He was your brother’s friend. Not his best but one of them. You all went to the same elementary school, saw each other through such cringy phases and nothing was normal between you two. He was an awkward nerdy kid and you were his friend’s little sister.

And Kane would’ve killed you. You used to like another one of their friends, Aidan, but that crush was long over. Your brother Kane didn’t care much then, because you were an ugly 11 year old.

But now… oh god, now?

You were in high school. And pretty, too! I mean, Jack was a nice kid so Kane couldn’t be that mad you liked him, right? But your mom had already told you this, Kane’s friends were off limits. No matter how old you were, don’t mess with them.

But at homecoming, with your hair curled all pretty and your makeup done and your dress so gorgeous, and maybe a bit of influence from weed… it was hard to think you couldn't flirt with Jack, even just a little bit.

You had already spoken to him once, he joked with you, asking why you were at the homecoming dance. He must’ve forgotten you were actually in high school now.
