Unique

Chapter 4

*** Just as a bonus when you are at the sex scene play this song. "Earned It by The Weekend" It's the song I was hearing when I wrote the sex scene. I like how in the beginning its start slow and sweat and then it just takes off from there. The lyrics are more from John's perspective (I think).

"John please pick up the phone. I just want you to give me a chance to explain that's all I am asking. Please John call me back when you get this" I say as I flip my phone down. It has been two days since the party and John has been avoiding me.

"What the hell is his problem" Monica says while taking a bite of her pizza. "HE did admit that he loved you. So what the hell? Is he going to bail every time there is some competition?" I really hate to admit it but Monica is right. If John loves me then he could at least give me the chance to explain what happen with Jake. Somehow I get the feeling that John just said he loves me but doesn't truly feel the emotion towards me. Could John still be in love with Sabrina? I quickly brush that question aside and look at the time. I told Monica to meet me after my class and got up to walk towards my afternoon class. I walked into the building and stop dead on my tracks as someone called my name. "Hey Alex wait up" Jakes voice echoed down the hall.

I wanted to keep walking and pretended I didn't hear Jake but I didn't move. Jake caught up with me and I couldn't help but check him out. Jake had a white plain shirt that showed off his muscles with jeans and some shoes. His black hair pointed up in the middle and forward. His sideburns along with his strong jaw line added a rugged but yet classy quality to Jake. I also notice that he was just carrying a notebook and a pen in between his right ear and the side of his head. Jake jogged up to me with a smile, god I missed his smile, and stop a bit to close in front of me.

"Hey was wondering when I get to see you. Are you going to the nutrition class?" Jakes manly voice and smile almost made me blush. I just nodded my head and smiled I just didn't know what to say to this very hot man in front of me. "You want to walk with me there?" Jake's voice almost sounded seductive. I didn't know why but I was on the brink of saying 'yes' until someone popped into my head. John was that someone and even though he has avoided me I know he wouldn't like me walking with Jake.

"I can't" I say almost in a whisper and I know Jake heard me because his smile disappeared. "Jake what part of I got over you didn't you understand?" I say holding my ground and turning my emotions to a controllable anger. "You walked out on me Jake. You practically tore me down to my core. Now that I am starting to feel like my old self again you come along" my voice wasn't angry but serious. I needed Jake to understand and remind him why he can't win me back. "I have forgiven you Jake believe me I have. But you hurt me in a way that I can't see you as I once did" I started to walk around him but stopped when I was next to Jake. "I am sorry Jake but a friend is as far as we can go. Period"

I walked towards my class alone never looking back even though I could feel Jake's blue eyes on me. I walk in and to my surprise John is at his desk but doesn't look at me. I sit next to Matt whose black eye is starting to fade. My black eye is almost gone however on the other hand I used Monica's makeup to cover it up. Jake walked into the class room and was assigned the table across from me. Throughout the class I could feel Jake's eyes on me. To tell you the truth I wanted to feel John's eyes on me but I guess he still doesn't want to talk to me.

It was around late afternoon when the football team was practicing and we trainers were going over our emergency plans. I was getting a cold cup of Gatorade when "Hey can I talk to you" Jakes voice was gentle. My heart melted but quickly once again turned it into control anger. "Listen I just want to tell you that..." Jake begins but I just cut him off. "Don't. Just don't Jake please. You can try all you want but the answer is still going to be the same" I then chugged down my cold drink and walked away.
