“Here’s the psychopathic brother, you…” Jay didn’t finish what he was saying when a bottle suddenly crashed on his head.
The students gasped but Rico looked unapologetic as he looked down at Jay’s bloody face on the floor.
“What did you do Rico?” Bryan walked in with the look of shock evident on his face. He squatted towards Jay to check if he was still alive and luckily he was breathing.
“The fuck were you thinking to attack him like that?” Bryan scolded Rico.
“But everyone saw he started it, he hit me twice and you can see my lips and nose are bleeding” Rico rolled his eyes, not at all feeling sorry.
“But you should been careful. What if he died?” Bryan wasn’t letting this one go.
“So what?” Rico moved closer to Bryan so he could be on the same level as him. “What if I killed him? What do you care? You think you’re better because you’ve found a goddamn girl willing to stay by your side but have you told her about us? Does she know-”
Bryan cut Rico off with a slap. Rico held his face for a while before nodding and roughly walking away. Some guys already carried Jay to the hospital and Bryan was left with Sydney.
“Where’s Jake?” He asked but Sydney shrugged not knowing where he was.
“I’ll take you home then” He shook his head and began to his car while Sydney looked to her left and right before following him.

Jake did not return home immediately. He was at an empty park, the only light was the street light. He sat on the bench and shut his eyes tight as he recalled all that happened earlier.
A bet, it was all a bet, all he had with Julia was not real but how did she play him so well and made him think it was for real. It hurts badly, his eyes were red and he tried not to cry but he can’t help it. It hurt so much.
“Damn you Julia!!!!” He screamed so loud that the bats sleeping on the pole flew away.
“I can’t believe you’re here crying while she’s pooping champagne with her friends celebrating her wins on once again adding you to the list of guys she fooled”
Jake paused with he heard Amanda’s voice and footsteps but he did not say anything. Amanda sat beside him.
“I told you” She slowly bring her hands to his face and made him face her “Julia is evil, I said you shouldn’t trust her because she had you and every step you take. It’s like you both were in a book and she knows every chapters because she was the one writing it” She tells him.
Jake shut his eyes tight and pushed her hands away from his face.
Amanda scoffed. “Do you think staying here and feeling depressed will make you feel better? Why not just get back at her” She moved closer to him and leaned to his face.
“I know a really good place we can go, be alone and trust me Jake. I’ll make you forget all about her” She whispered on his lips. “It will look like she never existed”
The alcohol effects were there but Jake could still think straight, he turned away from her and she rolled her eyes angrily.
“I don’t get it Jake, she fucking fooled you!!” She almost yelled.
“And you think sleeping with you would solve everything? Amanda you’re a girl for crying out loud and you really should throwing yourself at people!” Jake told her.
“I’m not throwing myself at anyone, I’m just trying to help you. Besides I like you” She moved closer to him again. “More than Julia ever did, I’m real Jake” She was pleading this time.
Jake shook his head. “It’s not mutual”
“Why? Still can’t stop thinking about Julia. I just told you she fooled you!!” Amanda yelled at him.
“And I’m telling you I don’t care!!” He yelled back.
There was a moment of silence before Amanda broke it
“You know what Jake? Go to hell and you deserve everything that’s happening to you right now” She moved closer to him. “Every damn thing that’s going on in your life, from your parents wedding and Julia and no matter how you try to hate her. It’s gonna be so fucking hard because you’ll see her everything and maybe then you’d come back to me!!” She smirked at him.
Jake didn’t say anything. He just watched her blab and left when she was done. Damn right, it will be so hard to hate Julia because their parents are getting married soon.

SATURDAY- ZAYN’S MANSON-β’β’
It was a dull morning, at least that was what two people would use to describe how today felt. Jake just finished showering and dressing up, he opened the door to meet Julia coming out of her room which was opposite him.
If it was before, he would have grabbed her arms and pulled her to his room and maybe kiss her juicy strawberry lips for few minutes before they step down for breakfast but now…
Jake shook his head, it’s too early to think of things like this and besides she showed him her true colors yesterday. He tried walking past her but she held his hands stopping him.
“We still need to talk about yesterday Jake please” Julia pleaded.
Jake stared at her hands on his before slowly looking at her face. For a very short while, he looked worried but it was replaced with disgust.
“What do you expect? I give you a standing ovation and tell you you’ve done a lot real good job for playing me like that?” He asked her.
“Jake I…”
“Breakfast is getting cold” Sydney came to them. Her eyes briefly went to their hands before she walked back to the dinning.
Julia slowly let Jake go and they both went to the dining room to settle for breakfast.
The dining room was filled with food, Jake sat where she won’t be able to make eye contact with Julia and she could only just roll her eyes.
“So since the wedding is tomorrow why won’t we start following the procedures for today?” Sydney asked.
“What procedure?” Zayn asked.
“The bridal shower” Sydney replied. “You’re not allowed to see Martha until tomorrow at the alter so we are planning to lodge a hotel and celebrate her last night of being single and you should do the same too”
“That’s what should be done Zayn” Martha agreed with Sydney.
“After breakfast we are leaving and you both can stay here. Invite your friends if you want” Sydney said with a happy smile.

After breakfast, Sydney was packing the bags for the trip while Julia was making calls with her friends.
“Yes it’s something I don’t want you guys to miss on” She said. “I’ll see you there, thanks” After hanging up, she saw that Sydney had packed all the bags.
“You seem so excited about my parents wedding” Julia mumbled.
“Who wouldn’t be excited about marriage? It’s a good thing” She replied.
Julia sighed. “I guess I’m just the pathetic one here”
Sydney moved closer to her and held her hands. “I’m really sorry about Jake but what happened has happened. Maybe this is a way of bringing your parents together” She tried to sound hopeful.
“I guess” Julia shrugged.
“But if I were you, I’d still fight for the one I love and if he comes back or anything that happens means it’s meant to be” Sydney added in a soft and gentle voice before taking the bags and going out.
