Author's Note: Thanks to the reviewers especially Kelzery. Make sure you email me that 17 excerpt. Hey did you read the one that was in the December 2000 issue. I found out a few weeks ago that it was an excerpt from Princess in Love too. I think in the real book that Michael and Mia will probably get together a little easier than you think, but not so easy as most think (don't worry guys, I'm guilty of this too). Definitely not right after this game that he shows her.
Mia's Diary
Kenny is one of the best guy friends a girl can have!!!
So Tina told me that if I wanted to make things right with Michael, that it would be a good idea if I broke it off with Kenny. So I went up to the Japanese Anime Booth and asked if I could talk to him privately.
Me: Kenny, could I speak to you for a minute, alone?
Go assertiveness, Go!
Kenny: Sure Mia.
We walked over and sat on a bench near the Computer Club booth.
Kenny: What did you want to talk about?
Me: This is hard. You're a great friend and all, Kenny, its just that...well...
Come on, assertiveness, don't fail me now...What was I thinking...when has it not failed me?
Kenny: Mia, are you saying that you want to break up?
I was shocked. He didn't seem mad or sad.
Me: Well, yeah. Are you mad?
Kenny: No, Mia, not at all. To tell you the truth, I feel the same way. You're a great friend, but nothing more. I only asked you out because my parents keep on pressuring me into getting a girlfriend, and so you're the only girl I know pretty well. I thought I would ask you out.
Me: But what about those letters?
Kenny: Well at first I thought that I liked you, but soon after we started going out I realized I didn't. I didn't break it off because I didn't want to hurt you. Can I ask you a question?
Me: Sure.
Kenny: You like someone else don't you?
Me: Yeah.
Kenny: Could that somebody be a certain friend of mine named Michael Moscovitz.
Me: Oh my God! How'd you know?
Kenny: I'm not dense, Mia. It was a bit obvious, at least to me. I don't think he realized you liked him as much as he likes you.
Mia: Well, since we're friends now and all, do you think you could help me get me and Michael together?
Kenny: Sure what did you have in mind?
Michael's Diary (Online)
THE MORNING AFTER THE CARNIVAL
Man, am I ever a wreck? I'm supposed to tutor Mia today for her test on Monday and the dance is later tonight, and I yet again don't have a date. I don't know if I'm even going to go. Mia will be there, probably with Kenny. I don't even know if she's even going to come to tutoring. Hang on the telephones ringing.
TEN MINUTES LATER
It was Mia on the phone. She asked me if I would still tutor her today and of course I said yes. I wouldn't pass up a chance to see her, even if I did blow any chance I had with her last night. I didn't even think she was going to come, after what happened yesterday. She said Mr. Gianini had a special CD-ROM game that we could play to help her in Math.
