I made my way through boring LA (I liked the teacher, but the class itself was prepping for a test and I was very bored.) These periods were long, so just one more till lunch.

I gathered up my things at the end of class and made my way through the filling hallway. I wanted to avoid the crowds, as well as make it to chorus.

I walked down to the other end of the school, the music rooms being at the very opposite from where my LA class was. I walked into the chorus room and smiled at my director.

I found a spot next to Olivia on the risers and tried not to pay attention to Christopher. We were sopranos, but Olivia could sing a lot higher than me. I liked chorus, but my thoughts were elsewhere the entire period. As well as, I was hungry.

My stomach growled and I muttered to Olivia (trying not to be heard) that I just wanted to go to lunch. "I can tell." she laughed and focused back on Miss Raines.

Unfortunately, today was also the day Miss Raines picked a random 3 people to sing a song in front of the group. Christopher was picked first and he sang History by One Direction amazingly. He hit all the notes and his voice was, well perfect.

Olivia was selected next. And I was glad. She was in the Honors Choir, and I wanted her to show up Christopher.

Payton and I cheered her on as she sang To Have a Home from A very Potter Sequel.  It sounded amazing, and I secretly think she won over Christopher. Now it was an Alto's turn, and then we got to leave.

The selected alto sang Toxic by Britney Spears (not very well) and then the bell rang. Olivia and I caught up with Payton and the three of us walked to the cafeteria.

I dragged Payton to the pizza line while Liv went to grab the table. Walking with my tray I grabbed applesauce, sausage pizza, and a carton of vanilla flavored milk. I payed quickly and swiftly dashed off to my busy table Payton following behind me.

I sat down next to Liv, Payton on my other side, and the first thing she said was, "So when are you going to tell me what happened?"

"Later." I responded. I didn't want to have to say it where everyone in the room had a chance of hearing me say it.

"Alright, but you have to tell me. I'm your best friend," I nodded. I looked up from my food and smiled weakly, glad to have an awesome best friend like her. We could be really weird together, but there were times when we really cared about each other. And that's what mattered in having a best friend.

Rose tried to grab the table's attention but only got Olivia's and Allie's, them sitting right next to each other. Olivia hit my arm slightly to get my attention snapping me out of my daydream.

"Anyone want Pepperoni?" She asked dangling a bag over the middle of the table.
"Actually it's flavored meat. It even says so on the packaging," I replied snatching the bag from her. I passed out two to each person and gave the bag back to her. Everyone except Olivia of course. She was the only one who didn't like the flavored meat. Shame on her.

I spotted Christopher across the cafeteria. He was sitting back in his chair, laughing with his friends. And his arm was around that blonde girl he'd been kissing. Anger flared in my veins. I was sick of being hung up on him, but I couldn't help it.

Olivia touched my shoulder, "Okay, what is it?" she asked, her tone flat. She really wanted to know, but I just didn't want to say everything in the loud cafeteria.

"Can we go somewhere quiet?" I asked quietly.

"Yes, of course." she nodded. The two of us picked up our stuff and went to throw our stuff away. "I know a corner of the library we can hide in." she said as we walked out of the overcrowded room.

Olivia was just as antisocial as me, and we both had found spots to hide in. Mine was the tree, and hers was a table in an almost hidden room where the Cassandra Clare and Rick Riordan books were. (No one but us ever read them at our school.)

We walked in silence till we reached the corner. She quickly turned around to face me."Alright, now tell me."

I took a shaky breath and explained everything. Everything from the last two weeks came spilling out. How Chris had kissed that girl, how he didn't know I knew. How He kept trying to talk to me, but that I kept shutting him out. Everything about how I was feeling, I told her. And she just sat and listened. It felt so good to be able to just say everything.

By the end, she just nodded. Not saying anything at first. I knew she cared, she was just the kind of person who felt awkward expressing things like that.

I didn't realize I was crying until I finished talking. "Hey, it's okay." Liv said. I could really see now how much she was actually worried about me. She put a hand on my elbow from across the table and just sort of forced me to look at her.

"I don't know what to do Liv," I sobbed.

"Everything is going to be okay." she said, though I could tell she was only half believing it herself. Even if this didn't cause the world to end, it still hurt right now.

I wiped off the tears and smiled towards her as brightly as I could muster,"I guess so. Well, We have to go back to the cafeteria eventually. Wanna head back now?"

She nodded and helped me clean up my red face and we walked back to the cafeteria. On our way there I stopped us. She had never told me what she wanted to.

"Hey, what did you want to tell me earlier?"

"Oh um," she glanced down slightly embarrassed.

"It's okay, you can tell me anything. I mean you literally just watched me cry my eyes out because of a guy." I reassured her.

"I think... I have a crush on Anna." she muttered under her breath. "But, she's with Jason."

"Is that why they've been sneaking glances at each other? I'm so sorry Liv! I know what it's like to like someone and have them not reciprocate the feelings," I rambled trying to console her. Anna had always told me about her relationships. Why wasn't I told about her and Jason?

"She's probably straight anyways." Olivia said, trying to brush it off but still speaking in a quiet voice. Should I tell her she's bi? I want to but it's Anna's decision. Not mine.

I wanted too, but I didn't want Anna to know I told her. It still hurt to see Liv look so upset over this though.

Finally my thought's won through, "Hey, don't think like that. There's a small,"- Huge actually-"chance she's bi."

I saw her eyes light up a bit. "Really?"

"Really," I stated. She looked a lot happier. I just laughed. I took her hand, and we sort of ran back to the cafeteria, where our friends were just starting to finish up and head to class.

As I walked to French, I asked my teacher, "Après-midi Madame. Comment allez-vous?"  Mrs. Rosa smiled at me.

