"Excuse me?" Jenny asked incredulously.
"Its true!" Amy laughed "He came right up to me and asked if I could ask you to sleep with him."
"What did you say?"
"I said that he mustve got the wrong Jenny cos the one I know isnt a slut and would rather kill herself then be with him." Amy grinned. "Idiot."
Jenny laughed then looked over at Gerard who was being awfully quiet even for him.
"Gerard? You okay?" she asked slowly. He shook his head slightly then stood up.
"Sorry, um, I gotta be somewhere."
"Yes, you need to be here!" Jenny said but it was too late. He had already left the room leaving the girls to share a worried glance.
"Whats all that about?" Amy asked quietly. Jenny shrugged sadly.
"Dont have a clue."
Gerard walked until he reached the toilets then shut himself in and sat down, head in his hands. Hed been struck with two things this week. First of all he realised how much he liked Jenny, as more than a friend but he knew shed never go for a guy like him, not with the way he looked,
Secondly, he realised that guys were going to be interested in Jenny. Even if it was only jocks now, if a nice guy came to her she wouldnt say no. Hed lose her and he couldnt stop it. He had to do something but....what?
The only option he had was to say nothing and.... well forget it. They were never going to be closer than this and he had to accept it.
End of story
He stood up and walked slowly back to class with one thought firmly in his mind - hed rather have Jenny as a friend than not at all. Strangely, his new resolve wasnt comforting.
As he entered, Jenny looked up and caught his eye. He smiled slightly then looked away, he had to stop.
Stay detached or He wouldnt make it. He slumped down next to her and Amy.
"You ok?"
"Yeah." He muttered "Im fine."
Though inside he knew he would never be fine again.
