The next day, Zander spent with his mom. Trying not to think of the disastrous turn of events that happened last night, He tried to reconnect with his mom by helping her garden and help bake cookies for the little girls from across the street who has been begging for her famous oatmeal raisin cookies for weeks now.

But as hard as he tried, he couldn't get Stevie and her reaction out of his mind. After confessing his feelings for her, she started up the car, turned the radio up loud, and drove the rest of the way home in silence. It felt like forever before they reached his house and the uncomfortable silence had to stop because of his amiable mother and Stevie's soft spot for her. He went to bed that night thinking about what might have happened if he wouldn't have left or if he would've kissed her back.

"Zander, hand me the raisins." His mother said; bring him out of his thoughts.

As he handed them to her, Cindy could tell something was wrong. "Okay, what's wrong?" She said, carefully mixing the raisins in the batter.

"Nothing," He mumbled, not wanting to explain everything to her. "I just… need some air." Zander said before rushing out of the kitchen and outside. He really needed to clear his head and he knew exactly who he needed to see.

Nelson was in the middle of a video game when he heard the front door open. Assuming it was Grace coming home from her afternoon class, he didn't take his eyes off the TV, but when he heard a familiar voice comment on how something's never change, he instantly looked towards the door making his character lose. "Thanks, Zander, I was on level 7 and that was my last life." He moaned, throwing the remote on the ground.

"And I repeat. Something's never change." He chuckled, sitting next to him and propping his feet up on the coffee table. "Grace actually lets you play!"

Nelson shrugged. "I have to turn it off as soon as she gets home, but it's all good." He said while turning the game system off and putting the remote back in its holder. "So, what are you doing here and how'd you get in?"

"Your door was unlocked." He explained. "And I need your help."

"What kind of help?"

Zander looked down at his hands. "It's not really help. It's more like I need you to listen and not judge which I don't know if it's something you can judge me… but anyways."

"Just spill it, Z."

"I told Stevie I still liked her!" Zander said, the words just spilling out of him.

Nelson jumped in his seat making his orange soda spill in his lap. "What!"

"Well, I sort of told her."

"She has a boyfriend." Nelson whispered even though there was no one around.

Zander buried his face in his hands and nodded. "I know. I know."

"What did she say?"

"Nothing,"

"You can tell me." Nelson said.

The brunette shook his head. "No, she said nothing."

"Brutal."

"I know. What should I do?" Zander asked.

Nelson sighed before standing up and walking into the bedroom only to return minutes later with an old box in his hands. "Stevie is one of my best friends and I don't want to see her get hurt."

"I would never…"

"I know, Zander." Nelson reassured before continuing. "If you charge at her like a love sick puppy, she will be the one that ends up hurt." He placed the box in Zander's lap.

"What's this?"

"Seven years. You missed seven years of her life."

Zander lowered his gaze. Not wanting to look his friend in the eyes. "So…?"

"You need to catch up. There's something's you don't know about and you need to know these before going after her."

This made Zander curious. Whatever was in this box was going to help him get Stevie back, but as what?

Like usual, Kacey and Stevie spent all of Saturday watching Keisha as well as Lifetime movies, but unlike usual, Stevie decided on a lovey dovey movie. This only made Kacey more suspicious. "What happened?"

Stevie shook her head and shifted her body so that she was lying across the coach, looking in her friend's direction. "Nothing happened."

"Did Mark break up with you?"

"What! No!" She protested, sitting up so that she could get a better look at Kacey. "Why would you think that?"

"You're acting like you just got dumped."

"Am not!"

Kacey folded her arms and glared at her friend before pointing to the ice cream bowl next to Stevie's place on the couch. "You've had two bowls since we started this movie thirty minutes ago. It was your turn to pick a movie and you pick the sappiest movie in my collection, Girl. Something's wrong."

Stevie sighed in defeat. "Look, Zander may have told me he still… likes me." Stevie confessed, mumbling the last few words.

"What?" Kacey asked in disbelieve, but before she could ask something else, Stevie got a phone call and Keisha started crying. "This isn't over." She said before rushing off to get her daughter.

When she finally came back, Stevie was in tears while putting her jacket on. "I have to go." She explained, acting like everything was fine and Kacey didn't want to question it.

A/N Oh my… that chapter sucked. I'm so sorry you had to read that. This was like a filler chapter and next one will be great. I promise! But seriously, I started this over like six times and it still turned out sucky. Well, please review anyways and tell me what you thought of the whole Love Song promo.
