team cole is the only valid option and here's why
alex is basically love bombing jackie every chance he gets. saying ' i love you ' after only a few months of dating is genuinely insane, plus he knew jackie most likely wasn't even ready for it with the way he said ' it's okay if you don't say it back' like alex... we know you did that on purpose.
cole crashes out because he got a terrible accident with his leg. anyone would be more than upset if they were at the peak of their athletic career and had a terrible injury. while i don't agree with the way cole was the one to put bleach in her shampoo, he has more green flags than alex.
jackie wasn't even comfortable to tell alex she wasn't comfortable with the PDA alex and her were doing like girl.. RED FLAG.
plus, alex was CLEARLY doing it in his one-sided competition with cole. he didn't even tell jackie that cole didn't even know paige was his girlfriend.
cole literally did a GAZILLION things for jackie, without her even asking. exhibit A : helping her with the fundraising for the fall formal, fixing her DECEASED sister's teapot, respecting her wishes to be friends, helping her with her driving, auctioning himself for the fundraising AGAIN, listening to her problems... need i say more ??
while i agree that jackie should've said something to alex before she left, i feel like she also was in the middle of her dead family so like it cancels out...
anyways, i'm sooo excited for season 3 AHHHHH.
