"I kind of regret signing up for this," I say to Ashley.
"Why? Miles is here, there's nothing to be regretting," Ashley says.
"But Veronica's here also. Do you think miles broke up with her yet?"
Ashley looks over at Veronica and I look at her also. Veronica is organizing the snack table. She has this furious look on her face.
"Looks like it. I don't think she can be angry about anything else." Ashely says hanging the streamers.
"Athena, help Veronica fix the tables." The teacher says.
I groan and climb off the ladder. This just what I needed. I sigh and walk towards Veronica.
"Hey... I'm here to help," I say awkwardly.
"Shut up and set the tables up. I don't want to hear a word from you, boyfriend stealer." Veronica says angrily.
"I don't know what you're talking about. I didn't steal your boyfriend."
"Says who?" Veronica says looking up at me. My heels makes me a few inches taller than her which makes me less intimidated. "Says me. It's not my fault that Miles likes me more than you," I say crossing my arms.
"Your such a bitch. I really thought you were a nice person. I guess I was wrong.
"I'm not a nice person? What about you? You drove Miles away yourself."
Veronica's face starts to turn as red as a tomato and try not to laugh. I guess She turns red when she's angry. "Don't get happy now. I'll get my revenge. You won't even see it coming." Veronica says angrily storming out of room.
I giggle and Ashley smiles at me from across the room.

Later,I go to the football field to take a short break. I walk thorough the bleachers minding my own business when I see two figures in the corner and I walk towards them. I see Veronica and Adam talking to each other. "I think I like you more than Athena." I hear Adam say to Veronica.
"Really? And why is that?" Veronica says moving closer to Adam.
What is Adam doing with Veronica? I don't know why im getting so irritated. I was going to break up with him anyways. "Well, you're prettier than her and you're really kind." Adam answers.
Is he saying that i'm not kind or pretty. Even though i don't dress up much i'm not that bad looking. I frown and try not to go and strangle Veronica's skinny little neck. Veronica stands on her toes and kisses Adam on the lips. I get out of my hiding spot and Veronica looks at me with an evil grin. I glare at her and I clench my fist so tight that my nails stab the palms of my hands start to blead. "Adam, how could you kiss Veronica behind my back?" I say trying to keep my tears from spillinig out.
"Awww, look she's about to cry. What a baby." Veronica says laughing.
"Stay out of it, bitch!" I yell in anger.
I cant take it anymore. I just want to punch her. Adam frowns at me and I just keep glaring at Veronica.
"Why do you care what i do with other people. You seem to be having fun with that Miles guy." Adam says.
"I didn't do anything with him. Plus, you come back all of a sudden trying to get me back and now you're hooking up with Veronica." I say.
"Well, i just lost intrest in you. You dont even like me anyways."
I bite my lip and try not to cry. I still have feelings for Adam but, i dont want to have those feelings. "I do. How do you know how i feel?" I say.
"Well, i guess you're too late." Veronica says with a smile.
"You know what? I don't even care anymore. You can have fun at prom with Veronica."
I turn around and leave before they could see me crying. I run into the school and pass the party room. I keep going untill i suddenly bump into someone. "Athena? Are you okay? Why are you crying?" Miles asks helping me up.
"I-I don't want to talk about it right now." I say wiping my tears away.
"Why don't we go sit in the art room untill you feel better?" Miles says putting his hand on my shoulder.
I just nod and follow him to the art room. Miles sits down on one of the chairs and i sit down on the chair next him. He looks at me with concerned eyes. He probly wants to know why i look so sad. "You still dont want to talk about it? Was it Adam who made you cry?" Miles asks.
How does he read me like that? I nod and Miles pulls me into a hug. "I d-don't know w-why I'm even crying over him." I say laying my head on Miles' chest.
"Its okay to cry. Just let it out."
I bawled my eyes out and Miles just stayed by my side. After a few long minutes, I finnally stop crying. "You think you can go back now?" Miles asks.
"Yea, I'm fine now."
Miles leads me back to the party room where eveyone is still preparing for prom. No one even noticed that we had even came in. But, Ashley seems to notice that I was crying. Ashley runs up to me and grabs my face. "Where you crying?! Who made you cry? I'll give them a piece of my mind!" Ashley yells.
"Calm down. I'll talk about it later." I say giggling.
"At least she's smiling again." Miles says putting his hand on my shoulder.
We all spent the rest of the day preparing for prom. After we got finnished, Ashley asks me if she can stay at my place. "Sure, we can get ready for prom together." I say.
"Yay! I got my dress and stuff in my car." Ashley says heading for her car.
"So you were already planning to ask me?"
"Well, everything at home wasn't really going well. And my parents really don't care about me going to prom. They just want me to learn and not have fun."
"Well, lets get to my house and get some sleep."
We get into the car and Ashley drives to my house.
