It's been some time, since he left and I'm still here, crying my eyes out. I suddenly hear a knock on the door and I check the clock.
2AM
Why would anyone be awake right now?
Maybe it's Luke?
No. I'm crazy.
I wipe my tears and get up, to open the door. A big, muscular figure is standing there. It's dark, so I can't really see the details on it's face. All I can see is an outline of a body.
"Uhh, can I help you?" I whisper, my voice still raspy from crying. I am so scared. I mean, come on, as if you wouldn't be, if someone was knocking on your door at 2am.
"Emmy what did he do to you?" I hear a familiar voice and quickly jump into his arms. He always has the best timing, I swear. That's why we're best friends.
Here he is, the most amazing human being on this entire planet, Jack Dawson!
"Do you wanna talk about it?" He whispers, while my head is buried into his neck. I shake my head and he doesn't reply. He simply takes me to my bed and lays down with me.
"I'll leave when you fall asleep, don't worry," I can hear the smile on his face but I shake my head, "I want you to stay here. Please?" I whine and he chuckles, not replying, he just lays next to me. He kisses me on my forehead and I hug him.
We fall asleep, hugging eachother.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS!" A very loud growl wakes me up. I blink a few times, looking at a very pissed off Luke, standing dangerously close to the bed. Dangerously close to Jack.
This looks wrong.
"This isn't what it looks like," I gulp and Luke isn't looking at me. His eyes are focused on an angry Jack. They are just staring at eachother and I'm just there, waiting for what will happen next. Waiting for someone to throw the first punch.
And of course, Luke was the one throwing the first punch. Jack tackled him on the floor and started throwing punches to his face. Luke turned them around and started choking Jack. He tries to fight him off but Luke won't budge.
"Luke get off of him!" I jump on his back, tackling him on the ground. He looks at me, pissed off and almost takes a swing but when he realizes that it's me he immediately stops. I get off of him and run to Jack, laying on the floor, trying to catch his breath.
"Oh my god, are you okay?" I grab his shoulders but he pushes me off.

"You mother fucker!" He says and runs towards Luke, hitting him again and again and again. I've never seen him this angry. I'm kind of scared of both of them.
"Stop it, you guys!" I exclaim in horror but it's like I'm not even there. They're just punching eachother. I don't know what to do. The last time I intervened a fight, I got hit, so that's not happening.
I have an idea.
I get up and try to walk up to them but fall down. I don't move or open my eyes.
They quickly stop fighting and run towards me. "Em!" Luke grabs my shoulders, shaking me. I open my eyes and slap him. I turn towards Jack and slap him too.
"What the fuck were you two thinking?!" I freak out. They are so stupid! They can't just fight everytime they see eachother.
"We were trying to wake you up?" Jack asks, drawing his eyebrows together.
He really is dumb sometimes, I swear.
"I'm talking about almost killing eachother," I freak out on them, "look at you two!" My eyes travel from Luke's face, to Jack's and back. Unbelievable.
"This happened because of you!" Luke freaks out on me.
"Me?" I yell back.
"You're the one sleeping with him," Luke yells at me. He can't be serious right now.
"You literally have girls sending you nude pictures on Snapchat and you're saying I'm the cheater?" I narrow my eyes at him and his pupils dilate. He did not expect me to find out about this, now did he? I roll my eyes at him and sit down.
"You went through my phone?" He freaks out. Oh he's not putting this on me.
"Jack can you please leave us alone for a few minutes? Thank you," I smile and he nods, leaving. I turn around, looking at Luke now, trying to comprehend what he's saying. I can't believe he's blaming me!
"Well I'm sorry that your phone was blowing up!" I defend myself. I know, I shouldn't have gone through his phone, but if I didn't, the cheating would have been kept a secret. "And I can't believe you! You're actually blaming me right now?" I add, closing the space between us.
"I don't even know what nude photos you're talking about?" He exclaims, pulling out his phone. "Look, there are no nude photos," he gives me his phone and I open a chat with a random girl.
Nudes? ;)
Sure babe ;)
And a picture.
"Care to explain this?" I shove the phone back into his hands. He looks at the chat, acting all confused and innocent. If he's going to say it wasn't him, I'm actually leaving this room.
"I don't know who wrote that," he sits on the bed, thinking. He checks the time the text was sent. Yesterday at 5PM.
"We were on the bus at the time. It had to be Nicki!" He gets up, angry. Sure it was. Was it also her picture? Is this also her phone? Ugh, I hate liars.
He looks at me, realizing I don't believe him. He scoots closer to me and I move away. "Come on Em, you don't think I'd do this shit?" He says, sadness in his voice.
Damn he's a good actor.

"You were kind of a player," I sigh and he looks at me, completely disappointed. As if what I said was a lie. He really was and it wouldn't surprise me if he still is. But the words seemed to hurt him badly, because he stood up and left. He didn't look back. He just left the room. And I didn't stop him. I don't believe his lies.
