••Virginia's POV••

"This is your last chance to get tickets to the After Romeo concert here at The Staples Center. I have one free ticket for the show as well as a pass for the meet and greet before the show." The announcer said and I looked up at the tv. I was tired of hearing about After Romeo. I was tired of hearing about Blake English. "Just come find me, and be the first to snatch them! I'll be hiding somewhere in LA." The announcer added.

Then, an idea came into my mind. This is my chance to see if Blake has changed. I dropped what I was doing and stared at the tv to make sure I knew exactly what I would be looking for. Once I studied the face of the announcer, I quickly ran outside and got in my car, starting to drive around. Eventually, I saw him and quickly pulled over.

"Don't beat me to it. Don't beat me to it." I muttered as I quickly got out of my car and saw other fan girls running to the announcer. I quickly made my way to the announcer, and somehow I was able to get the tickets.

••M&G time, Blake's POV••

"Thanks for coming. Love you lots." I said to one of the fans as she said goodbye to me and moved on to Drew.

"Hello, Christopher. Remember me?" The next girl said as she stopped and stood in front of me.

"I'm sorry, I uh.. Should I remember you?" I said and she looked at me with an expression that practically screamed 'I hate you,' then she took hairpins out of her hair, letting her bangs fall into place.

"Ring a bell?" She said and I shrugged my shoulders.

"I'm sorry, I've just.. I've seen so many people these past few years now, and-"

"Hey, Ginny, why don't you just go and die?" She said in a mimicking tone.

That's when the memories(memories are italicized) started to flood in my mind.

"Hey, Ginny! Why don't you just go and die!" I said and laughed at her, along with all the other kids at school.

"Maybe I want to die." Ginny said and I scoffed.

"Then do it." I said and she bit her bottom lip, trying to hold back tears.

"I.. Christopher, what happened? I.. Remember freshman year? We were best friends.." Ginny said, biting down on her lip again.

"Freshman year was when we were neighbors, and I didn't realize that you were a ridiculous immature little schoolgirl. I know now what I didn't know then." I said and a few tears escaped her eyes.

"Christopher." Ginny said, looking into my eyes. She kept repeating my name. "Christopher," she repeated.

"BLAKE!"

That snapped me back into reality.

"Wha- what?" I said and bit down on my lip.

"What's going on?" Jayk asked.

"Don't.. Don't worry about it." I said and waved it off.

"Anyway, I see you're still popular. Still putting down girls to get you to the top?"

"Ginny..?" I said and she faked a smile.

"That's me." Ginny said and I immediately stood up, and walked around the table to where I could stand directly in front of her, then wrapped my arms tightly around her.

"Ginny, I am so sorry. I was stupid. I was trying to fit in, and-"

"No need to apologize. I just came to say good luck with the show, and congrats on the fame. I have to go now. I'll find someone to give the concert ticket to." Ginny said and shoved me away before pinning her bangs back again.

"Ginny, please. I love you." I said and reached for her hand, and as soon as I did, I saw her wrists. There was scars all up and down both of her wrists. Some old, some fresh.

"Do you really?" She said and looked at me as she saw me looking at her wrists.

"I did this..?" I asked and she took in a deep breath.

"You should really think before you speak, Blake. I just wanted you to know that what you did to me only made me stronger. So, bye. Have fun." She said and I pulled her close to me.

"I'm sorry, Ginny. I never meant to hurt you.."

"You shoved me and hit me, and told me to kill myself," she said. "You didn't mean to hurt me? Really?" She said and I wrapped my arms around her again.

"I was going through a weird stage, I just wanted to be popular, but now I see it wasn't really worth it." I said and started to cry.

"What's going on? This is freaking me out!" TC said and I tried to ignore everything else around me. I tried to imagine it was just me and Ginny.

"Don't worry about me, Blake." She said and tried to push me away. "By the way, it's not Ginny. It's Virginia." She said and I held her tighter.

"Gin- Uh.. Virginia, please. Can we just start over.. Can I have a second chance?" I whispered into her ear.

"What if you haven't changed?" She said and hesitantly accepted my embrace, and wrapped her arms back around me.

"What if I have?" I replied and she looked up and into my eyes.

"One chance. That's all you get. But you have no idea how much this scares me." She said before laying her head on my chest.
