Leann had always considered herself to be a very jealous person. Her imagination always ran wild, imagining things that drove her crazy with jealousy. But it was entirely different to see something with your own eyes, as opposed to just imagining it. To be visually confronted with something that drove you insanely jealous was a completely different situation. And that's just what had happened on an average Saturday afternoon.

His name was Alex and Leann had been dating him for a couple months now. In the beginning, Leann had been crazy about Alex. She had considered him to be perfect. He was so sweet and caring at first, just the perfect boyfriend. He called Leann every night to say goodnight to her. When he was with her at night, he'd talk to her until she fall asleep and hold her.

For some reason, Drake had never really liked Alex. Drake considered himself to be an excellent judge of character. He prided himself on figuring someone out within seconds of meeting them. The first time Drake met Alex, Leann could tell that Drake disapproved. Drake told Leann that she could do so much better then the likes of him.

Leann didn't listen though. She never listened to Drake when it came to guys.

So Leann had been dating Alex for five months now. At first things were amazing, as is typical in any new relationship. In every new relationship, the beginnings are always more exciting. Leann felt like it had been perfect, but in reality it really wasn't. That didn't matter to her though, she still gave it all that she had to give. To her, Alex was the perfect boyfriend.

Then things started to go down-hill. They fought a lot more often, almost every day. Alex started to grow more distant. Days would go bye when Leann didn't see him at all. He didn't call as much as he once did. When he did call, they almost always got into a fight over the phone. Then came the other girls. He cheated on her more then once, she just never caught him doing it.

At first Leann tried to ignore it all. She tried to ignore the fact that he was growing progressively more distant. She ignored all the girls that always seemed to be hanging out around him. She truly believed that she loved Alex, and wanted to work on their relationship. She firmly believed that they were just going through a rough patch and that things would work out.

Things had yet to work out. Today was the last straw. She had gone over to Alex's house to see him. It was saturday and she was going to Daisy's party later on that night. She wanted to make sure that Alex was ok with her going and see if maybe he wanted to come with her. She went over to his house and let herself in the door.

Alex didn't bother to get off the couch when she came into the room. He was sitting there surrounded bye a group of his friends. There were a lot of girls there too. He was sitting next to one girl in particular and he regarded Leann coolly when she came in the room.

"Naw," He said when she told him about the party, "I don't wanna go. You can go bye yourself."

The girl sitting next to Alex giggled as if he had said something really funny. Leann looked at the girl through narrowed eyes. The girl looked away, but she was still smiling a tiny smile. Leann looked back at Alex.

"We haven't done anything together in a really long time Alex," Leann said gently. "

Alex looked unconcerned.

"It hasn't been that long Leann. You're exaggerating. Again. And I don't really wanna do anything with you. You'll just start some bull-shit fight over nothing, like usual," Alex said.

Leann glared at him. "God! You are such an asshole! I really don't know why I put up with your shit anymore!" Leann muttered.

Alex smirked and shrugged. "I don't know why either Leann," He said with a lazy grin plastered on his face.

Leann glared at him. Then she jumped up and walked away to the other room. She needed to get away from him before she started screaming at him in front of everyone. Then all his friends would think she was as crazy as he was always saying she was. She walked around the house smoking a cigarette, trying to calm down slightly.

When she felt more composed, Leann walked back into the living room. That's when she saw it, the straw that broke the camel's back. Alex was sitting on the couch next to the same girl. He had his arm wrapped around her very tightly and the girl was leaning into him deeply. They both looked so content and Leann felt as if she had been punched in the stomach. The girl was all over him! She had her head resting on his shoulder, and he was slowly kissing her neck. The girl was way too close to Alex, way too close. Their bodies meshed together, practically became one. His arm was still around the girl and she was giggling and smiling at him.

Leann's initial reaction was to rip the girl off of Alex and beat the hell out of her. But she knew it wasn't worth it. Alex wasn't worth anything. Leann finally realized what Drake had been telling her all along, which was that she could do way better then the likes of Alex.

Alex looked up to see Leann standing there glaring at him. He didn't even attempt to distangle himself from the girl next to him. He just raised his eyebrows slightly at Leann.

"Now don't exaggerate Leann. We aren't really doing anything. She's just my friend," Alex said.

Leann shrugged.

"You know what, Alex? I don't care anymore. I really don't. Do what you want. I don't want you anymore," Leann said.

Then she walked out the door and away from Alex forever.


When Leann got home, Drake was sitting on the couch. Leann walked over to him and curled up next to him. Drake wrapped an arm around her.

