Jude sits in class with Jake and Taylor.

"So where's Alex and Daira?" Jake asked.

"They have dance practice this morning" Jude said. "So they have to miss their first three classes today."

"Three classes?" Jake asked. "Maybe I should join dance team."

"Then you wouldn't get to see me" Jude flirted.

Taylor rolled her eyes. Connor stared at Jude and Jake. He didn't want to believe they were flirting because Jake was supposed to be with Alex and Connor was supposed to be with Jude. Connor didn't get it. He had to know. He raised his hand.

"I feel like I have to throw up" Connor lied to the teacher rushing out. He then headed towards the gym.

He entered to see Alex leading a dance and Mariana smiling at him.

"I swear you could be captain Alex" Mariana winked.

They then noticed Connor.

"Connor what can I help you with?" Mariana asked.

"I need to talk to Alex" Connor begged. "it's important."

"Fine" Mariana said. "Daria take over for Alex."

Alex walked over to Connor and he folded his arms.

"You look bad" Alex studied. "Either your failing or you know about Jude and Jake."

"So they are together?" Connor asked worried.

"Well not officially" Alex said. "But they went on a date the other night. But their not like boyfriends... yet."

"We can't let this happen" Connor said. "We have to stop it. Your supposed to be with Jake and me with Jude."

"I rather not get involved" Alex said.

"Why?" Connor asked.

"Because I told Jude I had no problem with him going out with Jake" Alex said.

"What the hell is wrong with you?" Connor snapped. "God. Now Jude is going to be with that idiot. This is your fault."

"Sorry if I was being a good friend, Connor" Alex snapped harshly. "Sorry if I don't have time for your relationship drama. I mean I was just raped. So excuse me for not giving a crap about what YOU want. If you want Jude then tell him. Don't snap at me, Stevens."

Alex walked off. Connor was left thinking.


Emma walks down the hallway with Hayley.

"Have you heard back from any schools?" Emma asked.

"I've already gotten Into NYU" Hayley said. "What about you?"

"Not yet" Emma said.

"I applied real early" Hayley said. "Me and Tia applied together and we both got in."

"Nice."

"So what's with your boyfriend he's been acting weird lately" Hayley pointed out.

"I don't know" Emma said. "But your right. He's been acting really weird. I just hope it's just senior year that's got him all jumpy and not something serious."


Connor sees Alex in the lunch line. He walks to Alex.

"I'm sorry about earlier" Connor tells Alex. "I was a huge jerk to you. And you don't deserve that. Your going through some heavy stuff."
