It's been at least five hours since that had happened and I still feel pretty bad about it.

I keep hurting people's hearts. And I don't mean eating it.

"Michael?" I hear a soft voice sniffle.

"Jessica," I smile; a smile full of sadness.

"I think I should quit," she sighs.

"No!" I stand up from the chair in was sitting in, "You can't, look I am so so so so sorry. I told you I wouldn't do this to you ever again, but it happened and I'm sorry. Really Jessica, I love you."

I lean down and kiss her, and she kisses me right back, so passionately as ever.

Jessica's POV

I think I'm actually falling in love with Michael. At first it was just a set up to get Lillian more into the plan. But, now I'm falling for him.

'Who are you kidding? This is only acting,' I laugh to myself.

"Michael?" Michael and I both stop kissing to look at the doorway to see Lillian there. "C-can I please go home?"

Once she sees me she looks like a dear caught in headlights. She can't go home, I'd get my head chopped off if Carole sees her there.

"No," I say, "Look we started off on the wrong foot, okay? What Michael did was wrong, you're still very much a teenager still caught in the horror of mood-swings. Just don't go, stay... Please?"

Lillian looks up for a minute, then back down to the floor. Michael gets up and asks if he can talk to Lillian in private, he promised he wouldn't do anything. So at that I left the room.

Michael's POV

Once Jessica leaves the room, Lillian takes a seat down on one of the chairs.

"Lillian, Lillian I'm so sorry," I say, truthfully. I really am sorry.

"Yeah?" She looks up, "Michael, you can't just keep saying sorry, especially if you don't mean it."

"But what you don't understand is that I do mean it," I try and explain, "I like you I do, but I'm in love with Jessica."

"I know," she sighs, with a shaky breath.

"Man," I breath in, "Lillian. Lillian please do not cry."

"Sorry," she wipes her tears away, "Why won't you let me go home?"

"I enjoy your company," I say, when that's the partial truth. If she were to leave I'd be devastated. "And we don't have a phone."

She doesn't say nor do anything for a few minutes.

"Have you seen Edward?" She asks.

For some reason when she asked that, anger boiled within me.

"No," I simply said.

"Okay, I'm going to find him."

Lillian's POV

Once I went into the garden, I spotted Edward watering the plants.

"Hey,  Edward," I smile at him.

"Hey," he smiles, "Look, I know what–"

"Let's just forget about that. I was wondering if you'd like to go out with me?"

"Do you mean like, date each other?"

"Yes," I twist my face up, not wanting to get rejected.

"I'd love to," he smiles, He drops the watering utensils and hugs me. "I would kiss you but, it's just the first day."

Even though we kissed before.

I just shrug that off and hold his hand. Hand and hand we make our way back to the castle.

Edward opens the door for me and grabs my hand again. On our way to the elevator we see Jasper, poking his arm, like he's typing something. I shrug that off and make my way to the elevator with Edward.

"Edward, what's your last name?" I ask out of curiosity.

"Collins," he shrugs.

We make it to my room and sit on the bed. This room is so dry and plain, there's nothing to do.

"I have a board game we could play," I say and hopped off the bed to my closet, "Mmm, Monopoly or Chess?"

"Ummm," he says, tapping his chin in a playful manner, "Yeah, monopoly."

A week later...

Edward and I are stuck together like glue. For some reason we just can't get enough of each other. Michael and Jessica seem to be happy together.

"Edward," I say sternly. "Put my bra down."

Edward and I are in my room, doing nothing. Well I'm doing nothing, he's stealing my bras.

There was a knock on the door, and Edward looks like he just seen a ghost. He hurries to put my bra away.

I say come in and Michael walks through the door.

"Oh, sorry to interrupt, but Jessica and I were wondering if you guys wanted to come to the theatre with us," he says, "It's only on the 12th floor.

"Baby?" I look up at Edward to see what his answer was.

"Actually," he drags out and looks at his watch, "I was supposed to meet Jasper ten minutes ago. Bye, baby."

He kisses me then rushes past Michael, who's shaking his head.

"You have no right to be shaking your head at him," I say, with all the attitude I have, "But yes, I'll go."

He smiles and holds his hand out to me. I look at him then his hand, I don't take it all I do is walk past him.

I make my way down the long hallway and into the elevator. I press the button with the number twelve in it.

A few minutes later, the metal doors open. We're greeted by  Jessica, who's smiling.

"Shall we?" Jessica says, as she hooks her and Michael's arms together.

"Babe!" I turn around and see Edward panting like he was out of breath. "Jasper said he doesn't want me anymore, so I cared to join." He smiles. I smile back at him and grab his hand. We walk in the theatre hand in hand.

Edward and I were about to take a seat in a different row, not with Jessica and Michael. But, Jessica stops us, "Why are you guys not sitting with us?" She fake pouts. "Michael, wouldn't you want them to sit down with us?"

"That'd be... Great..." He says, unsure. I groan and walk in the same row as them. Jessica, Michael, me, and Edward.

This is the gray and white version of snow white.

By the time snow white was knocking on the dwarves' door, I felt something on my thigh. I ignore it and hold Edwards hand.

A few seconds later I feel a squeeze on my thigh. I turn to look at Michael, whose hand is on my thigh and him looking at the movie screen like nothing is happening.

I grab his hand and push it away.

"Excuse me, I have to use the restroom," I say, getting up from my seat.

"Do you know where it's at?" Michael basically jumps out of his seat.
