There was no way Joe knew him... but he didn't seem to like him for some reason. Maybe just because he was strange to Joe and knew me already. So he must know it was someone from before.
"Hi. Haven't seen you in a while."

-Joe's POV-
It had been such a great day. Jazz was fitting right in with the people in the school that talked to me. Too bad a lot of the others in the school were so shallow. But at least the good ones liked her. We had been talking about where to go after school when Gillian joined us before 3rd period. She immediately agreed to follow us home in her car and hang out too. That way we would have even teams for anything. Her and Shannon, me and Jazz. I had been trying to ignore it most of the day, but every time I thought of science, a feeling of hatred surged up. Bryan had been trying to get with Jazz. Every time I saw him in the halls, my eyes narrowed and I stepped closer to her. I felt protective. He couldn't have my Jazz. I shook my head slightly every time I thought of her that way. She wasn't mine. And might never be.
The last bell rang and I met Nick, Aly and Regina before going to my car. Someone called out to Jazz... calling her Jasmine. An unfamiliar voice.
Jazz: Hi. Haven't seen you in a while.
Boy: I just found out you were up here. Been here about a month.
Jazz: Congrats.
Boy: You going to introduce us?
Jazz: Joe, Nick, Regina and Aly. *points to each of us as she says our names* Guys, this is Dan. But... we were just on our way.
Dan: No time for me anymore Jasmine?
Jazz: I thought we had decided that already. Or did you forget about that?
There was a bite to her voice that made me hate this boy.
Dan: I was hoping we could just put that all behind us Jasmine.
Jazz: *narrows her eyes* You'd like that wouldn't you? Get me to trust you again. Just so you could do it ALL over again. I know what you're like Dan.
Dan: *grabs her wrist and stops her as she turns on her heel*
I had to restrain myself. I felt like breaking this boy's neck. I tensed myself though, if he made ONE move to hurt her then I WOULD get him away. Forcibly
Dan: Please Jasmee.
That nick name was unfamiliar to me. But she froze at it and looked at him curiously. The way he had said it had made me stop too. He spoke it so lovingly, so tenderly that I was immediately annoyed with him again. He had been closer to her than I was.
Jazz: I haven't been called that since.... well... you.
Dan: *smiles a little* I never meant to hurt you Jasmine.
She gave him a look that said quite clearly she was about to slap him
Dan: Alright. At the time I did. But I don't know what was wrong with me. I should never have pushed you like that. I was wrong Jasmee. Dead wrong.
Jazz: You're right. You were wrong Dan. Please let me go now.
Dan: *whispers something to her that I couldn't hear. But her entire body trembled when he said it and then he let her go. She was staring at him. What was going on?*
Jazz: *takes a deep breath and turns away from Dan. I could see a small tear in the corner of her eye* See you around Dan. *she climbed into my car and closed the door*
We all watched as he walked away. Then we got in.
Regina: What was THAT all about?
Jazz: Nothing. Hurry. Gillian is probably waiting.
"Alright" I didn't bother her, like everyone else in the car was. I just let her be as I found Gillian's car and led her to my house. Shannon had already been there before, so she knew how to get there without me.
We had played for almost 2 hours straight before Gillian and Shannon admitted that they had loads of homework. When they left, Regina took over the video games. Apparently she spent a lot of time playing them. Only Jayme was any competition for her. Jayme had joined us about 30 minutes after we had all gotten home. Her and Regina already seemed close enough to be sisters. They were laughing together in the other room, playing who knows what game. Nick and Aly had gone to the kitchen to get something to eat. Jazz was quiet. She had been for most of the time after school. I decided to try to talk to her. "Jazz?"
Jazz: Hmm?
"Can we talk?"
She thought for a whole minute then nodded.
Jazz: But not here.
I gestured at the stairs and she led me to her room. She sat on the bed and I sat next to her.
Jazz: What do you want to talk about?
I almost lost my nerve. Sitting alone with her. She seemed so fragile at the moment. Even Crystal had been quiet as she had stayed loyally next to Jazz all day. She had followed us up and was now curled up at the foot of the bed while Jazz and I were sitting against the top.
Jazz: *looks at me questioningly. I had been quiet a while....*
I got to now. I took a deep breath* "About Dan"
