(Read.)
Omg I'm calling

Riiinngg! Riiinngg!

Pick up your phone Julie, Anastasia paces her room.

Riiinngg!

Hel-

You can't just drop that on my lap and then not answer the phone! Spill.

Okay I don't think I was suppose..

Yeah yeah, you're going to tell me though so spill

Okay rude Julie laughs

Sorry but spill please. What did Dean say?

Wait who told you they love you?

Banks

Oh my god! When?

Like two hours ago and then I didn't say the same you can guess how that went. Me balling my eyes out because you know.. wait when did Dean say he loves me.

He said he was falling for you when I went to confront him because he broke up with you and then didn't defend you at the Ducks meeting.

He was literally a jerk when that happened and I was so freaking angry and upset.

Well apparently he's been falling in love with you Fulton said.

No effing way like I feel bad but then again like I have feelings for both but then like God this is gonna be bad.

What?

I was with Banks today and he's coming back to the Ducks.

No.

Yes. Girl I don't know what to do. I couldn't tell Banks I love him because literally Dean has been so strong on my mind. Like I care about him so much I couldn't do that him. I know I suck at showing it.

I don't know which one do you care about more. But not just care for in a friend way. Which one I don't know makes you weak in the knees. The one you can see yourself running back to everyday.

Girl if I knew I wouldn't be stuck lol. I know this isn't funny but I see myself running back to both of them. Like I like banks because he's kind, makes me smile, and just never judges me for my past. But I love Dean because I feel like he cares so much like hes protective, he's cute, and he gets along with my family well, he's like a different person with me.

Ana I know you don't want to hear this. But I think you really need to think about everything that you and them have been through. Give yourself time to heal from all the drama and really think about who you want. And only when you know tell him and if he feels the same then try again. Don't run to Dean and then Adam.

I think I needed to hear that. Thanks Julie

Yeah of course.

Anyway enough of my love life. How are you and Scooter.

We made it official!

Ana screams in excitement, when?

That day in the library. He came back with flowers and a basket for a date. He apologized for everything.

Awwe I'm happy for you and him. I'm so glad you two were able to figure it all out.

Me too. But hey I'm actually going out with Scooter soon.

Okay don't do anything I wouldn't do.

Says the girl thats in a love triangle.

Hey! What can I say I'm adorable.

Pft okay no my best friend is gorgeous just doesn't know who she loves more yet. You will figure out. Love ya.

Love ya too. Have fun on your date.
