~Tomika~
"I think it's time to come out and be honest. I-I have something to tell you... I-"

I stopped and gulped. The truth is finally coming out. I'm going to tell Zack I like him. I'm ready for whatever happens so if he doesn't like me back, I know I can handle it. Oh no I can't handle it! Not ready. NOT READY!

"Tomika. What is it?" He asked patiently. I looked into his kind eyes and waited a second before speaking.

"Okay, here it goes... Zack, I've been keeping my biggest secret from you since we met and I've been wanting to tell you but I just didn't know when the time was right. You're just so... awesome and cute and the best friend ever and I could never replace you. You're so unique and caring. You're so special to me and I've liked you for a while now and I just want to tell you that I love you so much as a friend or more or I don't know how I feel! But I have a huge, HUGE crush on you." I finished and a tear fell down my face. I had been choking on my words and tearing up the entire time.

"Tomika... I don't know what to say..." he stood there in shock increasing the distance between us. My chest was rising up and down with my frantic breathing. Tears streamed down my face as I awaited his reply. This... is the moment of reveal...

"I-I um." And out of no where he rushed up to me and did the unspeakable. "I love you." He stared into my eyes and before I could think, he crashed his lips onto mine.

I was shocked at first but then reality kicked in. My crush just said he loves me and kissed me!!!! OMG OMG OMFG!

I kissed him back and it was the best feelings ever.

After 30 seconds, he pulled away and smiled. "Could Of confessed to me sooner, T. I would date you in a heartbeat." He tried catching his breath, still holding me close.

"Wait, you like me back?" I asked. "Tomika, I love you. I would never explain my feelings for you with the word 'like'." he laughed.

"I think I love you too." I stared into his eyes. "But let me know for sure." I smirked and kissed him again for five seconds.

"Yeah, I definitely do." I smiled.

"So... wanna be my girlfriend?" He asked. "Of course." I smile and hugged him.

"I feel so relieved! I've like you since we met and we're finally together. What do you think Erika will say." I laughed.

We'll just have to see.

~Summer~

"What!? They're dating!?" Erika shrieked at the photo on my phone.

"Yeah, I didn't know she liked him at all! Guess I didn't know much about her." I shrugged.

"B-but he's mine!" She cried. "Uh, you don't own Zack." Lawrence said.

"But I thought he liked me!" Erika said. "Apparently not. I mean, he looks in love with her and according the internet, they're official." Freddy said matter-of-factly.

"Hey, Tomika, hey Zack." I greeted as they tried walking past us.

"Hi, Summer." Tomika said with a glare.

"So... what's happening here?" Lawrence asked as if we didn't know. "Oh, you didn't hear? Zack and I are dating now. Isn't that right, boops?" Tomika said and smiled at Zack.

"Well,im sure you two will make a lovely couple." Erika tried faking nice.

"Oh, honey. Don't act like you didn't just call MY boyfriend YOURS." Tomika smirked.

"Well he did tell me he liked me. We were practically dating." She said.

"I never said that. Or liked you." Zack said.

"Well it won't last long! You know why?-"

"Don't care!" Tomika cut her off while walking away with Zack.

"Ugh! She is such a... a.. a bitxh!" She yelled.

"And you're a hoe. Get a life and your own man." Tomika yelled over her should.

"Ugh. I just can't." Erika strutted away.

I just shook my head. What is happening to my friends?
