Jake and Jessie Split Up

Jake let it slip that his real name is Josh.

“Josh, your real name is Josh?” questioned Jessie.

“Yes,” said Jake, er, Josh.

“Why have you never told me this before?” said Jessie.

“Oh, I don’t know, I just prefer Jake.”

“Seriously?”

“Yeah, no big deal.”

“No big deal,” exclaimed Jessie. “What your real name is, is no big deal?” said Jessie.

“No,” said Jake.

“No!” repeated Jessie incredulously.

“I don’t know why you are getting all bent out of shape over this,” said Jake.

“Jake isn’t your real name? You are telling me this after we have been going out for years. And you don’t know why I am getting all bent out of shape, as you put it?”

“No.” Jake shrugged.

“I didn’t know your real name,” Jessie wailed.

“Jess.” Jake reached out to Jessie.

Jessie pushed him away. “Don’t touch me.”

“Oh, come on Jess, what’s the big deal?”

“What’s the big deal?”

“Yeah,” said Jake.

“What else don’t I know about you?”

“Nothing.”

“How do I know that?”

“Because I am telling you.”

“Seriously, Jake. Oh sorry, Josh.”

Jess.” Jake reaches out to her again.

“No.” Jessie holds up her hands. “I can’t be near you right now.” Jessie picked up her things and left.

“Jess,” said Jake. “You can’t be serious?”

And Jessie and Josh split up. Just like that.

Over a misunderstanding? They argued? Truth is, they had drifted apart

Drugs are not good for your sex life as a couple. Drugs take you up to greater heights, amazing heights, mindboggling highs and hot hot sex together.

The problem is, you start looking for those highs all the time. You want that mind boggling, teeth chattering fuck every time you screw, but you don’t get it, of course you don’t, and sex can seem a bit dull after that. Ho hum. And you become friends, and there is nothing wrong with being friends, in fact, it is so much better in so many ways, but it doesn’t feel like it once you have had nirvana. 

It makes it all feel like, what is the point really. I want that, with you, but I’m not getting it and, well, um, what can you do.

Well, that’s what forlorn Jake would tell anyone who would listen.

Jake and Jessie used to party with us, they were a part of our dance party group.

Cam and Sebastian, Matt and I, Andy and Frankie, and Jake and Jessie we all used to party together. Cam and Sebastian were bros, straight bros, they were always together, best mates. They used to pick up girls at gay dance parties. Andy and Frankie had been together longer and they were the ones who introduced us to the whole drug thing. Jake and Jessie had been going out for 4 years, perhaps. And there was Matt & me.

We felt sorry for Jake, he was really devastated when Jess dumped him, over what he thought was nothing. His real name.

Jessie and Jake really took to E’s and dancing like the rest of us. Jessie especially. She used to work Jake over something fierce the day after we’d all been out dancing. I mean, Jake was into it, don’t get me wrong. The two of them were hot together. And then suddenly they weren’t.

Jake was devastated.
