1.3

I tried my hardest to cover the hickey, well both of them.
Jack left one on my lower neck and on my upper chest.
I don't know how I'm gonna explain this. I don't own makeup so I can't use any foundation or whatever.
Shaking my head, I threw a scarf around my neck and wore a button up shirt and did all the buttons.

I got passed Miranda with them and carried on to school. I'm hoping this isn't going to be a problem at PE, I'm wearing a scarf in 80 degree weather.
On my way to class I ran into Sam. Oh god, I know I can tell him everything but not this.
I adjusted my scarf casually trying to seems normal as he greeted me.
"Hey" he said giving me a hug, the strong scent of his cologne warmed me.
"Hi Sam" I said as he smiled.
"It's a little hot for a scarf don't you think?" he chuckled as I laughed nervously. Still cautiously covering the hickey.
"Come on, lets walk to class" he said and quickly I changed the conversation asking about what he did yesterday while I was gone.
"Nothing much Chloe' I planned to hangout with you but Jack called" he said and I felt bad.
"I'm sorry. I-I should of stayed" If all Jack was really gonna do was give me a hickey.
We got to first period still having a sub, and we sat and talked amoung ourselves when the door opened.
A late Jack walked in a sat next to us.
"Hey" he breathed sitting down and patting my shoulder.
Again with the doggy stuff.
"Hi" I said lowly as Sam starred at him intensely.
"Why the scarf?" Jack asked raising his eyebrows.
I looked at him pleading for him to stop and change the subject but he wouldn't.
"Chloe' its 86 degree's outside, what are you trying to hide?" he said louder catching Sam and almost everyones attention.
"Take the scarf off" he said as I shook my head no.
He chuckled, "Chloe' take it off" he laughed reaching for it and I pushed his hand away slowly. I didn't wanna cause a scene by acting out.
He realized I wasn't gonna fight him back and stopped.
Just as I thought we were done, he snatched my scarf off.
Gasping, I covered my neck with my hand.
"Stop Jack give it back" I said as he shook his head.
"Move your hand chloe' show me and Sam what you got yourself there" he egged on as I began to feel weird.
"Please" I said above a whisper.
"Move your hand let him know what I did" Jack said only loud enough for me and Sam to hear.
Sams eyes got dark and he looked as if he could kill Jack.
Jack pulled my hand back and revealed my purple, reddish hickey formed upon my upper neck.
Instantly I put my hand back but it had already been seen.
"Sam its not-"
He put his hand up shushing me, shaking his head.
He pushed Jack hard in the chest and walked out the door.

I was embarassed, not because Sam and everyone saw it but by the way Jack was acting.
I don't know why he does this.
I sniffled, getting up from the table throwing my back pack over my shoulder.
Jack grabbed my hand, "He had to know Chloe'" he said trying to ease me.
"No he didn't" I said as my face heated and I felt as if I was going to cry.
I walked out of class, running after Sam.
I can't lose a friend I just got.
I felt like I needed Sam back, in a matter of days he became so close to me and too important for me to lose.
"Sam wait" I yelled out to him.
He pushed to school doors open walking out.
"Wait" I yelled catching up to him grabbing his arm.
"Please" I begged.
" Why should I?"
"Your just gonna run back off to Jack anyway Chloe'" he added.
My stomach sunk, knowing and seeing his anger towards me.
"Chloe' you know he's just us-"
"Nevermind" he said.
I wanted to ask him to continue but I knew now wasn't the time and I didn't want him to be any more frustrated with me.
"I'm sorry" I said rubbing my arm.
He looked at me and slightly smiled.
"Come here" he said, pulling me into a hug.
He stood there with me in his arms, rocking back and fourth.
It felt more than friendly to me, something brotherly.
The bell rang, but still he hugged me. He pulled back and looked at me again, "Its okay" he said kissing me cheek and walking away.

Part of me knew Sam was right. I couldn't stay away from Jack. As much as I wanted to, I just couldn't.
He made me feel so different, so unexplainable.
I wasn't going to his house today though, not until this hickey goes away and thats gonna be a week.
I just don't understand, he was so sweet the first day I went with him to his house and now he's a jerk.
I wish he'd just cooperate instead of being an ass all day.
Pretty much there was nothing to do, without Sam and Jack I was just the same person I was without them.
I put my earphone in going through my playlist, picking a list of songs I had labled bored.
The first song, post to be played and I sat at my computer. Singing and playing online games.
*come out tonight*
a text read
* wym? sam* (wym= what you mean)
*go out with me tonight*
*where to?*
I replied
*idk we'll find out on the way just let me take you out*
slowly, I smiled at the text
*sure what time*
*how bout now?*
*alright*
I said back.
*I'll be there in ten*

I smiled turning my music off, running to my closet.
I went through my options, I finally settled on an adidda outfit.

I walked downstairs just as Sam knocked.
I opened the door just as Miranda walked down the stairs.
"Hey" Sam said about to hug me but haulted when he seen Miranda.
"Oh hello" She said walking to the door folding her arms.
"I thought you were Jack" she said as his jaw clenched.
"No ma'am, I'm Sam. Sam Wilkinson" he said putting his hand out.
She smiled taking his hand.
"I'm Miranda, nice to meet you"
"How do you know my daughter?" she asked as I sighed.
"I go to school with her, I'm one of her friends" he smiled as she shook her head.
"Well, I hope you guys have fun" she said walking back upstairs.
I sighed walking out the door closing it behind me.

"Jack?" he questioned as we walked.
"I told you he's been here before" I laughed as he chuckled.

"So where are we going?" I said as he approached a car.
"Sky zone" he said smiling.
"The trampoline place?" I said as he nodded.
"Okay"
+
"Admission for two" he said handing the employee the money.
"How much is it?" I said going through my wallet.
"Free" he said as we walked in.
I looked up at the window and it cost, 25 dollars.
"You did 't have to pay my way" I said as he smiled.
"I wanted to" he grabbed my hand leading me past all the people.
My face warmed as he lead me through the crowd.

We got to the lockers where you can drop off all your belongings.
"Let me pay for a locker" I begged him as he laughed.
"They're only lik 50 cents" I said as he shook his head no and winked at me.
I groaned as be paid for it putting our shoes in the locker along with our phones and my purse.
He took me over to the trampolines, where we began to jump and laugh.
I looked at him smile and laugh. He truly was beautiful.
Sexy as well. He's the same height as Jack.
His smile is so cute, his laugh is such a wonderful sound.

We went on to play dodge ball, and stuff like that.
It made me feel like a kid again, when I was happy.

We stopped jumping and went over to the food station.
"What would you like?" the lady at the register said as he looked at the menu.
"4 slices of pizza and two lemonades" he said as she nodded puttingg the order in.
He paid for the food and we sat down at a small table for two.
"Thank you for coming" he said as he leaned against the table.
"Thank you for inviting me, I had fun" I replied.
Over lunch we talked about our lives and things we did as kids, I honestly had a good time.
I loved hearing about him, even though we talked about our childhoods he never asked about anything bad or why I am how I am.
I think I might like Sam.
