We all sat down around the table that we claimed as 'ours' the beginning of this year, which wasn't really long ago. It felt nice when we all sat together again. Kind of as if we were never even separated in the first place.

"So what's up with all these semi-threats from Jeff to Justin?" Rebecca couldn't keep gossip away from her, she always had to be the first to know. She never spread any around anyways. For her, knowing all of this was 'just entertainment' for her.

I shifted uncomfortably in my chair remembering Justin's last text to me. "Uh. Justin kind of told me he liked me and Jeff saw the text.."

"Oh my god! You have two boys going after you? I want that." She pouted while eating her food.

"Don't you have Alex?" Ace wiggled her eyebrows at the blonde blushing girl who just smiled.

"And how's it going with Monty?" Becca winked over at Ace who just rolled her eyes.

"Don't get me started on that boy." The brunette groaned shaking her head.

"Oo. Monty?" I asked with a smirk.

She shrugged as she drank her drink,"He keeps talking to me. I'm not interested in fuckboys, though."

"Damn girl. You tell 'em." Maddy chuckled at her sass.

"Oh, shut up. What about you?" Ace raised her eyebrows while Maddy just shook her head and looked down. "What? I mean you have to get over Je-Jensen." Her eyes widened a bit before stuffing her face with food.

I gasped lightly at the new piece of information. "You're crushing on Clay and you didn't even tell me?"

Maddy's eyes were wide as well but she shrugged and ate more. "It-it was just a little crush. I don't like him anymore." She said quickly making my eyebrows furrow.

"So Jeff, Clay, and I were going to go to the Crestmont theater and then to Monet's. Wanna come?" I asked no one in particular, since I knew that most everyone had things to do.

"Practice."

"Hanging out with Alex."

"Uh..dance..?" Madeline looked at me win hopeful eyes.

"Nope. You said dance was cancelled after school today." I pointed out, stealing one of her French fries.

She sighed and nodded,"Okay. I'll go. He doesn't hate me still..does he?"

"No. He's all cool" I smiled reassuringly at her.

"Why did he hate me anyways? I didn't do anything to him."

"He just couldn't believe that you would do something like that to your best friend, I guess." I shrugged with a small smirk. Madeline was so oblivious to everything around her, so the fact that she didn't know Jeff used to like her, didn't surprise me.

Clay decided to drive today and picked everyone up from their houses to go to the theater. Maddy sat in the passenger seat while Jeff and I sat in the back.
