(Song I'm obsessed with up top^^)

Jacks POV

Do something I like.

What do I like? All I do is listen to music and eat, but that's not good enough. I need to do something we both like but is also fun. I can't go for a walk, the weather is just so cold and. . . just no. How do people do this? 

Uhg. I need new lyrics for my arms. I listen intently as music fills my room with songs from Attila to SayWeCanFly. I settle for my left arm saying;

A cut can not heal 

Unless you leave it alone

And my right one saying

So I'll open mine daily

Leaving bones exposed 

It's from Bones Exposed by Of Mice & Men. I've been hooked on it for a while. But back to the important part; phase two of the plan. I look at the clock which is beaming the time of 10:30pm. I've been thinking about this for over an hour.

I've been thinking about her.

I've over thought things longer, though. I should be proud of my less than two hour time.

A text from Gilinsky drags my attention and I pick up my phone to read it.

Let's go for a walk. Grab a blanket

I type back a simple 'Ok' and grab a thick blanket. I open my window and toss the blanket out first, then I make my way onto the roof, then down the tree. I see Gilinsky at the trunk of the tree with a blanket, watching in amusement as I walk up to him with my blanket.

"Aye there, monkey," he says with a stupid grin. 

I huff. "Shut up," I say. "Now let's go before my mom finds out I'm gone."

We walk away from my house, not going anywhere in particular. Just walking. I wrap the blanket around my body in hopes of warming me up.

"So what did you wanna talk about," I ask, frozen vapor creating a fog of breath from my mouth.

He lights a cigarette before puffing out a cloud of smoke. "Did you figure out what you're gonna do yet?"

I sigh. "No. I have no idea what to do. I'm afraid that if I do something wrong, she'll say no and I'd just fuck everything up. Nothing seems good enough at this point. And I don't want her to say no, Jack. I can't lose her." 

He sighs and takes a drag of his cigar. "Well, there's no way I'm gonna let you lose her, dude. If you do, I will personally kill you," he says and I chuckle. "But that's why I took you here. For inspiration!"

I roll my eyes as we pass under a street lamp. "Well thanks, but I'm not seeing anything very. . . inspirational."

"Well you gotta look, dude! Look, there's a bag, there's. . . a soda can. . . and. . .and a wall?"

I roll my eyes, letting out a light laugh. "Wow, thanks. I can practically feel the inspiration."

"Shut up! I'm trying!" We laugh as we pass under a flickering street light.

I look around as we pass a rock wall covered with dark colored paintings and names, all done by cans of spray paint. I look at the skull I did about a month ago with Gilinsky. That was a good day for me. There's many other things painted too, like a face, some words, and a lot of gang names. But in the end, its all got some meaning behind it. It's what I like about it. Graffiti has so much meaning but people don't realize that. Graffiti is art, not a sin. But then it hit me.

Graffiti.
