Keezia would never admit it but the first time she saw Lytton she wanted to scream about how hot he was. I mean, he's no Tom Holland, but the boy sure cleans up well. So when Lytton suddenly comes to school wearing a suit, she is slightly flustered and extremely confused.

"What are you doing?" Keezia giggles as Lytton walks up to her in a boyish manner.

"Walking towards you, am I not allowed?" Keezia rolls her eyes as the boy smirks at her.

"No why are you wearing a suit?" Lytton's face turns into a smile.

"Oh this old thing, it was a dare from one of my friends." 

"Your friends are weird,"

"Have you seen your friends?"

"Yeah, they are pretty weird." Keezia agrees.

"Hey, I heard that!" Jordan the Guy shouts as the whole group walk up to the two teenagers.

"Actually, now that I think about it, we haven't met your friends." Keezia states.

"Do you even have friends?" Martina asks. Lytton rolls his eyes.

"Of course I have friends, I just don't think I'm ready for you guys to meet them." Keezia feels slight hurt.

"Are you embarrassed by me?" Keezia questions with weary eyes.

"NO NO NO NO NO, Of course not. If anything I want to climb onto the roof of the library and scream to the whole of the school that you are my best friend. But I know my friends are gonna tease you and me a lot. They believe in the whole, girls and guys can't be best friends without having feelings for each other." Keezia seems to accept his excuse for now. But she thought that there was something going on between them. As she got to know the boy his charm began to grow on her. Was it not the same for him?

"Well, they are wrong, cause I know some best friends that don't have a crush on each other." Brabra tries to state while holding tightly on her book about drama.

Lytton raises an eyebrow at her. "Yeah, name one."

"Chandler and Monica from friends-"

"Literally get married." Yabbi cuts Brabra off.

"Austin and Ally-"

"Get married as well," Edna cuts her off.

"Rose and Rachel-"

"Are dating at the moment," Tea says while sipping from her cup loudly.

"Ahhhhh........Tori and Andre from Victorious?" Everyone sighs.

"My point is, everyone is gonna think we are dating," Lytton says while putting his hands in his pants pockets.

"Everyone already does," Emumma replies.

"Well-"

"Lytton!" Suddenly a pack of wild boys come rushing towards the group.

Lytton turns to find his friends and his eyes widen with fear. His arm instictively going around Keezia's waist.

"Are these people bothering you mate?" Questions Fletcher that Guy, looking at a still eye wide Lytton.

"No, go away Fletcher That Guy," Says Jordan the Guy.

"What are you doing here?" Fletcher That Guy asks.

"Hangin with my friends, what about you?" Replies Jordan the Guy.

"Hanging with my friends," Fletcher that Guy answers.

"You have friends?" Jordan the Guy asks astonished.

"How do you know each other?" Asks Keezia and Lytton at the same time.

"We're twins," Jordan the Guy and Fletcher that Guy respond in sync.

While the group begin yelling over who knows who, Brabra's eyes are trapped on a boy. He is beautiful, very beautiful. Unbeknownst to her, his name is Joshua and he is really good at singing. Which Brabra really likes in a guy.

While one girl is looking at a boy, a different boy is looking at a different girl. Griffin's eyes watch Edna's every move as she takes selfie's of herself with many different filters for the dance of something (i don't even know man). To him, she is the most beautiful thing he has ever seen. Beauty at it's finest.

Joloshua, Joshua and Yabbi and also Keezia are siblings. Joshua is Keezia's brother and Josholshua is twins with Yabbi. Keezia's mum married Yabbi's dad. And that's the family tree.

So, Joloshua was having an intense staring contest with Martin. Both staring at each other roughly. Sadness watching sadly beside Martin. The first time she has shown emotion in ages. But no one notices.

Yabbi was having an argument with Xavier and Kai, two of Lytton's friends, about the up and coming production and which song is the best.

Tea and Emumma were talking to Damian and Saxon about tea on Lexi. Jordan the Guy and Fletcher that Guy are arguing about who forgot to take out the trash. Rochel is sitting by a tree. Casper is reading The French Girl beside Rochel. And everyone else is arguing over some sort of thing.

"How did you not tell us you were friends with this beautiful girl?" Questions Nevada as he spins Keezia out of Lytton's grip. Lytton's fists clench at his side. Nevada watches the boy with careful eyes.

"Let her go Nevada," Lytton warns as he watches Nevada dance around with Keezia. His hands on her waist. All of a sudden everyone takes notice of the two dancing. The group goes quiet. Then suddenly they all get up and begin to dance too. All except Jordan the Guy, Emumma, and Lytton. 

Lytton's eyes filled with rage and jealousy.

"I thought you didn't like her?" Questions Jordan the Guy.

"I don't-"

"Yes you do," Emumma states while raising an eyebrow at the boy.

"Okay, I do, I just don't know what to do."

"You could start off by telling her," Jordan the Guy offers in advice.

"But what if she doesn't like me?" Jordan the Guy and Emumma look at Lytton like he is growing another head.

"Mate, she is hopelessly in love with you."

"Yeah, it's disgusting."

"What do you have against love Jordan the Guy?!"

"It's stupid and boring and a bunch of poppycock-"

Emumma and Jordan the Guy erupt into an argument about love and Lytton watches Keezia. The way her smile lights up his world. Her blue eyes sparkling. Her hair flowing behind her as she dances. His face morphs into a sad smile.

"One day I will make you smile like that Keezia," Lytton mumbles quietly to himself before turning and walking towards the school. HIs head hung low. Just before he enters the building he turns around to look at Keezia. Their eyes meet for a split second. Keezia stops smiling and breaks away from Nevada, beginning to walk to Lytton. She raises an eyebrow at him and he shakes his head. Then turns around and walks into the building. Leaving behind a confused Keezia as she stands in the middle of the group dancing around her.
