Ashleigh walked to AJ's lockeroom and knocked on the door. She didn't hear anything so, she opened the door and saw Christy crying in to AJ's chest. Ashleigh rushed over to her 2 friends.

"Oh my god Chris what's wrong?" Ashleigh said sitting down on the bench.

"I went to break up with Lance, and he went ballistic" Christy said looking at Ashleigh

"Well he's a jerk that doesn't deserve you" Ashleigh said putting a hand on her shoulder.

Christy gave Ashleigh a smile and hugged her. "Thanks Ash"

"No problem. Ok tonight it's me, you and the girls. Eating junk food, and watching movies" Ashleigh said.

"What about your date with Alex?" Christy asked.

"What date with Alex?" AJ asked.

Ashleigh let out a laugh. "Well I'm supposed to go out to dinner with Alex, but I'll tell him what happened and he will understand. We can reschedule"

"You don't have to do that" Christy said.

"I don't have to, but I will. You're my friend and you need me right now. So no if's, and's or buts" Ashleigh replied.

"Are you sure?" Christy asked.

"I'm positive" Ashleigh replied.

Christy gave Ashleigh another hug. "I feel a lot better, thanks guys"

"You're welcome. I'm gonna go see if I can find Alex and explain to him what happened" Ashleigh said standing up.

"K, I'll see you later" Christy said.

"Definitely. AJ can I talk to you for a sec?" Ashleigh said.

"Yea sure. I'll be right back Christy. Lock the door" AJ said following Ashleigh out of the lockeroom.

"What's up?" AJ asked.

"Umm...well" Ashleigh stuttered out.

"What's wrong?" AJ said.

"I was talking to Jay in his lockeroom earlier, and he kinda said that he loved me" Ashleigh said.

"He what?" AJ said sounding suprised.

"He said that he loved me" Ashleigh said repeating herself.

"And you believed him?" AJ asked.

"Well..." Ashleigh said looking at AJ.

"Ashleigh, don't believe anything he says, Especially that" AJ said.

"How was I supposed to react AJ? He broke down in front of me, and I just walked away" Ashleigh said leaning against the wall.

"You had a right to walk way. He abused you" AJ replied.

Ashleigh sighed. "But that look he had in his eyes when he told said that, I could see that he was truly sorry"

"Ashleigh listen to me. Even though he looked like he was sorry, it doesnt mean he really meant it" AJ said.

"How do you know?" Ashleigh replied.

Listen. I've known Jay for a long time. He only wants you back just to play with your heart again!" AJ screamed.

"He could be honest!" Ashleigh screamed back.

"Oh I doubt it!" AJ protested.

"I can't believe I'm hearing this! I'm leaving!" Ashleigh yelled walking out. AJ was going to protest but Ashleigh ran down the hall away from him. AJ sighed as he turned toward his door. Christy was in there waiting for him. He walked in and smiled at her. Christy looked back and smiled at him.

"Are you feeling any better?" AJ asked.

"A little. Thanks." Christy said smiling. "What was the yelling about?"

"Oh, that was nothing" AJ replied.

"You sure?" Christy asked.

"Yea" AJ replied.

Christy gave him a smile before kissing his cheek. AJ returned the smile.

Ashleigh had ran down the hall to nowhere in particular. She turned the corner and ran in to something or someone hard. She looked up in to the eyes of Jay. "Whoa, what's wrong?"

Jay helped Ashleigh up. "Nothing. I was just talking to AJ, and we sorta got in an argument"

"About what?" Jay asked.

"You" Ashleigh replied.

"Me?" Jay said.

"Yea" Ashleigh said.

Jay looked at her confused. "Ash about earlier. I'm sorry"

"For what?" Ashleigh asked.

Jay stood there silent and looked at the floor. Ashleigh grabbed his chin and made his eyes meet hers. "It's ok, really. Let's just agree to be friends, and we'll be in each others lives"

Jay looked at her and placed a kiss on her lips. Ashleigh hesitated, but didn't pull back right away. She had to admit, she missed the taste of his kisses, but then the thought of Alex popped in her mind and she pulled away. "I can't do this Jay. It doesn't feel right. We're broken up remember"

Jay looked at her. "What's so wrong about it?"

"Everything about it" Ashleigh replied.

Ashleigh saw the tears once again for in Jay's eyes as she kissed his cheek and walked away.

Alex shook his head in disbelief and couldn't believe what he had just seen. The chances of him and Ashleigh had gone down the drain.
