   I hope you all had a great Holiday... mine was pretty great! Because it was the Holidays, I couldn't upload on the 25th, like I normally would(since I try to update this every 2 days)... but I guess one more day couldn't hurt, right? So, I guess we can go to the part now!

Your Point of View:

   As time went on, I couldn't help but feel even more anxious, even more nervous... even more feely than before. Sure, I had feelings, but I didn't express them before like I am now. I felt more emotional... like I was constantly going through a crisis everyday. I guess now that I had a better social life... the pressure was getting to me. It was Saturday, but my parents don't have the day off. They had Wednesdays and Sundays off, not Saturdays. I was alone, like during the weekdays, unless I was with my friends. I sighed, desperately wanting to do something. I looked out my window, and then got a idea. Maybe I would check out that park close by. I was still relatively new, I still had things to explore. It was only like, 5 minutes away, I could just walk there, right? I needed to get my mind off of all this, love triangle stuff. Of course, it was Cadenza's fault for giving me a stupid list. I did however, stuff it in (F/B), which I couldn't stop reading, and brought a little drawstring bag with a snack, a plastic water bottle, the book, a pencil, and my phone, so that I could listen to music. I also grabbed my wallet and house key. I put on a pair of tennis shoes. I was already wearing jeans, and a (F/C) t-shirt. My hair was barely touched, for the exception of getting the tangles out, and I didn't have makeup on. It was just to a park! I walked out, and looked around. I never really got a chance to say hi to my neighbors... nor did I really know streets yet. Well, at least phones have a GPS, right? I found my way to the park, and sat down at a bench next to this large tree. I grabbed my book out of my bag, and set my bag next to me. I opened it, and then the list fell down... right... stupid list! I picked it up, and looked at it once more. I grumbled, opening my book. I was supposed to be calm, not frustrated. This was the park, not school! I started reading, but as I read certain words, I couldn't help but be reminded of the burden on my shoulders. I had to pick one... every time this happened, I scanned the list. It took away from my book! Not to mention (F/B) is amazing! After a while, I got frustrated, and threw the book on the ground. I buried my head in my hands, and groaned.
   "Looks like school's got ya, huh?" I looked up, to see those familiar blue eyes and hair... the only person I knew with blue was Dante.
   "Not school, just... life."
   "Heh, mind if I sit with you?"
   "Be my guest." I sighed. He sat down, and panted. "What are you doing here?"
   "Well, if you couldn't tell by my sweaty appearance and running shoes, I jog." he chuckled, "It's mainly how I keep in shape for football... other than going to the gym."
   "Interesting."
   "But seriously, why in the world did you throw a book on the ground? You looked pretty frustrated."
   "In short, Cadenza knows how to confuse you, and make you feel really really awkward." he laughed, then smirked, 
   "Then I'm almost positive I know what this is about."
   "Really?"
   "That love triangle she keeps rambling on about. You know, we're the only two not involved, so she tries to talk to me about it, since it would be 'awkward' to talk to anyone else about it."
   "So, you know what's going on?"
   "Know? I've seen it. You know, I can't blame Cadenza though."
   "What do you mean?"
   "I mean, those times where you and one of the guys just smile, or laugh, and look at each other, it looks like one of those cheesy love movies or something."
   "No, she does more than just gawking. She went to my house just so she could write this." I gave him the list, and he read it, before laughing. "Stop it! It's weird!"
   "No, it's not! These things happened? I can remember some, but some I didn't even know happen! Gee (F/N), what's with the hiding?"
   "Very funny, Dante."
   "I'm just teasing, you know. I mean, I would tell you my opinion, but to be honest, I don't care about any of this. I mean, it's between you, Garroth and Laurence, and you guys just so happen to be my friends, but I mean, it's your life. For as long as I've known Cadenza, she's always been noisy, and annoying at times, but I see why. I mean, Laurence is her brother."
   "So you think she's bias?"
   "I'm saying she's trying to help her brother."
   "Wait, why?"
   "While siblings do fight, and while they may hate each other, some like to be helpful. Cadenza in this case wants her brother to end up with someone he has feelings for. Laurence and Garroth have feelings for you. Heck, I was there when they both confessed. You know, I've been kind of like the listener."
   "Really?"
   "Yeah, I mean, I'm there whenever someones needs to speak. It's why Cadenza talks to me all the time. She knows I have a more personal relationship with Laurence, and I'm a guy, they're guys, so it's like a bro to bro thing. I mean, I've known Laurence since elementary, and we got along knowing we both liked the same things, like our love for the Rio and football. But, we were kids. Garroth... we've hung out a couple times before, and he's a cool dude."
   "That's new. I'm just so conflicted. Oh geez this is embarrassing." I looked down.
   "Not really." I looked up, and Dante smiled, "It's normal. At least for someone like me. But, I can only imagine you haven't had anyone to talk to outside of school and friends... it's really only your mom, huh?"
   "Yeah... my dad would probably flip the table if he found out two guys liked me." I laughed.
   "Well, that's what dads do. I care about you, (F/N). And not like Cadenza, Laurence and Garroth do. No, they're weird about it." that comment made me laugh, "But I can say I care about you, like a sibling would. I have a brother, but he's in college, and living a life of his own. Heck, I haven't heard from him in years. But, it's been a while since I could call someone a sibling. Let's just say like Cadenza's trying to help Laurence, and Vylad is trying to help Garroth, I'm trying to help you. Because, you'll need some backbone at one point, right?"
   "I guess. I just don't like the pressure. I don't want to ruin anything."
   "I can tell you one thing, whichever you choose isn't going to change my opinion of you."
   "And why is that?"
   "I don't have a side in this triangle. I'm on Team (F/N), you could say. You're the strong one in this situation, because you're the girl. And if the guys really care about you, they would accept you, as either a friend or a potential love interest. That's my opinion on it."
   "You're right... but I hate hurting people."
   "While it may hurt them, they would grow out of it if they still wanted you in their lives. I mean, isn't that a part of life? Sometimes you're gonna get hurt, but you gotta get back up, right?"
   "Yeah. You know, you would be a great counselor." we laughed, and then Dante chuckled.
   "I am serious though. If you need anything at all, don't you dare hesitate to give me a call or text. If you can't face anyone else, just know I'm here. And while we may not know each other as well as we know others, just know that I willing to help. I know you're kind, and nice, and I want to be the same back."
   "Thank you Dante." I smiled. We hugged, before he got up, "I will."
   "Alright. I'll see you later, OK?"
   "Alright!" he ran off, and I sighed. I looked at the book on the ground, before picking it up. I flipped to the list. 
   "You're the strong one in this situation. If the guys really care about you, they would accept you." his words kept replaying in my head, as I got up. I put the book and list in my bag, and threw it over my shoulder. I took out my phone, and walked away from the bench. I found my way home, and unlocked the door, entering my home. I closed the door, and took off my shoes. I threw the bag on the stairway, before going to the kitchen. I got a call, and it was my mom.
   "Hello?"
   "(F/N), I'm going to be in the offices later. I won't be back till around 11. Your father is attending a work party, so I'm going to assume he'll be back at around 10-11. So, your in charge of your own dinner."
   "Um, OK."
   "Sorry sweetie, but at least we'll have Sunday to do something."
   "No, that's fine! Alright, I mean, I'll probably be in bed by 10, so... I guess I can order a pizza or something."
   "That's fine. I can pay you back later."
   "OK, thanks Mom."
   "Yep. Love you honey."
   "Love you too."
   "Bye." she hung up, and set my phone down. Looks like I had the house to myself for the day... what was I going to do? Should I bake something? Baking sounds really fun... but I don't want to mess it up... OH! Maybe I should do some themed cookies... what kind of cookies?

