"Go talk to her. You can't come here and not talk to her at all" I said to my best friend Slade, trying to get him to spend more time with his crush than me.

"Hmmmmm........." he started nonchalantly, tugging my cheeks playfully as I slap his hands off "..Fine. I'll talk to her before I leave. Happy now Cille?"
I nodded hitting his hand that was returning to my cheek;hoping he would actually keep to his word this time around

And did he talk to her as he promised?

Huh,you bet he didn't;rather placing a peck on my head before leaving my class without a single word
to her. Without looking at her, I felt her eyes burning holes through me and couldn't help but let out a sigh of resignation and fatigue. This wasn't going to calm the rumors that have been going on since forever about Slade and I and he wasn't exactly helping matters with his actions.

How was I supposed to make people believe we weren't dating when he blatantly ignored his crush for me?
