"When you move somewhere, you're a victim of so many things. I was a victim for Dinger. His reputation in school was to get with every new girl that interested him. And that girl was me,"

By that time we were all on a grassy area in a park, blocks away from our houses. We could tell this was going to be a fairly long story, so we decided to sit down and relax while we listened.

"He would flirt with me, stare at me in class, ask to hang out and I would always say yes. He seemed like one of those guys that just flirt and want to hang out and stuff, my first impression of Dinger was not a bad boy,"

"Anyway, so we would hang out and I guess before I moved, Jordan and a Dinger got into this big fight and they weren't talking. I had asked Dinger about why Jordan was giving me dirty looks whenever she saw me and he just explained that they got into a big fight and Jordan wanted nothing to do with him anymore,"

"So we continued hanging out. He invited me to parties and acted like a normal guy would, completely opposite of actual Dinger. He would talk to me and not be a complete asshole. I had begun to really really like Dinger, and I think he actually started to really like me,"

Dinger not being a complete asshole? That's hard to believe.

"That's when Jordan came in. She started getting really protective over him. She apologized to him, but then started telling Dinger bad things about me to try and keep him away, but it didn't work. Dinger brought me to a party and started making out with me. I guess Jordan saw and she got really mad and grabbed Dinger away to have a really long talk with him,"

"I was so confused at the time, and I wanted to know what they were talking about, so after a couple of seconds I began to follow them. I followed them up to a bedroom of the house. Jordan was yelling at Dinger, and Dinger was yelling back. I couldn't make out what they were saying over the loud music,"

"All I know is that the next day, Dinger wouldn't talk to me. He'd avoid me and everything. Jordan would give me snooty glares, and that's why whenever I'm with Anne and Kaela, she wants nothing to do with you. It's because of me. I have no idea what happened that night, but all I know is that one day, Dinger and I liked each other, and the next day he wanted nothing to do with me," Rio sighed as she finished her story.

"Wow, Rio, I'm really sorry," Emma apologized.

"Eh, it's whatever, I don't really give a shit about either of them anymore," Rio answered.

I couldn't help but feel bad for Rio. She really really liked Dinger and it was ruined in just a day. I wondered what Jordan and Dinger yelled about in the bedroom when Rio went to go find them. What made Dinger change his mind? Was it Jordan who changed it, or his own conscious?

We sat there, thinking about what Rio had just said. It was crazy how Dinger could fall out of love so easily and go onto someone else. I wonder if Rio ever thought of what she and Dinger had a year ago and miss it. I felt horrible.

"And Anne, you said you don't love Dinger anymore?" Kaela asked, turning to me. Emma and Rio looked at me.

"I.. I don't really know anymore. I'm so confused and I've been confused for so long. I'm in love with someone who doesn't love me back. Why would I waste feelings on someone who doesn't give a shit about me?" I shrugged.

"Well, because you love them," Emma said.

I sighed. All of this was confusing and everyday it would get even more confusing. I didn't know what to do about it.

"Rio told me that Dinger's been staring at you a lot in English," Kaela told me.

"Yeah, I heard. I caught him once, but that could mean anything," I answered.

"But what if he likes you back?"

"He doesn't. I can answer that right now. You can't just go from hating someone to falling in love with them in a day. It's normally the other way around. He yelled at me and said some rude stuff to me just the day before, he doesn't like me. I think it's time for me to move on. Or at least, try to move on,"

I bit my lip. I wasn't too sure if I wanted to move on. Dinger made me happy. He gave me butterflies and I swooned over him, but I also have to think about myself. Is this good for me? He bruised my wrists and yelled at me, is liking him even worth it anymore?

We all got up and continued walking. When we got to our streets, we went down them. Emma and Kaela walking down one street, Rio walking down another, and I walking down a different one.

I didn't want to think about Dinger anymore because whenever I did, I'd always fall back in love with him.

Right now, I was sort of 'eh' with him. Do I like Dinger? Eh. Do you not like Dinger? Eh. However, whenever I thought about him, I began thinking about the reasons why I fell in love with him.

His fiery red hair, all spiked up with all the mousse he used. The cigarette balanced between his lips. His smirk that was always plastered on his face. The way he dressed: ripped jeans, ripped t-shirt and sneakers with his cane always in his hand. His green jacket on, even in this boiling hot June weather.

We only had a couple more weeks until the end of school and I was really excited. I had survived an entire year at a new school.

But the year hasn't ended yet, Anne-Marie.
