What am I going to have to do to get Jessica back? Okay, I made my first stupid mistake when I first met her, and didn't tell her that I had a girlfriend. Then I made another stupid mistake when everybody was calling her a slut. Then, when we finally got together, I dumped her for Melissa. So I now realize that she was the girl for me all along. So on Friday afternoon, I drove Melissa home from school, and broke up with her right there on her front porch. I think she hates my guts. Why am I not surprised? Now I really want to get Jessica back, and I have no clue how to do that.

I can't believe Will had the nerve to break up with me this afternoon! I thought that he was finished with that blond bimbo, but no, Jessica is going to take Will from me again! I seriously hate that girl. But I am a strong person, and I'm not going to go crazy again. So, here's my question, do I have enough time to get a date for Saturday night?
Jessica Wakefield
This thing with Will is getting really old. I don't want to get back together with that lying, cheating idiot ever. But apparently he wants to date me again. Well, I'll tell you now: There is no way in hell that I'll ever forgive him for everything he's done to me and I'll never date him again.
By the way, Elizabeth is now an hour and a half late.
It really was amazing how quickly Elizabeth had lost control over what she and Conner were doing. In just one minute, they'd gone from making out to Conner removing her shirt. And frankly, she hadn't really minded.
Until now. Conner had reached for the clasp on her bra, and she'd pulled back.
"Conner, um, I think that we should stop." Elizabeth said, picking her blouse off the floor. Conner looked at her for a moment.
"Why, what's wrong?" Elizabeth had gotten off his bed for a moment to put her shirt back on. Now she sat back down beside him.
"I'm not ready to go any farther." Elizabeth said gently, straitening her skirt. She saw Conner lower his eyes.
"Liz, you know I won't hurt you. Why not?" He asked, waiting for an answer.
Elizabeth frowned. "Conner, it's not that I don't trust you, I'm just not ready to take that big of a step. I'm trying to do what I think is best for me."
Conner nodded. "I understand, and I respect your decision, so I'm not going to force you to do anything." He looked at his clock. "Crap, weren't you supposed to be home about two hours ago?"
"Opps."
Conner leaned over and gave her a kiss. "Come on, you'd better get going."
Jessica checked the time. One thirty. Her parents weren't home yet, but neither was Elizabeth. It her parents got home first, Elizabeth was dead. Then she heard it, the garage door opening, and a look out her window told her that her sister was in major trouble.
Jessica decided to stay in her room, and hope her parents wouldn't come check on her, and Elizabeth could sneak in. Then she heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Her mom opened her bedroom door. "Hi Jess, did you have a good evening?" Alice asked, leaning on the doorframe.
"Well, we had a pint of Ben and Jerry's in the freezer... I'd say I had a good time." Jessica replied, actually telling the truth. She'd had a huge serving of Cherry Garcia.
Alice laughed. "I'm going to check on Liz." Her mom shut the door, and Jessica grimaced. Just over a minute later, her mother was back in her room. "Where's Elizabeth?"
"Um... um... well, Elizabeth hasn't gotten back from her date with Conner yet.
"What!?" Alice asked, half shouting.
Elizabeth walked up the back steps, hoping her parent's wouldn't catch her. She used her house key to open the door, and slid in quietly, walking towards the stairs. At that point, Ned Wakefield appeared in front of her.
"Young lady, you have a lot of explaining to do."
