Jack

“So…hi.â€? Jack said, sitting down next to me. Kill me now.

“Hi.â€? I replied.

“I’ll be back.â€? Trey interrupted, but I knew he wouldn’t be…for a while.

“So, I’m Jack Tilton. What’s up?â€?

“Why did Trey set us up? I don’t know you.â€? I gave up on being polite.

“Because I’ve always wanted to do this.â€? He leaned in suddenly, grabbing my face and kissing me full-on. I tried to push him away, but he clutched my neck, making escape impossible. So I just waited till he was done. When he pulled away smiling, I slapped him hard.

“Why did you do that? Asshole, get away from me!â€? I screamed, wiping my mouth. Then I realized the truth. “Your ex-girlfriend is here I bet! And Trey set us up so you could get revenge. Well … I think you should take your idiotic, ego self and change your name to Jackass.â€?

I had my chance to just rush out the door, but I was thinking the whole time: Melissa was right.

Too bad she wasn’t right about everything because Trey followed me outside, calling my name.
