Okay, so now that I went over the first chapter, I realized that when I put in ***** to change POVs to another person, the stars didn't show up, it just missed a line. From now on, if I miss a line, it's changing POVs, hopefully it's not that confusing!
*JACK'S POV*
"Uh huh," I say absent-mindedly to Kristen, as she droned on about some friend that had told her that her neighbour was getting married. It wasn't really all that interesting.
"So, Kelly said that it wasn't fair, and that she wanted to get married, and then Rhona said-"
"Yeah, awesome," Jack interrupted, bored. "I really need to edit this weeks YGS and stuff, so…"
He saw hurt flash in Kristen's eyes, and immediately regretted it. He seemed to be hurting her a lot lately - he felt horrible, but he couldn't seem to help it.
"I'm sorry, babe, I-"
"No, it's fine," Kristen shrugged, "I get it. YouTube's important to you."
Jack studied her carefully, but there was no sign of anything aside from indifference on her face. "Sure?"
"Course, why wouldn't I be?" Kristen stood from the sofa and grabbed her jacket. "I'm going to go round to Rhona's and then I'll just go back to mine. It's been nice talking to you."
"Yeah, you too," Jack said, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly. He heard the front door close and he knew she was gone. He pinched his nose in frustration. "Why do I do that?" he mumbled angrily to himself, feeling like a jerk.
He closed the laptop. He didn't really feel like editing anymore. He got up to make himself a cup of coffee, but there was a knock on the door. Maybe Kristen had forgotten something. Now was his chance to apologize. He seized the opportunity and leaped to the door, opening it wide, holding his arms out, and saying "I'm so sorry, Kristen, I love you!" to nothing in particular.
Toby stood at the door looking at him, eyebrow raised. "Girl troubles?" he asked, amused.
Jack opened one eye, and promptly flushed bright red. "I, uh… jeez. Sorry, man."
Toby just laughed and stepped inside without being invited, going straight through to the living room.
"Come in," Jack muttered sarcastically, and went to join him.
