Olivia's POV

"Mom?" Jack says with surprise and nervousness in his voice, he steps forward a little bit. My eyes widen at the name. I do not want to meet Jack's mom while i'm pretty much naked from the waist up. I scramble to put my top back on. 

Once I do I jump off the counter and walk to stand next to Jack. "Mom what are you doing here?" he asks obviously flustered that he was caught almost doing the 'deed' with a girl. 

"What do you mean what am I doing here? I came home to see you." She smiles at him and pulls him in for a hug, which she accepts. They pull away from the hug and she looks over at me and smiles softly. I blush from embarrassment and smile back. "Who's this honey?" 

"Oh, uhm. This is Olivia." Jack scrambles with his words again. 

"It's nice to meet you Olivia" She smiles at me. I smile back and put my hand out for her to shake, but to my surprise, she pulls me in for a hug. "You're very pretty" 

 "Mom" Jack whines. I slap his arm, telling him to be respectful to his mother. Not that I can say anything with the position I'm in with my own mother, but Jack's seems very sweet. 

  I blush at her words, "It's nice to meet you Mrs. Gilinsky"  

"Oh please call me Katherine love." I nod at her words. "At least I know Jack has a girl that can put him in his place." She laughs. 

I laugh as well, "actually Jack and I aren't dating. Not yet anyways." Jack looks down at me and smiles. 

She raises her eyebrow, "Oh, my bad love. Considering the compromising position I found you guys in I assum-" I become flustered yet again.

"Mommmm" Jack whines again and I let him. 

"What? Are you guys being safe?" She pushes. 

"Yes mom god! We haven't even had sex yet!" Jack exclaims. 

"Jack" I say sternly. He looks down at me with apologetic eyes. 'Sorry' he mouths. 

"We're going to go upstairs now." Jack says and drags me upstairs. 

Jack shuts the door, leaning against it. I look at him and he lets out a deep breath. Suddenly, I burst out laughing. "I-I can't b-believe she c-caught us" I laugh. 

Jack starts laughing as well, "It's only happened once before." 

I raise my eyebrow at him, "with who?" 

He sighs, "My ex girlfriend."

"Who's your ex?" I ask and sit on the edge of his bed. He follows swiftly and sits beside me. 

"Her name is Leigh, we dated for a year and half. She's one of the reasons why I left my other school. After I caught her cheating on me with my ex best friend, I started relying on drugs and alcohol. By drugs, I mean like coke, and xanax and molly. Drugs like that, they clouded my judgement and I did some really stupid things. I went to school high, luckily I never got caught but I was a complete mess. I was in a lot of physical fights and I started to mess around with a bunch of girls," 

Jack stops for a second, collecting himself. I rest my hand onto his thigh, letting him know it's okay and that he can trust me, "I-I got a girl pregnant, but she ended up getting an abortion. I became worse and fell into depression and got anxiety. That's where I got my anxiety attacks that I told you about from, I tried to OD and that's when my mom found me, I was completely limp. I was close to dying. After that, and seeing how scared everyone was for me, I decided to get better. So this past summer I was in rehab and decided to start fresh and go to a new school My mom's been my rock since, but she's been so caught up in work that she's barely been home. Anyways when I got to the school I'm at now I couldn't trust any girl because of how fucked up Leigh made me. I made a vow to not date and only sleep with girls, which sounds really bad, but that's why I acted so cold towards you when we met."
