“Explain what?” I asked, annoyed with him.

“Why you are still with me, when you CLEARLY like him,” Tom retorted.

“What the heck are you talking about, you crazy person?” I asked, confused and angry.

“I DON ’T EVEN KNOW ANY MORE ! Okay? It’s over,” He said, storming off to the boys’ bathroom.

I was more angry than upset. Why the heck did he think I liked my best friend? Overemotional freak.

I turned back to Nick, who had a sympathetic look on his face.

“He’s mean,” Nick said, “You’ll be okay, you don’t need him.”

I sighed. “I know. Agh, I’ll be over it soon. It’s cool.”

I smiled at him, & he started to laugh.

“What?” I asked.

“I just kinda thought you would be the one to break up with that freak,” he replied, cracking up harder.

“That’s not that funny,” I replied, holding back a laugh of my own.

“Yeah, it is. LIKE HE IS EVER GONNA GET ANOTHER GIRLFRIEND !” Nick almost fell over laughing, and I joined in.

We were trying to catch our breath when the bell rang & all the classes emerged into the halls.
