Amya slipped books into her locker. She looked into her mirror. She saw her face red from running. Her make-up was sweated off. She went in her pocket and reapplied it. She smiled in the mirror trying to see through the hurt. As she glanced behind her she saw a dark figure. Maybe she too was hiding from the hurt behind her heavy make-up. She recognized her as Ashley. She turned to her biting her lip. Ashley walked closer.

"I just wanted to say I'm sorry for acting like a weirdo the other day," Ashley smiled. Amya smiled back.

"It's okay," Amya said accepting the apology. "I've been going through a lot and what I need right now is a friend to talk too," Amya said sweetly. Ashley nodded as she held out her hand.

"Ashley," She said starting over. Amya chuckled a little as she shook her hand.

"Amya"

Emma rushed to find Sean hoping he was alone. He then spotted him talking to Spinner and Marco. Emma quickly stopped to chat.

"Sean! Where have you been?" Emma said smiling. Sean's eyebrows slanted.

"Um, right here," Sean replied. Emma chuckled.

"Right um, what are you doing Friday?" Emma said still grinning. Sean shrugged.

"Um, noth-" the bell interrupted his answer. "I'll talk to you later," Sean said walking away. Emma nodded as she ran to find Manny.

"Emma!" Manny called. Emma turned around to find Manny. "Emma, I want you to take this quiz!" Manny said handing her a piece of paper which looks like a printed out quiz from the internet.

"Quiz of Match Making," Emma read as she made a face. Emma slammed the paper onto Manny's hands. Emma started to walk away. Manny followed.

"Emma, this will let you know if you and Sean are the real match," Manny explained. Emma rolled her eyes.

"It will let me know nothing Manny, it's garbage!"

"You need an opinion just take it!" Manny said tucking the paper between Emma's chest and books. Emma shook her head as she carried it into homeroom.

"The new girls style isn't that bad," Paige whispered to Hazel as they walked to their lunch table. Hazel nodded.

"Their cute," Hazel agreed as they sat at the table with Jimmy Spinner. Paige looked at the three.

"I'll uh, be right back," Paige smiled scrunching up her face. She walked over to Amya and tapped on her shoulder, disturbing her from the conversation with Ashley. Amya turned around. Paige grinned.

"Paige Michalchuk," Paige held out her hand. Amya bit her lip as she shook it.

"Amya Lilac," she smiled. Paige's smile fell into an evil frown as her eyes narrowed, she let go of her hand. Paige folded her arms.

"So your Amya," Paige sneered. Amya nodded nervously. "Let's forget this ever happened cause I would hate to live my life in total humiliation," Paige said walking off to her table. Amya turned to Ashley.

"Am I the hated one?" Amya said looking over her shoulder at Paige then back at Ashley.

"Paige isn't the nicest person," Ashley said.

"I noticed," Amya nodded. Ashley tried smiling as she walked over to the table where Craig, Ellie and Marco sat.

"Hey guys," Ashley grinned. They all started to talk up a storm. Amya just tuned out. She looked around at all the people. All the students. As she caught a glimpse of Sean she fell into a daze. She wished they could be somewhere alone where they could really talk without any interruption. Amya sharply gasped. Ashley looked in he direction.

"You okay?" Ashley asked. Amya looked at Ashley.

"Throw a party Ashley!" Amya yips. Ashley shakes her head.

"Okay. this idea came from where?" Ashley asked confused.

"Throw a party, get Sean to go." Amya said hoping Ashley would get the rest. Ashley rolled her eyes.

"Sean has a girlfriend and mom and Jeff would never let me throw a party," Ashley explained. "Not after what happened at the last one," Ashley finished.

"C'mon Ash! Please try! I really like Sean and I know he still has feelings for me!" Amya begs.

"Maybe, I'll ask and get back to you over the phone. No drinking. No drugs. No sex," Ashley said laying down the rules.

"Darn Ashley, you ruined it for us," Craig joked.

"Craig," Ashley rolled her eyes. "I'll beg but I know my mom she's a total life-ruiner!"

"Great! Thanks Ash!" Amya said walking away. Ashley sat there confused.

"Party at Ashley's" Marco chuckled.

"Marco, who said you are invited?" Ashley joked.

"Ha-ha.. I am invited right?" Marco looked around the table. Ashley rolled her eyes.
