•••
Jess sat as Aaliyah was explaining her reasoning about the couples, and she apparently wanted Jess' help with it. "What do you want me to do?" Jess asked.
"Talk to them about each other!" Aaliyah explained. "See what they think of each other first."
Jess paused for a moment, maybe she should do this, the quieter group did help her with Ollie. "Sure." She nodded, walking over to Ivy. "Hey Ivy!" She greeted.
"Hey Jess! You've cheered up." Ivy smiled back.
"What do you think of Max?" Jess randomly asked.
Ivy looked confused. "What?"
"Just asking." Jess shrugged.
"Well he seems like a sweet guy-" Ivy started.
"Ok, bye!" Jess rushed away from her, she didn't need too much details from any of them, just enough to say they had some sort of attraction. "Clark! Hello!"
Clark looked up from his book. "Hi there."
"Curious to know, what do you think of Emily?" Jess quickly asked him.
"Fine when she isn't complaining about not getting a necklace." Clark sighed as he continued to read.
"But you agree she's pretty?" Jess added on.
Clark paused. "Sure-" He started.
"Great!" She smiled. "Rachel, hey."
"Yes Jess?" Rachel raised a brow.
"So Nova?" Jess started.
Rachel scoffed. "I hate him."
"But do you?" Jess smiled.
"I-" Rachel paused, getting annoyed, she picked her stuff up walking away. "I'm busy right now!"
"Bryan!" Jess greeted.
"Jess!" Bryan smiled.
"Quick question, what do you think about Marcy?" Jess asked him.
"Well, she swears a lot, but she tolerates my talking, which is very rare! People get bored after a while." Bryan explained to Jess. Bryan didn't seem startled or confused about the conversation at all, but he didn't seem to be startled by a question like that. Although he would be scared around them, Jess would have to watch out for that.
"So, hello Max." Jess quietly spoke to him, she didn't want to scares him into not talking.
"Yeah?" Max looked at her.
"Do you think Ivy is pretty cool?" Jess asked him.
"I-I guess." Max stuttered out, oh no maybe she was too out there with the question. "She's helped me talk more." He added on.
"That's so cute." Jess smiled, Max giving her a confused expression. "Nova."
Nova had been gently rolling a football across the ground, like a five year old nervous to play their first game. "I'm not sure I want to talk to you after today's incident." He sadly told her.
"Please, it's important." Jess begged him. "Thoughts on Rachel?"
"Rachel?! Miss Perfectionist?!" Nova exclaimed, making Rachel look up and glare at him. "We argue a lot."
"That's all?" Jess raised a brow.
"She stares at me a lot." Nova added.
"Stare back?" Jess smiled.
"If it's a long time, I wonder what she's doing." Nova shrugged.
Marcy seemed to be playing something on her phone when Jess got to her. "Marcy." She got her attention.
Marcy seemed to be startled a little, Jess worrying in case she got a swear feat towards herself. "Oh shit, hey." She greeted back.
"You and Bryan seem to get along." Jess casually said.
Marcy's eyes widened. "He doesn't get fuckin pissed off by my swearing! Weird shit, everyone does!"
(not calling bryan a weird shit don't worry i stan bryan, she's meaning it's weird he doesn't get pissed off lol)
The last person, who Jess was definitely scared to talk to. "Emily." She greeted, Emily looking away from her mirror.
"What do you want?" Emily asked, annoyed.
"Just asking a question." Jess shrugged.
"Make it quick." Emily warmed her.
"You been speaking to Clark recently?" Jess asked.
Emily dropped her mirror, luckily it hadn't smashed as it landed on the back. "Who told you?!" She whispered.
"No one." Jess shook her head. "But you just did." She glared, Jess should probably leave her be and report back to Aaliyah.
"How did it go?" Aaliyah asked when Jess sat back down beside her.
"Everyone seems to like each other, how did you even know this?!" Jess asked.
"I like doing this type of thing." Aaliyah shrugged. "I hope it works out for them all, it would be so cute." She smiled.
She was right, they would be cute.
(i have a PSA at the end about the couples if you want to read)
•••
Jess walked out of detention, she needed to talk to Ollie before they both left to clear a few things up. She found him climbing down the steps at the front door. "Oliver." She called.
"Jessica?" Ollie replied, confused. "Please tell me we aren't doing a full first name basis thing."
Jess shook her head. "No, I have to tell you something."
"What?" Ollie asked.
"You really do have a heart." Jess smiled at hum.
"Well, I need one Jess." Ollie furrowed his brows.
"No, I mean like a good heart!" Jess rolled her her eyes. "Got told what you were telling Elijah."
Ollie's eyes widened. "Aaliyah?" He sighed. "Yeah, well it's fine."
"I'm scared too." Jess told him. "If that helps."
"About what?" Ollie asked her.
"Well, I'm scared about my family too." Jess replies, Ollie looking at her. "Not because I don't want to do anything like that! I'm just worried they'll..." She explained.
"Judge me as soon as they see me." Ollie finished her sentence for her.
"Yeah." Jess quietly agreed. "I'm worried about yours too."
