I was shocked. I still can't believe it Harley has a boyfriend. Harley the girl that I've known since we were little kids. The one with the bite me attitude. The tough girl that would never admit but loves all of us like sisters. The girl that almost broke a guys arm because he looked at her the wrong when he asked her to prom. Wait… what? Focus Connor. Harley the girl that annoys the crap out of you yet you still love her to death. Yes, that girl. She has a boyfriend.

Ok, I know what you're thinking. Connor you were the one that wanted her to just date James already. Yes, I know but that's because they are so cute together. I mean they were perfect Harley's attitude was just perfect to keep James in check. Plus the fact she's always flirting with James is what shocks me. Harley may be a rebel but she never would flirt with a guy when she had a boyfriend.

One thing for sure whoever this Dave guy was I already did not approve.

"Connor, earth to Connor." Mandi said poking my check. "Huh?" I asked turning towards her staring at her finger as it threatened to poke me again. "Come on Connor you can't sit in front of the Television all day. I mean for pete sakes it's not even on." She said throwing her arms in the arm.

I shook my head and looked at Mandi and then the clock. Holly snapples… it was noon. I've staring at a blank TV for 3 hours. Then again my mind was lost in thought. I've been doing that a lot since I went from 14 to 20. I mean I know I use to zone out but that was because I would be writing a new script or thinking up my newest thinking on how to edit my newest short film. Now it was like I was almost living someone else's life.

"Connor, you're doing it again." Mandi huffed. "Hurry up we were suppose to be down stairs 20 minutes ago. " She said as she threw clothes at my face. Right going to meet Harley's Boyfriend… yuck. And I personal get the fun of alone with the new couple. "Whatever" I mumbled as I went off to change.

I mean after all I was the only one that single. Scar was still dating Carlos which was so cute and Mandi had almost made Logan a complete Hippie. Harley of course had Dave. What about Kendall and I you ask. Well we really haven't talked since our day of almost kisses. Though one thing has changed since that day.

I finally admitted that I really like Kendall. I mean really like him. The time apart made me realize how empty I feel without his smile lighten up the room, or how his eyes are always so bright and full of kindness, and when ever he wraps his arms around me I feel warmth spread through me as butterflies fly around in my tummy.

I sighed, looking at Mandi silently asking if I really had to do this. None of them liked Dave. He was sketchy ever since high school. He would always have a new girl on his arm ever month and he never be single for more then a month. Plus he dated multiple girls at the same time more then once.

Sadly Mandi nodded and opened the hotel door. I mumbled how I didn't want to do this as I followed my blonde friend out the door. I grumbled pulling at my shirt. "You get to go on a date with Logan while I'm stuck with bonding with the new love birds."

"Hey it's like a quadupale date." Mandi said in defense. "Yeah, except I don't have a date and you will spend most of your time making lovey dovey eyes at Logan." I said crossing my arms over my chest. "Oh stop pouting it's not my fault your man's sick." Mandi said forcefully uncrossing my arms.

"Hey, first off Kendall is not my man. Were just friends…" "Friends that are madly in love with each other." Mandi said cutting me off. "Just friends and I just never really liked Dave. He was one of the biggest jerks ever." I said, yet I felt like there was something more to it.

"None of us do. Yet, unlike you I care about how Harley feels and if he makes her happy, no matter how much I dislike him, I approve." Mandi said calmly. "Yeah but…" I tried to speak but Mandi gave me that look which made me freak. I huffed and stomped out of the elevator as soon as the doors opened.

"Well someone's a pocket full of sunshine. Huh, Connor?" A deep voice called. Some girls might of said it sounded smooth but it sounded like snakes to me. My glare landed on the person the voice belonged to. He was pretty tall and had no muscle to speak of. The hair that always seemed to fall right was all over and his gray eyes seemed like stone. Now it looks like he was hit with an ugly stick since high school.

I scoffed and rolled my eyes. Which earned me a glare from Harley. I sighed and said hello through grit teeth. Harley's glare lessened but it was still there. Eventually she stopped when Dave gave her a small smile. Which looked like the jokers if you asked me.

