Nova and Chelsea sat together on the floor and looked at the television screen. They were watching a romance movie and in the end, the protagonist's brother died in place of her, and she lived happily ever after with her boyfriend.
"What a stupid movie. How can that bitch be so happy after her brother died?" Chelsea said.
"Because people learn how to move on," Nova said.

"But that doesn't happens so easily. It takes years and years, to just accept the fact that they will never be there again. They potrayed it so easily. What about the boy who killed her brother? He had a mask on, she didn't even try to find him—...Am I not the same?"
'Why did I play this movie' Nova thought.

"How?"
"Because I still don't know who spread those rumours. If that person didn't do that, brother would still be alive and maybe even happy with his soulmate. I am going to regret this till my deathbed,"
"I actually...Know who did that..."
Chelsea looked at Nova,
"Who is it?"

MJ and Jaden looked at each other.
MJ jumped off of the 15TH FLOOR OF THE APARTMENT!
And I finally thought he was mature now...

"MJ!" Jaden shouted and looked down.
"What?" He stood on a nearby building.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" I shouted.
"Fucking pigeons? Parkour—Terrace culture, duh!" He jumped away.

"YOU'LL FALL! I HOPE YOU FALL!" Jaden shouted and MJ went away. Jaden laughed and decided to go to Harry's place.

"You tried to pick up Jenifer and Ivian, and they made fun of you. I was sitting beside them," That brunette girl said. She sat beside Harry.

"Oh, I see," Harry seemed least interested in her in that moment. This is some gay development right there.
"Honestly, I was wanting to see you again," She said.
Harry looked at her,
"I kinda like your vibe, wanna hang out? Let's start as friends," She said, "Maybe we might like each other more than we think,"

Harry turned and looked aside. Jaden stood there right beside them and looked at them.
MJ took a cigarette from Louise, "It happened again..."

"Sorry," Jaden turned back and ran away.
"What a cock blocker. Anyways, what do you say, Harry?"
Harry looked at her and smiled.

Jaden walked back home. He felt pathetic because he lost someone he could have won.
"Jaden,"
Jaden turned back. Harry looked at him,
"Harry,"
Harry walked towards him.

"Hey," He smiled.
"Did something happen?" Jaden asked.
"You are right. You honestly do like me as a friend. But, I'm sorry, I can't do that. So, I think we should not see each other again. It'll help me get over you a little bit faster,"
"Huh?"

"I'm not going to say that I'm the best person you ever met because I'm clearly not one. You are an amazing guy who has a beautiful soul to his friends and family. But I sure as hell felt like I was the best person you met. I made you feel loved even when I didn't feel it myself. I felt like it was my fault for raising my hopes in you. I broke down my walls for you but I guess it's useless to let you in when you don't want to come in. Let's just forget everything..."

Jaden looked at him. Why was he sating all this suddenly? Did she tell something to him? Did that girl try to manipulate him? Jaden felt his anger rising.

"Wow, it hurts, Harry,"
"What?"

"How can you say that so easily? How can I forget everything? How can I sit here and act like we never happened? The things we said, did and went through? You had me dreaming for a month! You were my favorite everything, my favorite person, my favorite voice, my favorite scent, my favorite smile...I looked forward to being alone with you. All the phone calls and messages. They had to mean something at one point and it all hurts so much to let it all go. I can't just throw away memories. It was not supposed to be like this,"

"Why not? You rejected me so now what are you fighting for? If you just want to stay friends, let go and start this friendship anew, then I'm sorry. I am not that strong to stay friends with the person I like. And I still love you, okay?"

Jaden looked at him and Harry looked at his feet,
"People just tell me to let go and say that they don't need me. But I do. Well, I did. You were all I needed and nobody else mattered to me as much as you did. I don't want anybody else, I want you! I don't wanna be making memories with someone else. I want to make more memories with you but now I can't and it hurts and you just bring the pain back again and again, you fucking sadist," Harry started crying, "You made me feel like I was wanted by you. Did you find it fun? Stringing me along, thinking I had a chance when I didn't? Did you find it fun knowing that I liked you and do nothing about it? Tell the truth, you saw it coming, didn't you?"

You know the worst feeling? It's when you are talking and you feel you're about to cry and you just hope that your voice isn't showing it.

"I was afraid to hurt you..." Jaden said.
"WHAT A LOAD OF BULLSHIT, JADEN! You weren't afraid, you were enjoying yourself."
"No, I wasn't"
"No, you were! And the truth is, you are a coward!"

