Matt walked back upstairs, and even past the bathroom. I heard a knock at the door and yelled at whoever it was to go away.


Laura knew it. She knew my secret. I hadn't told anyone. I had liked Matt ever since the first day I met him, and I was too scared to tell anyone. Especially Frankie, since he and Matt were like best friends. I had always treated Matt like a friend, but now it was getting hard. Laura really did know me. She knew things without me telling her them. I tried to get Frankie to take me to rehearsal whenever he could, so I could see Matt. I gave him the excuse that I was getting more interesting in his band. It was a lame excuse, but most of the time it worked. He must have been getting sick of having me there all the time, because he had just yelled at me for always wanting to go. I couldn't tell him the truth, I couldn't tell him I liked his best friend. After he yelled at me, I went into my room and I cried.


Now there was someone at my door. They knocked again, and I yelled for them to go away again.


"Stacey, it's Matt, can I come in?" He asked.


I gasped and quickly wiped my tears away. "Um..yeah, come in, Matt," I said.


Matt opened the door, and stepped in. He shut the door behind him and said, "Are you alright? Why did you run out of Frankie's room before?"


"Oh, nothing, it's just that Frankie won't take me to rehearsal with you guys today," I said.


Matt shook his head and laughed. "Don't listen to Frankie. You can come to rehearsal with us if you want. Besides..it IS my car we're taking,"


"Are you sure?" I said and bit my lip.


"Of course!" Matt replied.


"Can Laura come too?" I asked.


"Sure..?" Matt asked, with a confused look on his face.


"You don't know?" I asked.


"No..?" Matt asked, still confused.


"She's going out with Jesse!" I laughed.


Matt's face dropped. "Oh, my God! Are you serious?"


I laughed. "Yeah,"


"Well, I guess that would be alright," he said.


"Okay, good!" I said. Matt and I walked out of my room and across the hall to Laura's room. I knocked on the door. "Laura! Do you wanna go to rehearsal and see Jesse?" I yelled.


Laura opened her door and looked out at Matt and I. She gave me a weird look. "Of course!"


"Well then hurry up, because we're leaving," I said.


Laura, Matt and I went downstairs to get Frankie.
