The next day at school,I tried to avoid Miles as much as possible.But,as you might know,that's very difficult when we have almost every class together.I overheard gossip that Jasmine broke up with him.

I accidentally caught his eye in Chemistry and he looked really angry.He glared at me in every class that day.

It also didn't surprise me that Laura wasn't talking to me.

Outraged,I told Skylar about the whole situation at lunch.She looked down and pushed her food around with her fork.

"What's wrong?" I asked.She wasn't usually like this.

Erik watched Skylar in concern,his green eyes trying to follow hers.

"Nothing." she whispered,still looking down at her food,her hair now falling around her face so I couldn't see her eyes anymore.I know something was up.

"Sky,something's wrong.What is it?Whats bothering you?You're never like this unless something is really wrong." I was concerned about her.

"Well,I um..." she said.

"SPIT IT OUT,KID" I yelled and threw my hands in the air.Erik laughed a little but coughed to cover it up.A few heads turned but I don't care.

"IKindaToldOneOfMilessFriends
AboutTheThingWithJasmineAndMilesAndYouAndIThinkHeToldMilesAnd
NotLauraAndItsMyFaultAndImSorry" she finally spilled.I sat there in shock.I forgot I told Skylar too.I wouldn't even SUSPECT her,she wouldn't do that.Wow.

Erik dropped his fork on his plate and raised his eyebrows in shock,still not saying anything.

She looked up at me,finally,looking guilty.She looked as if she pitied me.Sick.

So,I got up and left.Yup,I left my lunch there,took my bags,got up, and left.I ran home,not caring that I was missing my classes later.My mom lived close by,so I went there.I had lunch last period for some reason so it wasn't a crime to go home 10 minutes early.It was Thursday,which meant I was going to my Dads tonight.At least I could tell Miranda about it and she could listen.She was my only friend right now.

No Laura.

No Miles.

No Skylar.

No Erik.

No Jasmine.

Jasmine.

That's it!I knew what to do to make this better!

I ran and came in the door.My mom was in the living room watching Rubber on Netflix.

"Hails?What are you do-"

"Mom,I need a bike,a guitar,a microphone,and a whole lot of confidence." I interrupted her.

She looked suspicious,but she never gets into my personal business.

She nodded,got up quickly and went in her room.

This was gonna be great.
