Description

Guest and Jake Newman met in kindergarten when they were 4 years old. When Guest saw kids bullying Jake for being overweight, they chased the bullies away and became Jake's only friend. They went to the same schools all the way through middle school. Jake got bullied every day for being fat, but Guest always came to his rescue. Eventually, they started dating... but after two years together, Jake had to transfer schools in 8th grade. Before saying goodbye, they got matching silver necklaces with small heart charms so they'd recognize each other when they met again. Four years later, as seniors in high school, Guest transferred to Jake's school. During their time apart, Guest had stress-eaten to cope with the sadness of losing Jake and gained weight. Meanwhile, Jake had worked out and dieted to become the perfect guy for Guest when they reunited. Guest recognizes Jake and tries to say hello, but Jake just walks past and says something cruel. Guest ends up heartbroken.
