Chapter 5
Alyssa’s POV
Sitting at my black desk, I wait for my laptop to finish booting. As soon as I had logged into skype, I immediately had a call from Jessie. As I accepted the call I saw that Jessie and Mac were sitting together in front of the screen. “What’s wrong?” Mac asked beating Jessie to the question.
Breaking down into tears, I replied, “Johnny…Johnny …Johnny broke up with me!” sobbing through my words.
“I’m gonna kill him.” Mac said surprising us all.
“I never liked him. He wasn’t good enough for you” Jessie said straight after Mac.
Calming myself down with the coolness of the ice cream, I continued, “Guys, forget him. He doesn’t deserve to be thought about, the douchebag. I have more important news: after he…broke up with me, I went to the Ice Palace to get some cookie dough and that’s where I re-met Jake Peterson. I say re-met because I found out that we’re in AP Bio together”
Interrupting my story telling, Jessie says “Hold it, hold it, are you talking about Jake Peterson, the journalist for the school paper?”
“Yeah, that’s him, I think”, I reply, remembering him saying something about interviews. “So continuing my story, we talked a little bit, found out that we were both getting ice cream for heart-break and since he is lacking in the friend department I invited him to sit with us for lunch. Is that okay with you guys?”
“Of course” Jessie says bubbly, excited at the prospect of a new friend and a journalist at that.
“Erm, okay” Mac says, hesitantly, almost questioningly.
“Okay, I knew you would be cool with it” I say, grabbing the tissue box from the side of my table.
“I’m tired now from all the sobbing and sadness. See you two tomorrow. Love you”
“Love you too Ally” they say in unison.
Mac walks away while Jessie blows me a kiss and then cuts the call.
Knowing that Mac is sceptical about new people, I decide to send him a text to reassure him. Belly-flopping onto my queen-size, lilac duvet and scattering my pillows I grab my phone out of my pocket. Opening up the message screen I start to type out a message to Mac:
Kenzo, r u really ok with Jake sittin with us? I don’t wnt u 2 b uncomfortable, ur more important than his lack of friends so tell me ok. xxx
After sending it, I begin to change into my PJ’s and halfway through I hear a ping coming from my phone. Rushing to finish my nightly routine, I rush to see Mac’s reply. Opening it in record time I read:
Oh Lee, ur 2 nice, nd I mean 2 evry1 :). I’m ok with it I was just pissd at that meathead John. U deserve a lot betta, I’ve always known that. Can I hurt him, pls? U kno he deservs it :) xxx
Laughing at his reply, I hit the reply button and start on my own reply:
Lol, no Kenzo, u cant hurt him. I told u he doesn’t deserve the attention. He’s a total attention whore nd u kno it. Thank u, I am nice rnt I :D and ur rite I do deserve betta but rite now I just wanna sleep so gudnite, luv u :* xxx
After sending the message I go into my adjoining bathroom and brush my teeth. As I’m coming out I hear my phone ping and knowing its from Mac I open it:
Goodnite Lee Lee, Jessie says goodnite as well, luv u 2 xxx
After I read the message I put my phone to charge and slip into bed. As soon as my head comes in contact with the pillow I drop off into dreamland.
