All Chapters of Jake's betrayal: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

After changing into my jeans and sweater, I walked into the field watching the football team practice. Jake was in his element whenever he's in the field. His love for football is the same way I love cheering and I know the news of me leaving the team for a while will break his heart the same way it did mine. He gave me a toothy grin and waived like a kid when he saw me. I blew him a kiss and his teammates teased him like children.Jake is showy of his affection when it comes to me, unlike his previous relationships. He was a QB so it was given that girls were practically falling at his feet. I watched him make out with girls in the hallway, cafeteria, gym, field, and even at classrooms and janitors' closets. He is practically everywhere with a girl clinging on his neck like snakes. Different girls every week and sometimes, every day.I don't approve of what he did but I also don't approve of girls allowing themselves to be played by guys knowingly.

I hopped back into my Land Rover with a grin plastered on my face. West's house is a five-minute drive away and I knocked gleefully before I was lifted into the air by big muscular arms.''Bobbie" Jack squirmed like a girl but his voice was too deep to be a girl. ''I miss you kiddo.'' He put me down and ruffled my hair.''I miss you too Jacky'' I said while taking his look in. He was more buff than before, he could probably crush hollow blocks with those muscular biceps. ''You sure beat Dwayne Johnson in the gym Jack!'' I teased before Esther called both of our names from the kitchen.Jack took a slice of pizza while walking to the kitchen with me. ''I mish twish'' he said in a muffled voice.''Jack!'' Esther scolded him while we took a seat at the dining table. ''Are they teaching you this rubbish table manner in the Marines?''Jack only shrugged his shoulders. ''They starve us to death in the trai

Friday came and I'm glad that Jack found a new person to put his time on. He looks genuinely interested in Tina and told me that he asked her out on Friday. Tina seems to be interested in him too because every time I walked into their shop, her first sentence was 'is Jack with you?'Lee's attitude towards me got even worse within the span of a week. One day when Ben was out because of his Mom, Lee made me change oil for three cars alone. If his goal is to become an ass, he practically tops the list but I'm my mother's daughter, I never give up that easily.Tina was oblivious to Lee's bullying because Jack kept her occupied. Lee was good to her, maybe it's because she's the daughter of the owner. I don't know why he hates me so much but I guess having someone to put my animosity into was helping me somehow.Weekend came and I was itching to drive to boot camp. It was a four-hour drive from town and a glimpse of Jake will ease my mise

Nostalgia, it's the only explanation there is. I sat in my car heaving breaths in and out until I found the courage to face the day. Everyone was looking at me as I walked to my locker. I left my phone in my room because I was flooded with messages from my teammates and friends asking me about my current situation.Having Matt around was really handy. He bought me a prepaid phone early this morning. He wasn't content that I would leave the house without any communication with him.I took my book and headed to my class without looking back for anyone who was calling my name. My life will not stop because of a cheating QB who claims he forgot what happened. I'd like to believe Jake, he never once lied to me about anything but I just can't. I can't feel my heart anymore.Ben was my new-found buddy. He hasn't left my side through lunch until the day is over. He didn't bring his car so that he could ride with me to their shop. He hasn't

The Stanley's and Lee were on the other cab while the four of us headed to my place. Jack said that Jake can't go home like that because the mayor would ground both of them. Mayor Austin was a good guy and it sounded funny that he would ground them.Jake was so drunk that Matt and Jack had to carry him inside the house. I headed for the fridge and took a glass of water before taking the medicine kit from the bathroom. Jake was like a child, he doesn't want Jack or Matt to tend to his wound.''Your room'' he muttered when I sat beside him and tried to clean his bloodied knuckles. He pulled his hand from my grasp. ''I want... room... Bobbie.'' His words were slurring out of his mouth.I heaved a sigh. Matt helped me to carry Jake to my room. When he was seated on my bed, which was the only time he allowed me to clean his wounds.''I'll be downstairs if you need me Bob'' Matt said before exiting my room.
