Spectacular Now ( Jackson x Reader )

Drive By

All I had to do was calm her down, explain the situation.. Tell her how important she was to me, how good we were together and how much our relationship meant.

Flashback to Mark's party:

I made my way through Mark's house, while bumping into people. I finally found Jennie. She looked gorgeous in that dress, I couldn't help but smile. My smile went to a fake one when she noticed me.

"Jackson, what are you doing here?"

I walked closer to give her the flowers I had bought earlier. Only to see her with Jimin. I couldn't handle it. I inhaled, and spoke.

"Jennie, that is a really pretty dress that you're wearing right now. That's godamn stunning, that dress. That dress- wow. "

"Thank you."

Jimin grinned while looking at me. I just glared at him, when he asked.

"Is he drunk or something?"

Jennie looked at me sympathetically, and said.

"He probably is."

Jennie stood up, along with Jimin who said.

"Look man, I know this is awkward. Maybe we should-"

"No, it's really not awkward at all."

I fake laughed, when she said that.

"Jimin Park, talking to me? What an honour, man."

"Hey man-" He stepped forward.

"What an honour!" I stepped forward.

Jennie got in between us.

"Jackson!" She yelled, while looking at me, with Jimin right behind her.

"I completely understand the meaning of the phrase 'kicked to the curb', so I will bid you both a pleasant evening."

"Jackson, what happened here- "

"Just let him go. He drives better this way." She said as I was walking away.

"Thank you for that vote of confidence, beautiful. You are a very understanding woman in everything but love. Arrivederci.." But before I walked away, I had to say it.

"Fuck you.." Then I left.

End of Flashback

You want hardship, misfortune? There you go. Will I wallow in my misery? No, I won't UCLA. Not Jackson Wang. In the meantime, why should she be the only one having fun? It's a beautiful night outside, and I'm just getting started.

Reality:

"Can I see your ID?"

"What's up?" I looked behind the bouncer, saw a lot of people.

"Need to see your ID, bro."

"Dude, I had it, and then I forgot it-" With that I ran inside, losing the bouncer inside the huge amount of people.

I saw these 2 girls sitting near the bar. I walked up to them snaked each of my arms on the back of their necks, and spoke.

"What's up, ladies? I am 18, I just got dumped by my girlfriend and I really need a drink. So, would somebody- like, anybody... please have a drink with me?" I drank the night away with those 2 girls. All I remember was yelling outside a car window, and going to a house later on that night.

The next morning I woke up on a front yard. I was awoken by a girls voice.

"Hello?... Hey?... Hey!.."

I started opening my eyes. I couldn't see much of her, but she was pretty.

"Hi. Oh, my god. You're alive. I thought for a second that maybe you were dead."

I stood up with my hands, looked at her face. She isn't pretty, she's beautiful.

"I don't think I'm dead, but where the hell am I?" I said while looking around. I've never been here.

"Umm. You're in the middle of a yard. Do you know who lives here?

"No.. Jesus, I must've fallen asleep." I lost balance trying to fully stand up. I fell.

"Here. Let me help you up." She was strong. I got nervous noticing how her face was beautifully structured. From her eyes, to her nose, to her cheek bones, but my favourite was her smile. She had curves like a ketchup bottle. My head started pounding, I wanted to go home now.

"Where the hell's my car?"

"I don't know. Do you live around here, Jackson?" I looked at her confused. She knew my name.

"How do you know my name?"

"We go to the same school. You wouldn't know who I am."

"No, I know you. You're- uhh..." How have I not noticed her around school? She's gorgeous.

"I'm Jessica. Jessica Cruz." She smiled. Just seeing her in front of me now is making my heart beat fast.

"That's what I was gonna say. Nice to meet you, Jessica." I reached my hand out as an introductionary joke. She laughed so, I knew it worked.

"Nice to meet you." She said, while laughing.

"What time is it, Jessica?" She looked at her phone.

"It's like 6:00 a.m." I was curious. Why was she out here so early.

"Are you just.. getting back from a party or something?" She started laughing.

"No, I'm just doing my paper route. It's not really mine. It's my moms. But she was out with my stepdad last night at the casino, so they didn't get back till late." I want to spend more time with Jessica.

"Do you need help?"

"With my route?" I shook my head.

"No no, I'm okay. Thank you though."

"I can help you." She shook her head no.

"I'm good. Thank you."

"Jessica, you're gonna drive around the neighbourhood and I don't know where my car is. So I think we can help each other out... What do you say?"

ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc
