Josh - Tell or Don't tell

(Split won 4-1-0)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Alright Tahani what you need to do is split from Josh but don't go after Julian," Kaycee said

"But-"

"-Nope you told me I should make your decision and I did," Kaycee said "Look I can tell you tried but you don't like Josh in that way but you can't just go after someone with a girlfriend"

"So, what I'm just supposed to sit here and do nothing?" Tahani said

"Exactly," Kaycee said

"Okay... I never broke up with anyone so this is going to be rough" Tahani said as the bell rang

"Do it during lunch, food will soften the blow," Kaycee said as they start to head to their next class

Lunch

"Wow cold-blooded" Sean said after hearing about Tahani going to split from Josh

"Stop!" Tahani said "I already feel bad"

"Hey you're the one who likes Julian," Bailey said "It only makes sense"

"You're just happy Josh will be single again" Kaycee mentioned

"No, I'm serious, it's just wrong to be wanting someone while with someone else, I would say the same if it was Sean for example," Bailey said "But not going to lie that plays a factor too"

"I just don't even know what to say," Tahani said "It's not like Josh is some big tough guy he's just a big softie with tendencies of being dense"

"Here they come," Sean said as Josh and Julian finally joined them

"Sorry for the wait but Josh had to get something," Julian said sitting down

"Yeah, I realized I haven't been the best boyfriend so I got Tahani this bear!" Josh said revealing the pocket-sized toy bear

"Josh..." Tahani said shocked at the gift

"Oh, and it smells like chocolate, take a sniff," Josh said as Tahani did indeed smell the bear and it smelled like milk chocolate

"Wow," Tahani said, "Thank you..."

"It was my pleasure," Josh said while giving her a side hug as he sat down next to her "Best girlfriend I ever had"

"She's your second girlfriend," Sean said

"Which shows how awful the first one was" Julian added as Sean nodded remember Josh's ex-girlfriend

"Tahani!" Kaycee said trying to remind Tahani "Don't you have something to say to Josh"

"Um..." Tahani said

"Yeah something about your relationship" Bailey added

"Oh, what is it?" Josh asked

"..." Tahani failed to speak "You haven't taken me on a date yet"

"Yeah, I meant to ask you that in private but I guess I can ask now," Josh said "Dinner and a movie Friday?"

"Wait isn't our movie day Friday?" Sean questioned

"Well I figured since Bailey has her date, you wouldn't mind me and Tahani missing it too," Josh said as Bailey groaned being reminded of her date with Kenneth

"Aye me Sean and Kaycee are going to have a blast!" Julian said

"Tahani!" Kaycee whispered reminding her of her plan
