---------------------------------------------------------

MARC'S POV:
       I kissed jewel. I kissed the girl i like. I kissed a girl on my birthday Jesus Christ. I look at her and she looks at me. The fire flies had vanished and the only source of light was the moon. It made her glow and i finally find the courage to open my mouth. "Jewel?" "hmmm" she answers  "can i ask you something?" "sure you can" she says as she lays her hand on my thigh. "When do we start reading fifty shades of grey?", she gives me a naughty smile and says "well i can give you a practical lesson about whats in the book" and winks. "No no no thats not what i meant... Jeez i mean just for reading nothing else" "Im joking" she says and I dont know if im relieved or terrified. "I think we should head home" she says and i stop her. "Jewel you know im there for you right? " i dont know what the hell im talking about. She looks baffled and confused at the same. Good job Marc you have officially ruined the moment. "and I for you" she says once the words sink in. I just sometimes feel she is so lonely. The most popular girl almost scary but looks like a greek goddess does look lonely sometimes.
            As we move back to the car i hug her so hard I just never wanna leave. It feels good. It feels right. I can feel her heart racing.
             Nobody speaks anything on the drive back home. She drops me off and i hear her car ravving onto the emty roads. I reach home shut the door. As im removing my jacket i can feel something inside my pocket. Its Jewels bracelet. Its the kind where you can put pictures of the people who are dear to you. I opened it amd saw Mrs. Lockhart's picture and besides it was a picture of a very handsome Man who resembles largely like Jewel. Must be her dad. I keep the bracelet in the drower and promise myself to return her back tomorrow. I decide to text her.
              Hey buttercup today was amazing the best birthday ever, btw you left your bracelet with me its safe and sound dont forget to collect it from me. :)
          Mc
      I waited for almost an hour but no reply maybe she needs space because i keep bringing up these emotions shitty things and it freaks her out. I loathe myself seriously.
              The next thing i wake up in the morning with sun rays hitting my face. I check my phone to see if there is any messages from jewel but none i decide to text her again.
               Good morning buttercup!  :)
             Mc
        I again waited for an hour still no reply. I get ready for school cause there i can meet her. I have ruined this. I have lost her forever i say to myself as i sit down and a tear streaks down my cheek. Yeah now it feels like my birthday. I go outside to see no sign of mom and dad and i just walk out.  I clutch her bracelet close to my heart. 
             I reach school and there is still no sign of her. I see Veronica pass by and i find the courage to talk to her "hey have to seen Jewel? " "No" she says with an attitude and walks by.  "You stop there right now missy" i say with an authority that even im confused with. "Excuse me? " she says with a smirk.  "You better tell me where Jewel is right now" at this point im almost yelling. I can see the crowd gathering around us. "She is at home" she says and walks by. Did i just make Veronica cave? The things I do for Jewel.  Should i go over to her place? The hell with it im going. Im tired of people just ghosting on me. Jewel is probably the only one close to me anh hell im not going to let her go.  If she has to leave me she will have to prove ahe doesn't like me. Prove it to me that the kiss was fake. All the times she has protected me is a hokum. Just tell me she doesn't like me. My heart almost broke but there is weird determination within me for the first ever. Im gonna get you back Lockhart and thats a promise.
           After some time im standing at the entrace of her home.  As i move closer to the door i hear two people yelling.
      Jewels: Then why the fuck did you leave huh? To see how i fail cause news flash i haven't and im doing better than you, you gullible piece of crap.
Stranger's voice : Dont you talk to me like that you.
 
         Im almost scared as to what is going on as i move closer i realized that the door is open. I peep through it and see a man standing next to her and i recall him from his bracelet. Its her dad. Why are they arguing.
      As i am watching i see him raising his hand as he was about to do so i ran and caught his hand mid way. "Dare you lay hand on this woman" i say as her mom and Jewel bost gasp. "And who are you? " her dad angrily snaps at me. "Thats none of your business you have to leave right now if the young lady is saying so. Ill escort you to the door." The man looks at me and at Jewel and then leaves.
          Jewel catches my hand and takes me to her room. "So Marc you have nothing to do with my life. Do not try to interfere okay. Just stay the hell away from me. Im trouble and you know that. Im gonna come close to you and you will leave so why come close at all? Fucking leave me alone. 
          At this point i should be heart broken but im bubbling with anger. That's it enough, enough of it and i burst out. "Do you even know what you are talking about? Have you ever ever considered about me feelings? Jewels says go away i go away then you come back kiss me and those feelings come back. And yess i have feeling for you newsflash. Do you even know how fast my heart beats when i hold your hand? Every time i see you i wanna kiss your forehead. I want to protect you from any coming trouble even if i am so incapable of doing so. Now tell me Jewel... Is this love?  Cause yea i think it is ,you know what im done hiding it". I go to her balcony and shout "I LOVE YOU JEWEL LOCKHART" im pretty sure the entire neighborhood saw and heard that but i dont care. "I love you buttercup, and i forbid you to keep running away from me." she opens her mouth to say something. Damn she looks so vulnerable right now.  "I..... " that's all she says. "Im right here Jewel. Im not going anywhere. Always, forever and beyond if possible." and before she says anything i lock her hands behind her back and kiss her with such intensity and passion that i never thought i had. "i love you" i whisper againt her lips as her a tear against her cheek.