"You know what the truth is? I like you. A lot.
Maybe I didn't realize it then but now I do. Harrison Louverne, I like you. A lot. Maybe more than I know. Maybe more than I've liked anyone for a long time. And to be honest, I am a coward because it kinda scares me. I don't want to screw up what we have, whatever it is, and I've fallen pretty damn hard for you. I just hope that whatever happens we don't ruin what we had before all this happened. The reason why I kept my feelings to myself was because I couldn't explain them. I... am sorry. I love you and I'm sorry. I hurt you and I'm sorry," Jaden started crying, "I'm sorry for messing up and I'm sorry for everything that I've been and I shouldn't have...Do you still love me?"

Harry grabbed his face and kissed him on his lips.
Harry laughed as tears left his eyes, "What the hell are we doing?"
"I don't know but I don't want to stop," Jaden smiled.
"You're so fucking weird,"
"Focus on kissing,"

"What did you tell that girl, though? She seemed interested in you,"
"Oh her? I told her I'm sorry but I like someone else. And she was cool with it...Also, Jaden,"
"Yeah?"
Harry narrowed his eyes,
"You're a sadist, aren't you?" 

"I guess?" 

'What the hell is that?' Jaden thought.

Chelsea walked towards a house in Nova's bike suit. It was an old, wooden mansion, with fog covering the front yard. A tree had been cut in the forest beside it and the wooden planks and an axe was kept near that tree. Chelsea picked up the axe and walked towards the door of the house. She rung the doorbell and waited outside the door.
Elizzie Brown opened the door, "Yes?"
"Your name is Elizzie, right?"
"Yes?"

Chelsea held the axe on her throat, "Why did you do that to my brother?"
"What? Who are you?"
Chelsea moved close to her, "Do you see my eyes. Where have you seen them before?"
Elizzie looked into her eyes, "I don't remember,"
"In that case," Chelsea rose the axe, "I'll make you remember,"

"WHAT THE HELL?!" Elizzie closed the door but Chelsea began breaking it with the axe.
Elizie quickly dialed a number but Chelsea broke in.
"YOU MURDERER!"
Chelea threw the axe aside and grabbed Elizzie's neck, "YOU KILLED MY BROTHER! YOU'RE THE MURDERER HERE!"

She pujnched Elizzie's face and threw her on the floor. She punched her several times until Nova intervened, "CHELSEA!"
"LET ME GO!"
"SHE'LL DIE!"
"SHE SHOULD!"

Nova hugged her tightly, "Calm down, it's okay,"
"IT ISN'T! SHE'S THE ONE WHO SPREAD THOSE RUMOURS, YOU KNOW THAT!"
"I do, but this is not the right way to deal with her,"

"SHE DESERVES TO DIE!"
"You don't decide that."
Chelsea looked at Nova, "You're supposed to be on my side..."
"I am on your side. That's why I'm stopping you," Nova thought of something, "She killed Ryan, you'll kill her and then someday...Someone will kill you and I'll be left alone. You have the power to put an end to this. Can't you forgive her Chelsea?"

"I'm not weak!"
"It's takes strength to forgive someone who has always hurt you,"
"...I hate you, Nova," Chelsea said and Nova smiled, "Of course you do,"

Harry spent more time with Jaden now. He didn't feel alone. Jaden was always there only for him. He didn't flirt with other girls or went to hang out with other people.

Harry told Brandon about their relationship.

"Hey Harry. Let's have lunch together," Brandon called him on his table as he sat with other girls in the cafeteria. Harry hated those girls since always. They were bitchy and talked about each other in front of Brandon while they were alone. And Brandon just enjoyed watching them cut each other down for him. What a toxic group of people.

"No thanks," He went ahead and sat with Jaden, Ralf and Kate on another table. Brandon felt secluded. So, the next day, he invited Harry to have lunch but the city was hit by a hurricane that day. Bad luck for Brandon. So, he went and sat beside Harry in the class like always. Jaden sat on other side with Harry and he was busy talking to him.

"Hey Harry—"
"And you know, this is a Korean heart. You put your index finger and thumb together like this!"
"Oh yeah, it is," Jaden smiled. Brandon was never interested in conversations carried out by Harry and usually ignored him by just saying yes to everything Harry said. Jaden seemed genuinely interested in Harry's talks.

And this time, Brandon was too.
"Oh yeah, it does look like a heart," Brandon looked at his fingers. Harry turned towards him, "I know right?"
"Hey, I can just paint this part of my fingers red," Jaden picked up a marker.

"Seems fun!"
Brandon didn't wanted to do it but he thought he would be left out if he didn't. But no matter what he did, he wasn't getting the amount of attention he wanted.

Even in that huge crowd of girls surrounding him, he felt alone and lost. Kate was forcefully dragged into the prom performance. Brandon was by himself for that one week. Everyone was right there but they felt far away.

Unreachable.

Time was repeating itself and taking him back from he rose. And didn't want to go back. But,

You don't always get what you want.
