The guy who never shuts up: Jake

Why.

Why?

WHY?!

Today was supposed to be alright. It was supposed to be decent, chill. Good, even.

But nOoOoOoOoo, of course the world doesn't work like that.

I usually hate the thought of a school camping trip, but for the first time, I thought it could be relaxing. I could just sit by myself, mind my own business, and people would ignore my introverted ass.

Things never work according to my plans though.

Today I got up at exactly seven a.m, got ready, ate a bowl of slightly soggy cereal, then made my way to the school entrance, where my class was supposed to meet so that we could take the bus to the middle of fucking nowhere.

I was okay so far. The sun was shining, I got to wear my favorite t-shirt, and I felt good.

I stood in a random corner watching my classmates show up, waiting for something to happen.

"ATTENTION CLASS" my unbelievably agressive teacher yelled, startling me, like he always does.

"EVERYONE GATHER TOGETHER, AND DO IT FAST"

I practically sprinted to where he was standing, not wanting to be murdered.

"FASTER, YOU SLUGS. WHAT PART OF 'DO IT FAST' DID YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?"

He just kept going until we were all awkwardly gathered in front of him.

"FINALLY. NOW, I'LL SET YOU UP IN PAIRS. THE PERSON YOU GET PAIRED WITH, YOU WILL NOT ONLY HAVE TO SHARE A TENT WITH DURING THE TRIP, BUT YOU WILL ALSO BE SITTING WITH THEM ON THE BUS"

And I thought:

Shit.

This cannot be good. That has never turned out good.

Okay, stop it. Positive thoughts.

Positive thoughts.

He started pairing up my classmates, and right off the bat, it wasn't going well.

Practically everyone was complaining about who they were getting, which was definitely not making me hopeful.

After a while, it was my turn.

"Y/N"

I was nervous, would this ruin my trip?

"AND JAKE"

Yep. Would definitely ruin my trip.

Now here I am, sitting in an old and dirty school bus, with a fly constantly by my ear.

The fly, also known as Jake Sim.

"This trip is going to be so awesome. We can check out the woods and all the wild life. You think we could find a bear? Woah, that would be so cool. I've always wanted to pet a bear"

With the amount of times I've rolled my eyes in the past ten minutes, you'd think they'd end up getting stuck at the back of my head.

The fact that he hasn't even noticed it says a lot.

"My dad always tells me that I should never under any circumstance approach a bear, but I never really understood why. Bears are like, adorable, you know?"

My God- does he ever shut up? Like, EVER?

I keep having to fight the urge to take something and shove it up his huge ass mouth, anything to get him to shut up.
