There was a girl I used to know. She was the most popular girl in school. She was popular because She was happy, and because She was nice. Her beauty was just icing on the cake. Everything about her was perfect. Even her boyfriend was perfect. Popular, nice, cute, funny, and just amazing. But that's where everything went wrong. You see, this girl was my best friend. We were so close that, before she was dating her boyfriend, I knew She liked Him before She even knew. I was close to Him too. I also knew that He liked Her before He knew. And here's where the problem lies. I liked Him too. Neither of Them knew, I'm much better at hiding it than They were. But some of our other friends did. At first they always teased me about my little crush. But then it became deeper and they tried to help. Until my 2 best friends started dating. Every time we were all in the same room together they looked at me like I was a wounded puppy. But one day, She wasn't around. But He was. I was sneaking glances at Him, feeling like a traitor, when I caught Him looking at me too. The same way I looked at Him. At first, my heart soared! "Does He like me too?" I thought hopefully. But then I stopped. What about Her? I honestly didn't feel like a traitor anymore. I felt like a Petty Little Thief.
