Mackenzie's POV:

After the workout session, Jon disappeared for a bit and Colby, Joe and I went to get some water.

" Mackenzie, you're good at wrestling. You would make an awesome diva. " said Joe.

" Really?? " I asked.

" Yeah, you did really well. " said Colby.

" That really means a lot. " I said.

" If it was coming from Colby then it must have, if you know what I mean. " said Joe, elbowing me. " I mean you did look like you were having fun after you tripped over. "

" Dude. " said Colby, slightly blushing.

" I thought only Jon would come up with stuff like that. " I said.

" Where is he by the way? " asked Colby.

" I don't know. He told me that he had some very important work to do.  When I asked him what it was, he snapped at me. " said Joe.

" I'll go look for him. " I said.

" Ok. " said the boys.

I was walking down the corridors by the gym but I couldn't find Jon anywhere so I went to look outside. I was walking past an alley when I heard quiet sobbing. The alley was quite dark so I couldn't see a thing. I walked slowly down the alley to see where the sobbing was coming from. 

As I got closer, I saw a dark figure on the ground. I kept walking when I noticed the dark figure was Jon. Why was Jon crying?? I ran up to him and pulled him into a hug.

" Jon why are you crying? What happened? You were perfectly fine in the gym. " I said, concerned.

" W.....what, nothing, I......I'm fine. Please l......leave. " he said.

" No Jon, not until you tell me what's going on. I thought we were gonna be besties and besties share everything with each other. " I said.

Then he broke down in my arms.

" I've been a mess. " he said, still sobbing. " Ever since Renee broke up with me, I've been a mess. I'm always angry and I snap at everyone. Before I dated Renee, I was like I am now, and when she came into my life, she changed me. I became a better person and people were really shocked when I was actually being nice to people and not snapping or insulting people. It was my first serious relationship and I was really happy with her until one day, she broke up with me. She said that it just wasn't working. It broke me inside and since then, I was back to my old self. I don't really know why I'm telling you this. I guess I feel like you are the only girl I can trust. When we met yesterday, I thought you might be some scared little girl and I thought I could insult you but I saw you with that big smile on your face and you looked really excited and when you hugged me, I felt like I could trust you with anything. "

" I'm so sorry that happened to you Jon. I know how hard it is when someone breaks up with you, trust me, I've experienced the pain, but maybe it's a sign. " I said.

" What do you mean? " he asked.

" I mean, maybe Renee wasn't the right girl for you. Maybe the universe is trying to tell you that somewhere out there is a beautiful girl waiting for you and someone who will accept you for you. " I said.

" You really think so? " he asked.

" I know so. " I said.

" Thanks Mac. I know we've only known each other for two days but I feel like we are really close like best friends. Just promise me that you won't tell Joe or Colby. " he said.

" I promise. And remember, if you need someone to talk to, I'm here for you. Now wipe your tears and put a smile on your face. I'm sure Joe and Colby are starting to get worried on where we are. " I said, pulling him up.

" I'm sure Colby is worrying where you are. " said Jon, slightly smiling.

" Hey. " I said, blushing.

" I know Colby very well. When we get back, he will run up to you, give you a hug and say the exact words, ' Mackenzie, I was....I mean WE were really worried about you. You took so long.' " he said.

" That's the Jon I know. He will really say that?? " I asked.

" Positive. " he said.

" Come on let's go bestie. " I said, taking his hand.

**********************************************************************

We made it back to the gym, Jon looking as cheerful as ever. Jon is now my best friend and it hurts me to see him so upset. I saw Joe and Colby starting to look worried. As we walked closer I heard Colby say, " Maybe we should call one them. " 

Then Colby turned around and saw me. He ran up to me and pulled me into a hug. Then he said, " Mackenzie, I was...I mean WE were really worried about you. You took so long. " I looked at Jon and we both started laughing.

" W.......why are you laughing? " he asked.

" What happened? " asked Joe.

" Well Jon told me that when we would get back, you would run up to me and give me hug and then say the exact words you said now. " I explained.

" You mean I said every word in the correct order as Jon predicted. " he asked.

" Yep. " said me and Jon together.

" That's creepy. " said Joe.

" I know. "said Colby. " Are you psychic or something? " he asked.

" No, I just know you very well. I knew you would run up to Mac first. " he said.

" Whatever. " he said, looking down, blushing.

" Where were you anyway? " asked Joe.

Me and Jon both froze. We didn't think of an excuse. Crap.

" Um.....well.....you see..."

" I was just outside getting some fresh air when Mac found me and we talked then we both came inside. " said Jon.

" Yeah. " I said.

" Ok because I was a little bit worried about you when you snapped then walked out. " said Joe.

" Yeah sorry about that. " said Jon. " I just felt a bit suffocated inside. "

" Come on we better get going. " I said,  smiling at the thought that Colby ran to me first.
