*Jack's Pov*

"Matt!" I watched as Olivia ran over to a somewhat familiar boy standing at the edge of the skateboard ramp, giving him a quick hug before making small talk. Oh how I wish he'd fall off.

I had to admit, seeing her give her attention to another guy did make me jealous, but at the same time, I needed to understand the fact that there was an almost nonexistent slim of chance that Liv would want to be romantically associated with me. Get the hell over it, Jack. But I couldn't.

I waited, leaned up against the gate of the skate park, trying to seem as cool as possible when Liv returned from her little chit-chat with "Pretty Boy". I gripped the cold, metal gate in my hand as I turned around, watching Olivia walk towards me. Several guys had their eyes on her, and so, I decided to make them intimidated and hopefully they'd f*ck off.

I pulled Liv towards me, wrapping one hand around her waist and the other on the left side of her face. Before she had any time to react or pull away from me, I brought my lips to hers. I moved my lips on top of hers as Olivia's just stayed limp. She didn't want me doing this, and the worst part was that I wanted this so badly. Her head jerked away and she ripped out of my grip, slightly pushing me forward. I just ruined her first kiss. I kissed Liv and didn't even give her a chance to stop me.

"Sorry, that was out of temptation..." I instantly regretted what I had done as almost everyone's gaze at the skate park was on Liv and I. I f*cking embarrassed her more than anything.

"You shouldn't have done that Jack! I know that you know that kiss meant something..." I had never heard so much hurt nor anger in her voice until now. "Please... I don't want anymore of these mixed signals," she said as her voice was breaking.

"It meant nothing Olivia! You should know me by now. You know that I'm a heartless person and-" Liv cut me off, close to yelling.

"Would you just shut the hell up for a minute?!-"

And then I did it again. I shut her up by forcing her to me and pushing my lips against hers, moving them slowly as she gasped. But this time, she didn't try to get out of my hold. This time the damage had already been done.

"See?! Nothing."

"How? How could you not have felt anything?" Liv's voice broke while she spoke, and with that, the guilt of how much I had hurt her took over and I turned away from her, walking to my car while trying to make myself understand that this was the reason I was a bad person.
"You're a selfish, ignorant coward, Jack!" I heard Liv yell in the distance until she disappeared, running through the crowd of the park.

I always hurt the people I cared the most about, and that's why those that did care for me are gone now.
