Hating You for Loving Me
Please Don't Cry.

*Patrick's POV*
“Aren’t you worried about Pete?” Mel asked me as we sat cuddled on my bed.
“Not all the much. He has been through losses before. His father when he was eight remember?” I told her.
“True, but maybe it’s different. I’m sure Pete loves JJ more then he did his father, but then again I may be wrong.” She said.
“Well if he doesn’t talk in two more weeks, then we have to do something.” I said as I kissed her fore head.
“Yea.” She said with a smile.
All of a sudden my cell phone rang.
It read Pete.
“Hey?” I asked into the phone.
“Hi.” He said after a long pause.
“Want to come hang?” I asked him since I knew he had nothing better to do.
“Sure, your house?” He asked me.
“Yep.” I replied.
“I’ll be there in a bit.” Pete said as I heard him get off of his bed.
“Okay.” I replied as I hung up.
I’ve noticed we never really said ‘goodbye’ anymore, weird.
“I guess a little bit was two minutes?” Mel said with a laugh as we heard a knock on my bedroom door.
“Come in Pete!” I yelled.
“Hey.” He said as he came in and closed the door, and then sat on the ground since there was no more room on the bed.
“Hey Pete.” Mel and I said in unison as we sat up.
“What brings you up to talk to us?” I asked him after a while of silence.
“I hate being quiet all the time; you should know that of all people.” Pete said with a smile.
Wow I haven’t seen him smile for a while but it’s always good.
“Yea I should.” I said as I also smiled.
*JJ's POV*
Finally my mom found a school that I would go to.
Starting next week which sucked because I’m going to be the new girl.
More embarrassment and people hating me how grand.
I better call Patrick.
“Hello?” I heard him answer.
“Hey Patty Cake, I’m surprised all of you aren’t hanging out.” I said with a laugh.
“Actually we all are.” I heard Mel say and then Pete and Patrick laugh.
“Hey guys, how are all of you?” I asked as I settled on my bed.
“Great!” They all replied.
“Hey, it’s like all of us together again.” Pete said happily.
“Yes Peter Panda it’s like all of us together again.” I said with a laugh but a sad tone.
“So where are you living now a days?” Mel asked.
“In a house, in San Jose. Pretty cool is you ask me.” I said as I messed with Ritalin.
“Start school yet?” Patrick asked.
“Nope but it starts next week. My mom finally found a school that would take me.” I said with a laugh.
“Finally a school that will take you huh JJ?” Mel asked me as they all laughed.
“God I miss you guys so much.” I said.
“Yea, we miss you too.” Pete said as I heard him get saddened.
“Pete, well everyone, I’ll always be there. I promise, through your good times and through your bad times I’m there.” I said as I felt tears sting my eyes.
Pete certainly noticed that I was going to cry.
“Please don’t cry JJ it just makes it harder for all of us.” Mel said as she too started to break down.
“Look, I have to go. But I love you all. No matter how many times I’ve denied it I do. Bye everyone.” I said as we all exchanged goodbyes and I hung up.
