A Story by umaimasawesome

Chapter 1

ISABELLE

So I’m a nerd… and I don’t give a damn. Like seriously… no one likes me and why should they? I wear plain shirts and baggy pants and no makeup and I like myself this way even though all the girls in my school even my juniors are prettier than me. My name is Isabelle by the way. So our school, like every other school is classified into groups; popular, middle class, nerds and geeks. I am obviously the nerdy one. It’s just that I don’t like staying with people, I like to stay with myself away from the crowd and this may seem weird but the most popular guy in school Kyle, I seriously don’t like him. All of the girls do but would you like someone so full of himself and someone proud? My mom doesn’t live with us .she lives in Africa, she works there. My dad stays with us and I have a younger brother, Mason. …… for starters our school is having prom and I have no interest in it. I hate prom. All the music and shiny dresses disgust me. Guess I can’t call myself a girl huh? But I don’t like it we have it every year though and all the cool and popular and rich girls always win. No one stands a chance against them so we guys don’t even try

KYLE

I hate my friends. They are so annoying sometimes I think I’ll kill them. We have these dares, us three Michael, Dave and me, we have turns and the other one can assign the other one ANYTHING, and if you say no to the dare you have at give a party at your house. This time it was my turn. My friends are FREAKING IDIOTS!!!! I got a dare to steal away a girls heart ( as quoted by dave)… at first I was like ok, ok I’ll do it no, big deal but at that time I simply didn’t know who the girl was and then they told me….. It was ISABELLE. She’s a freak! No one can like her seriously no one. I could not say no either because my parents will not let me have a party. I have absolutely zero percent chances. This will be harder than climbing Mount Everest. I have to do it anyway… why is my luck so bad? How am I supposed to do this she’s been here for eight years and I haven’t talked to her once. Not even ONCE. How will I explain everything? About why I’m doing this? I’ll talk to her right after break tomorrow.

Isabelle

Remember how I told you about Kyle? He just asked me if I would come would a movie with him. J.E.R.K. why does he think I will go? I refused right at the moment but he said no ‘no’s allowed’ but he said that we could meet up on my house. And so because he wasn’t listening, it was movies or my house and I of course I refused again but he didn’t listen and ran away before I could say anything.

THE NEXT DAY

That jerk came!!!even though I told him not to. And Know why he came to my house? To turn me into someone noticeable. WHY THE HECK IS HE INTERFERING IN MY LIFE? And I did stop him but he told me to try the look once and if I was not looking good he would stop irritating me. I would say no but I did look pretty impressive. Like seriously. With my glasses off. My baggy stuff off and the nice and simple dress of red colour and white polka dots on it. And those pretty little sandals. Trust me it was worth dying for. The thing I was more relieved about was that he would not irritate me anymore yoo-hoo!

Kyle

I had my sister take care of her. Speaking of which…. She hates me. She doesn’t like me one bit. I guess I would do the same if I was her. Guess I’ll have you figure out how to make her trust/like me. You know how I said that she was impossible to change and how she was pathetic? I’m having second thoughts….. When my sister made her come out of the room (even though she didn’t want me to see her I could hear her screaming about how she didn’t want to come out.) I don’t even know what to say…… i… she… she was cute I guess. Woah! Snap out it. My only purpose is to fulfil the dare nothing else….I hope…… Definitely only the dare…….

Step 2: gain her trust how am I supposed to do this? she is one of the hardest persons I have ever known. What is this mess ughhhh!

Isabelle

Apparently he wont stop irritating me…..ughh. like this morning he came to me and said “Why are you not wearing the dress I bought you?” why does he care? I took the dress from my locker slammed it against him and said “thanks but I don’t want your dresses im fine with mine” and I start to walk away but then he shouts “you look pathetic in that outfit” do I dress for him every day? I don’t get why hes just come to notice me out of the blue. Like seriously why? And so I answer “I don’t dress up for jerks like you everyday!” and I rush past the collidors everyone looking at me. I feel like im a joke right now. every one heard him. He follows behind me but fortunately he loses track of me. Im never talking to him again.

