Jennys POV
it was 11am and i had just woken up. i pulled back the sheets of my bed and slowly sat up. i put on slippers and walked towards the door, a movie still playing that i had fallen asleep to. before opening the door i checked off yesterdays date on the calender, december 30. today was the last day the project was still in place. alice and i hadnt spoken for a month just to let the tension build up to this point.
the first thing i did was call up Q. today we were supposed to hangout and do fun stuff for the last day of the year, like water fights and video games. he was still good to go and so were my friends. today would be a good day. even better if alice, trent and carlos were here i thought to myself while leaving my room.
i had a shower and got changed into dark blue jeans and a light blue elmo singlet before brushing my teeth and putting on my black shoes. i then started walking down to the footy feild, that was where the day was to begin.
when i got there Q and jade were already there so the only person left to wait for was jordan. jade was there at 11 and Q got there some minutes before i did. we only had to wait about 5 minutes before jordan showed up, the first thing that happened was jade running up and hugging him. this event was prctically a double date and jordan just got back from holidays yesterday so we hadnt seen him in a few weeks.
we sat about on the grand stands for a while to start with becasue it was way to hot. i was suddenly covered i ice cold water, i looked up and jade was holding an empty bucket while jordan had his phone out recording.
"you didnt!"
"hehe i did!!"
"haha you guys are weird as shit!"
"and so are you jenny" jade screamed whilst throwing the bucket at me.
all i remember was stitting on Q's lap with my head leaning against his shoulder, i must have fallen asleep. i checked the time and it was only 12 so i wasnt out for to long. i then looked over at Q who was standing a few meters away trying to hide his laughter.
"you had something to do with this didnt you?" i said with a smirk.
"haha, maybe.... bahahaha!!"
"oh you little shit!" i half whispered while chasing him around the grandstand.
a couple minutes later was walked up to the shop for lunch, now, some normal person would buy a burger or someting right. but we were anything but normal. we ended up buying 3 litres of choc mint icecream, a strawberry chesescake, doritos and salsa, fanta, coke, chocolate and plastic cutlery ( which we didnt use..)
we went across the road to the pavillion and spread out the food. first we all got a cup of softdrink and a slice of cake. we then started to eat the icecream. then started eating the dortios and salsa, half of which was over our bodies after a fight. jade and i had some more icecream but the spoons kept breaking so i punched the icecream and had an idea. in a few minutes we all had a huge chunk of icecream i our hands and melting down our arms. the same thing happened with the cheesecake.
we were still hungry considering half the food was on the florr or on our clothes so we went to dans diner and got hotchips and gravy. while eating them we played would you rather. again, any normal person would say something like 'would you rather choclate or strawberry icecream'. again, not us.
"would you rather lick and old mans balls or fail all your assessments?" jade asked jordan while laughing her head off
"i would have to go with the old man... haha" he laughed.
after lunch we went to the park and started swinging on the swings and climbing on stuff. i climbed to the top of the fort and Q went down the slide. whereas, jade and jordan were sitting on the swings making out, i cnat blame them, they havent seen eachother for weeks, but really?
we got the idea so Q and i left the park and went for a walk. by this time it was 3:54pm. not much of the day was left so we had to make the most of it. we started walkin up to the biggest hill in town, it was a great lookout spot. whilst walking we were talkign about the year to come.
"i cant wait for next year! we will finally be seniors." i said grabbing his hand, our fingers interlacing.
"haha... yeah"
"you okay? is there somethign wrong?"
"no, im fine, jenny, dont worry about me." he said with a smile
"But thats my job!!" i exclaimed
"well, i was going to wait till next year to tell you this, but..."
"but what?!" i said, blinking to keep a few stray tears in.
"i wont be going to school with you next year. im moving"
".... what..." i whispered.
i couldnt stop myself, tears immediately started steaming down my face. i pushed his hand away, turned and walked in the other direction. nearly running.
"Wait, JENNY!!!" he yelled from behind.
i wasnt interested in what anyone had to say at that point. i heard his footsteps fast and catching up to me, he was running. i started running even faster but it wasnt enough. he caught up and grabbed my forearm.
"jenny wait let me explain!"
"NO!"
i ripped my arm free and started running again. not looking back for even a second. i stopped hearing his steps so iassumed he had stopped chasing me and finally given up.
when i got home i went straight to my room, turned off the light and fell on my bed. hoping for anything to hold i opened my closet and got my teddy, he always helped me get through tough times. i held him in silence curled up in a ball on my bed in the dark, completely oblivious to the rest of the world.
i got a call and didnt answer, i wasnt going to talk to anyone. it rung out and sure enough it was Q's voice coming from the answering machine.
"jenny just let me explain this to you. just pick up or call me, or something.... please."
i didnt though. I wasnt angry at him. i was angry at myself. you sure know how to fucking pick em dont you. all my friends either moved away from me or were always away from me to start with. it wasnt fair, i wanted this to be different, i wanted it to be right. but nothing ever goes right for me. not my far away friends. not my torn apart family. not even my perfect boyfriend.
i got more and more calls from Q, still i refused to answer the phone. i wouldnt even answer a call from alice at this point....
