The next day I felt little better. I felt better that my life didn't depend on a boy anymore. The birds seemed to chirp more than usual, the sky seemed to be brighter than usual. But, it was still a school day, sadly. Also, a creepo named Noah was still stalking me. I know I should at least say sorry to Ej or something, but that would just make him think that I want to talk to him, and if i'm honest I don't know why I kept loving him even after he constantly broke me.

Ricky texted me and asked if I was okay. I was a little surprised because he doesn't normally talk to me. I mean we talk in the theater here and there, but never really have a full conversation.

I texted him back because I didn't want to leave him on read.

Are you okay, Gina?   

                                  Yeah, I'm fine. Why do you ask?

I just heard you and Ej got into a fight, I'm sorry to hear that.

                          Yeah we did, and it's his fault, and quite frankly, not to be rude, It's none of your business.

Oh I'm so sorry I didn't mean to interfere..

                                                                     No, no it's fine, sorry for snapping, I'm just a little upset you found out. I don't even know who told you.

Ej told me, but I asked him what was wrong, so it's my fault.

                               It's fine Ricky, I forgive you.

Thank you Gina :)

                               I'm sorry for bringing this up, but If you want I can                             

tell you what happened.

You don't have to if you don't want to, but if it makes you feel better to tell me, you can.

He was so kind. I told him everything from the beginning. About how I move around a lot, about how I liked Ej, about the Lily thing, about the fight, and about how I'm done with Ej. I basically gave him my life story. It felt so good, and he was so understanding about everything. He knew just what to say. He handled it way better than Ej ever could. My heart was melting away by him. He's such a great guy. No wonder Nini fell in love with him. BUT I don't like him at all! Not one bit! He's just a friend and nothing more! Even if he is very cute and has the best personality ever... But I promise I don't like him. At least I don't think I do.. Even if I did, which I DON'T, Nini still loves him, and I could never do that to her. I already loved him once, and that didn't end well. He made it obvious I'm just his friend.

*The next day*

I woke up with this feeling of guilt. I pushed through the day, but I just couldn't help but think of what I could be with Ricky. Maybe I did like him.. But I had to put my feelings aside, and focus on my day.

I was walking around the park, thinking about Ricky. I knew I shouldn't have been, but I couldn't help it.

When I got to school, I thought it was an ordinary day, but I had no idea what was coming ahead.

I sat in my 6th period class as the announcements came on.

Good Morning East High Leopards!  Today's special is a chicken patty with broccoli and mashed potatoes! Aside from lunch today, get hyped up for the school exchange week!!

Everyone started chanting. School exchange week?! What is that?!

The school some of you are going to is....... North High!

A few of you all will be picked to be switched with kids at North High and will be spending a week here just like you will be spending a week there!

When did they come up with this stupid idea? And how come I didn't know about it? I was just hoping to not get picked. North High is a great school, but I couldn't stand to see Lily, she would torment me.

And the lucky people are. . . . . . . Ej . . . . .-

Now I was hoping even more to not get picked.

. . . . .  Ricky . . . . . .-

Hoping a little less not to get picked

And . . .  . . . . . . . Gina! . . .  .

"Terrific" I whispered under my breath sarcastically.

She listed off a few other names, but I didn't know any of them.

Was I, Gina Porter, stuck in a love triangle? It couldn't get worse.. Or could it?

*AUTHORS NOTE* I hope you all enjoyed this chapter, stick around for the next one!! I may add more characters !! (Let me know what you think in the comments below!)
