Jack and I walked back to the dorm quietly. I held the remains of the camera in my hands. once we got back to the dorm, I threw the camera away. I laid on my bed holding the blanket, not caring if Jack saw the torn, dirty, cloth in my arms. My eyes burned with tears. "(y/n) It's just a camera..." Jack said. "No it's not just a camera...." I said. "It's not a big deal, you can get a new camera." he sat next to me, rubbing my back for comfort. I shrugged his hand off my back. "It is a big deal!" I raised my voice. "I captured half my life on that camera! All the most Important moments of my life! All the people I can't see anymore! It IS a big deal, Sean!" I shouted. "Y/n, It's just a camera! The important things are the photos! those should be the thing that you cherish the most!" he started raising his voice as well. He stood up close to me. "why do you care so much about a dumb camera?" he said softly. A hot tear streamed down my face. "my grandma gave it to me... before she died." I said, trailing off. "I'm sorry." Jack said, wiping away my tears with his thumb. I rested my hand on his. He pulled me into a hug. "I'm sorry your camera is broken, and I'm sorry about your grandma. But you can't cling to the past like this. You have to move on, your life is just beginning and you have to take risks to do what you want, and hanging on to the past isn't the way to go." He said, swaying us back and forth, to sooth me. It helped. "Thanks Jack. I'm sorry." I said. "It's ok." he replied. We heard a knock at the door. I let go of Jack and walked to the door. "hi!" a tall girl said. "hello." I said. "I'm Ella. (idk I literally asked a girl in my class for a random name lol) I'm having a party for the new students and wanted to know if you'd come?" she asked. She was tall, skinny, and blonde. She had a healthy body but had a large amount of acne. "We'd love to. What time is it?" Jack said from behind me. "5 to whenever" she smiled. "we'll be there." I nodded. "see you then! It's at the park." she said walking away. I closed the door. "let's start getting ready." I shrugged. It was 4:30 now. I walked into the bathroom. I curl my hair and did my makeup. I walked out and grabbed my phone. I figured a t-shirt and jeans was ok. We walked back to the park to see tons of teens dancing to music and drinking. We walked up to the new kids and introduced our self. I was talking to a girl named Katie she was pretty cool. She had sandy blonde hair and a really good sense of humor. Jack tapped my on the shoulder. "(y/n) I'm gonna go get a drink. Want something?" he asked. "I'm good." I said. He nodded and walked away. 'tonight is gonna be fun' I tought to myself.
