           2 hours later/12:00pm...
     I finally arrive at the house that Liam told me to go to. I get out and walk into the house, not even caring about the bags. I could get them later. The house I was suppose to be staying at, looked more like a log house. It was made of wood, not like his parents house. I knock on the door and Liam says...
"Come in!"
     I walk into the house, and he is sitting their, at a table, with candles burning, and a lunch already made. I walked in, but wondered. How did he do all of this, and I was following his car the entire time. I even saw him get out the car, while I was pulling in the drive way. But it didn't matter, I just wanted to eat something. I was starving!
     I walked toward the table, and Liam got up, to pull my chair out. Then when I sat down, he pulled it up.
"Lunch, is served!" He said, pulling the metal thing up, revealing the food. (I never knew what the metal thing was called, so I just said thing). There was some roast beef sandwiches, and some orange slices. I knew it was a little weird, but I could see the steam from the freshly cooked roast beef, and like I said before, I was starving. The sandwiches were cut in half, so I grabbed about 4 of those slices, and 2 handfuls of orange slices. Then I began to eat.
     It tasted so good, and I could tell, that Liam could tell that I was hungry, and didn't feel like speaking right now. Especially about the day I was having.
     In the middle of eating I suddenly remembered about Caleb and Vanessa. How did they get to school? Well how did Vanessa get to school? Caleb probably got a ride from his mystery friend. I pulled my phone out, and texted them in a group chat.

Breanna:
Hey guys. Sorry
About not
Picking you guys
Up. How did y'all
Get to school?

                                                   Vanessa:
                                  We got a ride from
                                   Caleb's friend.                  
                                   Your not going
                                   To believe who
                                    It is! But I'm
                                    Still mad about
                                    This morning!!
  
                                                          Caleb:
                                     Yeah! But
                                     Vanessa, don't
                                     Tell her. It's
                                      None of her
                                     Business. Or
                                     Yours, actually.

Breanna:
Okay. But I'm
Going to find
Out about
This friend.
I have to
Go. Me and
Liam are
Hanging out.

     I stopped texting after I sent that text. My phone kept getting notifications from the group chat, but I didn't care. I was hungry, and this is me and Liam's time.
"Is everything okay?" Liam asks me.
"Uh yeah, it's just that Caleb has a mystery friend, but he won't tell me. And now Vanessa knows about him too. I feel kind of left out, you know. Like we have been friends forever. We tell each other everything. That's how it's suppose to be. But it's not." I say, looking down at my sandwiches.
After I told Liam that, he looked a little, weird.
"Do you know who his mystery friend is?" I ask Liam.
     Liam takes a deep breath, then responds.
"Yes. I do know who the mystery friend is."
"WHAT! You don't even hang out with him! How would you know?" I say, a little angry, that Liam knew it, and I didn't.
     Liam didn't respond. He just stared at his plate. Like I didn't just ask him a question.
"ANSWER!" I yell at him.
"ME! I AM THE MYSTERY FRIEND!" He answers slamming his hands into the table, then getting up and leaving.
     I was shocked when he said that. Why would he be friends with a gay boy. I mean, there is nothing wrong with it, after all I am his best friend. But why would he hang out with Caleb, if all of his so called friends, don't like them. Gay people. I was so confused, and I didn't even know what to say, so I just got on my phone. I looked at the group chat, and Caleb and Vanessa we're talking about how Liam was his mystery friend. Then they started talking about how they were stupid because I was in the chat, and I could just see it. I got off of the app, and went to snap it. This app is basically like all the other apps that teens use. You can take pictures of your life, or funny memes, or what ever. Then you can get likes and have followers, and all of that good stuff. I currently have 7,000 followers. Well technically 7,568. But really who cares about all of that.
     I went to sit on the couch and stayed on the app for about 2 hours.
   2 hours later-from eating/2:30pm...
     I look down from my phone, and see Liam approaching the door.
"Where are you going?" I ask him.
"To go pick up Caleb, and Vanessa. Is there a problem?" He asks me.
"No." I say, looking back up at my phone.
