Julies pov

"Hey underachiever" Flynn yells as she makes her way to our lockers. "Hey disappointment" I yell back.

"Still hung up on Nick?" She asks. I hadn't even noticed I was staring. "Come on Flynn, you know I moved on after the breakup" "Totally" she responds in a sarcastic tone.

I couldn't still like Nick. Could I? At least I don't think I could.

"We should get going to History. You know what Mr Blake can be like" Flynn says rolling her eyes and snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Oh yeah totally".

After what seemed like forever, Flynn and I walk back to our lockers to see a group of people crowded around them, laughing and whispering.

"What's all this about?" I hear Flynn say. "I have no idea" I respond, pushing through the crowd.

When I see the last song I had written with my Mom before she passed had been taped to my locker and vandalised, my eyes start to swell up.

"Oh my god Jules" I hear Flynn mumble. I didn't have any interest in answering her.

How could this happen? Did someone find my diary? Was this all they had found?

As if it couldn't get any worse, the girl that had been the reason to all of my childhood problems struts round the corner with her hand interlocked with Nicks'.

"Carrie" I mutter angrily under my breath. She must have done this. It had to be her!

"Is baby Julie gonna cry" she says in a mocking tone. It's obvious that i want to cry. I'm not exactly trying to hide it.

Without a second thought, I run to the school exit and through the doors, ignoring the calls of the ladies from behind the office desk.

I run as fast I can with no idea where I am going.

It's pouring with rain which means I can barely see a thing.

Suddenly as I'm running down the sidewalk I bump into someone and come to an abrupt halt. I quickly turn around, wiping the tears from my face hoping that it isn't someone I know.

"I am so sorry!" I say as I turn around.
"It's fine. Honestly it was my fault" He says biting his lip with a smile.

He kind of looks like the lead singer from sunset curve. It couldn't be. Could it possibly be? "LUKE PATTERSON?!" I yell. "Shh" he whispers.

"Hey, are you okay?" He says noticing my puffy eyes. I guess wiping the tears away didn't work.

"I'm fine" I say. "Are you sure, because you don't look fine" he says with genuine concern in his voice. "Just a rough day at school" I mutter. "Do you wanna talk about it?" He says.

Honestly I was expecting him to be one of those celebrities that seem really nice but in reality are really horrible when you meet them but he is the exact opposite.

"Why not. It's not like I've got anything better to do anyway." I say trying to smile.

I explain everything about my mom, Carrie, the locker, absolutely everything. "It felt really good to talk about it" I say, managing to give a genuine smile.

Luke's pov

I feel horrible for this girl, after losing her mom she's had to go through this. I can't believe how careless some people are.

"Hey I didn't catch your name" I say "Oh it's Julie" she says.

A pretty name for a pretty girl.

Where did that come from Patterson, you've got a girlfriend snap out of it.

"That's a nice name" I say, barely managing to not sound creepy.

"So then Julie" I start, "How about I give you a vip pass for my next show to make up for the whole, you know bumping into you thing" I blurt out.

I need some new friends so this will work out perfectly, hopefully!

"Are you sure? I mean I was kind of the one who ran into you." she says. She sounds excited to be honest. "Totally" I exclaim. "I mean yeah, thanks" she says smiling. "Anytime".

I offer to walk her home and she's fine with it.






















A/N: It's been months but I decided to rewrite some chapters because I feel my writing has gotten a lot better recently.
