Third person POV

Jesse leaned in closer, but so did Riley. Is this really happening? He thought. He smells so good, like coconut, no like cherries, no like both. Their lips were centimeters apart when Jesse's phone rang. He groaned looking down at his phone and ran away from the blushing girl.

Jesse POV

It was Adam, "Hey dude, what's going on. You have that look on your face, like when you got that D on your Calculus test."

"Nothing's wrong, you just called at a bad time." Jesse retorted.

"Oh really, and what was Mr. Special doing."

"Taking a jog, I ran into a cute girl, and we were about to... you know" Jesse didn't even dare say the name of his best friend's girlfriend. Adam still flirted with a lot of girls, so it was natural for her to feel left out.

"You were about to KISS A GIRL, who?"

"Um, I don't know her name." I was an awful lier before Adam started dating Riley, but I've grown used to it by now.

"You dog gotta go practice is starting." He hung up the phone. This was going to be a long day.

Riley POV

What was I thinking? Charlie and Rory, they would know. I picked up my phone and called Charlie's cell, they were always together.

"Hey, girl hey."

"Hi Riley, what's up?" Rory's voice was always so monotone, not a care in the world.

"Um.. you know Jesse?"

"That red-head guy that you were major crushing on and still are even though you're dating the captain of the basketball team, and speaking of basketball weren't you just heading off to practice?"

"Oh, that's right. See you later Riley." I waited till I heard the door close and I let everything out.

"Well I was sitting on the sidewalk and Jesse comes running up the street. He offered me his hand, I took it, he pulled me to my feet. Our faces were close, he started to lean in, so I did to, and then his phone rang. He ran as fast as he could away from me after looking at his phone, I think it was Adam. What if he told him?"

"Wait, so let me get this straight, the guy you like almost kissed you and he pulled away because his phone rang and it was Adam. Now you think he's gonna tell Adam that you two almost kissed because he's a loyal friend."

"Yes, what do I do. Should I tell him that I didn't mean to lean in, or should I tell him that I didn't lean in he was leaning in not me."

"The second one it sounds more convincing, but if he doesn't ask don't tell."

"Got it, also gotta go, he's back."

"Good luck."

"Hey, um you didn't tell Adam did you?" I asked.

"No, why would I? he would hate me." He eyed me suspiciously. "I always liked you before people noticed how amazing you are." He said leaning in.

"I can't be with you, not until Adam cheats on me. I know he will, in fact, he has been, with one of the cheerleaders. That's what Charlie said..." He cut me off, his hand was behind my head and his lips were against mine. My eyes were wide, he was better than Adam. I closed my eyes and went with it. I was gonna have some explaining to do after this, and I was gonna have to tell Adam that I know that he has been cheating on me.

Charlie POV

That girl, I'm gonna have some trouble with her. She likes Jesse, but she's loyal to Adam. I picked up my phone and called Rory.

"You've got Rory." I laughed at his playful pickup line.

"Hey, what's Adam doing right now?" He looked over and since we were in a face chat I could see his upper lip curling up in disgust.

"Talking to the co-captain of the cheerleaders."

"Bethany! Take five girls, and go find Bethany and bring her back here! Now!"

The girls took off running. "They're in the gym."

"Bethany, Charlie wants to see you right away. She said it's urgent." Then the girls walked into the other room and walked through the doors to our practice space.

"Call you after I'm done." He gave me a curt nod. "Girls leave us to talk alone." They nodded and ran out of the room.

"What's up cap." She shook a little.

"I want you to do a simple task, don't talk and hear me through." She nodded her head vigorously. "Ask Adam out, and if he says he's with Riley tell him that I have dirt on him that will banish him to Hell. If he says he doesn't care to tell him that Riley knows about his after school activities and that I don't mean basketball. Got it." She nodded and walked out of the room. I picked up my phone and called Rory. This was gonna be good.
