Asher's P.O.V.

Ok, so yesterday was just perfect!!! One, I have a possible record deal to full fill with my amazing girlfriend, two, Taylah really opened up to me, and three, I had an amazing kiss with Taylah!!!! It was just, an amazing day! You may think now, that my whole life is based around Taylah, but it's not!! I mean, I have a great group of ten mates; Luke, Ben, Jake, Tom, Harry, Chris, Dylan, Austin, Daniel and Mason. My best mate is Dylan though; we're great friends and have known each other since we started year seven!

I'm at home at the moment. I'm in my room, sitting on my bed contemplating whether to phone Taylah and ask her if she wants to go out somewhere. In the end I just think to myself: grow some balls man! Ring her! So I do as my thoughts tell me and ring up my girlfriend. It only takes a couple of rings to cut through to her end.

"Hey babe," I say, soothingly.

"U-uh, hey? What's up Ash?" She stutters. Aahhhh I love it when she shortens my name!

"Well I was just thinking... um... could you... uh... meet me at the park in fifteen minutes please?" I ask, hopefully.

"Uh... I guess. Why babe?" Why does there always have to be a why?!?!

"Just because, now get ready! Don't get too dressed up, there's no point! No buts, just do it!" I explain.

"Ok, ok, fine!" She sounds quite mad, but she won't be when she realises what I've set up for her there! I then hang up the phone and change out of my p.j's. I then brush my teeth and jell my hair up into its usual quiff.

Taylah's P.O.V.

I haven't had any texts or notes e.t.c. from F in ages and neither have the girls! I'm really not complaining though, I'd rather F didn't exist; my life would be so much less complicated! It's just all too much for any of us to handle! I can't tell Asher either, as much as I want to, I can't! It would put him in danger, and anyone he would tell! I'm basically trying to stop him from seeing any texts or whatever, I don't want him to get suspicious and then start asking me about it! I just wouldn't be able to take it, so I'd tell him, then the same thing would happen to him that happened to Naomi. We have no idea what F is capable of!

I'm annoyed! I wanted to have a lazy day today! I didn't want to go on a date, I wanted to simply stay at home, watch a movie, eat ice cream and stay in my p.j's all day! But no, I have to go on some stupid date in the park!

I arrive at the park at 12:00, as Asher told me to, but there's no-one there! What a surprise! The player stood me up! It's just a few trees, the slide, the swings and a see-saw! B-O-R-I-N-G!!! But then, to my surprise - might I add, a load of people jump out from behind the trees, slide, swings and see-saw!! Along with Asher! Except he didn't just stand there yelling surprise, he came up to me and kissed me! Wait, what? The school's hot bad boy can have feelings?!?! This is new!

"Why?" I ask him, disapprovingly.

"What?! I do all this for you and all I get is why?" He exclaims, almost angrily.

"Well, I just wanted to know why you threw the party! I love parties, but not really when they're for me!" I explain, annoyance seeping through me trying to sound nice.

"It's for our record deal thing!" He begins, pointing to the sign that explains it "You should be more positive!"

"Yeah, but that isn't even definite yet, is it?" I remind him.

"Well yeah, but that doesn't matter! Can't you at least try to enjoy the party, babe?" He pleads, giving me puppy dog eyes.

"Fine!" I say, giving in, as he fist pumps the air. "But, I barely even know any of these people! I may be the most popular girl in school and all, but I don't know every bloody person in this world! You didn't think about who I'm friends with!"
