Athena's pov

I woke up unfamiliar with what happened last night. My last memory was being live with Jack in my room. I got up from my bed, showered, got on some shorts, a plain black crop top, and white converse. I put my hair up in a messy bun and grabbed my skateboard. I looked for my bluetooth speaker, my backpack, and the went and knocked on Jack's door.

"Come in." He shouted.

I opened the door revealing the boy dressed, and laying in bed using his phone.

"Down for a ride?" I said as I showed him my skateboard and smiled.

"Sure." He smiled back and then got up and picked up his skateboard as well.

Jack and I go almost every week skateboarding together, it's like our thing.

"You had breakfast?" The boy said as he tied his hair in a man bun.

"No, but i'll just have a granola bar and we can go have lunch later." I replied considering the fact that it was already 11:30 in the morning.

We went out, not even bothering to tell Zach or any one. I turned my speaker on, and as I did Jack told me something.

"Can I put music on?" He asked as he got his phone out of his pocket.

"Sure." I simply said.

As the song started playing I realized it was 'obsessed' my newest single.

"Awe, I feel important." I said as I laughed and then kept my eyes on the road so I wouldn't fall on my ass.

Jack simply laughed, then adding "How did you come up with those lyrics? They're pretty deep."

"I lived them. Remember my abusive ex boyfriend that also cheated on me?" As he nodded, I added "Well my mom took me to a therapist, and she told me to right everything that I felt into a notebook, so those are the words I wrote in that notebook. Then I decided to write a song with those lyrics and, that's where it came from."

Jack just said a simple "Oh, interesting." The whole way was quiet. We decided to go to our nearest beach, not to swim, but to relax instead.

When we finally got there, we just sat on the sand. We started talking about random topics.

"So, Gray." Jack said and looked at me. "Do you like someone?" he added quickly.

"Uhm. I don't know." I said a little bit nervous.

"What do you mean you don't know?"  He chuckled

"I don't know if I like someone." I said letting a little laugh at the end.

"At least you got to find someone attractive." He said as he looked at me again.

"Well duh. Of course I find someone attractive." I said as I played with the sand. "Very attractive actually." I added with a little shy tone.

"Who's the lucky guy?" He giggled a little bit.

"I cant tell you." A smile formed on my chapped lips. Mostly because I was nervous of admitting that it was Jack who I was talking about.

"Well I do like someone." He said looking into the ocean.

"Noodles got a crush, huh?" I said as I softly laughed.

He just simply laughed. There was a silence for some good 10 minutes, allowing me to listen to the waves crashing with each other, and the bird singing one after the other. Deep in my thoughts, I wished I would be cuddled up with Jack, listening carefully to the beautiful sounds that nature has to offer. Jack is my best friend. I did not wanted to mess anything up, plus, he likes someone else. I do like him. A lot. Since I met him I knew there was something special about him. I've liked him for some good 6 months or something like that, or i'd said, realized I liked him like 6 months ago. I've always felt something different for him. But I wish he can be happy with whoever he likes.
