Adam

It's been a couple days since the prom. I haven't seen Courtney in a while too. I think Courtney is starting to like me again. Maybe I can have a chance with her again. I will be so happy if Courtney and Matt broke up.

I really love Courtney. I was sitting on my bed cleaning my ice skates. We have the Freshman vs. Varsity game in two days, so tomorrow is practice. I heard a knock on the door.

I put my skates on my bed and walked to the door. I opened it and saw Ocean standing there with sunglasses and an envelope in her hands.

"Ocean?" I asked. She looked around, then walked in. "Come.. In?" I closed the door and looked at her.

"You're not gonna be happy with what I'm about to say." Ocean implied as she walked closer to me.

"Look, Ocean. I think you're pretty and nice, but I like Courtney. I'm sorry." She started to laugh a little.

"No, I don't like you like that. I have something for you." Ocean handed me the envelope. I grabbed it softly. I tore the envelope opened and opened the letter inside:

Dear Adam Banks,

I stared at the letter. Rereading it over and over. "Are you okay, Adam?" I heard Ocean ask. I looked up at her.

"They're getting married?" I asked. She nodded slowly.

"Yeah, Matt proposed to Courtney at prom." Ocean replied. I put the letter on my desk and sat down on the chair so I wouldn't pass out.

"So, she really does love Matt." I sighed.

"Yeah." Ocean sighed. I put my head in my hands. "Look, I tried to stop him. I don't want Courtney to hitch him, I want you to."

"Yeah? Well, it's too late. She's gonna marry him and become Courtney Shift and my life is gonna be ruined."
