"I can do this."

Danni was sitting on the bleaches at the football field.

The only thing running threw her mind was the confession she had and what she was going to say.

"Hey."

James walked over and sat down next to her.

"What'd you wanna talk about?"

Danni inhaled.

Should she tell him?

Act like everything's fine and lie?

"I know you have a girlfriend."

James looked down and sighed.

"Danni I-"

She touched James's arm.

"I totally understand. She was first, James. I don't want to take her place and I don't want to make you stay with me."

"I feel horrible. How long have you known? How'd you find out?"

"I've known for a while now. Remember that night you took me back to your house?"

He nodded.

"I overheard you and your mom talking."

He looked at the ground trying to remember.

"Shot, Danni. I didn't know."

"It's fine James don't worry."

"I'm sorry if I hurt you."

Danni smiled.

"You actually helped me realize who I really love."

"And who's that?"

"Luke."

"Michael's band mate?"

Danni nodded and bit her lip.

"That's great."

"Thanks."

James's phone went off.

"Hello... Yeah... I'll be there in five."

James stood up.

"I got to go."

Danni stood up and hugged him.

"Thank you for understanding."

"No thank you."

James leaned down and kissed her cheek.

"I will always no matter what love you Dannica Grace Clifford."
