You're My Forever

Not Too Bad | 41

Next Thursday...(Ema's P.O.V)

From what Lucas has been telling me, the past week and a couple days, him and Roni have been getting 'closer and closer', for all she knows at least... And he did tell me that she told him she has a boyfriend. But it didn't matter whether she told him that or not. They just could never meet because then Jack would never let Roni hang out with Lucas. 

But still, they had to get closer than how close they were now. The more close they were, the more broken she'd be when everything blew up. And I had a plan to get them closer than they already were. School wasn't enough.

I had to text Lucas now since the only class he had with Roni was first period. 

Ema: Luke, you have a new job.

Lucas: Of course I do.. What is it?

Ema: Ask her to hang out today after school. But don't make it seem like you have a crush on her, remember you're only supposed to be her best friend right now. So take her somewhere public.

Lucas: Are you freaking kidding me? I had plans with the guys today! I don't even like her, she's literally NOTHING like me!

Ema: You will do as I say Lucas! I gave you $200! Besides, use the thought of Jack being heartbroken to keep you inspired.

Lucas: Ugh fine! 

Alright, now that I got that over with, I got up and got ready for school. 

Veronica's P.O.V... 

I got out of bed and went to my closet to get dressed. I put on a white cropped tank top with a green windbreaker over it and black ripped jeans. I left my hair down, brushed my teeth, then went to school. 

I went up to my first period class and sat at my regular seat like usual. Lucas showed up about a minute later and sat beside me again. We both smiled as we greeted each other happily. 

"So.. here's a wild idea. How about we hang out after school today? We can go.. bowling." He asked me happily. That sounded really fun and I would've loved to but.. I felt like it'd be best for me to ask Jack if he was ok with that first. We were dating now so there must've been some boundaries he had not matter how much he trusted me. 

"Yeah, I'd definitely love to! But.. I think I should check with Jack first." I answered. I did tell Lucas that I had a boyfriend and I told him his name but that was about it. And as far as I knew, neither of them knew each other. "Makes sense. Just text me later then and let me know." He told me with a smile. "For sure." I smiled as well.

Lunch... 

After finishing at my locker, I went to the cafeteria. I found Shayna and Jeremy sitting beside each other at a table. So, I walked up to them. I greeted them happily as I sat across from them. 

Coltin showed up a minute later and sat beside Shayna. And then another minute later, Jack Showed up. He pecked my lips as he sat beside me. I decided to just ask him now since the other three were already having a conversation. 

"Jack," I said, turning to him a bit in my seat. He turned to me as well, a cute smile on his face. "Lucas wants to hang out after school today.. I thought it'd be best for me to ask you before saying anything.." I told him. 

"Who's Lucas?" I heard Coltin ask. I looked at him and noticed all three of them were looking at us. "A friend I made in my first period class. Jeremy, he's the one I've been sitting with." I told them with a smile. I told them a tiny bit more about him before turning back to Jack. They continued on with their conversation as well.
