Joe's POV

So, I was just walking around the hallways in the morning like always and then Cat walks up "JOE!" I was like "hi" and waved. She always does that, but I never understand why. Then all of a sudden Anne finds Cat and they start following me. At first I thought they were just going the same way that I was, but apparently not. Anne walks up and starts looking at Cat and pointing at me. I was thinking what the hell? But, I figured they were just talking or something. Anne was smiling like an idiot looking from me to Cat and vice versa. I was like what the hell is going on? But, it doesn't matter.

Then, at lunch today, after Cat and Anne ate their food, they came and found me in the hallway. I was playing my guitar and I figured they were just coming over to hear me play my guitar but no. After a few minutes of me and Cat waving back and forth, Anne walks up "Cat has a question for you" and then she runs away. My face turns red. Cats face turns red too, everyone around looks at her. Cat runs away chasing after Anne. I still don't know what Cats question was.

Tristan's POV 

Well, I am single. Single life sucks. This girl named Cat is always coming up to me and saying "Hey Best Friend". I guess I never really thought anything of it, until I broke up with my girlfriend. But, Cat for sure likes me. I know she does. She flirts with me and basically lets me wear every pair of glasses she brings to school. She was like my best friend on FB ever since a year ago. She didn't even know me then. But, she friended me and was like "I like your style" and I was like "thanks". I am goth. I like wearing black. If you ever see me wear color, then you know Cat talked me into something. She is an amazing person. I think I scared her a little bit when I told her that I had a question for her tomorrow at school. She freaked out a little. I am kinda nervous. She is an amazing person, but she has been hanging on this one weird Joe guy lately. She said that she was single to. But, I think she likes him. But, he doesn't even acknowledge her. I would. I kiss my girlfriends, I hold them, and I walk them to class. I treat them right, Joe is someone who doesn't give a crap. I am still wondering why she likes him... I wonder if she still likes me?

Anne's POV 

 Ever since Cat told me that Brad likes me I cant eat anymore all day every day i think of him. I don't know what to do about it I wanna talk to him and get to know him but I can't I'm to shy. I put my head in my hands and sat on my bed. What is wrong with me. I sigh and get on gmail to see if cat is on yet.

Hopefully she is I logged in and went to my PerryTheAnneapus one and yes I know weird name but it's fine. I looked at her name on my chat list and she was on. "Thank god." I said under my breath and start talking to her. "Cat help I can't do anything Brad won't stay out of my head." I said and I see her picture pop up. She enters what she wrote and we did this back and forth for a while.

Brad's POV 

 Every sense I told Cat I like Anne she has been in my head all the time. I see her all the time and I can see my future with her. I try not to miss school because then I can't see her, I see her at school talking to her friends and she makes them laugh. I wish I could do the same for her and she could for me.

She always has a smile and I love it she never wears makeup very often and I like that she doesn't it makes her different. I sit on my bed and look at my emails. I scroll through them and see one from Cat. I sit up and read it. :Hey I'm Catlynne the Freshman alto sax player and my freshman trumpet friend Anne Perry likes you and wants to know how you feel. I'm only the messenger and I this is very awkward on my part so I will end it here.

I smiled and sighed I closed my chromebook. The next few days I see her in school and monday I have her help me carry the thermis things to the kitchen so I can wash them out. A few of her friends follow and pick on her I smile to myself and keep walking.

The next day we got our concert seats and she sits right in front of me. She doesn't turn around or anything. I wish she would have but she never did. We played a few songs and went over Friday. We get to walk in the woods and I can feel Anne smile. A walk in the woods sounds like fun.

I see her everyday in the hallway almost. She looks at me but doesn't smile. How I miss her smile it kills me to not see it. I have to let her know how I feel but how? I walked to class and thought about ways I could let her know. When were in class and Mr.G lets us out to go home she'll run before I can talk to her but tomorrow we get to have lunch together so then will have to be my time that i tell her how i feel. She might be wearing make up tomorrow because we get to wear our costumes so that would be fun. I hope she doesn't cry I don't need to see her cry it would kill me.

Anne's POV 

Well my hunch was right that Brad didn't like me and that he liked Cat. I asked her to ask him if he still liked me or not and she did. She sent me an email saying what had happened.

~Email from Cat~

I asked him already...

Him:Idk

Me:Come on man you liked her and then she fell in love with you and now you dont like her anymore.

Him:I know..but I like you

Me:Leave me the hell alone you fucking douchbag and dont ever talk to me again..Remember what I told you. "Sweet as candy cold as ice you break her I kill you twice"..

Him:I'm sorry I did not mean to hurt anyone.

Me: Leave me alone and why are you still talking to me

Him: sorry

Me: Stop talking to me.

Him: *Walks away almost crying*

Me: *Proud of myself*

~end convo~

I looked at the screen in disbelief of what i just read. I typed back to her in reply and said this: See I told you he didn't like me anymore and that was mean. I waited for her to reply and she did: Yea i know but he was a douche.. I laughed a little and typed back: Yea but did you have to be so hard on him that was kinda ruthless..

We talked a little while after that and now I got moved to seat seven in my section so I'm not right directly in front of him like I was at seat fourteen. I don't catch him looking at me very much anymore and I don't look at him unless I have too.

WE were at the Bonfire at Cassie's the other day and he was there. I sighed and figured he would have been because he never misses out on things like that. I talked to a few friends until cat got there. We played all kinds of games and ate a lot of random food as well. After a while Brad asked if we wanted to play "Big booty" which is a game that I think helps with tempo but I'm not totally sure. There were a few rounds where I would be able to last to where there was Brad and someone else and since Brad is big booty all the time he will stare at you to try to get you out.

He did this a few times but I looked away and closed my eyes and just listened. I was right next to the fire and that didn't help either. He were playing body body and after cat left Brad wasn't too far behind and neither was Amber and I. Brad supposedly left because he was getting a "headache" when I can go through an entire day of school with one and be fine but anyway.

Brad left after Cat did and I did as well. After I got home i went on Facebook to see if cat was on and she wasn't. I didnt have any emails because the schools wifi is down and you would think before they gave all the students a chromebook they would have the bugs worked out and know how to fix them other than just having them not have any internet all day when they have stuff to do.

Over the next few days or past few I've been telling cat she can have brad but she's convinced he still likes me when I know he doesn't because if he did then he would have done something already wouldn't he? I've been telling her she can have him also because she liked him first and I'm one of the friends that will put their friends in front of their even happiness if necessary.
