Jasmine P.O.V.

Zach fell asleep on my lap, and I played with his hair while scrolling through Instagram. I kept getting hate notifications, but I just blocked it out of my mind. I was still upset about Kay, because I didn't know what she was planning to do. What if she spread rumors about me? What if she made me cheat on Zach? Vise-versa? I was kinda scared.

Usually stuff like this didn't bother, because I try to keep my tough side on the out, and my emotional side on the in. It does help, but sometimes I just want to break down...

Zach moved around on my lap, and there was a small little dot of drool on my pants. I laughed softly, then, for some odd reason, I silently sobbed. 

I sobbed because I loved Zach. Because I didn't want Kay to try to break us apart. Because I was scared she might try something to hurt us. Because she might get someone to hurt me! At this point, I was bawling my eyes out, and suddenly, I started breathing really hard.

Oh no....panic attack....

Zach P.O.V.

I started moving around, and I felt Jasmine breathing hard. Was she okay?? I jolted upward, and she had her hands on her chest, and she was sputtering up and down, while crying.

"Jasmine, it's okay," I said, putting my arms around her. "I promise you'll be okay."

She kept holding her hand to her chest, still breathing hard, so I quickly went to get her some water. When I cam back, she was still in the same position.

"Z-Zach, w-w-water..."

I rushed over to her with the water, and she drunk it. She started to calm down, and I put my arms around her protectively.

"Remember our first date? It was beautiful. The ocean, the sunset, it was amazing. You looked like an angel, especially in that black bathing suit. Do you know what I think about when I look at the ocean? You. Why? Because you remind me of how perfect it is. The beautiful glow when the sun hits it, the waves, the-"

I looked over at Jasmine, and she was asleep on my shoulder. I smiled at the beautiful angel that was now mine. I kissed her forehead, and I laid my head on her head...

~Time skp to Monday~

Jasmine P.O.V.

"Ughhhh, I don't wanna go to school!" I moaned, knocking myself into Zach's chest.

"I'm gonna be there, so it'll be okay," Zach said with a smirk, and I rolled my eyes.

"Yeah, but I don't have any girl friends, cause I'm damn sure not going back to Emily and Shayla!" I whined, and Corbyn patted my back.

"I can relate," Corbyn said, and the boys glared at him. I giggled, and Corbyn laughed.

Once the Zach finally finished re-doing his hair for the 100th time, we piled into Corbyn's car. Too bad Gabbie and Christina went to a different school, and Tate is in another state. We got out, and I held Zach's hand.

"Ready?" Zach asked, and I smiled and nodded.

As we walked, people were giving me dirty looks. I just shrugged, and gave all my attention to Zach. We stopped at my locker, and Zach kissed my hand before leaving.

"See you in third period?" He asked, and I nodded.

As I was getting my stuff out of my locker, I noticed Emily on the other side. Her locker is one away from mine, so it was hard not to notice her. I glanced at her, and I noticed she was shaking while taking her books out. I looked away when she saw me looking, and she walked away, her hair bouncing behind her. Then something terrible happened, as the hallway was clearing out.

Michael Spencer grabbed Emily aggressively and held her hand.

Okay, that's new. But that's also bad, because Emily is gonna end up like...me! I wish there was some kind of way I could warn her or something, but I didn't talk to the girl anymore. And plus, I would have to wait and see how he was treating her. Maybe he actually liked Emily, and he was just like that with me.

Lunchtime

"Ugh, there is no more apple juice left!" I groaned, sliding into the table next to Zach. 

"Dang it," Daniel said.

"So guys, have you heard?" I asked, biting into my PB-J.

"Heard what?" Corbyn asked, sipping his water.

"Emily and Michael are dating."

"Wow, that sucks for her," Jonah said, shaking his head.

All of a sudden, a big group crowded around a table.

"So Emily, you want to tell everybody what you did?" Michael hollered from across the cafeteria.

"Oh no," I mumbled, as me and they boys went to see what was going on.

As we got closer, Emily had tears streaming down her face as Michael was smirking and holding up her phone.
