** Lucy's POV **
Same routine this morning, make up stress in bathroom then strut my stuff to the field to wait for Phillip. After a bit of waiting, Phillip finally comes over to me. I do my usual "Hey babe!" to make him know he can't escape me but then he asks if I want to talk. I know what's coming but I can't let it happen. Father can't know. "Well, I think we'd be better...apart. I'm really sorry but I don't have feelings for you anymore" he said in a truly sorry voice. I honestly wanted to just accept it because I don't love him either. But we can't break up, father would kill me! He needs the vote from Mr.Hamilton in the next election or his dreams would be crushed!

"W-what do you mean!? But we're the cutest couple in school! W-we can't b-b-break up!" I pleaded but I knew that wasn't going to work. I need a new strategy. "Oh! It's a-a joke! You're joking! Nice j-joke Phillip!" I gave him a kiss then left. "Th-that's  not what I meant!" He shouted but I pretended not to hear it. Like, what was I meant to do? " Love ya babe! You're so cute ya know!" I left quickly so that he coudln't make a compromise with me. My 'BFFs' asked me what he talked to me about. I wasn't going to tell them! I'd be the laughing stock of the school! "Oh, we're going on the cutest date tonight to the... the lake! He's hiring a small boat to have a picnic on around the lake! It's gonna be so romantic!" I pretended.
