Danny's POV

I don't understand, whenever Jay is around me Ronnie is furious and vise versa. I'm just a little confused. Anyways, I was sitting on a bench in the courtyard at school. I was waiting on my friends to join since none of them were here yet. I looked up and saw Jorel walking towards me with a smile. I smiled back as I stood. Once he was next to me he grabbed my hands. "Hey what you doing all alone?" He asked as he cupped my face. I giggled as he poked my nose. He gave me a soft smile before leaning in close. I soon realized he was wanting a kiss. I blushed and leaned closer myself, that was, until Ronnie pushed Jorel away from me. "Get the fuck away from him!" he snarled and I noticed him glaring at him. Jay glared back and went to take a swing before Jordan and George walked up and stopped him. "Okay okay no fighting you bitches" Jordan said, pulling Jorel away. He said something to him having Jay roll his eyes before walking away. I felt sad to say the least, I didn't want him to leave but oh well. Ronnie looked at me with a slight smile. "Sorry about that, I don't trust him" he said in his defense. I nodded looking for Jorel as thye started a conversation about God knows what. I found him with his own group of friends, he looked pissed but I couldn't do anything about it.

I heard the bell signaling for us to head inside for class. I walked in the building accidently bumping into someone. I looked over and saw one of Jay's friends with a slightly annoyed expression. I walked over to him with a small smile. "Hey I'm sorry for bumping into you, I didn't mean to" I said, earning a shrug and a smile in return. "No worries, you're not the reason I'm annoyed so" he said, looking forward. His name is Matthew by the way. Matthew Sanders. He's in my final class along with Jay and a couple more of his friends and also Matty and Ronnie. I ended up walking to my first class with Matt. "So what or who annoyed you?" I asked, not really expecting an answer. He looked at me, "This girl named Kenzie, she keeps fucking with my girlfriend Val" he said, glaring at the floor. I nodded, "Sorry to hear that" I said, patting his shoulder. "I just wish she'd put that bitch in her place, she fucking deserves it" he said, I nodded. "True" I made it to my class and waved goodbye to Matt with a smile. He waved back with a smile of his own. I sat down in my usual spot in the very back. I was waiting on my friend Nate since he said he would sit with me to talk about our project if we're not doing anything today which from how it looks, we're not. I smiled when Jorel walked in with Jordan behind him. Jordan walked over and sat down with Jorel beside him. Both being at my table. Jay in front of me and Jordan beside him. I frowned once everyone enter the class and took their seats, everyone but Nate. I noticed Cody sit down with a sad look on his face. I guess Nate isn't here today.

I sighed until I heard footsteps at the doorway. I looked up and there he was. He looked hurt, like painfully hurt. Is that why Cody looked upset? Nate walked over and sat beside me. He gave a small smile but I could tell it was fake. I turned to him. "What's wrong?" I asked, putting a hand on his shoulder. He just shook his head. "Don't worry about it, I'm fine I promise" he smiled, I furrowed my brows at him. "Nathan tell me" I demanded, causing the other two to stare. "Fine, okay. I asked out Cody but he never responded, he only gave me a look of confusion and sadness" he said, looking down. My eyes widened. "I'm sorry" I said, hugging him as best as I could since we were in chairs almost a foot away. I heard him sniffle before hugging back. "It's fine, I guess it's not meant to be" he said, running a hand through his floppy and puffy hair. I frowned at him with a slight glare. "Don't give up, he never said no, and I know he didn't say yes either but just give him time, he's probably just thinking it over" I reassured him, he nodded with a tiny smile. "I hope you're right, thanks Danny" he looked at me with a soft smile. I smiled back. "Anytime"

I looked back at the other two boys to see them with staring at us. "what?" I said, my face heating up from the sudden attention. Jorel smiled. "That was so sweet Danny" he said, resting his hand on mine. I blushed more, hell I'm pretty sure I look like a fucking tomato right now. "haha thanks" I said, nervously. Jordan smiled at us, seeing our hands. I quickly pulled my hand away with nervous laugh. Jorel chuckled. "What't the matter?" he asked, smirking. I shook my head. "Nothing I'm fine" I said, looking down trying to hide my now red face. I saw from the corner of my eye, Cody staring at Nate. I smiled and nudged Nate and nodded towards Cody once he looked at me. He looked at him before looking back at me with a shy expression. I smiled sympathetically to my friend. "Go get him" was all I said before Nate took a deep breath and stood. He went over to Cody and sat in front of him. He was only sitting with Maxx and Austin. And now Nate but anyawys. He was talking to him and I saw them smile at one another which made me smile. I think I make a good cupid. I turned back to Jorel who was writing something on a piece of notebook paper before sliding it over to Jordan. The fuck are they doing? "God damn you dude" Jordan mumbled sliding it back over. I rose a brow, curioys as to what in the actual fuck they were doing. They noticed my gaze and shown me the paper. These dumbasses are playing tic-tac-toe. "Why are y'all playing that?" I laughed. "Why not? You're too focused on thier relationship so what are we supposed to do?" Jorel asked, starting a new game. I shrugged. "I dunno maybe talk to each other? You don't need me to make conversation ya know" I said, thumping his hand gently. He looked up at me with a fake look of shock. "You hit me, how dare you sir" he fake gasped, laughing afterwards.

