"Did you finish the quiz in Science?" I ask Grayson as we sit down at our table and he groans and I laugh.

"I'll take that as a no." I look over at the end of the table and see a girl sitting alone with a book in her hands.

I poke Grayson and tell him I would be back. I get up and walk over towards the girl. "Hi." I sat as I sit down next to her.

She looks up at me and I instantly recognize her. "Maddie?!" I scream in a girly voice and she squeals.

I pull her into a tight hug and then pull back, admiring her face, as if I hadn't seen her in forever. Which I haven't.

Maddie was my bestfriend back in New York. We hadn't talked ever since I moved. We sorta just drifted apart.

"What are you doing here?" I ask as she puts a bookmark in her book and closes it, her attention now back on me.

"Mom and Dad decided to move here. Thankfully, New York was getting boring without having my bestfriend by my side." She nudges me and I smile.

I still couldn't believe it. Maddie was here. Right now. With me. After forever.

"Have you made any friends yet?" I ask and she shakes her head. "Nah. No one seems to be that cool here yet."

I laugh, "That's what i thought when I first came here. Did you see the ladies in the office?" I laugh again as Maddie rolls her eyes in disgust.

"They're worse than Mrs. Cooper." (Betty Cooper? Is that you?) I laugh and remember the old lady at our school that would always sit in the back of me and Maddie's math class.

"You should come sit with me and my friends." I suggest and Maddie nods. She grabs her stuff and follows me towards were we sit.

She sits down next to me and Grayson gives me a weird look as I turn to face Maddie. Not meaning to shut Grayson out.

Alissa comes with her pizza with Ethan and Layla. I roll my eyes and lean on Grayson, while he plays with my hair.

Maddie gives me a look and I smile, "Let me introduce you to everyone." I point at Alissa and Ethan and they introduce themselves.

"This is Grayson." I pat Grayson's hand that was resting on my thigh. "Everyone this is Maddie. My bestfriend." Maddie waves with a friendly smile.

Alissa scoffs and I glare at her. "Then what am I?" She looks hurt and I can tell she is joking around. "You're my Jersey bestfriend. Maddie is my New York bestfriend."

Alissa smiles and nods, "That's better." I laugh and Maddie changes the subject. "Have you talked to Jacob?" I feel Grayson tense up at the mention of Jacob.

"No. Why?" She looks away and then back at me, "He is moving." I raise an eyebrow, "Where to?" "New Jersey. His dad got a new job as a principle and its here, in New Jersey."

Grayson gets up and I nearly fall on my back, since I was leaning on him the whole time. "Here we go." Alissa says under her breath. "Fuck this whole Jacob shit." He storms off and I watch him leave.

I shake my head and rub my temples. "He knows Jacob?" Maddie asked, obviously confused by Grayson's sudden actions. I nod.

"Grayson is my boyfriend and he knows about Jacob because I told him. Alissa and Ethan know about him too." I look over at Alissa who was talking Ethan out of running after Grayson.

Layla had left once Grayson left to go sit with that bitch, Vanessa. The bell rings, signaling that lunch was now over. I get up and wave bye to Ethan and Alissa and walk alongside Maddie.

She looks down at her schedule and I smile, "Hey, you have the last two periods with me. English and Dance." She smiles and cheers.

"Well, I'll walk you to math. Its right next to my history class." She nods and thanks me. "So, do you know if the principle is being replaced?" Maddie asks once we reach her class.

"I don't. But if I do find out, I'll let you know. When does he move?" "During sometime in February." I nod and hug Maddie, squeezing her tight.

"Bye. I'll see you next period." I wink and walk towards history.

I slam my locker door shut and try to hold back the tears that were starting to come. I walk quickly out of school once I saw Grayson, Alissa, nd Ethan all walking towards me.

I quickly walk home, ignoring all the whispering. I slam the door shut and lock it. I slide down the door to the floor with my hand over my mouth, trying to stop me from sobbing.

The tears flowing from my eyes and my breathing starts to get heavy. How was this not affecting Grayson? Oh that's right, because he is the one that did it.

I bring my knees up to my chest and bury my face into them, the tears still falling from my eyes at a fast pace. I soon hear knocking and ignore it, not wanting to be seen like this.

It is repetitive and won't go away so I get up and walk up to my bathroom and shut the door, locking it behind me. I stare at myself in the mirror, my mascara running down my cheeks and I looked like a mess.

I pull out the paper from my pocket and stare at the picture that was printed onto it. Along with the little letter at the bottom. Tears now falling at a steady pace as I stare at the picture. Feeling empty inside.

I thought he was different. I thought he said he didn't do that anymore. Why would he lie to me like that?

{A/N: HEY GUYSS!! What do you think Gray lied about? Its pretty obvious but still...might as well see what you think. Comment what you thought😄 I love y'all, STAY SMEXY😘}
