A few months ago Jessica West had everything she could ever want. She was a Cheerleader. She had a Quarterback boyfriend. But she threw it all away because of some guy from another school. Some guy who turned out to be a self-absorbed jerk anyway.

“Boys are just a waste of time,” she said, turning her head to look at you, her best friend. She could see your eyes focused on the road as you drove the two of you to the mall.

She found it easy to forget about Anthony when she was with you.

“It should just be me and you y’know? Best Friends forever,” she said, her lips curling upwards into a grin as she nudged your shoulder.
