Jersey High | Grayson Dolan

Ten.

Jordan's POV*
I woke up, not hungry or hurt. Just awake, like I had been for hours. My mouth was dry and I got up to get myself some water. I went down to the kitchen and looked up at the clock, 5:26 AM. Holy shit. It's been a while since I've been up this early. I quickly went to my fridge and poured myself some water. I started to drink it as I was heading back to my bedroom. I couldn't stop thinking about why Grayson wasn't talking to me.

I looked at my phone, Ethan had texted me

Ethan
Hey, Jordan what's going on with you right now?

Jordan
What're you talking about?

Of course he wasn't going to respond because it's 5:30 in the morning. Since I was already awake, I decided to get ready for school.

Walking over to my closet I felt my phone buzz in my pocket.

Cam😜
Hey what's up?

Jordan
Nothing, just a little out of it I guess...

Cam😜
Anything I can do to help?

Jordan
It's okay
I'm just getting ready for school.

Cam😜
Oh, what school?

Jordan
Jh:)

Cam😜
Hey!! I go there too

Jordan
Well I guess I'll see you later.

I shut off my phone and started to get ready for the day. I put on some black sweatpants and a white crew neck. I slid on my socks and wore my black and white vans. I heard my phone ring from my dresser, where I had left it after texting Cameron.

Aaron was calling me. I picked up the phone.

"Hello?" I started

"Hey, I just heard that you go to our school?" He sounded a bit suspicious

"Yea" I chuckled "I'm about to skate over now" then silence began to rise until he spoke up

"You skate everywhere don't you?" He asked

"I mean, if not I would get driven by my mom everywhere. Skate boarding is fun anyways so why not?" I told him

"Okay, well we'll come meet you at lunch!" He replied happily

"I'll see you later A A Ron" I joked and he groaned

"See you later." He hung up and I grabbed my bag and board

I opened the door, I pulled my shoulder back too far and I hissed. It hurt. I started second guessing if I should go or not. I decided against my own words and left. My shoulder ached the entire way there but I felt with it. My earbuds were on playing erase me - kid cudi.

All I wanted today was to see everyone. Cameron, Aaron, Nash and Hayes. Ethan too. I'm not too sure about Grayson. He's been MIA. Ethan was the only person who wanted to talk. Well, ask me what's wrong. Ethan knew a lot and he hasn't known me as long as Grayson. I shouldn't stress about this and just hang out with my new friends. A car pulled up in front of me and a girl got out of the car, taking me off my board as I was about to reach the school.
