Our Little Secret

14. Jaxon's Being Jerkier Than Usual And Chris Might Murder Him

The next day I went to school and Jaxon was acting funny. He was talking to his friends and acting like he used to but without almost any interaction with me.

"Hey what's the deal?" I questioned.

"Huh what?" He asked.

"You haven't talked to me and it's lunch!" I said.

"Oh uh sorry." He said nervously.

"Well yeah I get you want to talk to your friends but at least say hi to your girlfriend!" I told him and his eyes widened.

"Girlfriend!" He exclaimed.

"Are you brain dead?" I asked.

"Just a little," he laughed lightly. He sounded strange. His laugh was less weird and exaggerated and his voice seemed deeper but he looked like the same old Jaxon.

"Don't tell me you've completely forgotten about our secret relationship, Timmy, and my crazy mother." I said putting my hand on his shoulder as he tensed.

"What the heck is wrong with you!?" I asked.

"Sorry," he muttered. I sighed and looked at him. His hair was gelled, his posture was perfect, and he didn't look like a slacker. The only problem was that he looked like he was lost.

"Why are you so dressed up today?" I asked questioningly.

"I'm not," he answered plainly.

"I can't even convince you to brush your hair let alone gel it," I told him accusingly.

"Just leave me alone," he said walking away and it hit me hard. What was that? Did something happen between us. There wasn't. That made me mad at that punk, loser, slacker, jerk. So I did the only reasonable thing a girl fighting with her boyfriend could do. I poured milk all over his head. Not just milk but CHOCOLATE milk and he was wearing a white T-Shirt.

"What was that for!?" He yelled angrily.

"Stop being such a dang jerk bag!" I told him.

"A what?" He said.

"Whatever this is isn't the Jaxon I know and I don't like this one," I said walking away.

On my way out I ran into Rick of all people, anger still evident on my face.

"Trouble in paradise?" He questioned slyly.

"Stay the heck away from me," I told him angrily. I had just ran out of the cafeteria and nobody was out there to help me. He cornered me and closed in on me.

"Tell your loser boyfriend that I'm coming after him," he warned and left in a haste. I ran quickly to the lobby of our highschool to find one of my friends. Instead I ran into Jessica, Jaxon's older sister.

"Sorry about that," I said backing away.

"Oh my god your my little brother's girlfriend!" She squealed. I blushed red.

"Shhh I didn't know he told you," I said.

"He tells me everything," she said triumphantly. "If he doesn't I tackle him and make him mad," she said with a smile.

"Well your brother is being quite a jerk today," I said rolling my eyes. She looked puzzled and didn't understand what I said.

"But Jaxon isn't here today," she said confusing me.

"Well he's here and he's acting like a totally different person," I said. "Better groomed but not Jaxon." Her eyes widened.

"Oh crap," she muttered. "Where's the last place you saw him?" She asked.
