**********

Daniel John Key. My lab partner and my best friend. He was the best thing that has ever happened to me. He made me smile, laugh and he made the happiest person alive. 

I fell in love with my best friend and everything changed when I decided to tell him.

** Yesterday **

Daniel: There she is!

*I turned around, looking at Daniel who was holding a balloon on his right and a bouquet of roses on his left*

Daniel: Happy Birthday Elizabeth Valentine Blythe. Here's a balloon for you and a

*He took out a small wrapped box from his bag and gave it to me*

Daniel: Special birthday/Valentine's Day gift for a special girl.

Beth: Aww, Dan you didn't have to. 

Daniel: Don't open your gift yet. I'm gonna need you to open that after school. It's a surprise.

Beth: Alright. What are those roses for?

Daniel: Do you know Maya? The girl I sit next to in English?

Beth: Yeah, what about her?

Daniel: Ever since the start of this year, I kinda like her.

*He likes her? HE likes HER? Why?*

Beth: Why?

Daniel: Well, first of all she's kinda hot. Second, she's kinda hot! So that basically sums up why I like her. She's hot! Do you have a problem with that?

*He looked at me suspiciously.*

Beth: No, nothing at all. So the roses, they're for her?

Daniel: Yeah. Since it's Valentine's Day I might ask her out, Wouldn't that be romantic?

Beth: Have you seen the notebook?

Daniel: Yeah. We watched it together, remember? We both cried. Actually, I did. Why?

Beth: You're a girl!

*I laughed and gave him a nudge.*

Daniel: Oh shit, it's 9:05. Better get to English. Ms Clarke would kill me if I'm late.

*He gave me a quick hug and ran to class. I had History for first zone. Mr Williams was a pretty chill teacher and he's so nice to the class. He lets us do whatever we want in class sometimes. He doesn't care at all.*

Mr Williams: Alright class. So last week we had a test on WWII and I have your test results right here.

*He started giving out the test papers to the class.*

Mr Williams: Elizabeth. Top of the class with 98%. Well done!

*HECK YEAH! Aced another test and I'm all good. Mr Williams gave out everyone's test results and people's faces tell me that they did a great job too. This class is really easy, I tell you.*

Mr Williams: Listen up class. Our average class result is pretty high with a score of 86%. All of you did well so do whatever you want for the rest of the zone.

Class: YEAH! WOOH!

*I told you. Mr Williams was the best teacher in Countland High. I was so happy with my score and the class' average result. We did pretty good in the test. During the whole zone, I couldn't stop thinking about Daniel. How could he like Maya? I know I have no business in interfering with his love life but seriously, Maya? Maya Rose Trewin? The high school slut. The popular blonde. Captain of the cheer squad. Another thing you need to know about her is that she hates me. Funny because I HATE HER TOO. This hate relationship of ours happened because I'm friends with Daniel John Key. The hottest guy in school. Mr Hot Guy is what every girl calls him. She hates to deal with the fact that a nobody like me and a guy like Dan would become best friends. The difference between us though is that I don't fuck with every guy I see in the school campus. I'm just a nobody that bumped into Daniel in freshman year and after that became great friends with him. He's different, you know. He's the nicest person I have ever met and I see him as Dan and he sees me as Beth. We tell each other everything. We're like two peas in a pod.*
