(A/N: I am adding the tryouts now because I decided to add them and it all links up later so don't be confused.)

Jake's PoV:

Me, Chance and Tony were all practicing our skills for football before tryouts to get warmed up. Suddenly Troy and Chad walk over to us aggressively, we looked at them and they had a lot of attitude towards me mainly but some to Chance and Tony.

T- dude, when you first got here you were such a nice, relaxed person but now you're acting like this jerk! What gives?

J- I told you! I gave you all a warning saying that I could go back! You just never believed that I would!

T- DUDE, YOU'RE BULLYING PEOPLE INTO DEPRESSION!!

J- Name someone then!...

T- KELSI NIELSEN, ALISSA VIOLET, DEJI AND JJ!

J- I don't fucking care!

C- DUDE, YOU SHOULD CARE!

Suddenly Alissa came over looking pissed,

Ali: LEAVE THEM THE FUCK ALONE!

C- why do you care?

Ali: BECAUSE THEY ARE LIKE BROTHERS TO ME SO FUCK OFF!

T- yet they bullied you into depression...

Ali: I don't care! You don't know what's going on in their lives!

C- and you do?

Ali: yes I do!

C- anyway, let's stop wasting our time on people who break people down and make them feel like shit!

And with that they walked away and Alissa hugged me, I hugged back and apologised for what we were doing.

J- sorry for everything we've done to you Alissa.

Ali: it's fine, I know you can't control what happens and what goes on at home.

We all smiled and suddenly someone was clicking their fingers in my face.

(A/N: this is were it comes back after Jake finds out what his dad said.)

I snapped back to reality when everyone was talking to me, we were sat on the bleachers and looked at the field, I was remembering what happened when me and Troy had our first argument.

Rik: what were you thinking about?

J- my first argument with Troy and when me and Alissa made up.

I sighed, I still couldn't get over what my dad said.

Erika then started to sing softly:

There was a time, when I used to look into my fathers eyes. In a happy home, I was a king, I had a golden throne. But those days are gone, and now the memory's on the wall. I hear the songs, from the places I was born. Upon a hill across a blue lake, that's where I had my first heartbreak. I still remember how it all changed. My father said, don't you worry, don't you worry child, see heavens got a plan for you. Don't you worry, don't you worry now. Yeeeaaah, there was a time. I met a guy of a different kind, we ruled the world. I thought I'd never lose him out of sight, we were so young. I think of him now and then, I still hear the songs. Reminding me of a friend, upon a hill across a blue lake. That's where I had my first heartbreak, I still remember how it all changed. My father said, don't you worry, don't you worry child, see heavens got a plan for you, don't you worry, don't you worry now. Yeeeaaah, don't you worry, don't you worry child, see heavens got a plan for you, don't you worry, don't you worry now. Yeeeaaah, don't you worry, don't you worry child, see heavens got a plan for you, don't you worry, don't you worry now, yeeeaaah, don't you worry, don't you worry child, see heavens got a plan for you, don't you worry, don't you worry now, yeeeaaah. Don't you worry, don't you worry child see heavens for a plan for you, don't you worry, don't you worry now, yeeeaaah.

By the last couple lines of the song everyone had joined in and I had tears in my eyes. Tony wrapped his arm around me and pulled me close to him, he managed to put his chin on the top of my head whilst I placed my head in the crook of his neck, I didn't cry we just stayed like that for awhile.

I didn't want to stay in school, I didn't want to stay here knowing that my dad could kill himself in any second but I had to stay in school and not get kicked out. It was so confusing that we all started wandering around and we didn't go to lesson, instead we stopped by my mentor's and he let them stay with me considering what we just told him. Chris had left to go explain to all of their teachers what was up because we all had maths, I decided that I wanted to invite Alissa, Troy and his lot round as well. I mean we had the space.

J- can you guys invite Troy and his friends round for a sleepover tonight, say I wanna apologise for everything I've ever done to him and his friends as I'm gonna explain to him everything.

Chanthony- sure!

J- thanks.

time skip*

Troy and his gang accepted the invite and soon enough we were all chilling at mine for a sleepover.

We were all outside sitting by the pool when I needed to clear the tension in the air.

J- guys, I'm sorry for all the shit I've done. It wasn't cool of me and I get if you don't wanna be friends but I wanna get rid of the tension.

