"Fuck yeah!" Maddy jumped up and down in the bowling alley, just getting a strike
Jules, Kat, and I all ran towards her also cheering
"This is great!" Kat said
Kat and Ethan were supposed to go on a date together tonight. Then Kat called us and asked if we wanted to join. Now we were all bowling and Ethan was sitting back and watching us.
After a while, Jules and I got hungry so we headed over to the cafe
"How's Rue?" I asked, paying for our food
Jules sighed and followed me over to a table to wait for our food
"The week before school, she basically ignored me all because she was hanging out with Elliot." Jules informed, "And I think he wants to, like, fuck her," Jules scoffed
I nodded, "Oh my God," I put my head in my hand and shook my head
"What?"
"He didn't tell me he was with Rue," I mumbled
"What do you mean?" Jules asked
"Elliot ignored me too and then said 'he had stuff to do' or something. Mind you, the night before we hung out and we made plans to take Adrian to the park,"
"I'm sorry babes," Jules said
I chuckled, "Why are you sorry? This is on him," I said
Our order number was called and Jules went up to grab our tray of food
We headed back over to our bowling lane to see Maddy taking my turn and Kat talking to Ethan
We ended up leaving the bowling alley 30 minutes before it closed.
"We'll be five minutes," Kat said walking away with Ethan
"What is she going to do in five minutes?" Maddy asks
"I don't even want to know," I laughed and covered my face
A silence took over as Jules' phone buzzed.
"I think I'm going to get back together with Nate," Maddy mumbled, "It's a mistake, right?" She looked ahead at the parking lot
Jules and I looked at her, "Don't do it," Jules said, laying her head against her knees
"I don't know if I can do that," She admitted, almost defeated
I looked at Maddy, "I wish you could see yourself the way the rest of the world sees you,"
We scooted closer to Maddy and she leaned her head on Jules shoulder and Jules gave her a kiss on the forehead.

After the week and half of not talking to Elliot, he never let up.
I was walking with Cassie in the hall. Something about her was off, especially when Maddy was around us. Her arms were crossed and her eyes and body language radiated fear and and nervousness
"(Y/N)!" Elliot called from behind us
Cassie and I stopped and she looked at me with a questioning look
"I'll see you in class," I turned around and waited for him.
"Shocked you didn't leave me behind," He said
"I still can if you want," I said, crossing my arms
"No, stay. Talk to me," He said
We stare at each other in the middle of the hall, people walking around us
