Max's POV (DUN DUN DUUNN XD)

I felt disgust fill me as I watched Oli and Josh walk into the room, I glared at them. But mostly at Oli, it was obvious that he was the most vulnerable out of him and Josh.

My attention was diverted from them as I heard someone call my name, turning around I saw it was Hannah, she had medium length brown hair and crystal blue eyes. She seemed pretty peeved, I knew of her crush on Franceschi but since he was gay she couldn't have him. She sat next to me and gave me a look and I knew she was planning something devious. "I want in on this devious idea you seem to be brewing." I whispered to her, a grin spread across her features as she began explaining what she was planning on doing.

The idea was all too perfect. Separate Josh and the freak, then she'll come up to Josh and begin to make a move on him and have Oli notice. I smirked at her, looking forward to the time she was going to put this plan into motion. Which would be after school today.

(~ A/N: That was actually quite hard to write XD ~)

Josh's POV

- After School -

I was walking towards my locker, Oli had said he needed to do something after class so I had told him that I would wait for him. I put all my stuff away, closing my locker and then leaning against it. I ended up getting lost in thought, being pulled out of them a few minutes later by a girl with brown hair. I recognized her to be one of Max's lackies, so I stared at her suspiciously, not wanting to fully trust her just incase she was plotting something.

"Heya Josh~" Her voice called out seductively, I just ignored it. I knew full well that she had a crush on me. But couldn't she see that I was in love with Oli and not her? She's most probably to blind to see that. She pouted when she didn't get a reply from me. "Playing hard to get?" She questioned, I just frowned. "Stop trying to make a move on me. You should know that I'm taken." I said, exasperated.

"Yea, taken by a freak!" She exclaimed. Now that just pissed me off. I went to throw a retort right back at her when she suddenly forced her lips onto mine. I was shocked to say the least.

Oli's POV

I literally frooze from where I stood, this was something I was not expecting to see. Only one thought rushed to the forefront of my mind.

"W-Why is Josh kissing her!?!"

I felt my heart break again and the voice that had been kept at bay came back with a vengeance. "Stop being so blind! He doesn't love you!" It said scornfully, "H-He does love me!" I desperately whispered, even though my reply was out loud I couldn't seem find a fuck to give. "You deluded piece of shit. His love for you is a lie. After all, who could love a freak like you?" The voice said casually, not seeming to care about how I felt.

Tears rushed to my eyes, I didn't even notice Josh had rushed to me until I heard his panicked voice yell "Its not what it looks like! She-" I cut him off, "Fuck off Josh!" I heard my own pain which was laced into my voice. I hated it.

I just ran, feeling my tears escape. The only place I could think of going right now was my house.

I burst through the door of my house, slamming it shut behind me.

I made my way upstairs, heading into my room where I just lay facedown on my bed, bawling like a five year who lost their favourite toy.

And that was how I spent most of my evening.
