I woke up to another annoying alarm, honestly not wanting to get up. As the memories from yesterday started coming back, I was so confused. I didn't even know how I ended up in my room after last night! A lot of questions started forming in my head, and I wanted answers. I grabbed my phone off of my night stand and looked at the notifications.

Ariel :
- Are you excited for tomorrow?

- I'm bored.

- Come on, its 5 am. Get up!

- I miss you.

- Someone else misses you too!

I couldn't help but smile at my best friend spamming me. I decided to finally get up and get the day over with. I sat up and let my feet touch the hard wood floor, then made my way to the bathroom. I hopped in the shower and did my business. Once I was done, I headed over to my closet and picked an outfit out. I grabbed a black t- shirt, blue jeans, and black boots with white socks. After I got dressed, I blow dried my hair. I ended up curling it again and of course doing my makeup. I looked one last time in the mirror before leaving and I was pretty satisfied on how I looked, so I headed downstairs.

The house was a little too quiet, but I ignored it and kept walking down the stairs. I walked through the double doors of the kitchen, when I noticed a note was left on the refridgerator. The note read:

"Love you, have fun at school!"
- Mom and Dad

How can anyone have fun at school? But I mean, it's whatever.

I crumbled up the paper and grabbed an apple off the counter. As I started munching down on my delicious apple, I heard foot steps. I don't remember anyone being home, so what's the first thing anyone would do? Grab a knife of course! I have to protect my self, ya know. As the double doors swung open, I took a deep breath preparing myself. A petite blonde walks in and screams.

"Ahhh!! What the hell is wrong with you?" The blonde yells, pointing to the knife in my hands.

"What the hell are you doing in my house?" I asked angrily.

"I'm here with Max!"

"I should have known" I murmur to myself, as I put the knife back in the container thing and finish my perfectly good apple.

Max finally comes down and tries to play it off.

"So I see you two have met. Mariah, this is Taylor. Taylor, this is Mariah."

"I don't have time for this" I say, grabbing my car keys and walking out the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~ School ~~~~~~~~~~~

I park my car and take in a deep breath, getting reading for school. I grab my book bag out of the passenger's seat and set it on my lap, putting my phone in my bag. I made my way through the school looking around for my friends. I was approaching my locker, expecting to at least see them there, but I had no luck. I was a little disappointed that my friends were nowhere to be found, so I grabbed my phone and called Ariel. As I was dialing her number, someone tapped me on the shoulder. I quickly turned around and faced the same same striking blue eyes I've seen before. I can't help but smile back as he smiles at me, too.

"Hey Mariah."

"Hey Andrew. Umm, have you seen your sister?"

I stared at him, waiting for an answer, but it was almost like he was having a conversation with himself. After awhile, he finally responds.

"Oh! She is, umm.. well.. she's busy at the moment" Andrew said nervously.

"Busy?"

I shook it off as the bell for first period rang. I start walking to my class, still not understanding what she would be so busy with. Then it dawned on me. She'd be busy with her party, of course! I get so paranoid for nothing. Why couldn't Andrew just say that?

I walk in to AP Human Science, and guess what. I see Chase! To say the least, I was actually happy to see him! I was so worried about Ariel, that I didn't even think about my other friends. A side of me felt bad, so I planned on making it up to them once I had seen all of them. I sat next to Chase and a cheesy grin appeared on his face. I shook my head and sat down next to him waiting for class to start.

We chatted for a bit, catching up on what's been going on, when I notice Andrew walk in. How in the world could I have not noticed him in my class? I gave him a slight wave and continued my conversation with Chase. Chase looked back and said:

"Who's that?"

"He's Ariel's brother" I said.

"Then why does he keep looking at my girlfriend? " he smirks.

I chuckled at his response and said
"I'm not your girlfriend."

Andrew fake pouts, saying
"That hurt babe, that hurt."

"I'm sorry" I say, while grabbing his face in between my hands.

He smiled at me, then the bell rang for class to start. I got out my notebook and pencil, and started writing down notes. I felt someone staring at me, so I slightly looked where Chase was. He was doing his work, so I knew it wasn't him. I looked to the left, and I find Andrew staring at me. Believe me, he looked pissed. Why? I didn't know. Chase noticed me looking around, and then I seen him realize how mad Andrew looked. By the look on Chase's face, I knew he was going to start something. Before I could do or say anything, Chase kissed me on the cheek. His kiss caused me to blush and I gave him my undivided attention.

"What was that for?!" I whisper yelled.

"Because you're mine, and no one can look at you unless it's me" he said, ever so easily.

I couldn't help but turn even more red after he said that. That moment didn't last long though, because as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Andrew quickly got out of his chair and made a mad dash for Chase. Everything happened so quickly and I got caught in the middle of it. Chase quickly grabbed me by the waist and put me behind him in a protective stance. The boys were chest to chest, getting ready for each other's swing. The teacher noticed what was happening and quickly came over, pushing the two boys away from each other.

"What's the problem, boys?"

"Noting, Sir. Andrew started it! I'm just protecting my girlfriend" Chase said, looking Andrew dead in the eyes.

Andrew really didn't like that, so he threw the first punch. Chase threw me back and Krystal caught me.

"Krystal, why are you here? " I said, being glad to see her.

"For you! Let the boys finish it out. I'm taking you with me!" she said smiling.

"But they are going to hurt them selves!" I shouted.

"They are a lot tougher than you think, Mariah. Let's go!" she said, pulling me with her.

"No, I have to bring Chase!" I said stopping her.

"Why?"

"Because! He's my boyfriend and I don't want him hurt!" I said, hoping she would let go.

I think Andrew heard me, so he began swinging harder, knocking Chase to the ground. Panicked, I got out of Krystal's hold and ran toward the two boys.

"Noo!" Krystal yelled, as I tried to cover my body over Chase's.

Andrew had gone for another swing, but stopped when he saw me. We made eye contact and then I stood up.

"Calm down" I said, while taking Andrew's hand into mine.

I had felt the same sparks, just like the last time we touched. As much as I didn't want to let his hand go, I had to. I turned away from Andrew and focused my attention on Chase, grabbing his hands and helping him up. I looked around the room, only to see everyone standing up and whispering. Chase wrapped his arm around my waist, and we began heading walking together. Just as we were almost out of the classroom door, I looked back and received the most heartbreaking look from Andrew.
