Ms. Perfect (completed)

Chapter 3

Erika's POV
After Jake walked away I turned to Sunny

S: you know he likes you right

E: no he doesn't he's just taking it slowly until he gets the chance to try and get in my pants just like every other guy in the school.

S: I'm telling you he likes you. This is how he acted before he was dating Alissa. She's a b•tch but he loved her and he acted just like he acts around you. He is protective and nervous.

E: but since the incident with Alissa he's changed like a lot.

S: he was always known as the most respectful guy towards females and he still kinda is. Hell his friends even hit on you and after they did I over heard them talking about how hot you were and Jake yelled at them to stop. His friends talk about each hot girl in this school and Jake has only stopped them for you. The kid likes you a lot. They used to call him Mr. Perfect before Alissa hurt him. Kinda funny everyone called you Ms. Perfect and him Mr. Perfect but you guys weren't even together.

E: are you sure he likes me or are you still sick of me not dating anyone.

S: one he likes you for sure and two you're 18 you need to at least kiss someone.

E: I will kiss somebody when I'm ready. I want my first kiss to be with someone I love forever.

S: maybe that someone could be Jake

E: plus he has some type of rule thing. One of them is don't take a girls v-card which probably also means no first kiss either and don't let a girl in. Jake doesn't want to be in another committed relationship after what Alissa did to him.

S: are you sure you don't like him?

E: Sunny you know I've liked Jake since the 5th grade. He is a great guy just not the guy for me.

*next day*

I've noticed that Jake stopped coming to school the day after my birthday and I've always been scared to ask why.

Jakes POV
So here's the deal when I was 17 me and my little brother Tydus we're going to the park but there was an accident. I let go of his hand so I could tie my shoe but he ran off into the middle of he street and the car didn't stop.

It was November 13. I decided to skip school on that day and go to the grave yard and spend the day there. I will go to that cemetery every single November 13 for the rest of my life.

I always bring my favorite picture of us. It's not the best quality but that was his 5th birthday he was so happy that day.

*at cemetery*

I sat down facing his grave.

J: hey little man, I know you can't really hear me but you never know. I still think it's so so so unfair that you had to go. You were only five years old, but I do know you are in a much much better place.....you said one day that you wanted to be just like me, and I couldn't tell you but you don't want to be like me. I'm a bad person. I use girls because I'm broken because of what one girl did to me. I try to tell myself that what I'm doing is wrong but I just can't stop I need you here with me just seeing your face one more time would tell me to stop and I would. You were my best friend and it's so hard to live without you. I tried it a couple times, I tried to end it all but Logan found me. I know you saw that and know you were probably so so disappointed with me and I'm sorry. I love you.

Bye the end of all of that I was sobbing. I got up and walked home with my head down.

Erika's POV
School was out and I had to walk home because Sunny had to go home early. As I was walking home I saw Jake at the cemetery. He got up from where he was sitting and started walking home with tears falling from his eyes.

*next day*

Jakes POV
I was chilling with my friends by my locker.

M: yo Jake Ms. Perfect keeps on looking at you.

A: do you think she wants to hook up with you?

J: no she doesn't and if she did I wouldn't because I don't take virginity's.

M: here she comes

J: no fvcking way is she-

E: hey Jake can I talk to you?

J: um-

A: yeah he can

I followed Erika too an empty classroom

E: so yesterday I saw you at the grave yard crying and I just wanted to know if you were okay.

J: did you hear what I said?

E: no I didn't I promise.

J: yeah I'm fine it's just a thing I do.

E: I just wanted to check in it's the least I could do since what you did for me on my birthday.

J: can you not tell anyone though not even Sunny? My friends don't even know about that.

E: sure no one will know unless you tell them yourself.

J: thanks

E: I'm gonna hug you now.

J: o-okay

We hugged then parted ways.

A: what happened?

J: nothing

M: so y'all didn't kiss

J: no we did not. We all know if we did kiss I wouldn't be standing here now and I would have broken rule numero uno.

A: here's what I think. I think you like Erika you're just scared to admit it. I have never heard you call a hook up beautiful or trip over your own words while talking to them. You like Erika.

M: finally you said something Tony, I was gonna but I just didn't know how to word it.

I opened my locker to get my books but the first thing I see is another picture of me and Tydus. I paid $200 just for us to take good quality pictures.

I just stared at the picture

M: you good man?

J: yeah I'm fine

A: I know yesterday was the day he passed.

J: I said I'm fine now I gotta go to class.

They know the day he passed but they don't know that I sit at the cemetery all day.

M: we have the same class

J: can you get a fvcking clue I want to be alone so I'll be walking to class alone.

Okay I'm still a bit messed up so I went out the back of the school so no one would see me cry.

I sat down against the wall with my head down and just cried.
