'll get free weed!" "Shut up dude," I said. Shaun was a pretty big smoker until he was caught and has 2/3 strikes. If he got 3, he would be off the team and kicked out of school. "Hey, wanna go to The PUMP for lunch?" Shaun asked me. "Yeah, you need a ride?" I ask him. "Yes and no..." he starts to say. "What do you mean?" I question. "I need a ride there, but I have a way back with the team." "Ah, got it," I say. Why does he need a ride from me there but not on the way back? The bell rings, and he looks at me, "Beat you to your car!" "Oh you are ON!" I yell. He was right...he beat me.

When we arrive at The PUMP, I see the whole team is waiting for.... for me. "Hey, isn't it the WEED MAN," #24 said, "we heard you may have a way to get some free green." "Ya know, why would I give it to you fuck-bags?" I snap. OH NO NO NO! STOP! "Woah, we got a fighter here," #45 states, "why don't we show him how we take back-talk." WELL, YOU'RE FUCKED. They pulled me from my car and I wasn't about to go down easy. #24 came charging, so I sidestepped away, and he may or may not've dented my car door. "I'm gonna fuck you up you sack of shit!" #45 screams. "TRY ME!" I stated. As #45 came charging towards me, I surprisingly moved just quick enough to make him lose his balance as he threw a punch that barely missed me. When he was on the ground, I was smart enough to charge and knock him out. As I was getting up, #24 screamed, "Shaun! NOW!" As I looked over, I saw him charging me with a board that was pretty heavy by the looks of it. "SHAUN! WHAT ARE YOU DO-" I was hit hard enough to hear the crack and snap of the board, and I blacked out as soon as I hit the ground.

M.J POV:  "Who am I, someone that's afraid to let go. You decide if you'll ever let me..." As I passed the PUMP, I see Jake on the ground with a puddle of blood and a cracked 2X4. I was surprised that I didn't hit one of the thugs that beat him up, wishing I did though. I jumped out of the vehicle and ran towards the thugs, but they were in a vehicle and were peeling out of the lot already. "FUCK! JAKE! WAKE UP! SOMEONE CALL AN AMBULANCE! Come on Jake, stay with me! PLEASE!"