T- dude, we just wanna know what started it.

J- my mom and step dad started arguing and the anger and like the attitude appeared, I guess.

Ch- and then we all started acting like dicks to make it seem as if like we turned him back and make it less suspicious I guess.

T- what's it gonna be like when we go to Ohio for the game?

Jcha- awkward

Rik: Jake, you need to tell them! You can't keep hiding it!

Chanthony- do we know it?

J- nope, Erika wasn't even supposed to know.

Everyone except Jake and Erika- you can tell us if you want.

J- Westlake High was one of the biggest places for bullying.

Rik: yeah, the "golden boys" turned into them!

Ka- do you know why though?

J- wait you know?

Ka- I saw it and that's how the golden boys were made!

Chanthony- ohhhhhh! That thing! Kade told us!

J- MOVING ON! Like I said it was the biggest place for bullying, and well before I was a bad boy I was the main victim!

C- that's messed up!

J- then we made the golden boys and acted all like that so then it would stop!

Rik: I mean ever since we all left my sister told me that it's gotten worse!

J- of course it has!

S: ummm excuse me cheekbones but who are you!?

Rik: Sorry, I'm Erika Costell, I'm Jakes girlfriend!

S: YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU HAD A GIRLFRIEND!!

J- MAYBE IF YOU ACTUALLY SPOKE TO ME THEN I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU!

We all laughed and continued to talk, me and the gang now formed a massive group and it was awesome. We made really good friendships and I felt really happy!

D- JAKE JOSEPH PAUL GET YOUR LOUSY ASS IN HERE!!

J- holy shit! WHATS HE DOING HERE?!

D- DONT MAKE ME HUNT YOU DOWN!

J- IVE GOT MY FRIENDS OVER! ALSO DONT TALK TO ME LIKE THAT! WHAT GIVES YOU THE FUCKING RIGHT TO?!

D- THE FACT THAT IM YOUR DAD!! NOW GET YOUR ASS IN HERE THEN AFTER A BIT YOU CAN GO BACK AND SEE YOUR FRIENDS!

J- YOU'RE NOT MY FUCKING DAD YOU ASS HOLE! I NEVER WANTED YOU IN MY LIFE AND NEVER WILL!

I told everyone I'd be right back and I went to go see what he wanted.

J- what the fuck do you want?!

D- Don't talk to me in that tone!

J- don't act as if you're my fucking dad then!

D- school called, you fucking punched DEJI!

J- I don't have time for this shit! I'm going to go be with my friends and anyway, what are you doing here?

D- me and your mother are going our separate ways. We aren't getting a divorce she just wants the old house in place in case you ever move back.

J- okay, can I go now?

Before I could leave he grabbed onto my wrist tightly and whispered in my ear "You won you little fucking waste of space! I'll be back though, and I will hunt you down and it won't be pretty!"

He let go and I looked at my wrist, great it's fucking bruising! I sighed and walked out the door to see everyone in the pool. I sat on the edge of the pool and leaned back, I closed my eyes and relaxed. I was too pissed to do stuff.

Erika swam over to me and got up onto the side.

Rik: Jake, what happened?

J- ...

Rik: Jake?

By this time everyone was looking at us but I didn't care, my own step dad said I was a waste of space and that just brought back the memories from when my actual parents were arguing. I opened my eyes and sat up, I put the hand that he grabbed down and immediately retracted it. Erika stared at me and realised that it was the hand that was supposedly broken.

Rik: Jake, we are going to go get your hand checked out! Earlier you said you couldn't feel anything!

J- BECAUSE I COULDN'T BUT ITS NOT MY HAND THAT HURTS!

Rik: THEN WHAT HAPPENED JAKE?!

J- MY STEP DAD!

Rik: are you being serious?

J- Nah I said it for the fucking fun of it!

I didn't realise that we were shouting and soon enough everyone came swimming over.

Chanthony- dude, tell them how long it's been going on for.

J- you know on my first day at east high?

T- OH YEAH WE WERE THERE!

C- he continued doing it?!

J- ever since Logan left for college he started being a bit more aggressive.

I sighed and threw my head back, why did all of this have to start when my friends where there?

David then came to the outside door and shouted,

D- going up to Ohio, see ya Jakers!

I death stared him and he growled and left.

