Olivia's POV

I believe the world came to a complete halt last week. My world feel apart completely; one unfortunate event after the other. Our freshman year was over, and you think the torture would end, but the biggest let down of all came from my so-called "friends."

Ray Beech asked Stella Yamada to the spring formal.

You might wonder how I know this; well the problem is I don't. I hope my mind has wondered into a completely inaccurate accusation, but knowing Stella, as I do, one can never be sure. The thought is totally disheartening and sickening, but yet it all makes sense. I feel that I am right and should speak up and tell Mo. I guess we will see how this all play out at lunch.

*Last week* Stella's POV

What horrid person would stick adolescents into a building full of bothersome adult to "learn"? Well, at least I'm not completely bored. Ray sits behind me, and Wen sit next to me, and they love to "chit-chat."

"Hey, Stella, Can I borrow a pencil?" I look back at a needy look on Ray's face. I laugh to myself before answering, "I thought rich kids always come prepared?"

"That is why I asked you for a pencil."

"Just shut up and take the stupid pencil," I say passing him the sharpie pencil forcefully.

"Yamada, Beech, how many times have I told you two to BE QUIET. This is History not SOCIAL studies, ha-ha, oh Bob your HIGHlerious. That going in the book," Mr. Till says taking out a notebook marked "Comedy Gold".

"We are sorry Mr. Till, it won't happen again," Ray assures. I just sink down in my chair, waiting for the bell to declare lunch. By the time the bell did ring, I was asleep. Stella….Stella…Stella…..

"Stella!" I look up to see Wen tapping my shoulder. When we left the classroom I went to my locker to put away my books.

"Hey Stell." I look up at Camryn; she is sort of my best friend. She is also Ray's cousin.

"Oh hey, have you seen Olivia, I have her Calculus text book?" Now I know what you're thinking, "isn't Stella the type of girl who gets 'C' and detentions?" Well, I get all C's and an A in math, that is why I am in Calculus in eleventh grade. So is Mo, Olivia, Scott, Taylor, and Ray; we are the only elevate graders in the class.

"No, but I have been talking to Ray. Last night Scott, Megan, Dean, and I were at Ray's house, and he said he has been thinking about asking you out!"

"First of all, who is Megan, and you guys were at Ray's house and I wasn't invited! You think you know a guy and then you find out they have secret parties without inviting you," I smirk.

"Stella! We were just practicing soccer; you're not in our cliché. Megan, Scott, Dean, Ray, and I have known each other forever; you're missing the big picture! Ray is going to ask you out! What are you going to do about it?" She looks at me waiting for a huge explosion, but all I say is:

"I am not missing the big picture! Ever since last year Ray and I have been friends, and this so-called Megan girl gets invited to Ray's house instead of me! I thought we were friends," I yell as I slam my locker shut, then I realize how loud I was…."oops."

"Stella! RAY IS GOING TO ASK YOU OUT! DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M SAYING!?"

"Of course I understand. He asked me out this morning. I'm meeting him in the middle of lunch in the library."

Mo's POV

Olivia and I walk into the cafeteria and we are greeted by a giant blob of crazy people in the middle of the lunch room. I look around the room to try to find Scott. "What's going on?" I look to Olivia; I don't know why I expected her to know.

"Scott and Dean are about to fight! We have to go find Ray!" I look over as Wen is running by us.

"But, Scott would never hurt anyone. Like when there is a fly he just lets it fly out the window," I say to Wen's back.

"We know! That is why Dean is about to pummel him," Charlie tries to shout over the crowd of instigators. Olivia, Wen, Charlie, and I run to the library, because Ray always eats lunch in there on Mondays.

"Ray! You have to come to the cafeteria NOW! Dean is about to smash Scotts head in," I shout as we enter the library.

"Why what happened?!" he looks up from a book labeled "Greek Mythology" He was on the floor in the corner with glasses on. I guess he could read my facial expressions, because he says," I forgot my contacts."

"Well, Dean was yelling at Scott over something about soccer…I don't know. All I know is Scott will be in the emergency room if we don't act fast," Wen says in a huge rush.

"Yeah, Dean never could control his anger, I suggested yoga, but he is stubborn, too," Ray continues.

"Who are you, the Avatar," Charlie giggles.

"Come on guys my boyfriend is about to die!"

"Mo relax, your ora is messing with me only thirty minutes of peace at school. Come on, let's go save Pickett," Ray replies getting up. Who does he think he is?

When we get to the cafeteria Scott is actually….alive. He is arguing with Dean, but all his limbs are attached. It's a miracle!

"I guess this is when I save the day," Ray mumbles walking up to the two "comrades". "HEY! Dean, Scott. What the heck are you two wartheads arguing about now!? You're interrupting my peace period!"

"Scott said that I have an ugly girlfriend!"

"Only because he said Mo was an illegal immigrant!"

"First of all, you are such an idiot Dean; there are no illegal immigrants from India! India is all the way across the ocean! They can't just hop the border like people in Mexico! Asian people come to America and become citizens!"(A/N: No offense to Asian or Mexican people at all)

"Yeah," Scott says in agreement.

"Scott, you can't say anything because Taylor is probably the prettiest cheerleader out there," Ray replies."Your both being a bunch of idiots, you guys have been friends forever, don't forget that your actually friends...I'm gonna go now, try not to punch the life out each other."

With that Ray walks away, I am guessing he's going back to the library. Then I realize Camryn and Stella are missing.

Ray's POV

When I walk into the library Stella and Camryn are both sitting at the table next to where I was sitting.

"Hey," Camryn says nodding to me. I guess they were talking about something they didn't want me to hear. I just smile and then straight face them. I walk over to the corner and continue reading. It didn't take them a few seconds to interrupt me.

"Soooo, Ray….You had something to say to Stella?" I just look up at her like she is the craziest person on the planet.

"Yes, I did have something to say to STELLA. I did not plan for you to be here."

Stella and Camryn exchange a look, and away goes Camryn. After Camryn leaves, Stella comes and sits down next to me. I smiled at her, and she returned the gesture.