"What's up?" He asked.

"I just broke up with Alex," Leann muttered.

"For good?" Drake asked.

Leann nodded.

Drake grinned.

"Good," Drake replied and kissed her cheek.

Leann sighed and rested her head on Drake's shoulder.

"I can't believe I wasted five months with him," She mumbled, wrinkling up her face in disgust.

"Don't even think about it anymore. Go get ready. You're still coming with me to Daisy's party, right?" Drake asked.

"Of course. Is Brittany coming?" Leann asked.

Drake smiled at the mention of her name.

"Daisy and Brittany live at the same house. Along with a bunch of other people. You'll meet them all today," Drake told her.

"Oh. They all live together? Does Donatello live with them too?" Leann asked.

"Mmm-hmm. What's with the sudden interest in Donatello?" Drake asked, taking a closer look at her face.

"I have no interest in Donatello. I was just wondering who all lived at the house," Leann informed him.

Drake smirked.

"Mmm-hmm. I bet," He replied and smirked at her.

Leann rolled her eyes.

"You have no idea what you're talking about," Leann said.

Drake laughed.

"Sure sure, I'll play your little games. You don't like Donatello, whatever," He replied, still smirking widely.

"I don't like Donatello!" Leann snapped.

Drake laughed.

"Uh hu," He said.

Leann gave him a dirty look. She pulled away from him and got up off the couch.

"I'm going to get ready now," She said in a dignified voice.

He smirked.

"Sounds good. Make sure you look sexy for Donatello," Drake said and winked at her.

Leann cut her eyes at him.

"I do not like him! In case you haven't noticed, I don't like blond men," Leann said, eying Drake's blond hair with distaste.

Drake laughed.

"Sooo defensive," He said.

"And Donatello's boring! He has no personality!" Leann declared.

Drake took one look at her, at the angry expression on her face and her fists balled up at her sides, then he started to crack up hysterically. Leann looked at him in utter disgust for a moment. Then walked away. She could still hear Drake's laughter all the way upstairs.

Leann took a really long, really hot shower. The entire time she fumed to herself. I do not like Donatello, She told herself as she rinsed the conditoner out of her hair. He really has no personality, she thought as she turned the water off and stepped out of the shower. Drake thinks he knows everything!

Leann wrapped a towel around herself, then walked into her room. She studied her reflection in her full-length mirror. She eyed her wet curly blond hair and her big green eyes. She knew she was pretty, but wasn't really sure what kind of girls Donatello liked. Not that it mattered. She didn't like him, so it truly didn't matter, now did it?

Leann threw her towel to the ground. She slipped into her black lace bra and matching underwear then proceeded to tear through her clothes. She threw piles of clothes on the ground, not really finding anything she felt like wearing. She continued to frantically search her dresser drawers and closet for about ten minutes. She still couldn't find anything at all to wear. She looked around at the piles of clothes, feeling desperate. She heard snickering and turned to see Drake standing in the door-way.

"Tough decision, hu?" He asked.

Leann sighed in frustration.

"I can't find anything good enough!" She declared.

Drake laughed.

"Nothing you have is good enough for Donatello?" He asked with a smirk.

Leann let out a tiny shriek of frustration.

"Drake! Stop being an asshole and help me!" She muttered.

Drake shook his head and walked into her room.

"Girls and their clothes," He muttered.

He walked up to Leann's closet, closely studying her clothes. He pulled a dress off its hanger and handed it to Leann.

"Wear this, you always look really good in it," He told her.

Leann looked at the dress quizzically. It was a short pale yellow halter dress with silver sequins going diagonally down the side. It was a really cute dress and Leann knew she looked good in it. She smiled at Drake and kissed his cheek.

"Thanks babe," She replied, slipping into the dress.

He shook his head at her and then walked away.

Leann adjusted the dress so it fit snugly and looked at her reflection. She looked so cute! She twriled around, watching the dress flare out in the air. She smiled and walked up to her dresser. She found her pair of big yellow hoop earrings and put them on. She also put on her sterling silver star necklace and matching bracelet. Then slipped into her yellow platform shoes. She looked at herself one last time and liked what she saw.

"Are you ready yet? Jesus christ Leann, it's just a party," Drake said from the doorway.

"I'm ready!" Leann annouced, smiling brightly at him.

"Thank god. Let's go you hooker," He said, grabbing her arm and leading her down the stairs.

Leann followed him, feeling so excited! She had a good feeling about tonight.