"Anyway I was thinking we go to Panera Bread and talk for a bit." Harley said taking Dave's hand in her own. "Sure babe." He mumbled before… I dare not even say… kissing her. I gagged, thankfully no one noticed. I can't believe that thing even touched her.

It was a nice day so everyone wanted to walk. Everyone but yours truly. I just wanted this to be over with. As we walked the streets of L.A. I saw that the years haven't only mad Dave's look worse. As we were walking he checked out every girl mumbling if she was a 10. He almost stopped asking for one of there numbers.

Yet, I was the only one the noticed. Scar and Mandi were too busy with their boyfriends to notice and Harley just ignored it. It was too weird. This was not Harley. When we went on the tour and James joked about other girls she smacked him. And they were only friends… or at least that's what she said.

We didn't reach Panera soon enough. I almost beat the crap out of Dave on many occasions. It only got worse when we got noticed. He winked and gave people his signature even though no one asked. He was no one, just some guy that's lucky enough to be dating a famous person.

I sighed and sat down as soon as we got in the restaurant. Mandi finally noticing something other then Logan raised an eyebrow at me. "I'm not feeling to well. I don't have an appetite." I mumbled. She shrugged it off probably thinking I got it from Kendall and deciding a way to tease me about it later.

I grumbled as my forehead touch the cool surface of the table. "Well you're just bright and dandy." That annoying voice said. I looked up at him glaring the best I could from behind all the hair in front of my face. "Shouldn't you be buying lunch?"

"Oh Harley is taking care of that." Dave said with a sly smirk. His making her order; let alone pay for his food. What kind of a man is he? "Listen Connor I know we haven't talked in a while. I just wanted to make sure you remembered our deal." I looked at him raising an eyebrow.

"Oh don't give me that look." He hissed getting too close. "Now we don't want Harley to hear about your little accident do we?" He said with a smirk. I was so confused. "Stop playing dumb or else I'll let Harley know everything. I still how the recording. How you almost got us together but at last second took me for yourself. You needed to get over Brain somehow."

My heart began to break. I knew something wasn't right with him. I just knew it. I can't remember, but I suddenly feel sick. I nodded letting him know that I understood even if I didn't. "Good. We'll talk tomorrow ok." I nodded again before I got up. I just needed to get out of here.

I walked out the door without even saying goodbye to anyone. I was having a serious headache and I felt like I was going to puke. I didn't trust my legs so I hailed a cab to take me bake to the hotel. The pounding in my head only got worse. As soon as he let me out I ran to the trash can.

I've never been so sick before in my life. I turned to pay the guy his money but he was already gone. Probably thought I was really sick and didn't want to risk it. I sighed and walked to the front doors. My head was one fire. It felt like someone dropped kicked it. I could barley walked a straight line to the couch.

I fell onto the couch before my vision became dark.

*FLASHBACK*

I smiled as we finished up the last scene. I swear this was going to be my best short film yet. I yelled cut telling everyone good job as I turned off my video camera. "Remember cast party at Jessica's." I shouted as I went to pack up all the other stuff around the set. It wasn't really that bad of a clean up. 20 minutes at most.

I was shocked though to see someone had stayed behind. And more because who it was. "Hey C." Dave said as he walked over. "Dave what are you still doing here I thought you would be one of the first to leave." I said shocked.

"Well I'd just like to thank you for opening up my eyes to how awesome your friend Harley is. I mean she is fine and has a attitude that actually keeps me interested. "He said whistling as he got closer. "Oh well movies bring people together." I mumbled backing up and tripping on my own two feet in the process.

"Here C" He said holding out his hand. "Against my better judgment I took it. "See I'm not such a bad guy." Dave said flashing a smile full of a weird emotion I couldn't point out. It was like he wanted something. Yet he never looked me in the eyes.

"Yeah, learned that from the movie. Guess Harley was right about you. Plus you guys make a cute couple." I said scratching the back of my neck nervously. "Yeah, it thanks to your work I noticed. I mean the handsome hero and the girl were did you get it from." He asked getting closer. I tried to back up but his grip on my hand was too strong.

"Well, it just came to me." I laughed nervously. "Yeah, and you made me the hero. The girls name being Ann-Marie how obvious can you be C. Admit it, you picked me to play out a fantasy in your head about the two of us." He said he face only three inches away from mine.

