Wednesday 19th February 2013 –

"So yesterday, I went back to school and caught Mara for a few minutes. I found out who the Harry guy is, but I don't know how you'll take this…" Jerome said quietly.

"Yeah, spit it out Jerry!" Eddie hissed.

"It's Mr Edwards, she wouldn't lie about this."

"Amber cheated on Alfie…with a teacher?!" Nina whispered, obviously annoyed. "But… why?"

"Maybe she recorded the day they go together in her diary!" Eddie suggested. "We could steal it, she'd never notice,"

"Uh, hate to burst your bubble buddy, but…girls always notice when something's wrong." Fabian said, patting his friends shoulder. "But she could've written it down, so we could totally check it out!"

"Who knows if they're even still together, they could've split up…?" Patricia said. "Think about it – how has Mr Edwards been acting in class lately?"

"Patricia had point actually; he gave Johnny Reynolds two detentions because he was a few minutes late for class. The fact is, Johnny had been to see Mr Sweet, he told me." Jerome stated, pointing to Johnny from across the hall.

"Oh, now we definitely know something happened then. He was always the jolly one in class…now he's just mean," Nina muttered.

"We'll see. I'll keep an eye on him; I can read people like a book." Patricia said, and heading off to history, which Mr Edwards taught.

Their only hope was to go back to Amber's house and take another peak at the diary. It had clues in it, plus, maybe it would maybe help them figure out if Alfie knew that Amber had been sneaking around…

"Alfie, are you sure she'll come?" Mara asked anxiously, as she was pressed up against the lockers, Alfie's face inches away from hers.

"Yes, now come on." Alfie said. Soon, they closed the gap between them and it got very heated.

What they didn't know, was that Amber was coming down the hallway, desperately trying to get to her math class since she'd unfortunately spent too much time re touching her make up. She was just making her way around the corner, when she spotted Alfie and Mara, snogging intensely.

"Alfie? Mara?" She choked, close to tears.

"Amber, I swear-"

"No! Leave me alone, we are done!" Amber shouted, but before she could leave, Alfie grabbed her wrist.

"I'm not the bad guy here, you are. You think I wouldn't find out about your little affair with our history teacher? I saw you two together!" Alfie threw in her face. Amber's face grew pale.

"Alfie, I-"

"No see, you're a hypocrite!" Alfie said angrily. "I created this so you could see what it felt like!"

"I broke up with him…the day after Valentine's Day…" Amber whispered.

"Well I don't care! You still knew it would hurt me, you had a boyfriend, had!" Alfie screamed. "Don't even pretend to be sorry!"

"But I am! And you, Mara, how could you do this to me?!"

"Once I realised how it had felt when I was cheated on…I just decided it wasn't right." Mara confessed. "For the record, I always hated you."

And with that, they turned and walked away. Amber was left alone in the middle of the corridor, on the floor crying her heart out as the realisation that no one actually ever liked her.

By lunchtime, the gossip about Amber and Alfie had spread all around school, everybody knew. Some even felt a little sorry for the girl, but mostly for Alfie, after all it was Amber who cheated.

"So it looks like Alfie found out the truth then," Patricia said. "She didn't show up in maths, I'm guessing that's when the showdown happened."

"Yup," Nina said, popping the 'p'. "She devastated, I passed her in the hallway. Ii think she faked a headache."

Just then, there was an announcement.

"Hello students! I would just like to let you know that Joy Mercer's funeral is Friday and is open to everyone. Her dad just wants everyone to attend, that's if you want to. Anyway, the Valentine's Day dance was obviously cancelled on Friday due to the food not have been ordered, so instead if you would like to come along this Friday you are very welcome. That is all."

"You gonna go?" Nina asked.

"I don't know. Dancing was never really my thing…" Patricia mumbled. "It depends I guess. What about you?"

"I'll go, even if Fabian doesn't ask me." Nina giggled, a light blush falling upon her cheeks.

"Oh definitely, if Eddie asks me I'll go."

"Thought you said you weren't bothered?" Nina smirked, picking up a French fry.

"Yeah, well I lied." Patricia laughed and took a sip from her coke. "Were totally going to have to check out Amber's diary again,"

"We can't now! Drama central just when down and now Barbie's going to be stuck in her room with Ben & Jerry's for days…"

"Well, we'll just have to sneak in then, won't we?" Patricia laughed again.

A.N – Another chapter, hope you enjoyed! Now you see that the whole 'Malfie' thing wasn't real, it was just a ploy to get Amber to confess.

You won't believe what I've got in store, just you wait!