Kyle

I blew it. Why on earth could I just not shut my big mouth? She’s never talking to me again. And even if she does talk she will kill me. What will I do now? How will I fulfil the dare? I tried to chase after her but I don’t know where she went after that. I wonder if she is still crying. If she is then there is really bad news for me.

Turns out she was crying and she’s fiercer than she was before. I think she will kill me…. I passed her notes in class saying sorry she tore them. I went to her house she slammed the door on my face. I put flowers in her locker and she threw them in the dustbin. I asked the teacher to pair us up in our class activities, I think u know what I’m saying, she refused. I’m not her prince charming she should know that. I won’t be coming after her again and again. If only it wasn’t the bet.

ISABELLE

Maybe I should forgive him. i mean he has apologized a thousand times. Ill go to him right after school. I need answers. Why hes talking to me out of the blue now. Why hes bringing me dresses. He’s the most popular guy in school he can get other really pretty girls so why me? Why this friendship? My gut tells me something is wrong here, if it is I hope I know it before time. Im definitely getting my answers today.

Chapter 2

KYLE

She came to me today…after school accepting my apology and asking me questions. She said there was no reason of me seeing her if there was no reason of why I came all of the sudden and out of the blue. I sort of……. kind of… perhaps…u see…. I lied. I told her that i liked her…. So what? Its not like she will take it that seriously. right? A little lie doesn’t hurt anyone. I have to leave her later anyways so why should I care?

Isabelle

OH.MY.GOD!!!!!!!!!! I am about to explode! Actually I don’t know what to do. He just confessed he liked me….. I asked him “I accept your apology but why this? listen if you don’t have a solid reason this cannot go on.” But he just looked at me and went “what if I say I like you? Is that solid enough?” no one and by no one I mean NO ONE has ever said that to me!!! Im freaking out right now. Oh wait I just got a message…..FROM HIM…”wanna go out somewhere? Dinner maybe?” WHAT ON EARTH IS HAPPENING HERE!!!! IM SERIOUSLY GOING TO FAINT. A DATE!!!!! Wait…….. I DON’T HAVE ANYTHING TO WEAR!!!! Should I go? It will be fun right? Ill go. Before that I have to go shopping!!!! Someone SAVE me.

Kyle

So I told Dave about this and he said I had to take her on a date now. This is so annoying. I don’t even like her why should i? Anyways Im having second thoughts now what if she does come to like me? Will she be hurt? Ugly or not she has a heart. Nah! She won’t like me.

*************************************

Ok so we go to this fancy restaurant. I asked her if I should pick her up but she refused saying she had some work to do before coming. One thing is for sure if anyone sees me with her tonight, I will be the lamest guy on the planet. She comes about ten minutes after I reach the restaurant. And I don’t know what happens to me but something goes wrong. She is wearing a t-shirt, red colour hanging on one shoulder and off the other one and shorts of grey colour. Her hair is open and on her back. This may sound weird perhaps I’m weird maybe but she looks damn HOT. She actually looks pretty!!! And its her own choice. And I know I should have gone over together and make her come over here because she can’t seem to see me but I can’t stop staring. I seriously can’t. She spots me and waves to me I don’t even wave her back. Im staring, and staring, and staring……. Wait why am I doing this? I have seen so much better than her. I wonder why. could it be that I ...…. NO WAY. She walks over and she looks worried “are you okay? Maybe I should not have worn this. I’m embarrassing you right? Sorry I should go back” she is either crazy or is irritating me and without thinking I go like “ARE YOU INSANE! YOU LOOK AMAZING! I just could not believe it was you.” She’s blushing. I still can’t believe my eyes….or what I just said. The waiter comes over and asks us about what we want to eat. I ask her and she goes I don’t know. But then she gets up and takes my hand and goes “wait I know” and she just grabs me out of my seat and we run out of the restaurant and after five minutes we reach at a restaurant …. Pizza hut… “Wanna eat this?” she’s a totally different person. Not the nerdy person I knew. And the next thing I know we are eating pizza. We talk about our hobbies.

