I woke up the next morning pretty early to read comments, get ready and such. I was going through the comments when I decided to have a look at twitter. Jack tweeted, telling my fans that everything was all a lie. So I decided to also tweet him
@ Jack_Dail I didn't need to make a response for you to get attention. I made a response to clear the air. I won't be responding to anymore comments about this situation because if you want to talk we can do it over dm's.
He didn't respond right away and if he did, I wasn't going to start a fight over twitter. I turned off my phone and started to get dressed. I put on a pair of high waist ripped jeans, a white slim fitted top and a Shawn Mendes denim jacket. I put on some black low ride nike's and pu tmy hair up into a high, sort of curly mid rise ponytail. I grabbed my phone and my bag and headed out the door. Today I walked to school because I was a bit early.
I started nearing the last corner I needed to before getting to school when Jake pulled up in his car.
"Want a ride?" He asked
"Sure." I said blankly. This would be the perfect time to tell him I wasn't looking for a relationship.
"Jake, we need to talk." I suggested
"Yeah. what about?" He questioned
"I'm not really looking for a relationship right now, I didn't know how to tell you yesterday without hurting your feelings." I quickly replied.
"Oh, well I already posted that we were dating on my channel." He said. I turned to him wide-eyed
"What?!" I exclaimed. "Jake it's only been a day! Why would you say anything at all?!" I was pissed
"I didn't think anything of it. Jordan, it kind of just happened." I was furious with him. I new I shouldn't have trusted a guy that I had just met.
"stop the car." I whispered.
"What?" he asked
"STOP THIS DAMN CAR JAKE!" I yelled.
He pulled over to the side of the street, right before we had reached the school. I stormed into school, it felt like a dark cloud was over me the entire time I was walking. I put in my earphones and turned up the volume, I was too busy thinking to realize that I wasn't paying attention and I bumped into someone.
I fell backwards onto my ass. It really hurt. I looked up from my feet as I was getting up off the ground.
"Sorry." I apologized and he looked up me, looking straight back down at his arm.
"It's fine" He shook his head
"Are you sure that you're fine, it looks like you fell onto your arm pretty hard." I rushed down to the floor to look at his wrist.
"It's fine, really" He kept nudging me to stay out of it. I kept refusing
"Hey, it's okay. I'm not going to hurt you." He looked up at me and raised an eyebrow.
"On purpose" I continued
"Okay." He whispered
I helped him get up. He was so muscular but quiet. He looked up at me as I looked down to grab his things.
"Here" I said handing everything to him.
"Thanks." He answered
"I know you didn't mean to bump into me, I wasn't looking where I was going either." He reassured me that I wasn't to blame
"It might actually be my fault, actually I was pretty upset and I was rushing everywhere." I replied
"Well, whatever the reason, it's okay."
"Good" I said
"My name's Grayson." He said
"Mine's Jordan, nice to meet you." I told him
"Why haven't I seen you around school before?" He asked
"I just moved here from Wisconsin" I replied.
"Oh. Well, maybe we can catch up sometime, maybe I can show you some of my favorite places to go." He suggested
"I don't know. I was kind of supposed to be taken on a tour yesterday of the school and was taken to the roof, where I didn't want to go." I said
"You don't have to worry about that with me. I don't try anything, I just show." He responded.
"Okay, Grayson I'll meet you after school by the front door." I told him just as the first period bell rang.
The day went by pretty slow. I guess the second day isn't as interesting as the first. I caught Grayson during lunch, he wasn't sitting with anyone. I sat with him and we talked about random things. We seem to like a lot of the same stuff. We talked about his twin brother, who wasn't here today because he was sick, but he sounds pretty cool. His name is Ethan.
After school I met Grayson where we had agreed to meet.
"So, the first place I want to take you is to this skate park I usually go to."
"Okay, is it close?" I asked
"Yea, it's kinda close." He answered
Grayson showed me a few tricks on his board and then we went to go get a snack at a cafe around where the park was. It was a really nice afternoon and I was having such a great time with him. Gray is like my best friend now, and he's really pretty.
The next day I met Grayson at his locker and we walked to class together, turns out we have a lot of the same classes too. After school he took me to a place by the lake, it wasn't a store or a shop, I didn't really know what it was. There was a blanket and a view of the lake. It was a bit chilly considering it was fall. Everywhere Gray has taken me so far has amazed me to an extent that I've never experienced before.
He was the only person in my life that was making me feel safe. I actually trust Grayson, he hasn't tried anything yet. I'm happy that he actually sees me as a friend and not some pretty girl, which I'm not. I think that Jake just thinks I'm easy.
I went home that night, texting Gray.
Jordan
