Dark Eyed Dreamers

Jasey Rae POV

I tried to ignore Jack, but it was too hard. He was always there, glaring at me. There was a bruise shaped like my hand on his cheek. I had to apologize to Zayden.

"Zayden, listen. I'm sorry. I thought going out with you would help me get over Jack, but it only made things worse. And for that reason, I think we should break up." I said quietly.

"Fine." he mumbled.

"Can we be friends?" I asked hopefully.

"I'd like that." he grinned, finally looking at me.

"JASEY RAE!!!" Zayden, Rick, and Zach screamed, running towards me at my locker.

"What is it?" I groaned.

"We're playing at the Towson Center Sunday at five o'clock!" they yelled.

"That's great!" I exclaimed, hugging them.

"And you'll be coming?" Zach asked.

"Of course!" I grinned. Jack walked by.

"Jasey Rae." he said coldly, nodding in my direction.I waved.

It was Sunday and two o'clock. I was at the Towson center, three hours early.

"JASEY RAE!" Rick yelled, running towards me.

"What now?" I exclaimed.

"I need help!" he whined, sticking out his bottom lip.

"With what?" I laughed.

"I don't know what to wear!" he complained hopelessly.

"Fine!" I sighed and let him pull me out.

"Hey, I'll be right back." he said when we got into the lounge.

I plopped down on the couch and he walked out, closing the door. It clicked and locked. I ran to the door.

"RICK!!! LET ME OUT!!! NOW!!!" I screamed, banging on the door.

"Jasey Rae?" Alicia asked.

"Ali? What are you doing here?" I asked.

"The guys made me. Besides, I couldn't stand to see you sad." she explained from the other side of the door.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"Look behind you." she said.

I turned and saw Jack. He walked out of the bathroom with just a towel around his waist and damp hair.

"Talk to him!" she hissed.

"Hi Jase." Jack said, giving me a little wave

OH. SHIT.