"There's not much to see." Ollie let out a laugh. "They wouldn't be very nice to you." He added. "Especially if my dad seen you're actually a nice person."
"Also." Jess started, pausing as she tried to find the right words. "Um..."
"Yes?" Ollie raised a brow.
"I-I'll do my best not to break your heart." Jess stuttered out.
(idk why but that was cute to write don't ask me why-)
"You'll do your best?" Ollie laughed.
"Well, I see in these movies they always promise stuff like that, but I don't want to upset anyone so I can't promise that in case I do." Jess explained to him. "But I highly doubt it'll be the case."
"Well, I accept your honesty." Ollie nodded. "Well, I'll promise not to break yours."
Jess' mouth fell open. "Don't promise! What did I just say!"
Ollie shrugged. "I have high hopes for us."
"So you're not scared I'll find someone else anymore?" Jess raised a brow.
"Nope, still scared." Ollie shook his head. "You?"
"I'm the same." Jess nodded, there was a silence before Jess spoke up again. "Well, I'm glad we talked that out." She have a quick smile. "I should probably get home."
"You're not gonna give your boyfriend a goodbye kiss?" Ollie smirked as Jess began to walk away.
"But your not my boyfriend." Jess furrowed her brows in confusion. "I thought you were sayi-" She started to explain, before Ollie interrupted her by putting his lips on hers. The kiss lasted a few moments before Ollie broke it. "Maybe I misheard." Jess corrected herself.
"Definitely did." Ollie winked, going on his motorbike and driving off.
"I didn't." Jess told herself, starting to walk home.
Guess she had a boyfriend now.

Jess put her phone down for a moment, only for it to ping and light up again with another message. "Look who it is." She smiled.

The front doorbell rang and Jess happily went down the stairs to see Ivy at the front door. Jess smiled and let her in. "Hey Jess! What's the news?!" Ivy asked.
"Oh it's a lot Ivy!" Jess nodded, running up the stairs, Ivy close behind as they walked into Jess' bedroom.
"Really?!" Ivy's eyes widened as she sat on Jess' bed. "Did Ollie do something bad?" She asked, Jess' face gave Ivy her answer. "Oh he did something good?!
"He's now my boyfriend!" Jess told her.
"Oh my god! Really! That's such good news!" Ivy smiled. "How did he do it?"
"He just said to me before I left that 'You're not gonna give your boyfriend a goodbye kiss?' I was a bit shocked!" Jess explained.
"He's a romantic at heart." Ivy winked at Jess, the other girl rolling her eyes.
"Well, he's asked me to get food with him later!" Jess added.
"Oh my god! Where to?" Ivy asked.
Jess paused, she actually didn't ask him. "I-I don't know." She shrugged.
"Ask him!" Ivy told him, Jess didn't want to be annoying though, should she ask him? "I'll phone him then." Ivy held out her hand for Jess to give her phone. "Hey Ollie, I'm asking about where you're taking Jess for something to eat?" She spoke into the phone, quickly ending the call once she got her answer. "Said he's taking you to Nando's."
Jess rolled her eyes. "Classic boy."
(amount of folk i've seen on their first date at nando's i'm JEALOUS)
"Well, you know what you're gonna wear right?" Ivy raised a brow.
"Yeah, I used to go all the time to Nando's, I know what type of stuff you need to wear." Jess nodded.
(😏😏)
"Well, do you want me to to leave you to it?" Ivy asked her, standing up.
"Ok, if you're sure." Jess nodded, before something popped into her head. "Oh, maybe you should start texting someone."
"I'm not jealous of you being in a relationship Jess, I'm fine just now." Ivy laughed.
"No, I just mean that maybe someone likes you, so maybe you should speak to them." Jess shrugged.
Ivy raised a brow. "Who?"
"I'm not spilling." Jess shook her head with a smile. "Figure it out."
"Ok, fine." Ivy sighed, smiling afterwards. "See you later."
(anno it's not realistic that ivy wasn't there for long oK but just imagine she was)
•••
Jess finished brushing her hair as the doorbell rang. "Hello Ollie." She greeted when she got to the front door.
"Hello Jess." Ollie smiled back.
Jess quickly put on her shoes, following Ollie outside. "Well, I'm ready to die on your motorbike again." She sighed.
"We're taking my car." Ollie told her, unlocking his car.
Jess was shocked, Ollie never took his car anywhere. "Sorry?" She asked.
"We're taking my car." Ollie repeated, getting in the drivers side. "Cant be bothered taking the bike."
"Can't be bothered or not wanting me to cry again?" Jess raised a brow as she got in the car herself.
"Definitely not the latter." Ollie winked at her.
"Very kind of you." Jess rolled her eyes, Ollie's music playing as he left her driveway. "You're music is...interesting."
"Good isn't it?" Ollie nodded.
"I like grime as much as the next person but maybe something better." Jess plugged in her phone instead, one of her favourite songs playing.
"No, turn the pop music off." Ollie groaned.
Jess huffed. "Fine, what about this."
"Didn't take you for one that would like Indie music." Ollie raised a brow as he listened along.