I saw a few girls look at Jay with a look of concern. I guess they heard him say that but clearly did not hear his laugh. I rolled my eyes once they came over to check on him. "Oh my god are you okay? Don't hurt him fag!" one girl spat, glaring at me. "You don't even look cute in those clothes, you look stupid and ugly" another said. I felt tears form. "Hey leave him alone! Get the fuck away from me and leave us be" Jay snapped, jerking his arm away. They scoffed then went back to their seats. I looked at Jorel with sad look. "Why did you defend me? They're right. I can't wear these anymore, I do look stupid" I cried, standing and running out the class hearing Jorel call for me and the teacher ask what's wrong. I ignore everyone as I ran to the boys' restroom. I hid in one of the stalls and locked it. A few minutes passed and there were footsteps. They knocked on the door I was in but I stayed silent, hoping whoever it was would go away. "Danny I know you're in there it's the only one that's closed" I heard Nate say. I stood and unlocked the door before walking out the stall. I looked at Nate with tears going down my cheeks. "What happened?" he asked, after hugging me then pulling aeay. I looked down. Some girls said I looked ugly and stupid like this, and I agree" I said, staring blankly at the floor. "No you don't dude, fuck those girls, they can go jump off a damn bridge for all I fucking care. You look amazing, don't let anyone else tell you otherwise, got it?" he said, ruffling my hair. I smiled and nodded, wiping away my tears with my sleeve. We went back to class and the teacher asked me if everything was okay. I nodded and headed back to my seat. Nate sitting beside me once again, but this time he moved his seat closer and held me.

I rested my head on his shoulder as a few more tears fell. "Hey, I know something that may make you cheer up a bit" Nate said, softly. I looked up at him. "What?: I asked. "I asked him out again and he said yes" he said, smiling. I pulled away with a big smile. "Really? Oh my god I'm so happy for you" I squealed. I was so excited for him, he finally got the boy he had a crush on for months now. I felt proud of him for finding to courage to ask him out in the first place. Just then the bell rang for second and I frowned. "Awww I wanna keep talking to you" I said, looking at Nathan. He chuckled. "You act like I won't sit with your lil group at lunch, keep in mind I'm with Cody now and I know he sits with you" he said, rubbing my shoulder. I smiled."Oh yeah, right" I said, causing him to laugh. I stood and walked out with Nate and Cody who were holding hands. Awww how cute.

It was now seventh and Jorel and Ronnie would not stop glaring at each other no matter what. I decided I'd sit with Matt, ya know, the one I bumped into this morning. He smiled once he saw me and welcomed me at his table. a girl and another guy were sitting here too. "Danny this is Valerie and Brian, Guys this is Danny" Matt introuced. "Valerie is my girlfriend and Brian is my best friend" he added. "Sup Danny, so you're the one who bumped into ole Matt this morning huh?" Brian asked, I nodded feeling my cheeks heat up from embarrassment. "Hey let up on him" Valerie said, smiling at me. "I heard you're buddies with Jorel, and any friend of his is a friend of ours" she said, I smiled. "Really? Cool" I chirped. They smiled at me before I heard a loud thump and some kids shouting. I looked up and saw Jorel and Ronnie at each others throats. I sighed, grrrreaaaat. Just what we need right now. I stood and went to break them up but I ended up being shoved by one of the girls from earlier. "Let them be shithead" she snarled. I glared at her. She turned and walked away. I rolled my eyes. I went to stop them again but stopped hearing a smack. Jay slapped Ronnie across the face. I was pulled away by Matty. Just then the teacher walked in and made everyone sit down except the two dumbasses who decided to fight at school. "Principal's office, now" was all he said. Jay and Ronnie walked out. Jorel looked at me and gave a heartwarming smile while Ronnie just glared at him.

Why do they hate each other so much?
