Jake's Ignorance

NSFW WARNING! THIS CHAPTER MAY INCLUDE SENSITIVE TOPICS!

Ally's POV

Kaden, Raven and I were leaving Florida early. We still had another week and a half but it was for the best for us to go home. It's been a few days since we found out about Albert's... death. When we got home that day, Kirsten, Raven, Diana and I talked about it and we thought a few of us should go early. We booked our flights that day and today Kaden, Raven and I are going home while Jake and Diana stay a little longer because of Albert's case.

It was getting pretty dark out. My flight was supposed to be taking off at 11:30 at night. It was 8 o'clock in the evening already so I was already packed and ready to go. Alicia, Diana, Raven, Kirsten and I were in our room hanging out for one last time together as a group.

"I still don't know how we crammed 5 girls in this room." said Alicia. "At least we're not awkward... like some men." I said. "Not all men are awkward though." said Diana. "Yeah, I know. I was talking about two men in particular." I said looking the other way. "Who?" asked Diana. "Kaden and Jake." I stated. "Kaden and Jake?" asked Raven.

"Yeah, they're awkward." I said.

"No they aren't. They seem to be getting along pretty well. Better than last time." said Kirsten. "Well, not really. Kaden has been telling me that Jake has been avoiding him." said Raven. "He's been avoiding me too." said Diana. "He's avoiding me. I yelled at him over something and he probably didn't like that." I said. "Jake is just running away from all his problems and he's not saying or doing anything about them." said Kirsten.

"He's probably sad or overwhelmed, give the man a break." said Alicia. "Sad? Yeah, I think not. You wouldn't understand the things he has done." I said. "I'm still very confused about what you guys are talking about. From what I know, he's not done anything wrong." said Diana.

Kirsten and I made eye contact and she quickly looked the other way. She pushed her hair back and she sighed.

"So... he has not said anything to you?" I asked. "No?" said Diana. "My god... I'm gonna hurt a bitch before I go! I'll be right back!" I said before I stormed out of the room.

Jake's POV

You're not dead... YOU CAN'T BE. Albert... I love you... I never said that enough. I wish you were here. I wish I could hug you and hold your hand and...

I never appreciated you enough...

Looking through pictures of Albert was not a good way to cope with how I felt. Just seeing his face... his sweet and beautiful face... Seeing him alive... by my side every once in a while...

My eyes were puffy and my face was wet from crying. I heard the doorknob turn and I quickly wiped my tears away and I threw my phone off to the side. Kaden came in the room and he layed down next to me.

"Hello." he said. "What?" I asked. "How are you? You have not spoken to me today." said Kaden. I didn't answer him. "Did I do something?" he asked. "No, I did." I mumbled. "I'm sorry." he said.

I sat up and I hugged my knees. Kaden sat up and he looked up at me.

"Jake, if things ever get weird between us, I'm sorry."

"I ruined it, not you. Why would you be the problem? I should be sorry." I said. "I still went with it though. I thought it was okay when it clearly wasn't. It just felt so right and I didn't think about Raven or anything that was going on." said Kaden.

"You did help me get through some of the problems. I would've gone insane without you." I said. "You helped me too. I think you're a really sweet guy but we really can't keep this up much longer." said Kaden.
