fourteen.

      MAE LAUGHED as Madison was complaining about the weather. It was true that the weather changed radically from one day to the next and they didn't really know what to wear anymore. Felice entered the dinner room and took a plate to go grab something to eat. She looked sad and barely even looked at her friends.

       "Honestly, I'm really worried about her." Madison told the other girls.

      "Yeah, who isn't?" Stella replied.

      Fedrika sighed. "She's been wearing the same sweatpants several days in a row. It's totally insane."

      "She's just sad about Sara, she needs some time." Mae shrugged her shoulders.

      "Hey, am I totally crazy if I say I think that she should stop whining already? I mean, come on, I'm sorry, but yeah, Sara was a snake. Fine! Get over it." Stella scoffed. "It's not as she's been dumped, that would have been different."

      "Yeah, but breaking up with a friend can be worse than getting dumped." Madison told the blonde.

     "But come on."

      "I think we need to have an intervention." Madison added.

      Felice walked back towards them and all the girls smiled. "Hi, sweetie, good morning!"

      "How are you doing?"

      "Mm." Felice shrugged as she sat next to Mae.

       Some older girls started yelling and they turned to see them piercing the ear of one of them. "It's 50 points!"

      "Jesus, it's like two months left till graduation." Madison huffed. "It's gonna be like this every day till then?"

      "It's the third graders' Point Hunt. They got so much to look forward to." Fedrika replied. "They're gonna have the 50-Day Party, then there's Valborg, the comedy show, the graduation bash, they're gonna have the receptions and arrange the trucks. And also, the last annual dinner with the teachers!"

      "Are you looking forward to the dinner with the teachers?" Stella teased.

      Fedrika nodded. "It's cozy. They're cute."

      They noticed Felice who was typing on her phone and Stella grinned. "Who are you texting?"

      "Wille's coming back today."

      "What?"

      "Oh, my God, that's a huge deal, right?" Fedrika asked. "It's the first time we've seen him since the anniversary celebration. How are like, he and Simon gonna, like... what are they donna do? Are they a couple now?"

      "I mean, I don't think they have to hide anymore now that everyone knows so I guess they are." Mae thought out loud.

      The girls finished their meal and went to sit at one of the tables in the common room to do their homework. Mae, Fedrika and Stella sat at the table where Henry and Alexander were already. Mae smiled as she kissed her boyfriend.

      "Hi." they both smiled.

      "There's Simon!" Fedrika said with excitement as she pointed at the boy who was opening his locker.

      "You are so invested in this, it's actually worrying." Stella mocked.

      "Shut up."

      The voices faded a little when Wilhelm walked into the room. Everyone was staring at him but he didn't seem to notice as he walked up to Simon and kissed him. Mae and Fedrika contained their exclamations as they were looking at them.
