    Im Jessica Ferrera and i dated a guy named Jake big mistake. We started dating near the beginning of high school. We had been friends and then i stupidly started dating him. I had dreamed about him, thought i heard him call my name in my dreams, and think about being with him every day. But my world collapsed one day. Jake was always invited inside my house he never had to ask, but when i came home one day from helping my mom with the groceries i saw Jake and another girl in my room kissing. The girl had a perfect figure, blond hair and perfect face. They stopped kissing when they heard me enter the room. Everyone froze. I stood there for 5 min not knowing what to say, what to feel, how to react. I had loved him more than anyone. And here he was cheating on me. I started screaming, "WHAT THE HELL JAKE! get out of my house! you take your ugly barbie doll with you i don't care just LEAVE!" I felt like braking the girls face and choking Jake. I had been brutally heart broken. I cant find the words to say how much pain i felt. As i saw him leave with the girl i saw him turn around worried, i closed the door in his face and i ran into my room and cried. I ran to my room, closed the door, and fell to the ground. I couldn't control how much i was crying, every part of me was in pain. How could he do this?!? bring some other girl into my house, my room, and cheat on me!! i started feeling anger, but then in the end i was crying on the floor in a ball unable to move. It felt like nothing mattered anymore. I would never forgive him. Not for what he did to me. I didn't eat that day, i didn't care if i even died. Dying would be better than feeling all of this pain. I cried myself to sleep that night, and hoped that maybe, just maybe, tomorrow wouldn't be so painful.

    I woke up in the morning feeling numb. I ran to school not having breakfast either. I ran past the halls hoping that i wouldn't see Jake because if i did i wouldn't know how to react. Should i get angry or cry in pain. My friend Kaitlyn came up to me, "Hey whats up mi Amiga?" I looked down to the floor i didn't feel like doing or saying anything. I just walked pass her and pretended i didn't hear anything. Today in class i got assigned a new seat, the teacher saw that i had surprisingly stopped talking during class so she put me near the back she didn't need to put me in the front anymore to keep a watch. I looked slightly to my right, and there was a handsome guy dark brown hair, muscular, and had dark brown eyes that seemed irresistible. I realized i had just liked Jake and now im liking this other guy? not possible. I told myself i was being stupid, how could i like another guy already, im not that type of girl. I looked slightly to my left and there was Jake. I thought to myself, "oh, my, goodness". I didn't know what to say, or what to do. I was fidgeting through my backpack nervous about the new guy, and nervous about Jake. And my pencil pouch fell and Jake and the other guy were about to grab it but they both got it at the same time. Jake pulled it harder toward his side and he got it and gave it to me. I didn't even look at him. How could Jake suddenly be so nice after what he did. He doesn't even deserve to talk to me. The teacher Mr. Woodland said, "Everyone today we are going to choose partners because unfortunately we don't have enough supplies to go around. So everyone, go choose quickly ill give you about 5 min." Everyone in the room got up and started talking to each other the guy next to me tapped me lightly on the shoulder. "um, hi, I'm Joseph." He smiled and i smiled back. "Would you like to be my partner?" I saw Jake was behind me.I accepted Josephs offer and i saw Jake frown and walked away. I looked over at Jake to see his partner, it was the barbie girl.
    Joseph and i had a great time though. We finished the project a bit late because we had been talking the whole time in class. I asked, "So how was your summer?" he said, "Good i met some pretty girls there, almost as pretty as you." I looked down and felt my cheeks getting red. The next class we had together but i was horrible at it. I told Joseph how much i hated it. It wasn't my easiest subject. He asked, "Well if you want..." he hesitated for a sec then said, "Never mind." I stopped him in his tracks, "No really you can tell me."
    He paused for another sec thinking then said, "Well i could always tutor you after school, that is, if you want, i mean if not that's still totally cool with me." he saida nervously, "That's a great idea, of course." He looked away and i saw he was trying to hide his smile. I didn't even bother to hide it i smiled too. "So we'll go to the library then?"i asked. "Sure, you want to start today?" he asked. "Yea let me just go call my parents to tell them I'm staying later." I called my parents and everything was arranged. When the last period was over i saw Jake running to me. Ugh. I started walking quickly going the total opposite way I was suppose to go and avoiding his glare. He caught up to me and was standing right in front of me. "Jessica! look at me." I looked to the floor. "Look at me Jess!" I slowly turned my gaze toward him, his hair was a little messier than usual and he had bags under his eyes. "Jess i felt terribly bad about yesterday, i haven't eaten anything, i cant sleep, and I'm breaking down." I guess he does know more or less how it feels like. I saw Joseph running toward me. Oh great, even better. Joseph came to me and looked at Jake.

