**Amira's P.O.V.**

"Adam, pay attention," I whisper.

"But I'm bored Amira," he whines.

I roll my eyes at him. He pouts, before finally falling silent and paying attention to the teacher.

We've gotten extremely close over the past few days. He told me a lot about himself, from things like his favorite color to family stories. He knew what had happened to me two years ago. He had found out from the other kids and after he asked me about it I finally told someone the truth. Mazin surprisingly hadn't tried to talk to me and, although I should be happy, I couldn't help but feel slightly empty. But it was probably due to the fact that I was used to his constant insults. It was nothing more than that.

I had however seen him in the hallways sometimes and he always looked sad and I didn't know why. His eyes had bags underneath them as if he hadn't gotten sleep in days, his hair was always messy, and he always had a frown on his face. Although I shouldn't care, I couldn't help but feel sympathy for him. He was obviously going through something right now. A couple times I had seen him glancing my way with an intense look in his eyes, but whenever I made eye contact with him he would lightly blush and look away.

"Amira pay attention," Adam mocks.

I roll my eyes, but turn to face the teacher and pay attention. Pretty soon class comes to and end and I pick up my stuff. Adam patiently waits for me as I pack my things up. I'm about to leave the classroom when I see Mazin walk in front of me with a girl named Brianna. I don't know why, but I feel like ripping her arm off his. I've never felt like this before so I don't know what it is.

It's jealousy.

What? Jealousy? I can't be jealous. That would require me to actually like him. And I most definitely don't like Mazin. I shake my head ridding myself of these weird thoughts before picking my things up and following Adam out the door. I silently walk to my class with him talking my ear off. It seems like he just can't shut up. I don't mind because I'm trying not to focus on the thought inside my head.

"Amira are you even listening to me?"

"S-sorry I just have a lot on my mind," I reply with a blush.

"Is that something on your mind me?" He says with a wiggle of his eyebrows.

I blush before rolling my eyes and choosing not to answer because he will most likely turn whatever I say into favoring him. He just laughs as we make our way to our next class together. I look over to see Mazin yelling at Brianna at his locker. I try to make out what they're talking about, but I can't hear them clearly. Mazin and suddenly makes eye contact with me, looking at me with desperation in his eyes. I swallow nervously, unable to look away.

What the hell is going on with me?

**Mazin's P.O.V.**

I haven't talk to Amira for the past couple of days. I'll admit I'm a little scared. The last time I tried apologizing she went off on me! I understand that she's still a little afraid of me, but I'm really trying to earn her forgiveness. I don't know what more I can do. Anything she asks I'll do it. But how can I do that when she's not even speaking to me. It's just really hard. I don't know what to do anymore. But I still don't want to give up. I've been taught to never give up no matter what.

As I'm walking to my locker with a girl from my class comes up to me. I think her name is Brianna. She grabs my arm for some weird reason and just smiles at me creepily.

"Um can I help you?" I ask confused.

"You know I've never really noticed how cute you are. Maybe you and I could go out sometime?"

I look at her in confusion. Since when has she ever wanted to go on a date with me?

"Um no thanks," I reply politely.

"Excuse me. I don't think you know who I am. I'm to head cheerleader at this school. Nobody rejects me and I mean nobody!"

"Well looks like I just did," I reply rudely.

She scoffs, clenching her fists in frustration.

"You're too busy checking out that whale Amira," she snorts, "Why would she ever give you the time of day. You were one of her biggest bullies. Besides she's ugly I don't see what you see in her anyways. You're not that bad looking! You're actually pretty cute you deserve to be with someone who looks good, like me. I can make you happy. And I'm way better looking than that hideous whale."

"I know what I did to her you don't have to remind me! And I may never get to be with her, but I would rather spend my time crushing on someone that doesn't give me the time of day then to be with someone as shallow as you," I sneer with disgust.

I look up and find Amira looking at me. My heart rate quickens, loudly beating inside my chest as she stares on. I try not to notice the fact that she's with Adam, I don't want it to be obvious how I'm jealous of him.

"She's over there with Adam instead of you. She doesn't want anything to do with you. Instead of wasting your time thinking about some whale that doesn't give you the time of day, you should go out with girls that are in your league. Because her? You're way out of her league. So let her be happy with the new kid and find yourself a girl who is actually pretty," she says before strutting off.

I sigh as I see Adam walk off with Amira to their next class.

But I don't want another girl. All I want is Amira.
