- Jasmine -
After a two hour wait at the hospital latest night, my wrist was put in a bandage because apparently it was just a severe sprain. We'd been forced to eat hospital food, which was like something my grandma would cook, God bless her heart. Toby had been apologising all that time and it'd been getting in my nerves.I'd crashed in Toby's dorm last night and I was only just waking up. The room littered with Nickelback posters was the best thing I could possibly wake up to. I sat up in bed, only in my bra and undies and rubbed my eyes.
"Morning sleepy head." Toby was already dressed by the closet.
I stifled a shriek and pulled the blankets up around me. "What time is it?" I asked.
"It's only 9am."
"Oh crap I'm going to be late for class. I was never late for class when I was at high school. My little brother would come and jump on me to wake me up."
"Your cute when you sleep I just couldn't wake you up." He shrugged.
"You were watching me sleep?!"
"Only for a few minutes."
I threw his pillow at him one handed and missed completely. He laughed "You're going to have to work on your aim."
"Thanks for the tip." I said pulling my jeans on under the covers.
"You free at lunch time?"
"I have to meet Indi in a cafe off campus. Sorry, but I can join you for dinner." I pulled my top over my head and smoothed my hair down.
"Well dinner it is then?"
I got up and grabbed my bag, "Thanks for letting me stay here last night."
"I said this was your safe house, I'm just glad you took me seriously."
"So I'll see you later Toby." I walked out the door and sprinted out of the boys dorms, Straight toward my music class. I grabbed my bass guitar from my locker and joined the class.
I sat across the room from Zoe who kept staring at me with a worried expression. My eyes weren't on her though, I was focusing on the teacher talking about a huge performance and how we had to form a group and pick a song to perform. I already new what song I wanted to do but the group part was bothering me. I walked over to the amplifier and plugged in to start practising.
"Are you just going to ignore me all day?" Zoe asked.
"I'm busy." I muttered.
"Where did you go last night? I was worried about you, we all were."
"I need to practice."
"Then who's in your group? You look rather, alone."
"I have another person but he's not here now."
"Look Jazz, what's going on between you and Corey? You two love each other. And what happened to your wrist?"
"You know what I'm gonna take a portable amplifier and go outside." I got up and unplugged from the big amp and grabbed a little one. Zoe just stared after me looking confused.
I sat down in the court yard and started practising the first line of chords. Indi walked over holding an acoustic guitar and smiling.
"You must be in the other music class, we're allowed to join groups if you want." She smiled.
"Great. I picked a song but I don't know if you want to do it." I sighed.
"What's the song."
"I see fire by Ed Sheeran. I though it would display emotion you know."
"Oh my god! I love that song I can play the cello too. We'd just need someone to play the acoustic guitar then."
" I think I know just the person. Are we still on for lunch?"
"Of course." I lent forward and whispered, "Do you wanna go early we can practice this later when we have our guitarist."
"I thought you'd never ask." Indi jumped up and pulled me up behind her. I put my guitar in its case and picked it up, Indi did the same and we walked toward the secret back gate.
We walked for about fifteen minutes before we came to the little cafe and took our booth in the corner. I ordered a mocha and a muffin and Indi ordered a milkshake and a piece of cake.
"Okay so here's what I found out, it's not pretty and I know it's going to hurt a lot Jasmine but I think you rather know." Indi started.
"No I think you're right I'd rather know."
"Please don't get up and leave either okay?"
"Okay."
"Corey and Gemma kissed." Indi stared at the table looking horrified at herself.
I was silent, that's what Wes has on him but not anymore because I know now. My stomach sank, I'd lost everything for the wrong guy. I put my head in my hands and tried not to cry. I managed to regain some of my composure, "How did you find out?"
"Jasmine I, I payed someone off so they would tell me. I just cared so much about you and I understand if you hate me for being the one to tell you this."
"No I don't hate you. He just always told me that I was the only one. I was the only girl for him, but I guess it serves me right for falling in love with a bad boy."
"The only thing is I don't know if Wes has anything to do with it. He could have forced Corey to do it, I just don't know."
The door swung open and Wes strode in with his gang. Customers in the cafe coward away and avoided eye contact with them. I stared down at my mocha and Indi did the same, heavy footsteps were coming closer.
"I believe your at my table." Wes's voice sounded raspy and evil.
"We were here first sit somewhere else." Indi shrugged.
"Well look what we have here, Corey. I found your girlfriend." Wes sneered.
I looked up and saw Corey standing behind the rest of them he was watching me, his eyes hard and emotionless.
"Do you have anything you want to tell me?" I asked him. Corey stood there for a moment before answering.
"Nothing." He muttered.
"Wrong answer." I said standing and grabbing my bass and bag, Indi did the same and we walked. We didn't stop walking till we were back on campus and neither of us had spoken since inside the cafe.
"Jasmine I'm sorry." Indi broke the dull silence.
" Don't be, you didn't do anything. He would have continued to lie to my face if it wasn't for you. Now about our music performance you have to come and meet our guitarist."

I didn't stay in the cafe after she left, I bailed outside to sit alone. Dylan followed me out though and he didn't look impressed."Dude, what's the matter with you?"
"I can't bare to see her face when she finds out." I answer.
"She's already found out, and it wasn't from you."
"I don't know what to do."
"Well you have to do something you got yourself into this, now you've gotta get yourself out of it. She doesn't deserve this."
"Even if I said sorry she wouldn't except it."
"I can't do this anymore I've tried to help you but you're beyond help. After all she did for you this is how you repay her, heck her brother almost couldn't walk because of you. She almost lost her sight because of you. I'm not going to lie to her or Zoe anymore, you're on your own now." Dylan shook his head and walked away.
He was right though, I'd screwed up again only this time I knew she wasn't coming back. But I'm not just going to let her walk away I'm going to fight for her, I'm going to prove to her that I'm the guy she met last year. I just made a really stupid decision under pressure.
Look out Jasmine your about to get swept off your feet.
