****(Serena's POV)

Kenny has been getting on my nerves lately. That boy just can't stop talking about Dawn! Almost everyday he texts me and asks me about Dawn, sometimes I don't even respond. Ash, on the other hand, took the news of me being his tutor for math pretty well. He said he also knew he needed the help and was glad I could help him, at least a little bit. Ash has also been helping me with my Spanish, my teacher even said I had gotten better and that I should continue practicing my vocabulary. 

Today Dawn and I are going to a coffee shop and talk about stuff.

****

I arrived at the coffee a bit earlier than Dawn. I ordered my drink and sat down by the windows.

As I looked out the window I began to think about someone, a boy, but it wasn't clear to me whom I was thinking about. I kept thinking, maybe I could get a full image of him. I don't know why, but I feel like I love that person. Maybe because just thinking about him makes me have butterflies in my stomach. Then in a flash, the image became clear, it was..Ash. But, why him? Do i really love him? There's no denying it, I like Ash. 

"Hey!" My thoughts were stopped, and my heart dropped. Dawn, she liked Ash, and she had even told me that. How could I have fallen in love with someone my best friend likes?! "Serena, are you okay?"

"Oh yeah, don't worry. I'm fine!" I  faked a smile.

"Are you sure?" She asked me worried.

"Lets just say there's this guy I really like an-" Dawn didn't even let me finish, she quickly sat down in front of me and grabbed my hands.

"Tell. Me. Everything!" She smiled widely.

'If only you knew' I thought.

"Well, what do you want to know?" I asked, hopefully she wouldn't ask for his name.

"Do I know him?" She looked straight at me. 

"Yes?" That came out mare like a question.

"Let me see, it has to be someone you hang out with often..." Her eyes widened and she gasped in realization. "IT'S ASH ISN'T IT?!"

I closed my eyes as she said that, 'Please don't be mad, please don't be mad' I chanted in my head.

"Why didn't you tell me before?" She tightened her grip on my hands.

"I-I just found out today." Silence was all I got. Tears started to form in my eyes, "Dawn please don't be mad, I promise I won't tell him anything and you can have him and-"

"Who said you could give up so easily?" She let go of my hands. I lifted my head in confusion. "Yeah you heard me right." She smiled and wiped away a tear. 

"B-but what about you saying you love Ash and everything you've told me about him?" I leaned in a bit to make sure she wasn't lying.

She started laughing like crazy. "You seriously thought I liked Ash?!" She took in a deep breath to calm herself down. "First of all, I was doing all of that to hopefully make you jealous. Second, why would I like Ash if I barely know him, plus his head is so high up in the clouds that I don't even know if I could like him, even if I tried. Third, there are many guys who are after me, even though I don't like them, Ash just doesn't appeal to me. And to all everything together, Ash just isn't my type. Have you seen those male K-pop artist and anime characters, they're H-O-T." 

I just looked at Dawn in total shock, what the heck was wrong with her?! Does she have any idea how scared I was to ruin our friendship because I thought she liked the same guy I like?! I sighed, "So you don't like Ash?" 

"Nope." She giggled. "Am I a good actress or what?" She sat up proudly.

"You've got that right." I stood up and gave her a huge hug. "I'm glad our friendship isn't ruined!" 

"No guy would ever ruin our friendship, Serena!" She hugged me back.

After we, no she, finished talking about how cute K-pop artists were, we said our goodbyes and headed home.

How will I face Ash tomorrow? Worse yet, how will I deal with Dawn getting all pushy on me about telling Ash my true feelings?

I guess I'll find out tomorrow..

****

Sorry for the long wait, but I have the rest of the next week off of school so I'll most likely be able to post another chapter throughout that time period. 

I watched "The Divergent Series: Insurgents" yesterday in 3D and it was a great movie, I recommend you guys to watch it.

Anyway, as you read, Dawn made the whole liking Ash thing a lie. I didn't want Dawn to be all sad because Serena likes him, just like a did in the other fanfic I wrote, so I did this instead. I actually prefer this because I like Dawn and I want her to be happy. Hopefully you guys prefer this side of Dawn better than the depressed one.
