Joelle P.O.V

I ran after Rydel in the cafeteria. I saw her on the staircase sitting down. Every one else that sat at our table was right behind me. 

“Rydel, it’s okay.” I said. “No, it’s not. Ross changed because of that girl. I don’t even know what he see’s in her.” She said as tears were coming down her face. Rocky wiped her tears. 

“None of us do Rydel.” Riker said. “Let’s just go back to lunch.” Ryland suggested. We all nodded and walked back into lunch avoiding eye contact with Jocelyn and her crew. 

We sat down and it all became quiet again. Until that girl and boy came at our table and gave Rydel a hug. 

“Thank you.” The girl said. Rydel smiled. “Your welcome.” She replied. “Why don’t you sit down with us?” Melody suggested. They agreed and every one made room for them. 

“So what are your names?” Jenna asked. “I’m Katie and this is my brother Jordan.” We waved Hi to them and got to know each each other more. The bell rang and it was time for our next class. 

Katie P.O.V

I made new friends! I was so excited. Usually Jordan and I would sit in the library and eat our lunch because we were never good at making friends. As I was entered my History class I saw Ryland. 

“Katie, come and be my partner!” He shouted. I smiled and sat next to him. “Partner for what?” I asked. “The teacher just told us to get in pairs and you were the first person I thought of. Plus, I kinda want to get to know you a little better ever since we spoke in lunch.” He said. I was now blushing and I nodded. 

I think he likes me!

Riker P.O.V

Joelle and I were in the library. It was study hall for our class because we had a big test coming up. 

“So, what’s your answer?” Joelle asked. “I don’t know. I’m to lazy to think.” I said. She giggled a bit and nodded. I loved her giggle. She was to adorable. The funny thing with Joelle and I was that we both admitted that we liked each other, but neither of us made the first move. Maybe I should. 

“Hey Joelle. Are you free tomorrow night?” I asked. “Why?” “Because I just thought that maybe you and I should go and catch a movie.” I replied. “As in a date?” She asked. 

“Yeah if that’s cool with you.” I said. “Of course I would!” I smiled a from ear to ear. “So I’ll pick you up at 8?” “Absolutely!” She answered. “Okay, let’s back to studying.” I said. She smiled and nodded. 

Melody P.O.V

It was now science class and the Mr. Brakstein was assigning partners. I got paired with Ross. It was a good thing but yet a bad thing. Ross and I settled down at a lab table and we had to disect an Owl’s pellet. (Basically it was dried up owl vomit! Gross!) 

“Okay, first we need to feel if the vomit is soft or hard.” I said. I put on the safety gloves and touched the throw up. “Okay, it’s hard. Meaning that-” “The song was about Jocelyn. Wasn’t it?” Ross asked as he interrupted me. 

I looked up into his perfect hazel eyes. I didn’t want him to know that the song was about his girlfriend. “What if it is? Are you gonna tell her?” I asked. “No. I just wanted to know. It’s a really good song.” He said. “Thanks.” I replied. 

We were the first ones done with the disecting and we had 10 minutes of free time til the bell rang. So Ross and I just sat there. “What do you see in her?” I asked. “See in who?” “Jocelyn. Do you even love her?” I asked. “Of course I do!” Ross exclaimed, but he had a little doubt in his voice. 

I nodded and looked back at the disected vomit. “What makes you think I don’t?” Ross asked. “I can see it in your eyes. Your always looking at where I sit. It looks like as if you miss hanging out with your siblings. And what happened earlier during lunch. You looked like you wanted to slap Jocelyn when she was talking to Rydel like that.Plus, every time your with Jocelyn you always look at her as if you question your love with her.” I replied. 

Ross P.O.V

Everything Melody was saying to me is true. I did question my love for Jocelyn and I did miss hanging out with my old friends.  And I can’t stand the way Jocelyn was treating Rydel earlier. 

I couldn’t let her know that she was right. So I changed the subject. 

“Do you think you could tutor me after school?” I asked. “Don’t you have to be with Jocelyn?” She asked. “I’ll just make an excuse.” I said. “Okay, fine.” 

The day was finally over and I headed towards Melody’s house for tutoring.

I don’t know why but every time I was with Melody, I would have an urge to just kiss her. She just drives me crazy, no Insane! I can never get her off my mind. Maybe I am falling for her. 

Jenna P.O.V

Rocky called me and wanted to come over. He said he wanted to talk to me. He sounded serious on the phone. I was in my room and that’s when I heard the door open. It was Rocky. 

“Hey, how’d you get in here?” I asked. “Your sister let me in and told me you were in your room.” He answered. I nodded. “So what did you need to talk to me about?” I asked. “I just need someone to talk to.” He said. “I’m always here for you.” I said. “I know.” He said. “So what’s wrong?” I asked. 

“I like her so much.” He said. I was a little heart broken that he liked somebody else. “Who? Do I know her?” I asked. “Yeah you do know her.” He answered. I nodded. “So if you like her. Talk to her.”  

He looked down at his hands and played with his thumbs. “I don’t know. She won’t like me.” He said. I lifted up his chin and he looked into my eyes.

“Don’t say that. You’re amazing!” I said. “I just want her to know how I feel.” Rocky said. “Then tell her for goodness sake!” I exclaimed. “She won’t like me.” “How do you know that?” I asked. “Maybe I can tell her.’ He said. 

“Then tell her.” I said. “What should I say?” He questioned. “Tell her how much you like her.” “I tell her daily.” He answered. “What do you mean?” I asked. “I’m always with her.. I love her.” He answered. “I know how you feel. I have the same problem. But he’ll never like me.” I replied. 

Rocky P.O.V

I looked into her eyes. “Who do you like?” I asked. “Oh, some boy.” She answered. “Oh. She won’t like me either.” I said. “Rocky, she does like you.” “How do you know?” I asked. “Because what person wouldn’t like you?” She asked. “You.” I said. 

“No Rocky. Your wrong. I do love you. You’ve always been there for me.”She said. “I love you too Jenna.” I replied. “So are you going to talk to her?” Jenna asked. “I just did.” I said. 

She looked into my eyes and I looked into to hers. She leaned in and I did as well. I felt sparks when our lips touched! This was too perfect.
