Max's POV

I stared at both boys.

Fang with his black hair that fell over one eye, his dark brown eyes, his olive coloured skin, his tall, solid build and secret lopsided grin.

Dylan with his shaggy dark blonde hair, his turquoise blue eyes, his Californian surfer tan, his tall and slightly muscular build and kind and warm smile.

"I don't know guys" I sighed.

"Aww come on Max. Who's got a better chance with her?" Dylan asked.

They were fighting over some chick on tv.

"Neither, she's rather commit suicide than be tethered to one of you" I said and they rolled their eyes.

"Pfft as if. Any girl would kill to have me" Fang smirked

. "Same here" Dylan laughed.

"As if" I said using my fingers as a gun and pretending to shot myself in the head.

"Sure sure Max. We know you secretly love us" Dylan laughed and Fang nodded.

I just rolled my eyes, but they had no idea.

Fang and Dylan were probably my closest and oldest friends.

I also had Lissa, Ella and Nudge.

I had known Lissa since I was a kid. She was kind and funny, but then she hit high school and she started wanting to fit in with the crowd. She died her long blonde hair red and started turning into a bitch. I wasn't going to give up on her yet though, she was still my friend.

Ella was a year younger than me. She was only 15 and I was 16. She had brown hair and eyes and was soft and kind.

Nudge was also only 15; she had dark mocha colour skin with a tall slender body and dark fizzy hair.

There was also Iggy; he was Lissa's twin brother. Iggy was tall and pale with strawberry blonde hair and pale blue eyes. Iggy was the opposite too his sister. She was all about her image and being the center of attention whereas Iggy was all about having fun and doing what he wanted.

Plus a boy named Gazzy who was 15. Gazzy had spiky blonde hair and big blue eyes and was a lot like Iggy. That's why they were best friends but Gazzy had become one of us, and his little 5 year old sister Angel was so cute.

Anyways, so this was my group of friends, we weren't very popular. I didn't get along with any of the popular people. The girls mocked me and the boys thought I was weird.

Anyways, Fang and Dylan we're probably the two best friends I had.

Most people think, you can have two boys and a girl who have known each other for years and not have any romantic stuff going on there. Well it's true, you can't.

Three years ago there was an incident between Dylan and I, but Dylan never acknowledged it, so we just forgot about it.

Last year there was an incident between Fang and I. We all just forgot it and never mentioned it.

The only problem is, I couldn't let it go.

Three years ago Dylan was all I had. I don't remember what happened but for some reason my other friends had slowly drifted away and it was just Dylan and I.

Everyday we'd just lie on the school oval and talk. Before I knew it I realised I had feelings for Dylan.

Dylan is kind, sweet, caring, honest, friendly and understanding. How could I not fall for him?

Anyways, I decided there was no point ruining the friendship just because I was feeling hormonal.

The next year everything went back to normal, my friends were back and I went back to just wanting to be friends with Dylan.

Last year was my first heart break though. Still now it kills me to think about it.

Last year I realised I had feelings for Fang. He was funny, smart, kind and a great friend.

I tried to let him know how I felt, but I didn't want to be obvious.

I flirted with him, and to my delight he flirted back.

We would stay up all night texting and I felt like I could tell him anything.

Finally I plucked up the courage to ask him how he really felt about me, well kind of, I texted him.

He told me he wanted to tell me face to face so I invited him over that weekend when I was home alone.

We just hung out and that until he had to leave. I rushed him to the door and stood in his way. I asked him how he really felt about me.

Time slid away and we stood there for what felt like forever. Before I knew what was happening Fang leaned in and kissed me.

It was just a small kiss, but it was my first kiss and to me it amazing.

Before I acknowledged what had happened he had walked out the door and was gone. I let him go, too flustered to call him back.

At the time that was the best feeling of my life. I was so happy.

The next day at school though Fang was acting like it never happened. I waited for him to say something about it for days, but he never did.

It seemed more like he was drifting away from me and was paying more attention to Lissa. At first I thought I was being paranoid, but I knew I wasn't.

That night I texted him, asking if he liked Lissa that way. He asked me why I wanted to know.

I remember the sickening feeling I got as I texted back that I liked him more than a friend.

He replied to that with 'Yes, I like Lissa".

I was heartbroken. He used me. My best friend played me. I didn't let him know how much it hurt and we just went back to being friends, but I could never put it behind me.

So all in all I decided to just be friends with these two and not let complicated feelings ever get in the way of our friendships. But it never stays that way.