(i want to like indie but i don't know enough bands or songs to be part of that eLiTe group, if i say i like indie and just like the the wombats, i'm getting BATTERED AND IM DEED)
"Well, I wouldn't say that, I just like a few bands." Jess shrugged.
"Don't worry, I'm not gonna attack you for your indie choices, not one of those people." Ollie told her.
Jess furrowed her brows. "You just attacked me about pop!"
"Cause that's pop music." Ollie defended himself.
Jess shook her head a little as they drove up to Nando's, they entered the restaurant and Jess' face dropped. "Oh my god, whys everyone from our school here?" She hide her face away from the restaurant as they waited for a table.
"Because this is the closest Nando's?" Ollie raised a brow.
"No! I'm meaning like why are they here when we had to be here!" Jess whisper shouted. "Can't wait for the blog post."
"It'll be fine." Ollie tried to reassure her, a waiter came up to them and lead them to a table. The gasps from the other students as they walked past.
"Ollie? What are you doing with her?" A girl giggled as they sat down.
"Shut up." Ollie glared at her.
Jess put up her menu so it would hide her face. "This is so embarrassing." She told him.
Ollie sighed. "Sorry."
"It's not your fault, don't worry." Jess shook her head. "I'm gonna text Aaliyah to come with Elijah, that means eyes won't be so focused on us and more on the double date."
Ollie furrowed his brows. "Jess, this is our first date, I don't want them here."
"He's your best friend." Jess shrugged, Ollie rolling his eyes. "Aaliyah has already agreed she's coming."
Another few girls giggled as Jess closed her eyes while hiding behind the menu. "Jess, just ignore them." Ollie told her.
"I'm trying Ollie, but I don't like being the center of attention." Jess explained to them.
Ollie paused, not sure what to say. "Just...don't listen to them."
•••
Jess and Ollie didn't talk ever since Jess said that Aaliyah and Elijah were coming to join them, Ollie wasn't happy at all. Speaking of, the couple entered the restaurant and sat down beside them. "Hey guys!" Aaliyah smiled.
"Hey, thank you both for coming on a short notice." Jess greeted.
Elijah looked around the busy Nando's "Well, it seems very quiet here." He raised a brow.
Ollie has greeted them, Elijah seemed to understand what was going on. "What's wrong Ollie?" Jess asked him.
"Nothing." Ollie bluntly replied.
"Come to the bathroom with me?" Aaliyah nudged Jess, clearly wanting to get the blonde girl out the situation. "I could feel so much tension, what's happened?" She asked once they reached outside the toilets, not actually going in.
"He just went in a bad mood with me because I asked you two to come." Jess sighed. "Everyone's attention was on me, I hated it."
Aaliyah nodded as she tried to think. "Right, let's just calmly talk to him and he'll hopefully come around." Jess followed her back to the table, seeing Ollie and Elijah were having a conversation before the two girls sat back down.
"What are you wanting to eat?" Jess asked Ollie. Ollie just huffed.
"And that means?" Aaliyah raised a brow.
"He means he wants the Chicken Butterfly." Elijah told them.
"You could tell that easy?" Jess furrowed her brows in confusion.
"Yes, I have the secret ability to mind read people, I have not known this man before and have never been to this place many times with him." Elijah sarcastically replied to her, Aaliyah letting out a cough for him to tone down the sarcastic comments.
"Well, I know what I'm getting." Aaliyah smiled trying to ease the tension. "Jess, what about you?" She asked.
"Still thinking." Jess replied and that's when Jess seen it, Ollie rolled his eyes when she said that. Jess was pissed off, mega pissed off. "Ollie, stop making faces behind my back." She glared at him.
"I'm not making faces." Ollie bluntly replied to her.
Jess furrowed her brows. "You just did!"
"It's okay, Ollie don't make faces." Aaliyah gave him a look.
"I do prefer arguing over eating." Elijah muttered, Aaliyah giving a look to stop.
Jess looked at the menu again, Ollie this time was making a fool out of her. Now Jess' anger turned into sadness. "Ollie stop it!" She exclaimed.
Ollie's eyes widened. "What!?"
"You keep slagging me off!" Jess told him. "Why do you get in these moods with me?! I just invited them here what's so terrible about that?!"
Ollie had now realised what damage he had done. "Wait, Jess-"
"No, you ruined your chances." Jess shook her head, standing up and began to walk away. "I knew I was gonna be treated like the rest of them."

just wanted to say a PSA before we continue
i'm sorry that there is no couples that are same sex
cause i understand that some of the characters are bisexual and we have one pansexual character
but they are all in opposite sex couples
i personally felt that max and ivy would be a good couple and marcy and bryan
i don't want it to seem in anyway i'm like pushing away any LGBTQ+ characters into a relationship with another character that is also LGBTQ+ because that is absolutely not the case
i hope people who have made these characters know that and are happy who i have got them coupled up with
if you don't please tell me
for example i didn't think ivy and marcy would have made a good couple but would have got on more as friends
i considered max and Bryan but i felt the girls suited them better
i just wanted to clear that up (i wrote all of the above after my little weird end note below)
cheer up jess
just kidding
i'm crying for her x
poor gal
ollie has his reasons
i mean you might think it's not good enough
