Today was date-night or what I’m supposed to say. I don’t know how it’s going to feel because we have school before, is it going to be awkward or? I’m so socially awkward and I’m just afraid that wherever he takes me is going to be crowded or that we’ll have one of those awkward silence like 90% of the time.

I was brought out of my thoughts when a car honked from behind me as I was walking on the sidewalk to school. My head turned and I burrowed my eyes in confusion, I couldn’t see the drivers face since the sun was reflection on the front shield of the car. I turned back around and kept walking when the honking of the car was heard again. The car drove up beside me in a slow pace and slowly the car window was rolled down.

As soon as I saw her face I couldn’t help but to roll my eyes at her, she looked enraged.

“Hey bitch!” Serena shouted from inside the car but I just kept walking. I was not going to respond to her name calling. She didn’t deserve it neither did I.

The engine of the car still hummed so I knew she followed me and it was confirmed when she once again opened her mouth and called for me, but I wasn’t having any of it.

My guess was that after 5 minutes of giving her the cold shoulder she got the message and sped off.

I couldn’t keep my mind of the date with Matt, where was he taking me? What were we doing? Would he be romantic or choose something he liked that I probably would find boring? Was this date a trick of some sort? I really wanted some answers but I knew that
I couldn’t get them until after tonight then I would know for sure.

Arriving at school was a bit overwhelming mostly because Jimmy hug me and then slung me over his shoulder, running around with me like that for 10 minutes. Then of course the other guys gave me side hugs while Jacob gave me a real one and whispered in my
ear that we should talk after school.

When I opened my locker a pale yellow envelope flew down on the floor. My eyebrows scrunched up in confusion as I bent down and picked it up. In the process of picking up I got my ass slapped, I made a sharp turn to be met with Jacob’s laughing front.

“Sorry I just had to before Matt owns it” he started laughing once again and it made me feel really irritated.

“What do you mean, before he owns me?” I wondered as I rummaged my locker trying to find right books for the right classes. Before he had the time to explain I shut the locker rather loudly and turned around, Jacob walking by my side.

“You are going out on a date with him tonight, the same night I have my show on the Sting Rock. “ Shoot, I had completely forgotten about that, damn. Jacob had the right to be a bit pissed right now and I frowned at that.

“I’m still seeing the concert” I explained trying to come up with an idea of how to make it there in time. “..but why does he own me?”

He shrugged and answered with a simple “I don’t know, just sounded like the right thing to say.” Except that answer wasn’t easy for me to understand at all.

My eyes rolled to the back of my head and an agitated groan passed my lips, what was up with Jacob? I didn’t have time to think about that now though, it was time for math and
I really needed to catch up on a lot of work. After all I’m not the student with the straight A’s not the student flunking in everything.



As soon as I stepped out of the class room somebody held a vice grip on my arm and dragged me away to the girl’s bathroom. When I finally managed to get my arm out of the deadly I came face to face with a pissed of Serena.

I groaned and inhaled deeply before I spoke up. “What do you want, Serena?”

“I want you to back off of my Matt.” She stated as it was the most normal thing in the world. Seriously, her Matt . That girl is delusional. In the past we had a lot of problems but then she started ignoring me which was completely fine by me until now. I’ve had all this build up anger and hate towards her and now I really didn’t care about the
consequences.

“Seriously, what’s wrong with you? First of all he’s not yours, he’s not property and since when do you care if I hang out with him? Don’t you remember what you called me all these years ago; no wonder your parents left your just a worthless emo who cuts herself or how about the one where I am a prostitute which is why I am acting all shy so nobody gets suspicious? Seriously, Serena grow up.” After my rant I walked outside and slowly glided down a tree thinking.

What the hell just happened? Did I really just stand up for myself against Serena? I just knew she had something bad in store for me but today I really didn’t want to think about it.
My body felt as if it was on cloud nine since I actually stood up for myself and I had two more things to look forward to today.
The date with Matt and somehow, managing to see Jacob singing.

I still felt the nervousness running through my body, I didn’t k now where we were going so what was I supposed to wear? Speaking of the devil I thought as Lexi rushed to me and started talking.

“We need to figure out what you are wearing tonight!” she looked so happy and her blonde hair was curled which made her look really cute I must admit. Jimmy and her shared the same baby blues and possibly were the cutest couple ever.

“Did Matt tell everyone?” I questioned and she shook her head explaining it to me.

Matt had only told Lexi so she could help me with clothes and such. She knew where he was taking me, it was something casual apparently. Well first something ‘cute’ and in Lexi’s own words ‘Unicorn Rainbow cupcake sweet’ then it was something more casual that Matt said t we connected with. Music. The only word I could think of when I heard that. I think we connected through that at least, he started talking to me when he heard me sing.

She told me to meet her after school as soon as I spoke to Jacob to get everything ready. Her being so excited didn’t help my nerves a bit.

Could I really go through with this date? Damn, I really hate myself right now.
