How to Survive High School

Chapter 5 : Justin

SUNDAY
JUSTIN P.O.V.
Ever since Mel convinced me to take part in that plan, I couldn't stop thinking about Lexi. But Cameron likes her too. I just hope that he gets rejected so I can have Lexi.

LEXI P.O.V.
I think I like Justin, but I like Cameron too. I don't know what to do.

MONDAY, AT SCHOOL, LUNCH TIME

LEXI P.O.V.
"Lexi, can you come with me for a second?" Justin asked.
"Sure!" I replied. He walked me outside to the benches.
"I like you Lexi."
"Uh.....I-I........Uh" I stuttered.
"Just think about it okay?"
"Yeah......"

TUESDAY

JUSTIN P.O.V.
I woke up with a fever. What happened? I wasn't sick yesterday, and nobody else was sick.... I asked my mom, and apparently I had a flu type sickness, that wasn't contagious. "That's okay, because you won't infect you friends," she told me.
"Okay, thanks mom. I'm heading to school now."
"Bye sweetie."

I felt really bad by the time I got to school, so I went and sat on a bench and tried to go to sleep. A few minutes later, a girl named Olivia came and sat down beside me, and even worse, she likes me.
"Sick?" she asked.
"Yeah, but it's not contagious," I said.
"That's good," she said.
"How is that good?" I asked. She moved closer to me, and looked straight into my eyes. Wow, she's really pretty.
"It's good, because now I can do this." She kissed me. But then I made the mistake of kissing her back, at the exact moment that Lexi walked around the corner.

LEXI P.O.V.
"Wha......" I gasped. Cameron quickly pulled away from Olivia.
"Lexi?" he asked. I shook my head and started to cry. He hates Olivia! Why would he do this? I ran around the the corner and ran to Justin. I knew my answer to his question.

CAMERON P.O.V.
Oh my gosh...... I made her cry........ I SCREWED UP! I got up and ran after Lexi. I couldn't catch her, obviously she's way faster than me. I finally found her sitting at a table with Mel and Tash. "Hey guys," I said.
"Hey, Cam," Tash and Mel replied. Lexi shot me a nasty look.
"Lexi, can you come over here for a second?" Justin called from the cafeteria door.
"Gladly."

JUSTIN P.O.V.
"Do you....."
"Yes!" she cut me off.
"Would you like to be my girlfriend?" I asked.
"Absolutely," she smiled at me, and I smiled back. I then leaned in and kissed her. She wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me back. We walked over to our friends.

CAMERON P.O.V.
What just happened? Wait....... Justin has lipstick on his lips. Did he KISS Lexi? How did achieve that in.....what........like 30 seconds?
"Justin! You have my lipstick on your lips!" Lexi whisper-shouted.
"What?" Justin quickly wiped his face.
"You guys honestly think we haven't noticed already?" Tash laughed.

I've screwed up.....
