Disclaimer: You know the routine.

A/N: For all you people that are actually reading this, I left you peoples with a really crappy cliffhanger. (I told you I wasn't a good) Okay, Bobby Drake just asked Val out. Let's see what she says.

            "Um… uh… I-I'd …" Val stammered. She was put on the spot and didn't know what to say. She was still hoping that Tyler would ask her, but if he didn't it might be too late to find a guy as great as Bobby. He was a sweet guy, but not as perfect as Tyler. Tyler's not going to ask me out. He's right there asking Heather to the dance, she thought, glancing at Tyler. "I-I'd love to go with you," she finally said, looking at Bobby. She hugged him.

            Tyler saw them hug and his heart was broken. He knew Bobby had asked her out and sadly, she said yes. He had lost another chance at her. That bastard. Why does it always happen to me? Why am I in love with a girl who will never love me back? Tyler didn't want to seem like a fool so he asked Heather to the prom. Of course, she said yes.

Caitie, Jamie, and Hank were all watching from a distance. Caitie and Hank were disappointed in Val and Tyler. They tried their best to play matchmaker, but it just didn't work. Jamie, meanwhile, was laughing his head off. He found it hilarious that his two friends loved each other but were too scared to tell one another.

"You're late, Jamie," Alex shouted from his office. Alex was in charge of the EMT station the kids volunteered at. Jamie, Val, Tyler, and Hank were all EMTs. Brooke, Val's sister, also volunteered at the station as the Queen of Paperwork.

"Sorry Alex. I was in detention with Caitie," Jamie replied. Jamie was the rebel without a cause type of guy. He was only an EMT because of his probation.

"So Jamie, I heard you're taking Caitie to the prom," Val teased. She was sitting on a couch in the lounge. Jamie was Caitie's second best friend (Val being the first).

"How'd you find out?" Jamie asked.

"I'm a psychic… plus she just called me.

"Speaking of the prom," Hank called from the table in the kitchen," Who are you going with Tyler?" Val suddenly lifted her eyes off the book she was reading and focused them Tyler. She went back to reading, although she was listening to the guys' conversation.

"Heather Stillmore," Tyler answered quietly, feeling very uncomfortable.

"Who?" Jamie asked, trying to rub it in. He saw Tyler giving him dirty looks, but he just brushed him off.

"Heather Stillmore!" he said a little bit more louder. Hank and Jamie stared at Tyler in disbelief and confusion. Val was still staring at her book but she was thinking about how lucky Heather was.

"But I thought you were going to…" Jaime began. He was cut off by Hank, who threw an empty soda bottle at him to shut him up.

"That reminds me," Val said lifting herself off the couch. She had been quiet throughout the entire conversations, so the guys were surprised when she began to talk. " What were you going to ask me Tyler?" Val walked to the mirror on the wall and began to fix her hair, looking at each of the guys through the mirror. Hank and Jamie were looking at Tyler for an answer. Tyler just sat there, trying to figure out an answer too.

A/N: Another sucky cliffhanger!!!!!! Well, just wait for the next chapter to see what he's going to do.