Isabelle

Nailed it! Believe it or not I actually looked amazing. I had his sister dress me though I asked her not to tell him. You know I would have killed him if he said I didn’t look good because I spent my precious two hours on shopping. I could have painted you know? But I think it was worth it. He was totally amazed! At first I thought he did not like what wore but he liked my look, very much. When I asked him if he did not like it he went screaming and all the people were looking at us. i feel like ill die because of this feeling. And then we had to decide for food but everything was too fancy. So I thought pizza would do. And we went for pizza. We talked about our likes and dislikes. He told me he loves to play football. I talked about art. It was amazing to talk about stuff. I actually feel comfortable around him now. I might start having interest in him now.

We were free around nine at night. And believe it or not but just when I went to bed I had around ten messages piled up in my phone. Guess who. Yes, yes it was the idiot who fell for me. And it sort of went like this:

Kyle: hey!

Kyle: what are you doing?

Kyle: can I come to your house now?

Kyle: I loved your outfit and by the way I know you took my sister with you

Kyle: you actually looked pretty awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Kyle: I loved that part when you took us out of the hotel running. Everyone was staring at us.

Kyle: pizza was a-amazing!

Kyle: maybe we should go to the art exhibition sometime or you could come and watch my game

Kyle: are you gonna answer me?

Kyle: hello?! I’m talking to you!!!!!

Kyle: answer me please!

I could stop laughing! I cannot believe he was messaging me all that time. And before he said anything else I replied:

Me: yes Kyle I’m here what do you want?

Kyle: what I want is to talk to you.

Me: don’t you have your friends to talk to?

Kyle: yes I do. But I want to talk to you.

Me: is it something serious?

Kyle: oh yes it is! I am going to die o..

Me: WHAT IN THE WORLD?

Kyle: I meant die because of boredom….. Why were you so tensed?

Me: BCUZ YOU TOLD ME THAT YOU WERE GOING TO DIE!!! ARE YOU INSANE? I NEARLY GOT A HEART ATTACK! Geez…..

Kyle: oh so someone does not want to let go of me eh? Is it perhaps that you are admitting you finally like me? J

Me: no! I do not like you. Idiot. Stop misunderstanding. Btw I’m going to sleep. See you tomorrow.

Kyle: wait don’t go there is something I want to tell you.

Me: what?

Kyle: I like youJ

Me: go to sleep! Good-BYE

Kyle: fine I’ll go to sleep. Bye

Ok maybe I do like him. But just a little bit. I wonder if I like him just as a friend though.

Kyle:

It is actually nice talking to her. I have never talked to a girl like this before. It’s like I’m free around her. It’s like I want to talk to her all the time. I NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM THIS GIRL! She is going to turn me into a person like her and I will lose all my popularity. Even though it’s nice talking to her like I was talking to her at night. But just so you know I wasn’t talking to her because I wanted to it was because I thought she would be feeling lonely as her friends weren’t replying to her message or something. She could have been wanting to talk to me. And waiting for me or something………and maybe I was a little eager too I guess.

So now my idiotic best friend Dave says I have to sit with her in break now. EVERDAY. She’s going to sit with us every day!! Sometimes I wish I had the opportunity to use my death wish before time. I would have used it for getting out of this situation. Anyways if she is going to sit with us she should be something more than a piece of trash. I have been going to a part time job for this useless junk. I know you must be wondering why I’m not using that money on the party, well you know the thing called ‘pride’ that’s my problem. Well, anyways I have enough money to buy her four to five dresses. I’m going to take her after school. I would say I don’t like spending time with her but I won’t lie. It’s actually nice talking to that so-called-girl.

