Tears trickled down my face as I drove home. How could he? I thought he loved me. I can't tell Brandon....he would kill

me. I took out my phone and almost slammed into another car. I mumbled curse words under my breath and dialed her

number.

"Hey girl when you coming over everythings set up!" Danni's voice called out, "Plus my parents are gone for the rest of

the week, and it's winter break so let's party!"

"I caught Jake kissing some chick on his couch." I said firmly, trying not to gain entry of another tear.

".........Okay that's it come over in 20 minutes." She said sounding pissed.

"Why in twenty minutes?" I asked focusing on the road.

"Because I have to run to the store to buy your favorite ice cream! Call me when your on your way over here!" She said

making a "Muah!" kiss sound. I told her sure thing and hung up. But sadly I could no longer stand guard and more tears

rolled down.

When I got home I changed into this:[polyvore] . I wanted to be more comfy, since me and Danni would be just

lounging around. I inspected my outfit, but then realized, I didn't care if I look like crap. Screw it. Screw relationships. Screw

Jake.

"I'm going by Danni's house!" I said. I grabbed my keys and ran out the door, not letting Brandon as me questions. Brandon has been nicer to me and it seems

he's forgot sort of about the 'complication'. I think I even heard him say something about apologizing to Jake. Right when his

name came up in my mind I got a small head ache. At the time I thought it was going to make it difficult, them being best

friends again, but now, it doesn't really matter does it?

Danni opened the door and hugged me, a little too tight.

"Mo, I'm so sorry! He's just a stuck up jerk who obviously doesn't deserve you." I had to stay strong when she stared talking

about him. I wasn't gonna get him ruin this night. We walked into her living room: [weheartit] (just pretend The Hunger

Games, was playing there there is no football helmet.) There were scattered pictures of me and Jake on the table, I looked at

Danni, with my confused look. She smiled and pointed at the lighter next to the pictures. Oh Danni. We walked into the

kitchen and got out ice cream and she already got the pizza. We got back and looked at our goodies. [polyvore] , I'm not sure

how she has The Hunger Games on DVD already but, I'm obsessed with this movie so....YEAH BUDDY!

We talked about what we were going to do tomorrow, maybe mall or Busch Gardens or something. After the movie we

decided to burn the pictures. We went outside, I held the lighter and she held the pictures. I started to sing "Picture To Burn"

just trying to be cheesey as we set the first photo of me and him kissing to flames. Danni started to sing along, we both are in

the school's chorus class, but we are the quiet ones in the back. We sang the whole song and burned the rest in silence.

We stomped on the pictures to make sure the flames were really out. Then it started to pour. Danni took the lighter and

turned it on holding it up high,

"I SET FI-I-RE TO THE RAIN!" She screamed then she poked my cheek, "WATCH IT BURN AS I TOUCH YOUR

FACEEE!" We both laughed and walked inside. Danni is super funny when she wants to be, she kind of reminds me of

Brandon.

I went into her bathroom and slipped on this:[polyvore] . We ran back to the living room and sat on the couch flipping

through channels.

Danni settled on Teen Mom and set the remote to her side. One of the girls started talking about how her boyfriend has a

son and how she couldn't wait to meet his son and how her boyfriend couldn't wait to meet her daughter. For some reason

that reminded me of Jake.

"Dan?" I asked fighting a tear.

"Mhm?" She said turning to me after taking another glance at the TV.

"Is there anything else on?" I said biting my bottom lip. She nodded and flicked on Sponge Bob. We used to watch this

show all the time, before Jake and I started to hangout....

We ended up both falling asleep on the couch, my hair was still a little damp from the rain, so it made it harder for me to

sleep but I managed. Right before I started to fall into dreamland, I came to a realization, I don't need Jake to be happy, and from the looks of it he

sure doesn't need me.
