*jack j*

Alyssa giggled as I continued to tell her stories of my adventures at Magcon and after that. She seemed so interested.

Suddenly, Jack burst into the room and her face fell from a cute, giggly smile to her usual hurt, emotionless frown.

"Let's go. My mom caught us. We actually need to go somewhere or I can't go to LA for New Years," Jack grumbled.

"But I-" she piped up.

"Now!" He boomed at the scared girl.

"Bye Jack," she whispered walking out of he door behind him.

Her head hung low again and I couldn't help but to feel bad for her.

I thought Alyssa was lying when she told me that Jack was being a total jerk. Well she didn't tell me, I heard her mumble it. I knew he wasn't excited about her coming but he's really taking it to the extreme and pushing her around like a door mat.

I mean come on. If you just meet him, he's pretty intimidating. Most people think so, well depending what type of person you are.

I wish Jack didn't ruin anything so she could've stayed longer. She seemed happy learning about my life.

Most people around here would just be my friend for fame but she's so different. Alyssa didn't even know who I was and I really liked it that way. I could tell that she was so interested because her whole demeanor changed when she asked me to explain everything.

My mind wondered to what happened when Alyssa freaked out. She seemed so scared. I swear I thought she would strain her voice, she was screaming that loud. Does this happen on a daily basis?

Then it hit me; does she have anxiety?

My heart sunk. Wow. That's awful.

Jack, don't jump to conclusions. Maybe you just freaked her out and she's okay.

She's not okay. No one screams that way for no reason.

I took a deep breathe.

I'll figure this out later, just to back to your friends and you can see her later.

So I got up off of the floor and took one more look at the shattered picture.

"Everything will be okay," I said to myself before walking back down the stairs to the living room where my friends were goofing off.

~^~

Okay, so I'm not going to be posting very often in the next few weeks because I have midterms coming up and my parents are freaks for me studying.

So I'll do the best I can :)
