WELL, HERE'S THE NEXT CHAPTER, ENJOY!

Humphrey's P.O.V

I wasn't actually surprised. It never seemed that Garth actually loved her. Not like I did. I tried to cheer her up.

"Hey, hey. Don't cry…It'll be alright" I assured.

Kate wrapped her arms tightly around me. Butterflies started swirling around inside me.

"Why are you so good to me, Humphrey?" asked Kate.

"Hey, what are friends for?" Kate let go of Humphrey and did her characteristic smile.

"So, you want to catch a movie or something later?" I asked. Kate dried her eyes and nodded her head.

"Great! See you later, then" I exclaimed. Kate walked off to join her friends. Only then, I realized a lot of people had been watching, including Shakey.

"What was that about?" questioned my short, grey classmate.

"Oh, nothing, just…going to a movie later…"I replied.

"Hey you might actually win her" Shakey indicated. I rolled my eyes and walked with Shakey to our next class.

I sat down with my friends in the cafeteria. Without warning, Garth punched me in the face, pulled me off my seat and kicked me in the gut.

"Hit on my girl, will you?" raged Garth. I then decided I had had enough of Garth pushing me around.

"You broke up with her!" I shouted as I launched my fist into Garth's eye, giving him a black eye. Garth returned the favor by grabbing my head, kneeing it and throwing meat a stack of chairs. By now, everyone was watching intently

Under the pile of chairs, I felt blood flowing from my nose. I jumped out and ran at Garth. But before I could attack, the principal intervened.

"Humphrey Winters, Garth Moore! My office! NOW!" he ranted. We broke up the fight, and marched through the doors and to the principal's office.

"You two better set this straight. That is not the Jasper Spirit. You two are going to clean the entire cafeteria." We groaned.

"After school!" We groaned even louder.

"Dismissed!" shouted the principal. Garth and I left and walked in different directions.

"What am I going to tell Kate?" I thought to myself.

After everyone left, Garth and I stayed behind to clean up. I swept the floors, and Garth stacked everything away.

Kate and Lily made their way to the cafeteria. I then told Kate I had to stay behind and clean up.

"Wait, Lily, could you stay behind and help?" asked Kate to her sister. Lily just rolled her eyes.

"Fine, give me the broom" mumbled Lily. I handed it over and left with Kate.

When we arrived Kate asked me what we should see.

"How about that…Hungry Games thing or whatever" I said.

"Oh, you mean the Hunger Games! Sure, let's go!" We bought our tickets, popcorn and two Cokes and went to enjoy our movie.

Kate's P.O.V

2 ½ HOURS LATER…

"Wow, thanks Humphrey that was great!" I stated.

"Yeah, so what now? The mall?" asked Humphrey. I agreed and they left for a day of shopping.

They arrived at Jasper City Mall and went to get a bite to eat.

"Sooo…what was that about in the cafeteria?" I asked Humphrey curiously.

"Oh, uh…I got into a fight with Garth" he said through a mouthful of French fries.

"Good. He deserved it" I smiled. Humphrey laughed.

"I agree." He replied.

"Okay, let's go…oh, just wait outside, I need to get something." He said.

"Oh, okay, see you soon"

Humphrey's P.O.V

I walked across to a flower stand, while Kate was waiting outside. I chose a bouquet of marigolds. They reminded me of her beautiful, amber eyes. I paid the man and went outside to join Kate.

My eyes widened. She had her back turned to an oncoming bus. I jumped to action. I ran towards her, screamed "LOOK OUT!" and tackled her out of way.

Kate's P.O.V

"LOOK OUT" Humphrey bellowed, and I was knocked to the ground.

"What is wrong with you, Humphrey?" I exclaimed angry at him. I got up and turned around. A crowd had gathered in front of this bus. I wondered what was going on.

I pushed my way through the crowd, and my heart sank at the sight.

Humphrey was lying on the ground, in a pool of his own blood, his legs bent at awkward angles. In his hand, was a bouquet of flowers.
