PS The words in italics is Kim's dream.
JACK
I had been three weeks since I had talked to Kim. We still danced and stuff but she wouldn't look me in the eye. I felt so stupid. I went to hanging out with my old friends but during lunch all I would do was stare at Kim. Lindsey still tried her hardest to hook up with me but, the only girl for me is Kim Crawford. All I wanted was to have her back. Ever since we broke up I've done nothing. I haven't smiled in three weeks. I wouldn't be surprise if some one compared me to Kristen Stewart. I felt so empty, like there is a hole inside me. And yes, I do realize that I sound like a girl but, this is really the way I feel. I wonder if Kim feels the same way. She doesn't seem happy, but she doesn't seem depressed. I feel like I hurt more than she does but I doubt it. She didn't do anything wrong, I did. I have myself to blame for loosing Kim. I still cry a lot, too. Practically all night. I go to school then when I get home I cry till dinner. Then after dinner I cry myself to sleep. I wish I could just fix this…..
KIM
I had done positively nothing over the passed three weeks. Unless you count crying. And wanting to die. I really meant that I had nothing left to live for. No one would miss me too much. Lindsey would be ecstatic if she found out I died. I would dance every once and a while, but not with the same passion I had before. Jack seemed OK; I'm guessing he just felt a little guilty so he puts on a show when I'm around. I wish I could find something, or someone, that would make me happy again. Jerry always tried, but he just wasn't the same. Why can't I get over this? It's affecting everything in my life. I can't pay attention to anyone, I forget how to do things I've been doing for years, and I can't even remember how to get to school. Jerry has to come pick me up. Worst of all, I don't even eat much any more. One time Mika even tried to stuff something down my throat so I would eat but, like I said, nothing worth living for.
JACK
It's now been almost a month since I've talked to Kim. I try to talk to her but when I do she just replies, "There isn't anything to talk about," then simply walks away. All I want is to explain! Why can't she see that! All I can think about is Kim, how I hurt her, and the very last thing she said, "You really were the only thing left living for." I couldn't help but think of what that meant. She might kill herself over my stupid mistake. All I want to do is fix this, make everything ok. The worst part is I can't do anything about it. I've ruined my own life, maybe. Maybe if I call Kim with a blocked number she will answer! This is a great plan. I can explain and she might listen!
I type in her phone number and press call. "Hello?" She answers.
"Kim!" She hangs up. Of course, she can recognize my voice. Realizing that I will probably never talk to Kim ever again, and fall on my bed and cry myself to sleep. When I wake up its three hours later and someone is banging on my door. "Come in!" I say, tears still streaming down my face. Jerry opens the door.
"Do you want her to kill herself?!" He screams. "Do you not understand what pain you're putting her through?! She loved you and you played her! She really has nothing worth living for now! She won't eat, she won't listen to anyone, and you're just laying here on your butt not caring!" This makes me start bawling. I don't even care. Now Jerry looks at me confused. "Why are you crying?" He asks.
"You don't understand do you? I do love her! I was set up! Now I've lost the only thing that I loved! I've never felt that way about anyone and now I've lost her!" Now he is really confused.
"What?"
"Lindsey set me up. She knew Kim would run through the hallway that we were in so she kissed me. I couldn't make her stop. I've been trying to tell Kim that for the passed month but, she won't let me. I don't blame her though…."
"I won't let you actually. When you call, I hang up for you, and I've been telling her not to talk to you. I'm sorry! I thought it would just hurt her more so, yea."
"Then you have to tell her! This will fix everything! She'll definitely believe you!"
"I'll try!" Jerry screams as he runs out the door. Jerry has just saved my life.
KIM
"What?" I ask.
"It was a set up. It was all Lindsey's fault. Jack had nothing to do with it." Jerry smiles.
"I can't believe it."
"Why?"
"Well I can believe that Lindsey would do that but, I saw it. Jack kissed back. He kissed back." The picture returns to my mind, then my dream. Not being able to stop it, him not being able to hear me, him not caring. I start crying. Why can't I just die?
"Trust me it's the truth! He was crying. I know I saw that."
"I can't believe that Jerry!" I scream
"Fine!" He screams back. "What have you eaten today?" He asks.
"Nothing." I answer.
"You need to eat!"
"No I don't! I'm perfectly fine."
"Kim, your starving yourself. That's not perfectly fine."
"Well, I don't care. Can you go? I want to go to bed."
"OK, goodnight." Then Jerry leaves. He is probably going to go tell Jack that I didn't buy it. I can't believe he thought I would believe that. I just lay my head down when I nock out immediately. I start to dream.
I run down the hallways of my school. I want to find Jack but he isn't anywhere. There is one last hallway and there is someone at the end. "Jack!" I scream with relief. He doesn't notice me so I scream louder. "Jack!" A girl walks up to him and kisses him. He kisses back. I run faster than before but I don't go anywhere. Why can't he hear me? Doesn't he know I'm here? I start to scream extremely loud but he still can't hear me. "Jack! Jack!"
