Jack Johnson's POV:

The next morning I force myself to go to school. Avoiding Jack is gonna be difficult. I can't start my day without seeing or talking to him this is gonna tear me apart.

It's a good thing I already have my books and supplies for my classes so I don't have to go to my locker, making this avoiding thing a lot easier.

I walk the hall opposite of Jack so he won't see me. I see Isabel walking towards him, she sees me too because she looks over and smirks at me. I can't believe her, she's rubbing it in.

I watch her talk to him for a second, she purposely kisses him because she knows I was looking. I walk away to my classes trying to forget this.

After a few days of avoiding Jack I see him in the cafeteria, he sees me too, he waves at me telling me to come sit with him and Isabel.

I walk away he looks confused, I keep walking. Please don't follow me. I walk for a few minutes and look back, he isn't following me, good.

The next day at school during third period I ask the teacher to go to the bathroom. I walk in to skip a little bit of class, I walk in and see Jack.

"Hey." He says smiling. "What are you doing in here."

"Skipping class, I've been walking around and almost got caught so I came in here. What about you?"

"I- I can't-" I say walking out I can't tell him or talk to him I can't risk it.

"Wait! Where are you going!" He calls after me confused.

"Don't follow me Jack you can't."

"Why can't I? Why are you walking away from me what's going on?" He says trying to keep up.

"I can't get caught talking to you." I start to run, maybe if I lose him he'll let it go.

I turn a corner and hide in a closet.

"Jack?" I hear him in the hall. "Jack, we're going to talk about this you're my best friend I'm gonna find out why you're running from me." He says leaving I guess to return to class.
