A/n: Thanks so much guys for all the positive feedback. It's really kept me going with the story! In response to some of your questions, namely Starangelrini, I've never seen Sailor Moon before. Sorry! I'm thinking of making a Landon POV to go with it, as another story. What's everyone think? Make sure to review and put in your vote!!


After my Doctors visit, I threw my bag down and ran up the steps to my room. Daddy came in and asked me what was wrong, and I knew right then I would have to lie to my father. It felt horrible, but I did, telling him that I was just tired and worried about my math grade.

So I didn't completely lie to his face, I only left out all the details of math class. It pained me to think it, but Daddy would never understand. I knew that he worried about the fact Landon was over at all, and I knew what he thought of him. Telling my father that I had feelings towards Landon, even in just a friend way, well, telling him that, I could just see his head explode.

My Dad has had so much pressure on him lately; dealing with my problems is the last thing he needs. I didn't know how I would go to school the next day. After the humiliation that accrued before, I didn't feel I could show my face. I'd never been more hurt during one simple hour before. And it wouldn't be crazy to think that I had never been hurt more in my entire life.

"Jamie... I love you....I'm just asking for the same thing you teach us...and that's faith.....I need help with my lines...do you love me?...I got you something... What's you're number 1?...I'm not going anywhere..I had it named for you...its official, its from the star registry...Are you scared?....It's not funny....You're 18..You're perfect....this is about me. this is not you....will you go out with me on Saturday night?.....You're in two places at once....Love is always patient and kind.....Will you marry me?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~

My eyes flew open as I tried to register what was going on. I looked around, surprised to find myself still in my room. I glanced down at the Bible still on my lap. I must have fallen asleep, but nothing could explain that dream. My head was spinning yet again that week.

I shook off the strange dream and climbed out of bed, going downstairs. Daddy was sitting in a chair next to the piano, reading a book.

"Hi Daddy" I said, slipping into the bench in front of the piano. Daddy acknowledged me, but he was deep into his book. I started to tap out the beat to a song I was working on for the play, when suddenly the doorbell rang.

Daddy and I both looked up-- I had told him Landon wasn't coming today, and we weren't expecting company. Dad started to stand to get the door.

"Stay Daddy, I'll get it" I told him, and he smiled in thanks.

I opened the door and saw Landon standing there an unsure look on his face. My welcoming smile was instantly gone. What did he think he was doing here? I pondered this and realized I didn't want to hear what he had to say. The second I saw him open his mouth like he was going to say something, I shut the door in his face.

I think it hurt me more than it hurt him. He banged on the door, and I heard him call out.

"Come on Jamie! Open the door, please!"

I sighed and ripped the door open, making him backup in shock as I stepped out onto the porch, closing the door behind me.

"Woah..." I heard him mutter.

"What do you want?" I asked bluntly.

"You're not in a good mood" Landon replied, in a semi-shocked tone. I laughed slightly, but my tone stayed harsh.

"You don't miss a thing" I stated.

"Look Jamie I was hoping we could run lines together" he told me.

"Okay, just not so anybody knows right?" I countered. Did he think he could weasel his way out of this? Landon Carter did not care I was hurt, he cared about himself, and what he would look like on stage when the curtains were lifted on opening night.

"I just figured we could surprise everyone with how good I get" he said smoothly.

*UNBELIEVEBLE!* I thought to myself. *You think you're so cool don't you Carter??!!*

I smiled big and laughed slightly once more. "Like we could be secret friends?!?" I asked, pretending to understand.

"Exactly! Exactly, its like you're reading my mind!" Landon replied, smiling now, thinking he was in the clear. I smiled along with him.

"Great! Um, maybe you could read mine!" I dropped my happy face and gave him the nastiest look I could, holding it for a minute. Than I turned to go back inside, intent on leaving him out here.

"Look, Jamie, I can't just be your friend!!" He called out to me before I could shut the door.

"Landon look, I thought I saw something in you. Something good. But I was very wrong" I said. With another steely gaze, I shut the door in his face, and the sound of the latch clicking was final. Even he knew that.

I knew I should have been more forgiving. But the fact he never apologized, and that he expected me to forget it on the spot, that helped me not to feel so bad about what I did. Two words and I *would* have forgotten about it. Was I'm sorry so hard to say?? Oh but this was Landon Carter, which meant admitting he was wrong would be more impossible than anything in the world. And it hurt my heart to know that.
