To my surprise its been about a week and a half since the last time i saw Austin which was when he went to my house to apologize.
Since then he hasnt dared to call or text me which kind of made me sad but happy at the same time.
Rumor has it that him and Alex arent speaking to each other. ugh hes so dramatic sometimes. Lucky for Alex hes been hanging out with Danielle and i recently, the more i hang out with him the more i realize that hes quite a nice guy. Of course i dont like him in that way that Austin may suspect but i think danielle might. Her and Alex have been hanging out alot after school and they text each other all the time. Aw how cute. If i were still with austin she and i could have double dated with austin and alex. The thought of not being with Austin still manages to bring sadness to my heart but i just cant trust someone who lied to me. As much as i may still like him i just cant do this.

Its now after fourth period and its finally time for lunch, thank god! i walk to the lunch court to meet up with Alex and danielle who are waiting for me.

"ugh took you long enough, im starving." danielle teased

"oh shut up i wasnt that long." i laugh

Alex just laughs as we walk to the cafeteria, out of habit i take a glance over at austin's table and to my surprise him and all his friends are looking at me. i quickly turn back and act like i didnt look over there.

after we get our food we sit on a table as far from austin as possible. For some odd reason i knew that Austin was looking at me and the thought made me uncomftorable, i decide to just ignore it and talk to danielle and alex.

"so i hear you and austin arent speaking?" danielle asks

Alex glances at me and then at Danielle

"hes just being dramatic." he responds as he takes a bite of his sandwich

"alex, im sorry, i didnt mean to ruin your friendship with austin."
I feel like im to blame for this, if i wouldnt have hung out with alex, him and austin would still be friends.

"oh michaela." alex laughs "Austin may be the biggest jerk ever but he cant stay mad at me, were like brothers, i told you, hes just being dramatic, he'll come around sooner or later."

he manages to make me feel better but i still feel kind of guilty, im glad Alex is not the type of person who holds hard feelings, ugh why couldnt i fall for alex and not austin.

When i finish my sandwich i get up to go to the bathroom.

"i'll be right back, i have to use the bathroom."

"why must girls always announce when they have to use the bathroom?" alex teases

i playfully stick my tongue out at him

"you coming danielle?"

"umm." she glances at alex and then at me "ill just stay here and wait for you."

of course she wants to be alone with alex and i dont blame her, they seem to get along great. i simply smile and decide to go on my own.

******

I wash my hands before heading back to the cafeteria.

As im walking i feel my phone vibrate in my back pocket.
To my surprise its a text from an unknown number
~ remind me to change my number because for some apparent reason strangers everywhere seem to have it~

i read the message

"meet me at the library during free period, i have some information that may be helpful to you."

What? what kind of information could someone at this school have that could possibly be beneficial to me. maybe they have the answers to a test or something. haha okay NO!
on the real though, now im curious, this could be another of harley's plan, although what could she possibly do, she already ruined my first relationship.
my head is debating wether or not to go. i decide to just put my phone away and decide later. i walk back into the cafeteria with Alex and danielle.

*****

its now free period and i tell danielle that i have some homework to catch up on so i can see what this mystery texter is talking about.

"where are you going michaela."

"i have some homework to catch up on, ill see you later, besides, now you have time to be alone with alex." i tease

i see danielle blush immensely at just the mention of his name. aww i hope they date soon. When alex shows up i excuse myself and go to the library.

The library is surprisingly empty and i question myself thinking if this is some sort of joke. i decide to check my phone and surely enough i have another text.

"come to the back of the library."

when i manage my way all the way to the back i am surprised by who i see.

its Katelyn. she gets up as soon as she sees me.

"michaela, over here."

confused by what is going on i make my way over and sit by katelyn.

"so you were texting me?" i whisper remembering that we are in a library and we have to keep our voices down

"yeah, sorry for being all weird and mysterious but i had no other way to reach you."

"not to be rude or anything but how did you get my number." i ask

"harley has it."

"oh" is the only thing i can manage to say.

"yeah."

a moment of silence passes before she speaks again.

"michaela, you have to take austin back."

whoa! what!!!! i choke a little. what is she talking about, this isnt even her business, and who is she to tell me what to do.

