Jack Johnson's POV:
I sit at home watching tv eating food my mom left me before she went to work, she works late.
I feel really tired, so tired I don't wanna walk up the stairs so I decide to sleep on the couch.
I was starting to fall asleep when I feel my phone vibrate, it's a text from Jack.
Jack: Have you been messing with Isabel?
Me: No what are you talking about?
Jack: She says you told her I don't care about her why would you say that??
Me: I didn't say that I don't know what you're talking about!
Jack: If you're gonna try to ruin my relationship with her then stay away from us
- I sit confused I decide to stop replying.
Why would he think I said that? Doesn't he trust me? We're best friends I mean why would I try to get rid of the person that makes you happy?
Even though I do hate her, I wouldn't do that. I reread the message over and over all night, "Stay away from us" I feel like crying.
Is that it? Did I just lose my best friend? All the thoughts racing through my mind make me cry, tears start running down my face.
The next day I walk through the halls with my head down, looking at the floor hiding my face.
I don't even look at Jack or Isabel, the thought of them makes me even more sad.
Around lunch I go down to the cafeteria to get food and I see Isabel and Jack at a table laughing and feeding each other.
I stare a little too long a Jack looks over and sees me. He has a straight face now, he hates me I knew it. I walk away not looking back and I go to the library.
Thankfully it's empty I go to the back and start crying again. I put my hands on my face and put my head in my lap.
I feel a hand start rubbing my back, I pick my head up confused. It's Jack, "What's wrong?" He asks.
I stand up immediately, "What are you doing I can't be near you."
"What? Why not?" He asks standing up stepping towards me.
"I can't tell you I'm sorry." I turn away from him.
"No! We're going to talk about this, why are you avoiding me? Do you hate me? What did I do wrong Jack?" He has so many questions, I can't take it.
"I- I need to be away from you."
"No you don't we're best friends I don't want to be away from you." He says stepping closer to me.
"Jack.. Stop." I say backing up crying more. "You said you want me to leave you and Isabel alone so I- I will."
"Wait what? I never said that what are you talking about?" He asks confused.
"You texted me telling me to leave you and Isabel alone because you think I'm being mean to her."
"No I didn't someone must have taken my phone I would never say that to you I would never want you to leave me alone." He says stepping even closer.
"I care so much about you, I wouldn't be happy.. without you." He says pulling me into a hug.
I snuggle my head into his neck, accepting the hug.
He smells so good, and he's so warm, I feel safe in his arms, making me not want to let go.
"What's going on?" Someone says making me pull away from Jack.
Jack didn't expect me to pull away he almost didn't let go.
I look to see who was talking to us, it's a boy I think it's Jack's friend, Colton. He came out to Firebirds with us that night.
"Oh hey Colton, nothing I was just talking to Jack." He says talking for us.
"It seems like more than that." The boy says.
"Well it's not." Jack says.
Jack says goodbye to me and walks away leaving me with Colton.
"I know that was more than a hug." He says to me walking away.
