Jaymie's story pt. ??

My mind was going mush after looking at the computer screen for hours waiting and watching for him to possibly come online or even to text me. I was doing homework kind of, but not really paying attention to anything other than my own thoughts that drowned out any thinking process needed for schoolwork.
I jumped when my phone buzzed and I quickly looked to see who it was. Natalie was calling. I quickly answered,
"Hey, what's up?"
"Hey, can you meet me by the park. Like, NOW!"
My heart stood still. Any time she was talking about "the park" I knew it had to do with Jake, my ex. My blood began to boil as I was running through scenarios in my mind.
"Why do I need to meet you at the park, is Jake there?" my voice was stern as I got up from the computer and grabbed my keys and wallet that were laying on my bed.
"I'll explain when you get here, just get here." she hung up.
"CRAP!" I yelled as I ran out the door.
"Jaymie!" mom yelled after me, "Where are you going??" she was following me to the car, I didn't stop I just opened my door and got in. Mom got there and knocked on the window. I shoved my keys into the car and  rolled down the window.
"I'll be back 45 minutes tops, I promise." I said turning the key.  My car roared to life and I put the car in drive.
"Where are you going young lady." She grabbed my wheel and glared at me.
"To meet Natalie. Everything is fine, I will be back I promise." I began to roll up the window and she recoiled her hand from the wheel and sat there dumbfounded.  I jolted forward and I was on my way, not caring to look back or to even glance in the rear view mirrors. I pulled out my phone again and dialed Natalie's number. She didn't pick up and I threw my phone on the seat next to me, growling in frustration. I had no idea what I was getting myself into at the moment but I knew this situation had to do with Jake.
    My phone buzzed and I picked it up. Natalie texted me saying "Where r u??" I pressed call and held the phone to my ear. She didn't answer. I was stopped at a stoplight and sent her a text back, "2 min away." She called me and I picked up, "Whats up."
"OK, so don't get mad, let me explain..."
"Are you with Jake?" I asked sternly.
"I knew you would catch on."
"Well, Duh."
"So, he just asked me to come hook up with him at the park." she paused for my reaction. I didn't say anything so she continued, "And I don't know what to do, I told him I'd be there." I heard her voice start to choke up like she was about to cry while on the flip-side,  I was exploding with rage on the inside. I swallowed hard and sighed.
"This is what you are going to do - Are you there right now?"
"Almost."
"Alright, when you get there, do everything as planned, start making out with him or something. Then I will be there soon and when I show up I am going to come to the car and have a little surprise party. Sound good?"
"I'm here. He's here. Holy crap. Jay, I don't think I can do this..."
"Believe me it will be worth it." My fury was bleeding away into just plain adrenaline; my heart was pounding out of my chest.
"He's coming to my car I have to go!" and she was disconnected. The park was just around the corner and I waited by the curb of the street before I slowly turned into the parking lot with my lights off. I went into the parking lot but kept going around to the other side of the park to park my car away from them. I slowly got out after parking and walked over to Natalie's car. There they were, kissing. She seemed so uncomfortable, I saw her look up and I smiled at her with a glint in my eye. I stood with my arms crossed and kicked the door. Jake broke away and stared at me with wide, scared eyes. We just sat there for a few moments. Me glaring, him peeing his pants and Natalie burying her face in her hands.
               I walked away then without a word. I heard someone get out of a car and get into another one. I heard a car start and then speed away. I didn't bother to look back, not to mention I was trying to hold back my laughter. I heard another car start up and I saw Natalie driving over to where my car was parked. I sped up then to get to her while I burst out laughing.