"ummm why?" i ask confused

"because hes miserable, he misses you. youre all he talks about."

how would she know austin talks about me.

before i can ask her something she suggests that we take the conversation outside so we can talk freely and not whisper.

we walk out to the benches outside and sit down.

"katelyn, youre best friends with harley, how do i know youre not trying to play some sick joke?"

"harley may be my friend but im not evil like she is."

"well being her friend you should know that austin cheated on me with harley so no i dont plan on forgiving him."

"austin didnt cheat on you michaela."

"how would you know?" my voice is serious with a hint of anger, why does she even care?

i decide to take out my phone and show her the picture, *note to self, why the hell have i not deleted that picture?*

i am confused when she takes out her phone and begins scrolling through her pictures and she shows me the exact same picture.

"how did you get that?" i ask more confused than ever "did harley send it to you too?"

"no, michaela, i took this picture."

She what???!!! okay now i am beyond confused. one minute she tells me to take austin back, the next she says she took the picture that single handedly ruined my first relationship.

"why would you take that picture, and worst of all why would you send it to me, i never did anything to you?" i ask trying to hold back my sadness

i look at katelyn and she has a guilty look on her face.

"i know i wasnt supposed to say anything but this isnt right."

"what is it just tell me." i demand

"harley kissed austin and she told me to take the picture, she wanted to ruin it because for once in his life austin was happy. Austin pushed her away he didnt kiss her back."

oh my god! austin was telling the truth! but why would katelyn tell me this?

"why are you telling me this? arent you supposed to have harley's back?"

"not when its hurting Austin the way it is." she says softly

"how do you know all of this about austin, you know, that he misses me and that hes miserable?"

"i know because hes told me." she smiles

"oh, so austin has talked to you?"

"yes, were very good friends."

well, this is news i didnt even know that Austin and katelyn were friends. for some odd reason i cant hell but feel a little jealous that Austin has talked to katelyn about this, but i quickly push my thoughts away and replace them with hope. Austin was telling the truth! that bitch harley! she will never hear the end of it.

"i didnt know you and austin were friends." i finally find the words to say

"at a point we were more than friends, austin and i used to date."

HOLD UP? WHAT??? my subconscious cleans her ears to make sure i heard correctly, Katelyn and Austin? wow! now i really feel jealous that hes been talking to her but at the same time im glad that katelyn is telling me all of this.

"oh." once again is the only thing that comes out of my mouth

"dont worry, its not like that anymore, if it were i wouldnt be telling you all of this would i?" she smiles warmly at me

shes got a point there.

"what happened?" i ask curiously

she sighs "the fame happened, and then harley happened"

"but its okay because we're still good friends and now i found myself a nice guy who i really like."

i smile "thats great to hear."

"so please give austin another chance, i honestly havent seen him this devastated since that thing happened with his mom."

curiosity strikes again and i wonder what happened with his mom? i remember he brought her up once but he refused to talk about it.


"what happened with his mom?" i ask curiously

she gives me a puzzled look "he didnt tell you?"

i nod and she gives me a sympathetic look.

"his mom turned into an alcoholic after his dad passed away and she was arrested after she caused a major accident which resulted in a few deaths."

i am beyond astonished by what i am hearing, why would austin keeps this from me. i cant think of words to say all can do is sit there with my mouth wide open. for some odd reason i understand why austin is the way he is. loosing his dad at a young age and basically loosing his mother too. i cant help but let out a few tears.

"i....i had no idea." i tell katelyn

"he doesnt tell much people. i think only alex knows and myself."

the thought of a poor defenseless boy seeing his own mother get arrested fills my thoughts and sadness conquers over me. all i wanna do is hold austin and heal his broken heart. i can only imagine how he felt. loosing his parents and then loosing me. i somehow feel guilty and i just wanna run back to his arms and kiss him.

i get up from the bench wiping my tears and katelyn does the same.

"thank you." is the only possible thing i can say to her

"youre welcome" she smiles and gives me a warm hug

"please dont tell austin i told you that. just wait until hes ready to tell you."

i thank her again for giving me all this information and we head our seperate ways.
i rush to the hallway hoping to find Austin but to my luck the stupid bell rings and i have to go to class. damn!

i guess i'll have to wait till after school.
