But then, there was you

Yeah, then, there was you

Pull me out of the crowd

You were telling the truth, yeah

I got something to say now

'Cause you tell me that there's nowhere I couldn't go

Nothing I couldn't do.

[Same night]

Hailee's P.O.V.

Breathe, Haiz. Breathe.

He should be here any minute now and you don't want to look like a mess when he does. And besides, you have nothing to worry about, it's not the first time that Jack comes over anyway, things are gonna be fine. Nothing will be different.

Except this time, you two will be alone together.

And that doesn't mean anything, right?

Right?

I groan in frustration as I put my lip gloss down and stare at my reflection in the mirror, taking in my rather unusual appearance. God, I feel like a girl. I've curled my hair a little at the ends, I'm wearing something that's not sweatpants and hoodie, and I have makeup on. What is happening to me?

I groan again and bury my face in my hands as I begin pacing around the room. God, I wish Sofia was here. At least I would've felt less pressure with her around. But unfortunately, she's studying at the library and won't be back before later tonight, Sabrina's spending the night at Ariana and Alessia's place since Ari's tutoring her for biology, and Shawn had something to take care of last minute so I'm here by myself.

I don't even know why I'm so God-damned worried about Jack coming over tonight. It's really not that big of a deal. I mean, after he's just Shawn's friend and now mine.

Correction: he's just Shawn's incredibly hot and incredibly sweet friend whose breathtakingly beautiful smile can make any girl in this world melt, even ME. No reason to be worried, right?

Wrong. Dead wrong.

For a while now, I couldn't even admit it to myself that I do, but I actually like Jack. And I absolutely hate it. I mean, it's not him, really, there's nothing wrong with him, it's actually me who has a problem here. Because ever since I realized that I really did like him, I've wanted to just throw up.
