Jerome POV:

"Just tell me what you did, Alf," I sighed, I was just getting ready to go to Mara's room to discuss our Campaign ideas when Alfie came into our room and started explaining his latest "prank". "Actually, Alfie, I really have to go, so could you tell me about it later?"

"Let me guess... you're going to Mara's aren't you?" Alfie said disappointed. I have to admit, I have been spending a lot of time with her for the last couple of days, but why did Alfie hate it so much. Then again I wasn't really spending much time with him, and he is my best friend, so I guess that's why I'm feeling a little guilty right now. Actually no, I'm feeling guilty because I am in love with Mara, Mick's "girlfriend". I mean Mick is my friend; I shouldn't be doing this to him. Then again, he is away, so...no, I'm not going to do that to him. What I don't get is, why does Mara like him anyway? I mean he is such a player, and it's obvious that Amber still has feelings for him, and I bet Mick still has feelings for her too.

"Um, yeah... you have to discuss your Campaign ideas... but... if you want you can come along too." I said, hesitantly, I really want a chance for Mara to see my "sensitive side" as she likes to call it, and with Alfie there... well let's just say, he's going to do something stupid, I'm going to laugh, and there goes my "sensitive side"

"No, it's alright... I don't want to feel like a third wheel... besides... I have to talk to Patricia about something." he said.

"You and Patricia... do you like her?" I said, confused, "the last time I checked she scared you."

"Oh, she still does," he laughed, "but no, I don't like her... well not like that. So how are things going with you in Maraland? You are so in love with her! You know... you should have a clash name... like Merome... or... Jara. Yes Jara!"

"Good bye Alfie," I said, hearing to much than I needed to hear. Jara, I chuckled, under my breath. Actually... that's a pretty good name for us... well, if there ever is an "us". As I began getting out the door I could see a shadow... "Hello, who's there?" getting no answer I continued door the hall and up into Mara's room.

Mara POV:

That's it, I thought angrily as I stormed through the hall and down the stairs. Jerome is half an hour late and we have important things to discuss. I was about to go knock on his and Alfie's bedroom when I heard voices. Being nosy Mara, I decided to listen in to what they were saying.

"So how are things going with you in Maraland?" I heard Alfie say, "You are so in love with her! You know... you should have a clash name... like Merome... or... Jara. Yes Jara!" When I heard Alfie says that, my heart stopped beating... and it took about 3 seconds to restart again...I couldn't believe what I was hearing... Jerome likes, I mean... loves me? Maybe that's why he acts weird when I talk about Mick. No that's not true... Jerome is going to deny it. Then I will know that it's not true.

But he didn't, because all he said was, "Goodbye, Alfie," chuckling. So it is true? Wow... I didn't see that coming. Wait, did he say "goodbye"? Oh crap! That means he's leaving his bedroom, and that means he will see me! I quickly hid behind a linked wall that was close to Mick and Fabian's room.

"Hello, who's there?" Jerome asked, as he started looking around. Please don't let him see me, I said crossing my fingers. Luckily he didn't see me and when down the hall and up the stairs.
