I dont own "For Good" by Wicked.

"Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good"

I sang along to "For Good" from the musical Wicked as I pulled into school, sighing as I turned off my car and grabbed my backpack. "Oh what fun," I murmured walking towards the building.

"Andy!" I heard a female call my name, I turned to see Beth running towards me. "Hey! How was your summer?"

"Great! How about your summer?" Beth was one of the people who you could never be mean to, she was too kind-hearted. She played on the volleyball team with me; we had become good friends during the summer training each year.

"Awesome! I started dating this guy on my street!"

"Really? What's his name?"

"Jim!" I giggled, thinking about what it would be like…well I think you know what I mean. "What's so funny?"

"Oh nothing…"

"Did you meet any guys over the summer?"

"Of course! I actually started dating of the new guys, he's gorgeous," I blushed as I thought about the summer I had had with John.

"What's his name?"

I started to say his name, but before anything could come out I felt someone pick me up and twirl me in the air. "Oh my gosh, John!" He laughed and kissed me lightly on the lips. "You scared me. Oh! Beth this is John, my boyfriend." I saw her eye him before nodding in approval.

"Nice to meet you John, I'm Beth, one of Andy's friends. We play volleyball together."

"Nice to meet you, how come I didn't meet you this summer?" he questioned.

"I was busy all summer long!"

"That sucks, what lunch do you And?"

"Depends, which lunch do you have?" I smirked.

"A…"

"What, I have B!" Rolling his eyes he kissed my cheek and left us to go find his first period class. "So?" I started as Beth and I walked towards the building.

"He's hot!"

"I know right!" We laughed and I asked her what her first period was, making sure I wasn't inhibiting her way.

"English…"

"Same!" She smiled and we continued our way to the classroom, talking about our summer; of course I left some major details out.

The first day went better than I had expected; besides having Jessica in all of my classes except for one. Ever since I had left for the week with my parents and the Richmonds we hadn't talked. And I was in no big hurry to start again. Sitting on the bleachers of the football stadium I read "Catcher in the Rye" by J.D. Salinger, trying to pass the time, while John was at football practice. By the time he would be getting out of practice I would be heading to the gym for volleyball practice. I sighed and stopped reading for a few moments, before hearing someone walk up the bleachers and sit next to me, looking up I saw Jessica. "What do you want?" I hissed.

"No need to be rude…"

"I said what do you want?"

"I was just coming to see Ryan play, and then i noticed that you were sitting here by yourself."

"Well let's put it this way, I don't want to talk to you, see you, and hang out with you. You and I are no longer friends. You can sit here but don't expect me to talk to you. I may have accepted the fact that you and Ryan are dating, but not for you; only because he is my very good friend, best friend in fact. I don't have to like it, but I do accept it." She looked taken aback, trying to think of something to say. "You don't have anything to say, because I'm not talking to you."

"You just talked to me." As if an instinct I was glaring at her; if looks could kill, she'd be dead. "I'm just saying."

I noticed that the team was talking a break and skipped down the bleachers towards the field. Leaning against the fence I smirked at John who was walking towards me. "Hey hot stuff, you have a girlfriend?" I joked.

"Yes, but you're hotter than she is," he responded.

"Really, do you think she would care if we left for a few hours?"

"She'd be pissed."

"Oh that's too bad." A smirk played across his lips as he leaned in towards me.

"Yeah, it's terrible." I felt him press his lips against mine, instantly I wrapped my arms around his neck; I could hear the other team members whistling and cat calling, causing me to blush as we parted. "Meet me after practice?"

"I can't I have volleyball."

"I'll wait for you." I smiled in response as he ran back towards the team. Taking a deep breath, I sat on the last bleacher and watched them. I had about five minutes before I had to leave to get ready for practice.

"You really like him?" I heard Jess ask.

"I tol-"

"Listen, you don't have to talk to me, you don't have to like me, but please let me tell you something. I can't keep this from you."

"And what's that?" I hissed.

"I know you probably won't believe me, but the only reason John is dating you-" She stopped and I looked up towards her to see her looking in the direction of the team. They still standing near the fence and John was looking at us, well more towards her. "It's for a bet," she whispered. My head whipped towards her, she had a solemn expression on her face. She wasn't kidding about this. I tried to find the words to say, but I couldn't; my eyes wandered to John who was still staring at us. "I'm so sorry; you don't have to belie-"

"Who told you?"

"Ryan." The tears burned my eyes and I bolted up the bleachers and into the parking lot. I didn't understand why I was so upset, it was only Jessica. She would say anything to try and make me unhappy, right? I slid down the side of the cold concrete wall and pulled my knees to my chest. Slowly I took in deep breaths, trying to calm myself down before practice. I couldn't go in looking like something was wrong. It wouldn't matter though; my team always knew when something was off. I pushed aside every thought of John, Jessica, and Ryan trying to focus. I made my way towards the gym so that I could change before practice. "Andy!"

"Go away Jess."

"Look, I didn't want to upset you; I just thought that you should know. When he told me, I knew I had to tell you. I'm sorry." I smiled at her and nodded.

"Thanks. I appreciate it."
