    You were sat in your room, this week had been hella rough. Monday was a drag, Tuesday was hell, Wednesday was terrible, Thursday was atrocious and finally came Friday. That little bit of hope to keep you running through this gloomy July week. There was a knock and suddenly Jacob stumbled in, he was your boyfriend.

    “Ding Dong. Your mom let me in.”

    He gave you a small smile.

    “How do you still have so much energy?” You complained as you cuddled closer to the blanket of self-pity you were wallowing in

    “I don’t even know. This week was pretty painful, but at least it’s over. Right?” He reassured.

    “Totally.” You mumbled.

    “Sooo, you wanna come to the arcade on this fine Friday evening? Just the two of us...” He shot another smile.

    “Meh.” You shrugged. “Id rather stay home tonight.”

    “Alright. Let’s go grab some food then? I’m starving.” He suggested.

    “I’m not really that hungry.” You declined.

    He furrowed his eyebrows and tilted his head in response.

    “What?-“ You asked as his hand reached and placed itself on your forehead.

    “Hm, I sense no fever..” He mumbled.

    “Yeah, cause im not sick.” You snapped back.

    “Somethings not right, I just cant put my finger on it..” He responded.

    You rolled your eyes at him.

    “Are you pregnant?” He squeaked.

    “What? No! Why would you think such thing?” You furrowed your eyebrows at him. You were both 14 so didn’t make sense for you to be pregnant.

    “I don’t know. I dont judge.” He shrugged.

    “How considerate of you.” You sarcastically scoffed.

    “I should probably give you some space.” He held his smirk. “Since thats what you want.”

    He got no response back from you.

    “As I walk out this creaky wooden door.” He looked at the door.

    “Wait.” You sighed, he smirked.

    “Guess it’s a movie night. I’ll make popcorn!” He started smiling excitably and basically dashed out your door to go talk to your mom
