[ Jessica's' POV ]

I wake up to someone's soft snoring. My eyes immediately widen, when I realize that I'm in Jason's room. I exhale and my eyes wander to his golden watch, which is laying on his nightstand beside me. It reads nine PM and I jump on the floor.

Shit, I promised mom I'd help move all our stuff to Ella's today. I feel Jason stirring and I look next to me, where I see him narrowing his eyes at me.

"What are you doing here?" I roll my eyes at his stupidity and mumble. "Well, you brought me here after the party yesterday. Isn't that obvious?" I don't even know why I'm dating this annoying piece of crap, sure he's good looking and is amazing in bed, but he isn't really boyfriend material, since I know that he's hooking up with half the school behind my back.

 I was so heartbroken when we moved to Brooklyn. I had to leave Jack in LA, who I considered my soulmate, so I just clung onto the first hot boy I saw, not even caring about his personality. Of course, Jack and I could try a far distance relationship, but we both hate the idea of dating someone you're not able to touch and hold. 

Jason breaks my thoughts of Jack by sighing. "Why did we even go to that party yesterday? I have a fucking headache." He's so annoying.

"And you're already too late for school," I quickly add as I hear him growl and bend down to grab my clothes, which are scattered over his carpeted floor.

"I'm going home, you probably won't be attending school today?" I ask him, but I already know the answer. Jason doesn't even reply, he just rolls on his side and puts his pillow over his head.

"Goodbye to you too," I mutter and pull on my clothes, hurrying out of his room. 

[ Anna's POV ]

I put my earphones in my ears as I jog down the street and enjoy the blasting music.

The music is way too loud and I know for sure that my ears will hurt after this, but I can't hear what's going on in my mind when my music is this loud and I need that for now.

Chris didn't pick me up at all and I'm jogging, more like stomping, my way to school. And to top all of that, I'm obviously too late for school.

I waited fifteen minutes on my porch, before I just decided he wasn't going to show up. He said he'd pick me up today, but he didn't. This is just a small thing, but it's one of the things that I don't like about him.

He promises something and then just forgets about it. How does he expect me to trust him if he can't even remember something he promised? I'm so lost in my thoughts that I don't even realize I'm almost at school. I get snapped out of it when I walk into something. More like someone. 

"Oh, I'm sorry!" I apologize and look up at the person. "Jason? You're also too late?" I giggle, before mentally slapping myself for that stupid sound and take out my earbuds. This is incredibly awkward. The last time we had a conversation, I was crying my eyes out and he was trying to fix the thing we called 'a relationship'. And that was before we just started ignoring each other completely.

"Yeah," Jason smiles at me. He still has a soft spot for me, I know he has. Despite all the rumors I hear about him being a player with no feelings whatsoever. "You should really turn down your music, I can hear it from here." 

"I just don't want to hear my own thoughts, you know," I grin. "I'd rather hear Justin Bieber sing."

He laughs and his eyes crinkle, something I used to adore. "We should hang out again, I miss you and your humor." I look at him and study his face, he looks concentrated at me with that small smile on his lips. "Yeah, why not," I smile back and completely forget Chris pleas to stay away from him. But who cares, we are just being friendly. And Chris is not here anyway.

"Let's go inside before Mr. Adkins flips a shit," Jason puts his hand on my back and pushes me a little.

Shit, I curse at the stupid feeling in my stomach. I'm with Chris and those hella annoying butterflies I'm feeling now need to back off before I begin acting on it.

Jason cheated on me, it happened and I can't forgive him for that. Oh you can and you already have, look at his face, don't you want to kiss it? My stubborn and evil conscious reminds me. I mentally sigh and prepare for a long day to come.

Jason knocks on the door, before we enter the science lab. 

"Great that you two decided to join us today," the teacher raises his eyebrow. "Can I hear the good excuse you made up?" I look at Jason, hoping he has a good excuse. I know Mr. Adkins is allergic to students being late and he sends everyone to the principal.  

"Ah, there's no excuse this time," Jason winks. "This is completely my fault. I kinda kept her busy, if you know what I mean." I feel the redness creeping up my cheeks as I hear my classmates snicker. This isn't really the excuse I hoped he'd come up with, but it's better than the truth I guess. 

"Oh, dear God," Mr. Adkins rolls his eyes and mentions for us to sit. I quickly slip on a chair and whisper, "thank you" to Jason before getting out my books, looking around the room.

I see a few soccer guys Chris has been hanging out with looking at me and pray to God they won't say anything about this. But judging by the looks on their faces, I know without a doubt they will.

I let out a loud breath and focus on Mr. Adkins talking about something I don't understand, but I can feel Jason stare at me. He really needs to stop and if he doesn't, I'm scared I'll fall under his spell again.
