"Jennnaaaa, where's the Pop Tarts?"

I swiveled in my desk chair and yelled out my open bedroom door, "In the cupboard, Daniel! Second one to the left!" Moments later I heard the loud creek of the kitchen storage and Daniel's sheepish call of thanks. 

I turned back to my desk, where I had been previously scanning over my Twitter. 

allycat101: @xJennaBoBennax, are you dating Jai? Do you like Luke? 

InLoveWithYouuuu: @xJennaBoBennax, stay away from my Janoskians! #youbitch 

I sigh. There was many messages to me like the one "InLoveWithYouuuu" had sent. I typed a quick response to allycat101, so no speculation would continue. 

xJennaBoBennax: @allycat101, I am not dating Jai, and I love Luke as my bestie :D xxx 

I hit send, and pushed myself away from my MacBook. I'd been on Twitter long enough. 

The complete Janoskians were over at my house- my parents had flown to Mexico for the week, with some good friends of theirs. My older sister Amarie was out with her boyfriend Sam, so I had the whole place to myself..with five other Aussies. 

"Daniel, you better not of eaten all of the Poptarts!" I say loudly as I pound down the stairs.  

"Noooo, I haven't," Daniel answers in a less-than-innocent voice.  

"How's filming going?" I ask, stepping into the kitchen. Daniel is over by the island, eating what appears to be his fourth Poptart, with Luke beside him on a stool, on his laptop. Jai and Beau were brainstorming more video ideas, and James stood alone and leaning on the fridge, looking over his video camera.

"Wonderful," James says absent-mindley. Luke gives me a big smile as I pass him, and I return it with a shaky up-peak of my lips. It had only been a day since the five of us went to Diamond Beach. After the bonfire, all of us swam for a few hours before chilling at our camp spot again. An hour later there, we headed back home at around nineish. Jai and Luke seemed to be the same-old to me. A few times Jai had been flirting with me, and both of those times, Luke had interrupted.  

"It's gonna be great, Jenna Benna," Beau says brightly. He adjusts his snapback, grinning. "This one's going to be a major hit, we think."

"That so?" I say. "What's the title?"

"Awkward Restaurant Situations".

I smile. "Sounds fascinating."

"Oh, it is gonna be!" Daniel says, only his mouth is stuffed full of strawberry Poptart; so it comes out as Ohwf, it ish gwanna bwef

"We'll be hitting up different restaurants throughout the week," Jai says proudly.  

"Ahhh," I reply mildly. My mind is somewhere else. I'm so wrapped up about Jai and Luke, and how everything is so confusing. Jai almost kissed me yesterday. And Luke was quick to make sure we didn't, and he kept an eye on us after that. I mean, wouldn't that mean that Jai likes me if he did try to kiss me? And what the heck is up with Luke acting like my security guard? Like he wants to keep me all to himself? 

But most of all, I can't stop thinking about Violet. Right now, she's my main concern. Something is bothering her, and I need to help her out. She's always been there for me. It's time for me to be there for her, too. 

"Jenna?" Luke waves a hand in front of my face, and I blink. 

"Yeah?"

"You zoned out," Luke chuckles. I sigh. "Sorry. Just got a lot on my mind."
