A/N: So, is this fast enough for you? Lol. PLEASE REVIEW!!!
I stood in the doorway of the cafeteria, staring at the two open chairs. Meg sighed from beside me, gently pushing me toward the two open chairs- the chairs right beside Justin. "Its just lunch, Jade. You aren't declaring your undying love for him or anything."
I turned to her, wide eyed. "I dont love-"
"Just walk." Meg told me, rolling her eyes and pushing me toward the chairs. Justin's face visably brightened when he saw us walking toward him.
"Hey." He said, smiling at me and pushing the chair out. "take a seat."
I felt the eyes of everyone on me. You would think I would be used to it by now. I let out a soft sigh, sliding into the seat next to Justin. He instantly placed his arm on the back of my chair. "Hey, Meg." He greeted as she slid into the seat next to me.
"Justin." She said, smiling at him brightly as she grabbed my bag of chips. I laughed. You would think I'd learn to get two bags by now.
Justin raised his eyebrows, looking at us, then slid his own bag over to me. "Here, I dont want them anyway."
"Are you sur-"
"Go ahead." He said, chuckling. His arm moving from my chair to my shoulders.
"So, how's your dad, Jade?" Chrissy, one of my old'crowd' asked me, a scowl on her face. She had been one of those that hung out with me as much as possible. Now, I knew it was just to get to Justin and Sean. But when the boys split, she had chose Justin's side- which made me think it had been to be around Justin.
Justin instantly lost his smile. "Chrissy-"
"It was an innocent question." She snarled, her eyes glaring at the two of us. "Does he call you from jail, Jade? Get letters once a week?"
"What is it your parents do, Chrissy?" Meg asked, her voice completely innocent.
Chrissy turned to her, a scowl on her face. "My moms a designer, my father a lawyer. Why?"
Meg shrugged. "I just thought the reason you were asking about Jade's dad was because maybe you wanted to know if he talked to her more than your own parents talked to you. I guess thats right. Their probably to busy to be around you much. If they were, you might have some manners."
A few of the kids chuckled while Chrissy's face turned an unattractive shade of red. "You bit-"
"So, how are you doing, Jade?" Logan asked from his place on the other side of Justin. "I feel like I haven't talked to you in forever."
Because you abandoned me with everyone else, I wanted to say. But Justin squeezed my shoulder, making me meet his eyes. He was clearly asking me to play nice. I sighed, tearing my gaze away. "Fine. Everything is fine."
The look Logan shot me told me that he clearly didnt believe me. Justin squeezed my shoulder once again, moving closer to me. Well, he tried to.
"Well, what do we have here?" that obnoxious voice asked, coming from right above us. Both Justin and I turned our heads, glaring at Sean. He just looked amused, staring at the small space between us. "Huh, last year, that was where I sat." He mused.
He reached out his and, letting it trail from my cheek, down to my neck. Justin reacted instantly, pulling his hand away and glaring at him. "Hands away." He growled.
Sean let out a bitter laugh, his eyes hard. "Oh, cute." He said, letting his eyes slide over to mine. "Did you know your littlefriend here, just had his dreams come true?"
"Shut the hell up." Justin growled, his arm falling from around me as he stood.
"You see, I wasnt going to date you." Sean continued, his eyes trained on Justin. "I knew Justin liked you. Always had. But Justin wanted you to be happy. And he knew you liked me. So, I asked you out because he asked me too."
There was silence. Justin moved forward suddenly, grabbing Sean by his shoulders and slamming him back against the table. "I told you to shut the hell up." Justin hissed, his usual carefree attitude gone.
"I wanted to break up with you at the end of freshman year." Sean continued, ignoring the fact that he was pinned on the tabled by Justin. "But Justin told me not to. Said you'd be devastated. So, I stayed with you. Look at what that got me. My family was fucking torn apart. I fell in fucking love with you, and you still ended up with this bastard." Sean sneered, glaring at Justin.
There was only a moment of pause, and then everyone broke into action, some people grabbing Justin who was trying to get to Sean, some grabbing Sean. Some were just talking, staring at me.
What did I do? I just walked away.

I left school, choosing to go straight home. I didnt want to be there. Not after that. Was it true? Did Sean really only date me because of Justin? And then he said he fell in love with me. Did that mean he was still in love with me? Then why did he treat me like he did?
I sighed, sick of all the thoughts running through my head. I let myself into the house, freezing at the noises I heard. She wouldnt
"Oh! Daniel-"
Okay, maybe she would. I cannot believe my aunt would bring him here! Here, and do that. Screw the fact I was supposed to be in school. This was the guy that completely ruined my life!
"Ohhh"
I turned around, slamming the door behind me loudly. Well, wasnt this just a great day! What else could possibly go wrong? And where could I go?
The answer came to me as I pulled up. I hadn't even know where I was going. Olivia was out front, her eyebrows raised as she looked at my car. "Jade, I might not be your legal guardian or anything, but I'm fairly certain you're supposed to be in school."
"I just-" I broke off, the tears coming down my face for the first time in months. "I just couldnt take it anymore."
Olivia was beside me instantly, her arms around me as she ushered me into the house. "Its okay honey, everything is okay. Come on, lets just rest."
I sat on her couch, letting the tears overtake me. "Dear, why dont you go get some sleep. I'm sure Justin wouldnt mind if you went to his room." Olivia said softly. I noticed instantly that she didnt say anything about Sean.
I nodded, making my way up the stairs. I had my hand on the door knob to walk into Justin's room, but I changed my mind. Slowly, I made my way further down the hall, pushing my way into Sean's room.
It was deserted. There was the furniture, the bed. The walls were completely bare, nothing showing any personality. It was obvious he didnt want to be here. I slowly made my way to his bed, sitting on it slowly. The smell hit me hard- the same smell of his cologne I bought him. Slowly, I pulled open the drawer beside the bed, then froze.
There was a picture, a picture of the two of us at the Winter Formal our Sophomore year. The dance where he told me he loved me. The night we slept together the first time.
I threw the photo back in the drawer, slamming it shut. I walked out of the room quickly, going back down the hall. I walked into Justin's room, instantly smiling at the mess. There were books on the floor, along with clothes and a few other things. His bed was unmade, so I sat down and pulled the sheets over my body. I instantly felt comfort like I hadn't had in a long time. I laid down, then sat back up as I noticed the pictures on the desk. There was one of me, Justin, and Sean on our first day of high school, all smiling brightly at the camera. One of me and Justin on my sixteenth birthday, dancing. I remember how pissed Sean got about me dancing with him. And there was one more. It was from only a few days ago, I was sitting in the lunch room, Meg next to me. We were both smiling and laughing. I frowned instantly, wondering how he had got that photo.
"Jade, honey?" Olivia asked, knocking on the door. "Are you awake?"
"Yeah." I replied, lying back against the bed.
Olivia opened the door slowly, poking her head inside. "Justin and Sean both called looking for you. I told them you were here. But its almost three, and I didnt know if you wanted to stay or not. I can garentee that they'll both be here."
"Thanks Olivia." I said, standing quickly. "Thank for letting me stay here."
"Anytime dear." Olivia said, her eyes also fixed on the pictures on Justin's desk. "Jade?" I looked at her, and she still gazed at the pictures. "Both of these boys- they care for you deeply. And, although Sean is my son, I know which choice is better for you." She met my eyes, her face completely serious. "I just hope you can see it too."