After school

I asked her in break “We are going shopping after school” well actually I just told her. “And why is that? Moreover what makes you think I’m going to go with you?” she is so annoying. I’m actually tired of being all sweet now. “Because I’m asking you to go. I’m not going to eat you or anything so you are going to go with me. K bye.” And I ran away so that she doesn’t reply. Anyways so we went shopping and I, only this time, asked her what she wanted to wear. Believe it or not she actually has a nice taste. I spent all my time dealing with her. She first wore a dress. Sparkly dress. “Nice or not?” she asks. “Too funky. Try something else.” Another dress. “Nah! Next.” Another twenty minutes and then…. A silver shirt with a red shirt on top buttons unhooked, with a purple pant. She’s wearing a locket too. The shopkeeper helped her pick all the accessories. The necklace, the bracelet, the earrings… “How is she looking now sir?” to be honest she looks WOW but “Well ... Um...Yeah …nice …yeah… nice I guess yeah well whatever let’s get going we shouldn’t waste time here Isabelle let’s get going” and I go somewhere to take that stupid grin off my face. We shop late till night and gather like five to six dresses. With shoes, high heels, snickers. Whenever it was time to pay she wouldn’t let me pay. She like literally paid for everything. That seriously annoyed me because I started a part time job just for her. Err… I mean for my games and stuff. But still she should let me pay. I’m a guy you know. So we stop for dinner and her phone starts to ring. “Hello? Who is this? oh it’s you sorry I don’t want to talk to you right now . Ok fine what? WHAT?! No way!” and she slams the phone on the table. “What happened? Are you ok?!” “I �"”and the phone rings again. “WHAT ON EARTH IS YOUR PROBLEM!? Ok fine but just this once.” She hangs up and gets up from her seat “I’m sorry Kyle I have to go. Bye. See you in school tomorrow. Hopefully.” Wait what?! Hopefully? “Wait you aren’t going anywhere before telling me” I’m kind of worried now. “I can’t tell you. Just leave me alone.” She runs away. I run after her. Only that I’m hiding from her. She doesn’t know and she will kill me if she does. So we go to this underground station and it seems like she is waiting for someone. A guy approaches her after like five minutes. A GUY! She didn’t tell me about him which means she… LIKES HIM! “is it time now?!” NOW?! She’s been with him before. Isabelle is talking to the freaky guy with awesome hair. Maybe I should do my hair that way too. “Oh? That” He’s holding her arms now even though she doesn’t want him to and whispers something in her ear. She’s struggling. I shouldn’t help it’s there problem. Then a tear falls from her eyes. And she stops struggling and she’s numb now. I know somethings wrong here. I actually feel as I’m hurt, pain. I’m going CRAZY! Oh boy. Here it goes. I just wish the guy will stay alive. I go out of hiding and punch the guy in the face real hard. “DON’T YOU EVER TOUCH HER AGAIN. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER?! GET LOST AND NEVER COME NEAR HER AGAIN” the guys face is actually bleeding and I try to hit him again but Isabelle stops me “NO WHY ARE YOU HERE!” and he runs away. Isabelle’s tears are falling. “GO AWAY!!” she sobs “Why didn’t you tell me about this guy?” she doesn’t reply. “WHY DIDN’T YOU?!” I am literally screaming. “BECAUSE I WAS SCARED!” scared?! “Scared of what?” “That if I was weak and defenceless you would leave me! MY MOTHER DID THE SAME TO ME! I WAS SCARED YOU WOULD LEAVE!” her mother…. “So you don’t like that guy...?” “What?! NO! He was….. someone else..! Are you OUT OF YOUR MIND?!” whew! So she doesn’t like him but…SOMEONE ELSE! Which means that there is something wrong here. Not that I think anything of that. “Sorry about your mother though! And I’m not leaving you. NOT EVER. You’re not going to be alone. Not while I’m around.” I’m not leaving her now anymore… “Not ever?! That’s so thoughtful of you?” “What did he whisper in your ear?” now I’m serious and kind of worried “Why do you want to know? No seriously why? Why don’t you let it be?” “Well, for starters BECAUSE I FREAKING CARE ABOUT YOU AND WON’T SLEEP UNTIL YOU TELL ME ABOUT THIS FREAKY GUY WHO WAS WHISPERING IN YOUR EAR!” why is it so personal that she can’t tell me “ im sorry kyle I cant tell you” I’m basically angry. Filled with RAGE! “FINE THEN” “IM SORRY k? You know I saw you blushing after I changed into that dress” darn it! “I-I wasn’t blushing! It was just really hot there.” “You were in front of the air conditioner!” she laughs. “Well you should know I feel very hot. Anyways why wouldn’t you let me pay today?” “Because you shouldn’t waste money on me! ARE YOU AN IDIOT?!” “No I am not an idiot! I’m a guy. And you should let me pay.” “Shut up” ”Hey that’s not fair!” “Yeah yeah. Anyways im going home now so see ya at school!” “WAIT!” um I actually screamed for no reason here. “Yes?” WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?! IM PANICKING IM PANICKING!!!! Hey wait a minute. I never hesitate in talking to girls… so why….. “Its nothing” I am an idiot. Its like I want her to stay a little while longer “Ok fine I’ll stay a little longer” OMG IM TELLING YOU SHE’S SOME SUPERNATURAL PERSON! “I never asked you to stay, if that’s what you are implying!” “So you want me to go? Ok fine then. Bye.” “Wait that’s not what I mean. Stay a little while longer with me! Please! ” “Omg you are so easy to read” and the annoying person is laughing. AGAIN!