    Jake had this look of so much anger i thought he might start a fight with Joseph but he didn't. "Jess ill explain everything later, when pretty boy is not here anymore." Then he walked away. Joseph looked at me wondering what he did. "Lets just go, ill explain it to you some other time trust me." "Right so anyways, lets get started."
    To tell you the truth at first, i had no idea what he was saying, i was just looking at him and nodding for a while, but later i started understanding and i got everything. I was for sure going to ace this test. In the end Joseph gave me a piece of paper crumbled up. He said, "Oh i think you forgot this. Your notes kept flying away because of the wind, i guess im lucky i got it before it flew away." "Thanks." "No problem." I went into my house and did all my homework pretty quickly. I was bored i watched some TV. Then i thought it would be better to review my notes one more time before i get to bed. I opened all the notes. I took out the crumbled piece of paper in my pocket, the one that Joseph had given me, and when i uncrumbled it i saw a cell phone number in there. In the bottom he wrote 'Call me". I smiled. I put it back in my pocket. I tucked myself into bed and told myself, into bed and was glad that at least some things were getting better. As I fell asleep I heard something outside that woke me up. There was a car parked near my house. I gasped. It was Jake, at my house, in the middle of the night. What is he doing here? I ran downstairs and opened the door. Jake was at my door in a tuxedo, and had roses in his hands.
    My parents woke up. Jake apologized and asked if he could just talk to me for a minute. I told him to come in and we sat on opposite sides of the sofa. What could Jake want from me? He broke my heart into pieces. Anger rushed to me and I felt like hurting him physically and mentally. But I held that temptation back.
    Jake looked at the floor,
    “Jess look before you say anything please give me some time to explain now that pretty boy isn’t here anymore.”
    I didn’t look at him. What possible explanation can he have?
    “Ok, well I met this girl and we were at a club..”
    “Jake stop right there, I don’t want to even hear the rest.” I said.
    “Baby don’t take it like this, so I made out with another girl once, my bad.”
    Anger was flowing through my blood and nothing was going to stop me now.
    I got up from the sofa and slapped him in the face with the back of my hand.
    “I don’t EVER want to see you again! What the hell! Ur bad!!! I don’t even know why the hell I dated u in the first place! Wear did u get the idea for the tux and flowers from your cuzin just to go get drunk and date some other girl!”
    “Baby don’t…”
    “Don’t call me that, ever!”
    “Look Jessy don’t get all worked up about this maybe I got a little buzzed and I did some crazy things I wasn’t thinking straight.”
    “Jake, I don’t EVER want to see your face again! Leave or I will make you.”
    “Fine, ill go, but if you ever want me back you know wear to call me.”
    I closed the door wildly. I slapped him in the face so what? I wanted to do more than that, beat him up. How the heck can he think that cheating on me and getting drunk is alright!
    I couldn’t go back to bed. He made everything worse. I never wanted to see his face again.
    I slept for like an hour then I woke up. I got dressed, went into the car and went to school.
    Joseph was there lying against his locker waiting for something. I said, “Hi Joseph.”
    “Hey.” :So how do you think your gonna do on the test?” he asked. “Wonderful, you are a great tutor.” We both smiled. “So you never told me what happened with that guy yesterday between you and him? You guys dating?” He asked.
    “No, heres what happened…”
    I explained everything that happened even the night before.
    “How can he ever treat someone like that?”
    “Ugh I don’t know I hate him.”
    He looked down at his shoes then smiled,
    “So does that mean your single?” he asked. I smiled.
    “Yes”
    “Well do you want me to be a good boyfriend to you?”
    I looked downward toward the floor and smiled. But then I thought to myself, was I prepared for anything like this?After what just happened? Can I really take the chance of my heart tbeing shattered even more?
    “I’d like that, but can we start slow and steady because after what happened with Jake....”
    “Oh so that’s his name? oh ok.”
    “Right so, um, when do you think you’ll be ready to go on a date with me?”
    “Whenever your ready.” I said.
    He smiled, “Great so that can be today, after tutoring?”
    We both smiled, “Yea of course.”
    The bell rung but we both stared at each other for a while then we went off to class. The day went by dreadfully slow. And with Jake it was horrible. But after class he met up with me. “So lets get going then.” We both walked toward the library. I ran a little closer to him and held his hand. He stopped walking. We faced each other, my hand still holding on to his, and he lifted our hands, and smiled. “I like wear this is going.” I smiled and pulled him a little toward the library. “Come on Romeo we got some studying to do.” We both blushed at the playful comment. Then we walked to the library our hands still intertwined with each other.When we got there he tutored me again and I understood everything perfectly. When we were finished he came toward me and held my hand. He said, “Lets go, we have a date to go to.”