As soon as he left I was in the best of moods! We all relaxed downstairs and the girls forced us to watch Camp Rock 2: the final jam, High school musical 2 and then Pitch Perfect 3. By the end of all the movies the guys were all about done with singing but ERIKA made us do karaoke!

It was actually really funny to do karaoke with Erika, Tessa picked out our song and it was Wouldn't Change a thing from Camp Rock 2,

Erika:

Its like he doesn't hear a word I say

His mind is somewhere far away

And I don't know how to get there

It's like all he wants to do is chill out

Jake: she's way too serious, she's always in a rush

He makes me wanna pull all my hair

Out

Jake: and interrupting

Like he doesn't even care

Jake: like she doesn't even care

You

Jake: me

We're face to face

Both:

But we don't see eye to eye

Erika:

Like fire and rain

Jake: Like fire and rain

You can drive me insane

Jake: you can drive me insane

Both:

But I can't stay mad at you for

Anything

Erika:

We're Venus and Mars

Jake: we're Venus and mars

We're like different stars

Jake: we're like different stars

Both:

But you're the harmony to every

Song I sing and I wouldn't change a

Thing

Jake:

She's always trying to save the day

Just wanna let my music play

She's all or nothing

But my feelings never change

I try to read her mind, she tries to pick

A fight

Erika: why does he try to read my mind?, it's not good to psychoanalyse

To get attention, that's what all of my friends say

Erika: that's what all of my friends say

Erika:

You

Jake: me

Both:

We're face to face but we don't see eye to eye

Erika:

Like fire and rain

Jake: like fire and rain

You can drive me insane

Jake: you can drive me insane

Both:

But I can't stay mad at you for anything

Erika:

We're Venus and mars

Jake: we're Venus and mars

We're like different stars

Jake: like different stars

Both:

But you're the harmony to every song I sing and I wouldn't change a thing

Jake:

When I'm yes she's no

Erika: when I hold on he just let's go

Both:

We're perfectly imperfect

But I wouldn't change a thing, no

Erika:

Like fire and rain

Jake: like fire and rain

You can drive me insane

Jake: you can drive me insane

Both:

But I can't stay mad at you for anything

Erika:

We're Venus and mars

Jake: we're Venus and mars

We're like different stars

Jake: like different stars

Both:

But you're the harmony to every song I sing and I wouldn't change a thing

But I can't stay mad at you for anything

Erika:

We're Venus and mars

Jake: we're Venus and mars

We're like different stars

Jake: like different stars

Both:

But you're the harmony to every song I sing and I wouldn't change a, wouldn't change a thing

Everyone started clapping and we were born laughing so much, somehow Troy managed to convince me Chance and Tony to sing: Ohio Fried Chicken:

Jake:

Honkey Dong

Tonkey tong

Ohio Fried Chicken is what it's called

I got my truck, my overalls. Just me and my boys making fried Chicken y'all

Tony:

Kentucky can't compete, No, OFC, sweep you off your feet. Please look up to me, we'll tell you what to do, tenders the move. Hey, ya, get yourself some sauce, yeah you a boss.

Chance:

OFC that's how we're livin'. Come around town you'll find me sittin', you're a pretty girl with no care. No problem in the world not even her hair colour, I think I found what I finally need. Chicken and a girl that's nice and thicken' slow it down or speed it up

I'm making my way to Ohio Fried Chicken bitch.

Jake:

Honkey Dong

Tonkey Tong

Ohio Fried Chicken is what it's called

I got my truck, my overalls just me and my boys makin' Fried Chicken y'all

They said I wouldn't make it

And my truck is lifted

Workin' all day that's, that Ohio pride

Just me and my boys makin' Fried Chicken y'all

We finished singing for the night but then we needed to do our assignments for Mrs Darbus:

Ch- yo, we should make so many songs for the homecoming game!

J- isn't homecoming in Ohio?

T- I think so

J- well, I think me, Tony and Sunny, as we had the most trouble with the teachers there, make a teachers diss track and ask to perform it!

(A/N: I forgot to add Sunny earlier on, sorry about that. So now sunny is in it️)

Rik: work on that tomorrow, I mean after all it is the weekend!

T- crap, I forgot it was!

J- wanna meet up at like a park tomorrow and like play basketball or football or soccer?

Everyone except Jake- sure!

We all fell asleep smiling and having our best friends with us!
