"Aaron!" Travis exclaimed as he ran up to his friend. Aaron stared down at the ground refusing to look Travis in the eyes. "She didn't show you anything, right?" He asked, hoping to get a no.

Travis and Aphmau were hanging out in a classroom, alone. Aphmau needed to talk to her Not Alone Buddy privately, about Aaron. She needed his advice for something. Although, someone was following them and listening to their conversation. Travis was going to hug Aphmau but accidentally tripped and fell on top of Aphmau, this was a great opportunity for the person to take a picture of them and show Aaron.

"Look! Something happened. Me and Aphmau-"

"You really think I'm that stupid?" Aaron cut him off. Travis was on the verge of tears. Then Aaron finally looked up and started laughing. "I'm not stupid to fall for that. I know how much you love Katelyn and you know how much I love Aphmau. You would never cheat on Katelyn," Aaron states. Travis gave a weak smile. "Besides, I think I have a plan to get rid of Lily."

"Aaron!~" Lily sang as she clinged onto Aaron's arm. He looked slightly annoyed.

She spots Aphmau in the corner of her eye. She was holding a small white gift bag with rainbow polka dots on them, along with white tissue paper tucked inside.

Lily smirked, Aphmau took notice of this. "Aaron~ Can we go hang out after school?~ Please.~" Aphmau was slightly shaking. She was jealous that she wanted to cry.

Aaron spots Aphmau in the corner of his eye, she was looking down while holding a gift bag. He turns his head to her direction. She was shaking. Something fell from her face. He realized they were tears.

His eyes widen as he realized that she was crying. He wanted to run over to her and embrace her but she runs away with the gift bag in her hands.

'Aphie...'

For the past 2 weeks, Lily was getting all flirty with Aaron, purposely making Aphmau jealous. This brought Aphmau down. She didn't feel so confident anymore.

She still had the gift bag in her locker. She been wanting to give it to Aaron but Lily kept getting in the way. So she gave up.

It's been pretty hard for Aphmau ever since Garroth's death. She even believed that Laurence was the one who killed him. Garroth's dismembered body was in a black trash bag and stuffed into Laurence's locker.

Even though she still has some of her friends, she was still scared. What if Aaron was next? She would surely go into depression.

It was slightly dark in the music room. She was curled up into a ball. Her knees were up to her face with her arms hugging them, her face buried in them, her back against the wall, tear stains on her cheeks.

She hears the door open.

Footsteps approach her.

In the corner of her eye, she sees someone sitting down next to her.

"You ok?" A familiar voice spoke. She shakes her head. "What's wrong?" She looks up to see Aaron looking the other way. She starts blushing.

"N-nothing." She answers shyly. Aaron looks at her, his cheeks being slightly red.

In a calming voice, he says, "It's Lily, isn't it?" Aphmau stays quiet. She didn't want him to know. She was already embarrassed.

Aaron rubs his neck nervously, "Can you look at me?" She shakes her head. A hand touches her arm. "Please?" Aaron said softly. She refused, so Aaron decided to move her arms away from her.