I look at the door and Jack is standing there. He probably heard the entire thing. Not that it matters, I would have told him anyways.
"Wanna talk about it?" He asks and a tear escapes my eye. I shake my head, "I'll get dressed and we'll go skiing, how about that?" I try to give him a smile and he nods, giving me a cheeky grin.
"And come here, let me clean you up," I say to Jack who obediantely walks to the bathroom with me.
Ugh I hate ski boots. They're so uncomfortable. As I stumble down the stairs with skis in my hands, I see V and Jack waiting for me. Finally some V and Jack time. I really missed all of us, together.
"Emma are you okay?" V quickly asks me, worried. I look at Jack, drawing my eyebrows closer and he shrugs, letting me know, that he told her. I smile and nod.
We ski down to the first ski lift but it's only for two people. "You two go, I'll just wait for the next one," V smirks and I look at her, confused, processing the smirk. Jack nods, smiling and we get on the ski lift.
"So how are you holding?" Jack asks me, once we're on the ski lift. He rests his ski goggles on his helmet, looking at me with his blue eyes. Smiling, he waits for my answer and I shrug. "I mean, I've been better," I smile and he nods.
"Well let me know, if there's anything I could do," he smiles and I smile back.
We skied for a while and stopped at a little cafe/restaurant in the middle of a ski trail. We ordered some tea.
V nudges me and I look back, where Luke and Nicki are. He really wants me to suffer. And just as if Jack knew what I wanted, he scolds closer to me, wrapping his arms around my shoulders. I stiffen a bit, "don't worry. You can thank me later," he smirks, nodding into Luke's way. When I finally understand what's happening, I relax and lean my head on Jack's shoulder. He stiffens a bit and relaxes in a second.
I close my eyes, waiting for Luke to leave. I really don't wanna look at him right now. Especially with her. He knows how much I despise her, but he still chooses to hang out with her. He doesn't even care that she humiliated me in front of the entire school and that she's supposedly trying to sabotage our relationship! We are in kind of a relationship right? I mean, a dating relationship I guess. It's like she's more important. She probably is.
Why am I always the second choice?
Of course they sit 3 tables away from us. Jack pulls me even closer to him and I put my head into his neck. I don't want Luke to see me crying. Jack knows that, so he holds my head with his hand as I cry quietly into his neck. V is trying to play it off cool, talking to Jack but it's visible in her voice that she's worried about me.
V sits herself in a position, where Luke isn't able to see my face, as I pull away from Jack, who quickly wipes my tears away. "Okay you look normal now," he says after a few seconds and I nod, smiling. I can see Luke shooting daggers into Jack with his eyes, but Jack doesn't really care. He's never been scared of Luke, which makes me happy.
When V and Jack drink their tea, I ski down to our cabin and so does V. Jack goes for a few more rides with his other friends.
We go to a restaurant, a few minutes away and order some food. The waiter was flirting with both of us. So disgusting, really. When we ate up we paid and made sure the tip was minimal.
V follows me to my room and we talk about famous boys. We end up discussing if Harry is hotter than Zayn. I'm on Harry's side, honestly. I love both of them but harry is so hot. She's on Zayn's side, ironically her boyfriend looks like Harry Styles.
"Honestly, I think I'm the hottest one," Jack comes into the room, making us both laugh. "Keep telling yourself that, sweetheart," V says and Jack glares at her. She snorts at him and he rolls his eyes.
"Ahh come on Jack is the hottest," I exaggerate and he rolls his eyes again, while V laughs with me.
"Well thanks for saying I'm ugly," he pouts and I hug him, "you're not ugly Jack! Your ego is just a bit too big," I laugh and kiss him on his head. He instantly smirks, "Wanna know something else big of mine?" He winks and I roll my eyes at him.
"You're disgusting."
"You didn't think so last night when we were fucking," his laughter fills the room, making me gasp and so does V. He's so inappropriate.
"IS THERE SOMETHING I DON'T KNOW?" she freaks out and I calm her down.
"No! Jack is just messing around," I roll my eyes and he laughs even harder.
"D-don't you mean, w-we were messing around?" He laughs so hard, he falls off of the bed. I jump on him, gently hitting his stomach. "Oh my god! Shut up!"
V laughs and jumps on me, tackling me off of Jack. She gets on top of me and starts tickling me. As I try to push her off, laughing, Jack pins me down on the floor, so V can tickle me.
Suddenly a cough is heard from the door, saving me from torture. All three of us look at the person standing there at the same time. Of course it's Luke. Sometimes I swear, I feel like he has a tracker on me or some cameras installed somewhere.
"I need to talk to Emma," he says in a low voice, sending shivers down my spine. V gets off of me and Jack lets me go. I stand up, nod and follow him outside.