"Je vais bien, que diriez- vous Kendra ?" Mrs Rosa asked me in return.

French passed somewhat slowly, but fast enough. It was a bit boring, since it was just review from last week, but I was still excited to learn a language. Especially a beautiful language like French.

After French I had my free period. I grabbed my things and slowly made it back to my locker. I grabbed a pack of candy I kept in my locker and walked towards the library with my book. I kind of wanted to talk to Olivia about random stuff or something, but she had German now. Then came gym and finally home.

I shoved through the doors to the library and found a corner to focus reading The 5th Wave. My free period was spent in a dark corner of the library eating candy and reading, and before I knew it it was time for gym.

None of my friends were in gym with me, which sucks. They all had it alternate days from me.
It wouldn't be so bad, if Chris and I were still speaking. He was the only one in my period, and the only one I had been able to talk to during my worst class.

Sadly, that meant I had to deal with Christopher and Katherine by myself. Well, not officially. I had Taylor but he wasn't much help. It wasn't that he wasn't there for me, it was that he pathetic. Usually not in a bad way, but he would bruise just by being poked too hard.

We were playing dodge ball today. A school bully classic. All I knew was that I had to deal with Katherine in this class, and that Chris may try to talk to me.

I just didn't want to have to deal with him. I tried, I really did, but I couldn't get over him. He was just so present in my mind.

No matter where I was he was in my thoughts. The scene constantly replayed in my mind and I only wished that instead of the blonde it was me in that hallway with him.

I quickly changed in the locker room and raced out to the gym. I didn't want to have to deal with all the girls that came through. They always liked to harass me and such before class started.

I spotted Taylor quickly and ran to hide behind him. He was after all tall enough to be my human shield and hiding place. Katherine strutted over to me (how did she manage to look good in a gym uniform?) and shoved Taylor out of the way. "What do you think you're doing?"

"What do you mean?"

"The fact that you like Christopher. You have no shot, and I just have to say. You really are pathetic if you believe that you could ever get anyone, let alone him."

"Um... First of all, how dare you touch Taylor. He bruises very easily-" I heard Taylor protest before I continued "and second of all I was Hiding behind a friend of mine so I didn't have to deal with your awful attitude before you rudely pushed him."

"Um, I can handle myself." his voice cracked. He cursed under his breath at his vocal cord malfunction and Katherine just jutted out her hip, her groupies standing behind her.

"Taylor, shut up for a sec! Now, lastly I don't care about Christopher. He's more concerned about sticking his tongue down some blondes throat than actually paying attention to who's walking down the hallway. So, please feel free to be with him. But trust me when I say you have just as little of a chance as I do."

I stopped as he approached behind Katherine. "Kendra, I didn't know..."

"That I knew?" I asked angrily.

He had gone white, he was now nervous about something. "I wasn't like that, let me explain."

"I don't want you to explain!" I yelled (it wasn't really what i was thinking, but I didn't know what else to yell.) and ran over to the corner of the gym.

He tried to follow me and grabbed my arm. I turned around and looked into his eyes. "You almost kissed me. Then you went and made out with another girl. Please don't try to explain. It'll only hurt me more."

"But Kendra," he tried to look me in the eyes, but since there were tears brimming there, he found it hard. "I really have to tell you what that was really about."

"I don't care!" I yelled and yanked myself forcefully out of his grip.

"I was trying to get you out of my head, I thought you'd never like me. It didn't mean anything, ok. I like you." He said looking me in the eyes.

I tore my eyes away from his walking away. But not before muttering,"I don't believe you."

I spent the rest of gym class crying in a corner, and the teachers let me. Taylor claimed he was going to come over at the end of class, but he had been hit in the head and had had to go to the nurse.

At the end, Olivia and Payton both came and found me in the gym from where I hadn't moved. "Come on Ken." Liv said and Payton offered her hand to pull me up.

I took her hand and slowly stood up. I took my time getting redressed into my normal clothes. I walked out of the locker room to find Payton and Olivia standing outside.

"Thanks guys, you didn't need to wait for me."

"Why wouldn't we wait for you?" Olivia asked. "Now, you're both coming over to my house and we're going to watch GBF or Sorcerers Stone."

"I need my GBF. Even Harry's sass isn't going to work for this funk." I said laughing half heartedly.

"Well then. We need to get to Olivia's faster." Payton laughed and we walked out through the deserted hallways of the school.

"Can we get some ice cream?" I begged.

"I have pints stored at my house for a Code Red."

"THANK GOD! You know this is the first time a code red has actually ever been called..."

"Yeah. But, there are many others codes the ice cream could be used for," she stated in a flat voice and Payton bursting with laughter made Liv and I laugh too.

"Like my random code pinks?"

"Exactly," the two said together as we pushed through the front doors. I waved to the secretary to let her know we were leaving and the three of us went to my car.

Olivia usually rides with Rose, being they live so close to each other (just like Payton and I) but she must've told Rose to go on without her. This was a Marauders matter.

As I pulled out of the school I noticed a car still in the parking lot. I passed by it and payed little attention to it. The car made a lasting impression in my mind for no reason but I brushed it off. I had my friends and a movie to occupy my time.

A/N
Once again, big thanks to Phase for staying up late so we could update this story again today! Also, for those of you who aren't all caught up with the AVMP musicals the song Olivia sings is in the description.

How do you guys feel about Christopher right now? I mean I have no idea wether to feel bad for him or be mad at him so yeah, I'm very confused.

Vote for more double updates (JK I can only write when I feel inspired. 🙁. But, it does bring this book up on the teen fiction charts so yeah 😄)!

Love you guys!