Isabelle

So today I went shopping with Kyle. I don’t know why though….. WAIT. WHY DID I GO?! Omg I don’t think when I’m with that idiot! Anyways I bought awesome dresses. And it’s just not me. IT WAS KYLE TOO. He actually liked my choice. And you won’t believe it but he BLUSHED! DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT I AM SAYING?!!! THAT FLIRT BLUSHED!!!! I have to calm down…. I have to calm down…. I have to calm down…… I CANT CALM DOWN!!!!!!! HE WAS BLUSHING!!! And this is just a part of what happened. There is a part time job I was attending so that I could come on the status of Kyle. I know he gets embarrassed when his friends see me with him. So I was trying to change myself. Unfortunately the only job I got in such a hurry was at a restaurant. A waitress. And it was like a small café. And the people there weren’t so….human. And the day I started there was this guy…. I asked his order and he was like “Hello there, sweetie.” And I was like what?! How in the world did he SAY THAT?! “EXCUSE ME? DO I KNOW YOU?” “I don’t know if you know me but I know your mother. Want to talk about it?” he knows about mom….. “Who are you and how do you know her?” “Not going to speak here. If you want I can talk about it when your free.” I have to know about her. My dad never tells me about her. I just know she left me when I was small. Since then I always thought that maybe I did something to make her leave. I wanted to apologize to her. I heard from dad that she loved to draw. I don’t know if it was because this or it’s just me but I love to draw since I was young. It’s always been a secret though. I draw really badly at school so that no one knows about it. I know it’s stupid but you know how everyone has a side they don’t want to show anyone? Yeah well mine’s an artist. Anyways… I wanted to know about her. But I’m keeping it a secret from father. “meet me in ten minutes, but this better be good” so after ten minutes it’s my break and I go to him. He’s outside the shop. “What is it that you want to tell me? Never mind that. I’ll ask. Is she alive? Why’d she leave me? ANSWER ME!?” I’m really anxious. “Woah hang in there. She is alive. And the part why she left you, you should ask her yourself. This Friday. I’ll call to tell the time.” “WAIT I CAN MEET MY MOM?!” “Well yes that’s what I think I’m saying.” I can meet my mom…. Fifteen years…. “BUT YOU CAN ABSOLUTELY NOT TELL ANYONE ELSE!” I scream at him. “K fine kid but just so you know we might be related” related?! “Are you in your senses or perhaps drunk?! Me and you? Related?! Yes I can totally picture that” stupid old man. He laughs and then goes away. So I decide not to tell anyone because I know they will just get angry and won’t let me meet her. I know my mom went because of me it would totally be my fault. Since I was small I’ve always had this dream that I want to go to Paris. Dad said I could go this year IF I get a scholarship and I have been working really hard. I might just get it. Anyways when I went to meet him. That idiot actually called when I was having dinner with Kyle. And I told Kyle I had to go somewhere and he should not come with me but let’s be honest he’s an idiot who I knew wouldn’t leave me like that. That kind of made me happy too. He actually cares about me. He ACTUALLY PUNCHED THE GUY IN THE FACE! IN HIS FACE!!!! Just because he whispered something in my ear. By the way it was nothing so serious he just told me that there was a guy watching me and I should calm down because he said I am going to meet mom after two weeks as she is on some business trip. Talk about betrayal, here I’m suffering from poverty and she is living such a nice life. So now the amazing point…. HE PUNCHED HIM IN THE FACE!!!! That was so dreamy. Kyle:

So now I’m really worried about her. I DON’T KNOW WHY! I couldn’t even sleep at night. And I’m in math class right now which is even more depressing. And you know what the most depressing thing about this is? I was all sleepy this morning and I went to dave and asked him why I was like this and dave’s like “Dude you are never like this. I mean yeah you like girls and stuff but this?! I mean you like sleep more than YOUR OWN FREAKING SELF!!” I know that’s true though. “Why do you suppose my precious sleep is running away from me?” “I think I know Kyle but I’m not sure if you will want to hear it.” And that could be?! There is nothing like I won’t want to hear. “ just spit it out idiot” “ you…..might be in love with isabelle….. please don’t scream at me. I have nothing to do with this!” “WHAT IN THE WHAT. ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND? ME IN LOVE WITH HER?!” I totally disagree with myself there is stuff I don’t want to hear and there is NO FREAKING WAY IM IN LOVE WITH THAT STUPID-ALWAYS-LAUGHING-AT-ME-LADY. “ I BY NO MEANS AM IN LOVE WITH HER! HAVE YOU LOOKED AT HER? HER LOOKS? HER STATUS? EVEN IF I DO LIKE HER HAVE YOU SEEN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN US THERE IS NO WAY ANYTHING IS HAPPENING BETWEEN US! GET IT!” “Um Kyle just remember that no matter what she has a heart and you might not want to break it, as I can see you have deeply drowned in the lake of love and you can’t come back it would be better that you get serious about this!” And I want to scream more but Isabelle is like “In love with whom?” like one problem was not enough for me. “Leave it alone isabelle just go away! You are the last person I want to see right now” I can’t believe I said that. “o…k Fine sorry” and she goes away but I hold her hand “What?” she says. “I’m sorry I’m stressed out because of DAVE!” I REALLY AM. “Why? What did he say?” “HE SAYS THAT I AM IN LOVE WITH-” oh my GOD! WHAT WAS I JUST ABOUT TO SAY! IF I TELL HER THAT SHE WILL REACT! “In love with whom? Is there someone you like?” “uh-no there was.. we were talking about birds. And yeah I sort of don’t like birds” I am so freaking bad at lying. “Are you sure she is not a girl you guys were talking about?” she’s good. “A-a-a-absolutely! Why would I talk like this if it was a girl?” I hope it works. “That is exactly what I am saying dave.” Says the most idiotic best friend on the planet. And isabelle walks away without saying a word. I guess she must be late for class. Though she always says something and we aren’t late for class today. Anyways so that isn’t the only thing im worried about. There is a university out of state my dad wants me to go there but I don’t want to go. I mean all my friends family, Isabelle, everyone is here. But dad doent understand…s

Kyle:

********************in school*******************

So its math class, and when the lesson has started I from the window in our class see that some guy is carrying Isabelle in his arms and she is unconscious. I’m shocked at two things one, Isabelle is unconscious and two, the guy who is carrying her, is E-D-W-A-R-D. The second popular guy in school. I stand up and say “I need to go Mr Matthews it’s very important” “what for? I can only let you go when I know the reason.” “I can’t tell you but please let me go” everyone is staring at me now and I know I have to come up with a reason because the teacher won’t let me go. “Sir he isn’t feeling well that’s why. He didn’t want you to know because he didn’t want you to worry” says Dave. “Is that true?” asks Matthews. I know he knows that it isn’t but he still lets me go. I rush to the nurse’s room and Isabelle is laying on the bed. Edward is besides her sitting on a chair and she is still unconscious. “What are you doing here? And what happened to her?! I am going crazy here. “more importantly what are you doing here?” he smirks. “I’m her friend and you are?” “Whoever I am doesn’t matter but you should probably go because I am taking care of her” “excuse me?! Who the hell are you to her? In case you do not know I am her best friend and you don’t have any right to take care of her” this guy is getting on my nerves. Who is he to get close to Isabelle? “Friend? You? You are only playing a game aren’t y-” isabelle wakes up and he shuts his mouth up. This.is.bad. if isabelle gets to know about this then she will leave me. She’s a great friend and I do not want her to leave me. “What happened to you isabelle? why were you unconscious? Whats wrong WILL YOU SPEAK UP?!” “ gosh why are you screaming? I’m okay I just didn’t sleep last night so I fainted in class but Edward was there for me so its okay you don’t need to worry. Anyways you have class right now right? So why on earth are you here?! Did something happen?” says isabelle “of course SOMETHING HAPPENED!! YOU FAINTED! My class is not important you are. And why didn’t you sleep last night?! And I WILL WORRY. Edward just became your friend and I am your best friend so don’t you dare say that Edward was there so I shouldn’t be there!!!!!!!” im screaming and im frustrated. EDWARD? Why him? Im there for her right? Im her best friend. “Whatever for now you should go because edward is here and you have class. Ill talk to you about this in break ok?” she is serious now. “Yeah whatever.” I go out because I know this is stupid but just when I go out Edward comes out and stops me, he has this stupid smile on his face. “ ah! Mr popular she doesn’t need you. She has me and by the way its only a bet right? So I can date her cause you are gonna leave her afterwards” I know this is a dare but can he? I don’t like this. I have to talk to dave about this. “ so what if it is a dare you leave her alone. She is none of your business.” “but you don’t like her. And I do. Oh I have to go she will be waiting don’t wanna leave her alone all. By. Herself. Sorry mr popular gotta go!” hes getting on my nerves. He runs away before my reply and I run to dave. Its break already so I will probably talk to her too.

Isabelle

I collapsed. I couldn’t sleep Last night I was painting. My painting resulted in lack of sleep and I collapsed in school. I was thinking about mom too. Speaking of which there is a guy called Edward in my class. And he is really nice to me. Like today when I was about to collapse and I had this dizzy feeling, he knew I was going to faint. People would have made fun of me if they saw me faint. So he took me outside and asked me if I wanted to go to the infirmary and I said no. but then I collapsed. And I had a little bit consciousness so I knew I was in his arms…. This is weird right? I mean a GUY carrying me?! Anyways I think he was just being nice to me. Isn’t he a nice friend? Anyways when I woke up kyle and Edward were talking about something. Though they stopped when I woke up. I have a feeling they were fighting because kyle was really angry. and by really I mean REALLY. He face was all red. I have to talk to him in break though. There is just a teensy bit of a problem. I already told Edward im going to have lunch with him. Listen I asked him how I could repay him and he said that he only wanted me to sit with him in break from now on. its not so bad now is it? Kyle wouldn’t mind. He would understand. He knows me. And besides he has dozens of friends he can sit with. Speaking of which Edward loves to draw too. That’s what we are going to do in break. Talk about art! Im so looking forward to break.

