Jealousy

Situation: So James has a crush on a girl and he wants to go out with her. Poppy watches as he tries to "court" her. Poppy watches with growing jealously… Hope you like it!

(Poppy is 15 James is 16)

PPOV

I watched with distaste as James smiled at the girl. I didn't know why I was so jealous. Ok so maybe I did. I liked James. The only problem was our friendship was a big part in my life if I lost that because of some stupid fling I would hate myself.

We were in Study Hall. We were supposed to be studying but James was too caught up in the girl and I was too caught up in James. The girl wasn't paying attention at all to James but I knew it was just a ruse and that she would cave in eventually. I sighed and rolled my eyes.

James was supposed to be helping me with my math homework. I poked him in the side. He looked over at me and said "What do you want?" I thought about that question. What DID I want? The easy answer to that question would be help on my math homework but if I was being honest with myself I wanted James to flirt with me. "Poppy?" he asked me. I realized I'd been sitting there staring at him probably like one of his groupies. "I need you to help me with my math homework. I don't understand." I told him. He nodded. I was glad he was finally paying attention to me rather than that whore over there. Speaking of which she was sending me the evil eye now. I was tempted to flip her off but I resisted… too many witnesses.

After study hall I went to my locker and opened it. A little note fluttered out. I looked around a then picked it up. I opened it and read the note.

Poppy,

Will you meet me at the park tonight at 7?

Your secret admirer

I blushed a little and shoved the note into my pocket. I got my stuff and walked to James's locker. He was talking to that whore again. She executed a perfect hair flip I rolled my eyes. James saw that and he grinned at me. The whore turned to see who he was looking at and she saw me. "Oh it's just you." She said. She had a rather high voice. it grated on my nerves. I wished I could just punch her in the face. "You ready to go, Poppy?" James asked me. I nodded. "See you later, Angela." He said to her, then surprised "Angela" and me by giving Angela a swift kiss on the cheek. He then walked away to his car. I glowered at his back but followed him, after all he WAS my ride. Douche. We got to his car and I got in the passenger seat.

He drove off. I was telepathically trying to send him my thoughts which were so filled with all the swear words I knew he would probably go deaf before he heard them all. Unfortunately he wasn't telepathic. I guess I'd have to settle for verbal. "Douche." I told him. He looked over at me and said "Why?" I looked at him and rolled my eyes. "Oh please Angela is so shallow you need to get someone better. That hasn't woken up beside half the school." I said. "Is that's what really bothering you?" he asked me. Well that and "Well I feel like we don't hang out very much anymore. All your time gets eaten up by your girlfriends. When was the last time you and me spent a whole day together without anyone else tagging along?" James looked slightly guilty when I said that. "How about this weekend? I'll take you wherever you want to go. Think about it and then you tell me your answer." He said. I smiled at him and said "Thanks Jamie. Oh and don't ever forget that I was here before any of your girlfriends and I'll be there after you dump them too." We both knew that he was the dumper not the dumpee. He smiled and said "I'll never forget." By this time he had pulled up to my house and I gave him a quick hug and said "Bye Jamie I'll see you tomorrow." I got out of the car and was shutting the door when he said "See you later Poppy."

A/N: so the note was from one of Angela's buddies they wanted to embaress poppy but unfortunately James told her what was going to happen just in time. Also poppy decides she wants to go to her uncle's lake house (hmmm maybe I should make that the next chapter… anyway tell me what you think of that idea) I hoped you liked it I know it want my best but its getting late and I wanted to get this finished up quickly
