Chapter 1

        I was in my room when my phone rings. I've got the eye of the tiger-"ugh! wait a minute!" I got up from my chair and tried to reach for my phone but because my arms are too short, I need to walk towards my king size bed to get it.

   I grabbed my phone and answered the call without looking at the caller I.D "Hello?" I asked, waiting for the caller to respond,

       "uhm hi Ashley.."  Oh it's Cassie. Her voice cracked at the end and you could tell that she's crying.

         "Cassie, why are you crying?" I asked her gently.

          "Zach broke up with me." She sniffed and broke into loud sobs.

       WHAT?!

        Zach Anderson is known to be 'the bad boy' in our school. I really don't know him that much. I only remembered I had a tiny inny little crush on him way back in middle school. I thought he was attractive back then.

Flashback:

       "Hey Ashley where are you going?" my friend asked me as she noticed that I'm not going the way where she headed.

        "I need to go to the library to do a research for our homework in English."

I replied.

          "Just make sure to call me after you're done with your homework okay?" She reminded me as she looked at me with furrowed eyebrows. 

         "Okay bye!" I shouted back while running towards the library.

         "hmm.. what book should -aaaaagh!" I tripped as I was about to stepped on the next level of the ladder. I waited for the impact of the ground hurting my back. My eyes automatically shut closed. But I felt nothing.

         I opened my eyes and saw a boy, about my age, staring down at me as he was able to catch me at the right second. He's very handsome with his long nose, his ocean blue eyes and his kissable pinkish soft lips, as if I was looking to one of Michaelangelo's painting.

           "Miss are you okay?" He asked, concern etched in his features. 

        I blushed not because of my clumsiness at that time but because he was carrying me bridal style. When he realizes I was not going to reply any second now. He put me down.

          "Uhm, I think so." I mumbled as I tried to stand up properly because my legs are shaking uncontrollably.

       "Thanks for uhm...the help."I tried not to blush because he's so cute.

       "It's nothing. Just be careful next time." He advised and scratched the back of his neck.

         "uh.. I'm Ashley Gates." I streched my hand towards him.

          "Zach Anderson." He smiled showing his gorgeous white teeth and cute dimples then shook my hands.

         "Nice to meet you Zach." I smiled back.

End of flashback

         I was totally shocked.  Out of all  people, why Zach?

     "W-what? When did you start dating him and why didn't you tell me?" I inquired, frowning at the thought of her not trusting me enough to tell me who she was dating. I'm her best friend she can tell me anything.
