No One Else Will Have Me Like You Do.

04.

"Zoey, I can't take it anymore! Should I just start talking to him? Should I become friends with him? I don't know if I should or not, I could really use your opinion." Biting my nail waiting for Zoey's answer, I couldn't help but fidget on my bed. My leg was bouncing up and down on my bent knee in the air, and I couldn't sit still.

I kept contemplating on Jack and I's little encounter in the gym only a week ago. I tried my hardest to stay out Jack's way, I tried to be a ghost in his eyes, which worked. I became invisible to him once again, this time it was my choice, it was what I wanted. What I needed for a little bit to consider my possibilities with what could happen. With what I didn't want to happen, but you should always try something at least once in your lifetime.

...right?

"Chase, I think you already know what my answer will be." I let out a loud sigh, knowing full aware what her answer was. "You already know it's yes. I don't even know why you had to ask Chasey. I told you this at Olive Garden like two weeks ago, where Jack works.. Remember?" Mumbling a few incoherent curse words under my breath, I heard Zoey let out a little chuckle and said her goodbye.

Tomorrow, I will confront Jack and try my hardest to be civil with him.

I hope this isn't the biggest mistake I make in my life.

"Chase, why are you already up? Usually I have to get your fat ass out of bed.." Looking up from the homework I forgot to do last night, I stared into Morgan's bright green eyes, and smiled in his direction.

"I forgot to do my homework, plus I couldn't really sleep last night. Actually, I was to nervous to get any sleep really..." I thought for a second, and realized the mistake I just made when I saw Morgan's eyebrows raise up.

"Nervous? For what?" He asked, pulling out the newspaper and turning to the sports section. He placed the opened newspaper onto the kitchen counter, and looked at me waiting for my answer.

Lie. What could I lie about? "I have this stupid English presentation today. You know how I fail at public speaking." Letting out a small nervous chuckle, I hoped he would believe my obvious and sort of truthful lie. I did fail miserably at public speaking, I would always choke and forget what to say. But I let out a sigh of relief when he smiled and picked the sports paper back up.

"Well, I'll see you after school Morgs." Putting my Trig and Psychology homework back into my bag, I walked out the front door and towards my car parked in the driveway.

Feeling the butterflies start to flutter around in my stomach, I tried to push away my nauseous feeling. I absolutely hated feeling vulnerable, and I hated feeling the way I did now. The way my hands were shaking on the steering wheel as I turned corners. The way my mind kept wandering from topic to topic, and to what could happen today. Scenarios kept playing over and over in my mind, scenarios that I sort of liked to a point, and some that I disliked entirely. And I especially hated the way my heart kept skipping a beat as I neared the school.

Parking in the spot where I always did, right near the front entrance, I took a deep breath and let it out slowly before getting out of the car. "You can do this Chase.." I whispered to myself, as I entered the crowded English hallway. I could see Zoey's head a few feet in front of me, but I decided not to call her name, I needed to think things through before actually going ahead and doing something I would regret later.

Which I know for certainty that I will.

As I reached my locker right near the door Zoey had disappeared into, also known as English class to some people, I could still hear a few students in the hallway before the bell rang. I was to busy pulling books out of my bag and placing them into my locker to hear the silent footsteps behind me.

Seeing a hand reach in front of my face and block my view of sight, and another hand wrap around my waist, I panicked and tried to get out of the grip. "Guess who!" I heard the person call out, and instantly relaxed into him when I heard his voice.

Relaxed? What the fuck is wrong with me! "Jack! Get your damn hands off of me!"

"Damn Chase, chill out. It was just a tiny joke.. Wasn't like I was going to grab your totally good goodies, which by the way, I totally wouldn't mind doing..." I rolled my eyes while he showed off his goofy smile, which in return I couldn't help but feel the corner of my lips slightly curl up.

Hearing the bell ring, I had an internal battle going on inside my head. Go to class? Or skip the whole day of class? While I was to busy drowning inside my thoughts, I hadn't realized that Jack had said something, and started to walk away from where I now stood alone.

Biting my lip, I ran passed my English class and towards where Jack had just turned the corner. I saw him turning the knob on his locker, and I tried my hardest to be quiet and sneak up on him, like he had just done to me only a few moments ago.

As soon as he opened his locker, I got on my tippy toes and snaked my hands around his waist and in front of his now widened eyes. "Guess who." I whispered into his ear, which turned into laughter as he removed my hands and stared in disbelief into my eyes. It looked like he couldn't believe that I had just done that to him.

Typical.

Rolling my eyes once again, I couldn't help but keep a small smile on my face. "Want to skip today with me?" I questioned him, but before he could answer my question I started to walk away and towards the door which lead to my car.

I smirked when I heard his running footsteps behind me.