"If that's true why wasn't I the lead?" I barley managed to ask. "Simple." He said whispering in my ear. "You didn't want to be too obvious. It gives it away. What director cast themselves as the lead. No one." His lips were just hovering over mine now.

"What about Harley? She really likes you and you said you liked her?" I mumbled out. "Oh you too can share." He said before he closed the gap. It felt wrong, I almost puked in my mouth. Though he pulled away when he heard a gasp.

I cringed thinking it was Scar, Mandi, or even possilbly Harley. But it was worse much much worse. "Con… Connor?" Brain asked stunned as he let go of the girl next to him hand. I gulped. Of course Brain happens upon the lowest moment of my life.

"Oh you must be Brain. I'm Dave" Dave said putting his arm around my shoulder. I was too shocked to say anything. "Yeah, who are you?" Brain asked looking mad. Like he had the right. Brain was the jerk that cheated on me. I thought I loved him.

"Oh Connor's boyfriend. Isn't that right sweetheart." Dave said looking down at me. I didn't think I just nodded I wanted this over with and this seemed the only way out. Brain huffed not believing. Then Dave kissed me again. Yet I didn't stop him like before. I wanted to hurt Brain like he hurt me. I heard I growl and then the soft decrescendo of steps.

I pulled away from Dave wiping my mouth with disgust. "You're just as big of a jerk as I thought." I growled yanking away from him. "You're the one that let me kiss you twice." He said with a big smirk. I growled he knows why I did what I did. "Whatever, stay away from my friends." I growled stomping away.

"No will do." He called. I turned around giving him the glares of all glares. "Why is that?" I asked crossing my arms. "Simple I don't want to plus how is Harley going to react once she hears about this?" He said a evil smile gracing his face.

I scoffed. "I'll tell her the truth she understand." "Not so simple, you see your not the only one with a video camera." He said as he pulled one out that was hidden behind a tree. "You see I have this whole incident recorded. Who is Harley going to believe you or a video?" I growled, this can't be. "You won't be showing her the whole thing."

"Sweet, simple, not so innocent Connor. I won't need to she only needs to see you agreeing about being my girlfriend after I said you and Harley could share me." Said patting my shoulder. I was at a lose for words. This can't be it. I'm one of Harley's best friends she believe me right. Right?

Man this is so confusing. I don't know what to do. "Listen Connor, I want to make a deal. We'll never mention this incident. And if you do, this goes to facebook and everyone will see how you betrayed one of your closest friends." He said with a smirk. "Harley deserves better." I grumbled. "Oh don't worry I won't do anything bad to her. Just take her out for a week until I find something hotter. I'll do you a favor and I won't even go pass second base." He said circling me holding the camera in front of my face the whole time. "Now do we have a deal?" He said holding out his hand. I sighed and shook it. "Deal"

*FLASHBACK*

Sweat was running down my back, goose bumps were everywhere and I felt like my heart was racing a mile a minute. That was horrible. How could I do something so awful to Harley? The worst part is I know Dave is a jerk who's only going after Harley until something better comes and I can't do anything about it.

I feel sick. I close my eyes letting tears fall. I'm a horrible person. How can I look anyone in the eyes knowing what I know? Oh poor James. His hearts broken because of a jerk who doesn't even like his girl. I just can't do this anymore.

"Connor, are you ok?" I hear the sweetest of all voices ask me. Yet, I can't even look at him now. I don't deserve his concern or friendship after what I've done.

"Connor?" I saw a small glimpse of caring green eyes before I passed out.

Yeah, I know been forever blah blah blah. Thought you were dead blah blah blah. You survived the ACT... LIES! Word to the wise you do not want to be a junior in high school any time soon. It's not fun. So instead of lame excuse why I haven't posted I'll just say. I is lazy. Sorry.

Any way don't own Panera Bread. Blah blah. What did you think? Will you every look at Connor the same way again? What will happen next? Honestly a little writer's block on what Kendall will say when she wakes up and stuff so pm or write a review on what they conversation will be like. I'll give create to helping in next chapter. Anyway of you have any cool ideas just let me know. Oh and before I forget