Kyle

I head straight to class. Dave’s talking to some girl. Again. I grab him when he’s still talking. “what the hell? What is your prob-” he’s so annoying at times. “ shut up!! Just listen to me. Something’s wrong. That Edward guy. Um… has in Isabelle’s class. He says he LIKES HER!!!” I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I think I know its just that isabelles my best friend. If that guy takes her away then…. . “ and? So what he likes her? What’s with you? Uh Kyle are you sure this is still just a dare?” “Well of course this IS JUST A DARE!” he is so stupid. Well I guess that’s why hes my best friend. “then WHY ARE YOU FREAKING OUT?” and he is mad. “Well I don’t know. Why do you think I came to you? Actually I think it’s because I think she’s a really good friend and I don’t wanna lose her” “ well if that’s the case then you should clear that up to isabelle and let her date Edward. If you keep on letting Isabelle assume you like her then her heart might break. And that is even worse than her dating Edward. Idiot. Now leave me alone and go talk to her” should I really listen to him? Tell her that I don’t like her? No I’m not telling her. “I’m not going to tell her. What about the dare? I don’t want to lose. ” I say “ fine then hurt her feelings. Now leave me alone! Do as you wish but don’t say I didn’t warn you” and he runs away to the girl he was talking to. I go and find Isabelle who is sitting with EDWARD. ALONE. TOGETHER. WHAT ON EARTH IS HAPPENING?! I go to isabelle and take her hand and take her to the corner of a room. “Why are you sitting with Edward?” I ask. “Um you see I have to repay him for what he did for me. So he asked me to sit with him. So please don’t say anything.” WHAT!? THAT B*****D. HE IS GONNA STEAL HER AWAY FROM ME. “NO! You don’t have to pay him back. Ill pay him back for you. Ask him how much money he needs.” I hope this works. “ I don’t need your money. And he’s not so cheap that he would need your money. I’m going to pay him back.” Ok this is getting annoying now. “ok fine then. So want to meet up after school? I can walk you home.” I know she will say yes but i still ask. “I already told Edward I would go with him. Sorry. But I will make it up to you.” AGAIN! WHATS WITH EDWARD. “You know what forget it. Don’t do anything just go eat with Edward. Actually you know what you should date him. Better than that GO MARRY HIM! And I run off because im an idiot.

Isabelle

Im really worried about kyle. He scolded me. He said I should date Edward. Ok one I don’t like Edward. And two I know kyle already likes me. And three Edward doesn’t like me. He is acting real strange.

Next day

I called him last night he didn’t answer me. I even texted him. Loads of time. He always replies to me. Something is wrong here. I don’t like this. at all. Kyles like my first friend ever. Im going to say no to edward today in school. Kyle is more important to me than him. I come to school and rush to find kyle. Only that he is with another girl. Hugging her. Kyles hugging her. I.. um… im sure there is a reason for this. maybe shes his cousin or better yet his sister. Yeah. RIGHT!!!! I run to kyle and try to ask him whats with the girl but he moves past me like im invisible. KYLES NOT NOTICING ME. I run to dave and ask him about this and he says “oh her? She’s Avery. Dave’s…. girlfriend” “GIRLFRIEND but didn’t he say he liked me?” if I don’t walk away soon tears are going to come down my face. “ I guess he doesn’t like you anymore. Sorry.” Tears have already started to come. i… am I that bad? I hate him. I HATE KYLE. Im running and running and I bump into Edward. Im so relieved because people started noticing me. Anyways I bump into Edward and he hugs me. Then we go to the ground and he buys me a drink. “so why are you crying? Everything ok?” he looks concerned about it and I think I should tell him. “I… Its Kyle… he doesn’t like me anymore I….” I can’t stop crying and im sobbing like an idiot. “Well if he doesn’t care about you anymore then you shouldn’t either.” He wipes my tears off. “But he’s the first friend I have ever had” and crying and crying and crying. “Kyles a jerk. Forget about him.” He says. I don’t know why but I get really furious. “For one he is not a JERK! And two I CANT BY ANY MEANS FORGET ABOUT HIM.” I scream. “But if you don’t forget about him it’s only painful for you. And he already likes someone else doesn’t he?” he is right though but I think I’m just going to talk to him once. “Yeah, but he told me he likes ME!! And besides he’s the only friend I have.” I’m tearing up again. “Ok one STOP CRYING and two I’m your friend too right? And the thing about him liking you…I don’t think that’s true….” Not true. What? “what does that mean?” “ forget that. So the thing about kyle liking you. Well.. I like you too so don’t care about him anymore. Plus he has a girlfriend. He’s trying to show you he doesn’t need you. Get it already!” LIKE ME?! EDWARD?! KYLE’S TELLING ME HE DOESN’T NEED ME? WHAT IN the world is happening with me?!
