alright peeps, here's when things get better the third chapter is the best though cause macey and wes are in it. disclaimer: i do not own any of the characters or the story


The days continued to pass. Inside of me, for the first time in my life, I felt like a mess, but on the outside I looked like the same in control person I always was. My parents didn't notice. When they asked about Macey I told them that we were still on a break.

My student counsel friends, Amanda and Bethany, acted the same, but something about them, I don't know, just didn't seem right. I couldn't pinpoint it. I tried making some lists about their characteristics to find out what I was seeing differently, but they didn't seem to answer any of my questions, they just gave me more things to ponder.

One day when I was talking to my parents, they said something that got me thinking, "You know Jason, you should study with Macey and her new friends, just as a friend."

I looked at them, hope suddenly coursing throughout my body, "Yeah, why not?"

That got me thinking. I wanted Macey back. That boy didn't deserve her. I bet he did terrible in school, and I think I remember him from someplace. "Of course!" I thought, as energy and anger coursed through me. I saw him when I tutored at the reformatory school. That punk was in jail, and he's got Macey brainwashed by his looks. I had to let her know. Then she would come to her senses and back to me. It wasn't fair. Look at all the work I do, and look who gets her instead. That was about to change.
