experience. When Alec lets go of me he takes his seat and pats beside him. I shake my head in response, walking over to the bed to sit with Jake.
    We are all talking about stories involving Jake, figuring we could embarrass him out of his slumber. “Did I ever tell you when I yelled for him at the door to come kill the spider in my room?” Everyone looks at me and is laughing before I even realize this is going to be good. They all shake their heads, indicating I hadn’t told them of this before. “Well, Jake came busting through the front door of my dorm, looking all bad ass like he was going to do some serious ass kicking. When he asked me what was wrong, I was cowering on my bed with my pillow, and just pointed up at the ceiling above him. He looked up and laughed at me for being scared of a spider. That was until the silly thing dropped from the ceiling and he screamed like a little girl. But not before running and jumping on my bed and hiding behind me for his own safety from the big bad spider.” We are all laughing hysterically when the door opens and my mouth drops open as to who’s standing there staring at us.
    “Well, hello, Becca. I’ve just come to stop in and see Jake before going to see Keegan, my boyfriend .” She drags out the last words and makes me cringe in anger. “What, you don’t have enough to keep yourself busy, Sarah?” My brother gives her a dirty look that makes me wonder what he’s talking about. “I never have too much going on to prevent me from making this one’s life a little darker.” Charlotte shoots up from Drake’s lap and goes right in front of Sarah. “You better get your skanky bitch ass out of this room, before I let my cousin drag you out again by your hair like she did before.” I see my cousin smirk and so does Alec, who had witnessed my little takedown with Sarah this past school year. “Jake doesn’t even like you, Sarah. Just get out of here and stop wasting your time. Go see Keegan and help him remember his last several months. Oh, wait, you can’t because he knew you were a slut and broke up with you for me.” She takes a step forward but Charlotte puts her hand up to stop her. Before Charlotte can tell her off, Drake beats her to it.
    “We all know the only reason you have Keegan now, Sarah, is because he can’t remember Becca. Don’t think you’ve won. Because if he remembered everything he had with Becca, he wouldn’t touch you with a ten foot pole. Jake won’t go near you, so give it up.” She looks like her head is about to spin around and have steam start coming out of her ears.  “We will see about that.” With that, she spins and rushes out the room off to see her precious Keegan, I’m sure. That knowledge makes me nauseous until I hear something that lifts my heart and soul. “Thank god, the wicked bitch of the west is gone.” I almost don’t want to turn to the side in case I’m dreaming. It came out raspy, but even so my heart melts at hearing his voice. “Jake, thank god.” I turn and hug him, causing him to wince slightly. “I’m sorry… for everything.” I have tears coming down my cheeks and he brushes them away. “And you should be sorry.” I blanch at this and wait for him to tell me he hates me for all this trouble. For dragging him into this and almost killing him. “You promised you’d never tell anyone about that damn spider, Becca.”

    Trying not to blink just in case my eyes open again to find him still in a coma, I just stare at Jake. “Becca.” I hear shuffling and a door closing from behind me. I turn and see that they’ve left me alone with Jake. When I look into his eyes and see that he’s staring at me with worry, I break into tears. He goes to put his arm on me and I push myself off the bed and move to the corner of the room. “What are you doing? I can’t touch you if you’re over there.” I shake my head profusely because I know I don’t deserve this. “I don’t
