He shakes his head no with a smirk in his face and I automatically feel a bad shift in the air. "I need you to come with me, Mrs.Harper wants you", he tells me. Mrs.Harper was the school newspapers head and I worked for them.
I walk into Mrs.Harpers room with brooks seeing her sitting at her desk. "Oh yes Delaynie" she said in her high pitched but comforting voice. I sit down and Brooks sits beside me I roll my eyes why can't he just leave. "You needed me?", I ask Mrs.Harper. "Yes, I understand that your moving to New York in the next few weeks correct?", she says to me I nod my head for her to continue. I see Brooks shift in his seat and look upset I wonder what that's about. "We'll I was wondering if you could write an article on the football team for your last article here at Dash Valley high?" She says to me. I automatically get excited the sprits articles are the big articles in the newspapers and I've only written one and it didn't get published. " of course Mrs.Harper you know how much that would mean to me", I say to her with the biggest smile. " We'll of course sweety, your the best writer here",she told me. I'm normally doing the School papers editing and publishing cause everyone told me that I was good at it so I took the job this is the second time my name will be on the paper and I've been in the paper for two years.

After I left Mrs.Harpers room Brooks pulls me to the side with a look that tells me he's about to something. "Will you be my fake girlfriend till you leave for New York please I need Emma off my back and I don't have anyone else?", he asks me looking desperate. "What do I get out of it?", I asked him. "I'll help you with anything that you need help with", he tells me. I do need help with my chemistry and math and it just so happens that he's the top in those classes. "Fine", I tell him he smiles and pulls me into a hug before kissing me on the top of the head. I felt a hand in my back pocket and as he pulls away he walks away and I reach in my pocket and see a pink sticky note that says.
