Josh's POV:

Finally Hannah and I are a thing! I have been waiting for this for such a long time. The girl of my dreams can now be called mine.

The school didn't except us yet. They think Hannah is using me to get Jason back. Huh! Can't they just except that a cheerleader doesn't have to date a jock.

"So what are we going to do ?" I ask Hannah while fiddling with her hair.

" We should go ice skating !" She exclaims while getting off of my bed.

She came over so we can spent the weekend together I was so happy that she was finally mine.

" Why don't we do something fun like you know....?"

I didn't really want to go ice skating because I didn't know how. She would definitely make fun of me if she found out. I wanted to do something else...

"Not yet! I only known you for a little and now you are saying this. What a pervert ?" She laughs.

She looks so pretty when she's smiling. I never seen Jason make her happy. The only thing he cared about was himself and his best friend.

He probably didn't think of Hannah once after they broke up. He just used her for himself and that just upsets me. What a punk ! She's so perfect and he took it for granted.

" Let's go get some ices cream so we can decide what to do ." I say finally after thinking for a while.

"It's a date !"

Hannah grabs her purse and we are on our way for one of our thousand adventures that are yet to come.

Jason's POV:

I'm still bummed about Hannah. Why was I so stupid and had to break up with her? She was mine and will always be. She's just using Josh to get me jealous. I know she is.

It's Saturday and I don't know what to do. Hannah and I go eat at Panda Express every Saturday and then get ice scream. It's one of our boyfriend girlfriend traditions.

I call Richard to see if he wants to hang out with me.

" Hey man! Want to hang ? I'm so bored with nothing to do!"

"Sorry Jase. Me and Julia are going somewhere. She's busy most of the time so I have to spent any time I can with her "

Julia was Richard's girlfriend. She's in her first year of college so she's always busy with school. Lucky her college isn't too far from where we live.

I guess I should go ask Ben if he wants to go somewhere. Him and I have a love hate relationship with each other. He thinks I'm messing his sister up. I never know what he's talking about. Kate and I are just friends and that's final.

I get my keys to red truck, kiss my sleepy mother goodbye and leave. I just got my license last year so I'm pretty new at this.

I reach Bens house which is a blue two story house. It's very plain and boring but it's simple so I like it. It's like a second home to me since I'm usually there whenever Hannah was busy.

I ring the doorbell. I'm slightly nervous. I didn't even text or call. I do this all the time though.

No answer.

Finally a very tired Kate opens the door. She looks so cute with her hair up in a bun. She's not wearing any makeup
which makes her look even better. Girls always looks so much prettier without makeup. Flaws are ok everyone has them. They are just a part of who we are.

" What are you doing here so early ? " she asks half asleep.

" It's already 8! What are u talking about?" Wow her family is not the morning type.

" Whatever! It's Saturday! Do you want me to go get Ben ?"

How did she know I'm here for him ?

"I'm a mind reader!" She laughs.

" Actually I'm here for you." I smile. She definitely didn't see that coming.

" Umm.... Ok. Why ?" She says confusingly.

" You'll see. " I say. " Now go get dressed. It's a surprise. "

What was I doing ? I wasn't even here for her. It's like I couldn't think straight. I can't screw up Kate's feelings just because of Hannah. Ben would chop my halls of and plus she's one of my best friends. I known her for way too long to do anything to hurt her.
Oh well no backing out of it now.....
