Alison's POV

I put my hand on my left cheek, she had hit me. Callie had hit me. Alright I deserved it, but did she had to do it in front of my friends?

I still couldn't believe she was Adrianna, I regretted hurting that girl so much, I wanted a second chance to make it up to her, but I didn't meant it like this. Callie is never going to forgive me, she even told me herself. She even gave me the ring back, I looked at it, I still didn't believe it.

"Ali, are you alright?" Maia asked as she placed her hand on top of mine.

I looked up at them, they all had the same expression as me, shocked. Especially Maia, Amy and I because we were at that party. "I can't believe she's that girl." I said in disbelieve.

"Me neither, she was hot back then, but now she's smoking hot." Amy said, of course she had to say something like that right now. We all looked at her. "What? It's true and you two know it!" Amy said while looking at Maia and me.

"What are you going to do now?" Macy asked.

I looked back down at the ring. "I don't know." I said, a tear fell down on my hands. I was crying, I finally began to realize I lost Callie, not only her but also Ariel. I love them so much and now I lost them because of what I did four years ago. "God I was stupid back then!" I almost shouted while I whipped the tears away.

"Yep, you were." Amy said, still having no problem hurting my feelings.

"You weren't, you were just...naive." Maia said and gave me a weak smile. "Go talk to Callie, don't let her go. You both clearly love each other. You two are meant to be together, fate brought you two back together, isn't that obvious?"

I looked back up at her. "Maybe."

"Talk to her, I promise it'll get better. But do that maybe after school." Maia said, to which I nodded.

After that the bell rang, first period was about to start. Callie was in this class, although I don't think she's going to show up, but I don't blame her. If I was her, I wouldn't show up either. My friends walked out of class and at the same time the students entered the classroom. I turned on the computer and waited for it to be ready, I logged myself in and searched for my files. While I was doing that, I didn't look up to the students so they were talking to each other, obviously.

When I was done, I walked to the door, closed it and went to stand in front of the class. My eyes wandered through the class and that's when I saw her, Callie. She came. She came to my class, maybe there is hope for us.

I instructed them to work on a few exercises, afterwards I went to sit back at my desk and went through some papers. While I was doing that, I felt someone's gaze on me. I discretely looked up and saw Callie looking at me. She obvious didn't saw I was looking otherwise she would've looked away by now. I ignored her for the rest of the period until the bell rang. Everyone hurried outside, except for Callie.

Callie stood in front of my desk, she didn't say anything, she just looked at me. I kept my head low, still looking at my papers. I was done with my work but I didn't want to look up at her, I can't believe I'm scared of looking at her, I still love her. I think I'm scared that she will say she doesn't love me anymore.

After awhile she cleared her throat and that's when I looked at her in reflex. I cursed inside at my stupidity and waited for her to say something, but she didn't. We looked at each other, she didn't look angry or sad or happy, she didn't show any emotion. After awhile, she walked away without saying a single word to me.

That was weird, I thought.

________________________________________

"So she didn't say anything at all?" Maia asked, clearly not understanding Callie's behavior. We were talking about it for the past 10 minutes. None of us understood why she behaved like that. Maybe she just wanted to make sure I noticed her, but she should've known by now that her presence won't escape my sight.
