Jacob was sitting on my bed. My diary was in his hands and he was reading it.

I just froze. Everything in that book was about my feelings for Jacob.

He looked up at me and started laughing. ''I thought I'd come around and see you since we haven't spoken in a long time, your diary was just a bonus.''

I rushed over to him and tried to take the book away from him but his grip on the diary was pretty hard.

''GIVE....IT....TO...ME!!!'' I screamed.

I hoped he hadn't read the parts about him yet, but he was still holding on to the book and reading it while I tried so hard to snatch it from him.

''Dear diary, Today in chemistry, Jay told me he wasn't going to be going with me and Ty to prom this year. He said he was going to take a girl with him. His new crush. When he said that, I broke. He always had new crushes. When would he notice me? When would he realize that I had...feelings for him?'' Jacob looked up at me. He looked shocked. ''Ash? You have feelings for me?''

I let go of his hand. What I had feared had already happened.

''Jay, I...'' He cut me off.

''Well then I have a confession to make. I wanted it to be a surprise but I guess this is the right time to tell you. I dont love Tyra.'' What? He was playing my best friend? I hated him, now more than ever. ''I was going to take you to prom. Dylan didn't ask out Tyra. I have had feeling for you since forever. Thats the reason me and Tyra had broken up the first time. She has always known. Thats what we always whisper about.'' What? Tyra knew about all this but she didn't tell me? ''I had asked Tyra not to tell you because you always seemed to have a crush or a boyfriend.''

''Me? You're the one who has a new crush every week!'' I was really frustrated right now. My best friends kept such a big thing from me? Tyra told me that Jacob and she had broken up because he had cheated on her. I always thought Jacob was a jerk because of that. Tyra had really liked Jacob....knowing that I was the reason for their break-up made me feel really guilty.

''That's because I wanted to see if you ever felt bad so I'd know whether you liked me.''

''I did feel bad! I just didn't show it... Actually I did. You were just too clueless.''

''I'm sorry, Ash. But since you already know about my prom plan, will you go with me?''

Okay. Like this wasn't bad enough, I now had to choose between my 2 year crush and the person I spent the whole afternoon opening up to?

''Right now, Jay, I just want to be alone.''

''Okay, but Ash? I really do like you.''

I would be a billionaire if I got a dollar for everytime he said that to a girl.

''Sure.'' I closed the door on his face.

The only thing I could do right now was call Tyra. She might not have been the person I wanted to talk to about Jacob, but now it was different. I needed my best friend.

''Ty?''

''Ash! Whats up?''

''I needed to talk about Jay''

''He's great isn't he? I can't believe I let him go.''

''Cut it out, Ty. I know everything. Jacob told me.''

''That wimp! He can't keep anything to himself can he?''

I told her everything about Adam and whatever happened with Jacob.

''Oh. If you can't tell Jacob about Adam, I'll tell him.'' Tyra said at the end of the story.

''No. I don't want Jacob to know. I just need help choosing whom I like more.''

''You know I can't help you in that right? You just have to listen to your heart.''

''I was afraid you were gonna say that! I can't listen to my heart cuz my heart doesn't know.''

''Your heart has to. Sleep on it. Maybe you'll get your answer tomorrow.''

''You're just sleepy, aren't you?''

''Well, we HAVE been talking for 2 hours.''

''Okay. Bye, Ty''

I knew the answer wouldn't just come to me. But sleeping wouldn't hurt. Would it?
