A/N: Again, thanks for all of your kind reviews! After this chapter 4, I'm going to start to add multiple chapters at one time, so it might take a while before you actually see some more chapters. But I'll try my best! :) Oh, and I also forgot to mension, this chapter's going to be short. Just to warn you! :P

I Feel Your Pain
-The Zen Garden-
I sit and stare at the ground. I watch a leaf blow accross the sidewalk. I listen to the coversations going on inside the school. I wipe my tears away and rub them on my jeans. I hear the door open in the distance. Who could it be this time?
Paige walks around the corner and sees me.
"Manny, I know what you're going through."
"How?"
"Well, remember last year when that guy Dean from Bardell came to our school, and I totally warned you about him?"
"Yeah.."
She pauses for a second, then sits next to me.
"Well, the reason I did was because.. He.. He raped me."
My heart drops. Paige, raped? How could this be true?
"Really?" I look into her hazel eyes.
"Yeah. So I know how you feel about having no one to talk to."
I look back down and I think for a second.
"How about this."
She turns her body and faces me.
"You and I have a latte at the Dot after school. It will cheer you up, and later we can hang at my house."
I smirk and Paige looks under at my face.
"Did I just see a smile? C'mon. It's called, 'Caffine Therapy'."
I look up at her and nod.
"Then it's a deal. I'll see you around 3:00, ok?"
"Yeah, thanks Paige!"
She pats my leg.
"No problem, hun!"

A/N: Told you it was short! But I just wanted to get the fact that Paige was going to help her in this chapter. Hope you guys are enjoying!
Here's a spoiler for all my fans! In the next chapter, Manny finds that Paige can be a helpful resource on coping with the pain and agony of having no one to talk to.
