I wasn't looking forward to school the next day. I kept looking around to make sure I didn't run into Jake. Stupid Liliana and her selfishness.
During lunch, I sat outside to eat my sandwich. He mostly sits inside with his friends and terrorized the unsuspecting nerds so maybe I am safe outdoors.
"There you are, Jane Brown." My heart stopped when I heard Jake's deep voice. Fuck me...
"Oh, hi Jake, I said.
"Well? What did you find out?" he asked casually.
"Liliana's favorite food is chicken fingers?" I said.
"About me, what did you find out when you asked her about me?" he asked, already annoyed at me.
"Oh...um...she said you aren't her type. Sorry Jake," I said.
His eyes glowed with anger again and I felt a familiar chill. I was so screwed.
"Not good enough," he said. "You need to try harder to convince her."
"But Jake... " I whimpered.
"No buts, just fucking do it. There's gonna be a party at my house tonight. Normally I don't invite losers but I'll make one exception for her. I expect you to be there with her," he said.
A party? I was never invited to a party before so I felt kind of excited. I scolded myself in my head immediately. It's not like he was actually inviting me. It was because of Liliana.
"O...okay, I'll try to convince her," I said nervously.
"You better, or else..." he said and walked away.
This was my last chance to convince her so I went to find Liliana.
"A party?" Liliana asked. "Whose party?
"Amanda's," I lied. If I told her it was Jake's house she'd deny me right away. "There will be a bunch of people there so it should be fun right?" I said.
"I guess...since when do you get invited to parties?" she asked.
"Ah...I don't know? I'm a junior now so maybe that's why?" I offered. "Does it matter why? The point is it'll be awesome!" I tried to sound enthusiastic so she'd take the bait.
"Sure, why not. I'll go," she said.
Yes! I'm saved! Maybe she'll change her mind about Jake at the party. I doubted that but at least she is going. I am willing to do anything to save my ass at the moment.
On the night of the party, I mentally prepared myself to face Jake and all the other people from school who act like I don't exist.