Third Person's Point of View:

   While (F/N) was making cookies, other people had other plans. 
   "Laurence..." Cadenza knocked on his bedroom door. Laurence was on his laptop, before pausing his game.
   "Yeah?"
   "Can I come in?"
   "Sure." Cadenza slowly opened the door, and sat on his bed.
   "So, I talked to (F/N) a bit ago. That's why I left so suddenly."
   "Is she OK?"
   "She's... fine. She's just conflicted."
   "Conflicted? Why would she feel conflicted?"
   "Because, I confronted her."
   "Confronted her? Cadenza, you've got to be more specific."
   "I confronted her about you and Garroth's feelings."
   "What?" Laurence stood up, "Cadenza, why would you do that? Are you crazy!?"
   "No, I'm resourceful! She... she got a kick out of it. She likes both of you, but she's conflicted. Laurence, I'm trying to help you, and I'm tired of you not getting the happiness you deserve! You deserve (F/N), and I want to help you!"
   "Why must you be so noisy, Cadenza? I can do things on my own!"
   "Because, I love you Laurence. I love you like any other sister would, and you deserve (F/N). I want you to be with her, because you've worked so hard!"
   "I'm not the only one you know!"
   "So? You have a chance, Laurence! Can't you see it? If you show a good time before and after Prom, you're sure to win her over."
   "Cadenza, Garroth is like my brother. Not like Dante, but our friendship has grown, too. I don't want to ruin that."
   "Neither does he, but both of you are head over heels for (F/N)! Laurence, I worry about you."
   "I can do things on my own, Cadenza. I'm not 4, I'm 18... I can take care of myself."
   "I know, I just... I just want you to be happy. I'm making her Prom dress, but I'm not letting you see what it looks like until she has it on Prom Night. I'm making your tie as well. Just, promise me you'll try to win her over Prom Night? I think you guys are perfect for each other. When the both of you sang that song, I didn't want to join in, because you both sounded so lovely."
   "OK." Cadenza got up to leave, and gently closed Laurence's bedroom door. As soon as Cadenza was gone, Laurence sighed, closing his laptop. She was right, and he didn't want to admit it. He didn't want her to be right... but she had a point. Even if it was bias, it was true. He sighed, standing up. He walked over to his dresser, and pulled out the photo frames of his friends. He looked at all of them, how (F/N)'s eyes shone, how her smile was as white as fresh snow... he groaned, setting the photo down. Why did he have to fall for her... why did he mess up the first day... why did he have to think about her every second of the day? He flopped onto his bed, and looked up at the ceiling, wondering how he was going to give (F/N) the best Prom ever. He wanted her to feel like a Princess... his Princess.

   OK... that was an adorable ending... SO MANY PLANS XD
   HERRO! It's me!!! XD But that was quite an experience. As I re-read all of my work, I realized how in the background Dante was. He had never really talked to (You lol), so I wanted to change that. Also, this is not a Garroth x Laurence x Dante x Reader, so Dante isn't much of a love interest XD I just wanted a moment between them that would significantly change their bond, make it a bit better, you know? So, I personally think it was a great touch, but let me know what you think in the comments. Also, at this point, (F/N) does need some support. Not only in this book but in the actual series, Cadenza does think Laurence is good, and then because Garroth and Vylad are step-siblings in this book, I just thought it would be normal for a brother to root for a brother. (F/N) is a single child in this book, so she does need some backup. Dante was my choice from the very beginning. I wanted him to have a very minor part, but at the same time, make an impact so great that it would keep their friendship a very close one. Getting my vibe?XD But, I hope you all enjoyed this part, and I'll see you in the next one. Buh-bye! ~Morgan :D
