Chapter 1

Every day, Harbor School corridors are busy with chatty teenagers and irate teachers, and today was no exception. But the talk died down when everybody noticed to people at opposite ends of the corridor. Because this was definitely going to be interesting.

The figures walked together, the two sides ready to meet, the bystanders bracing themselves for impact.

"Marissa."

"Summer."

A long pause followed. Everything was still, and the two were staring each other off.

"Yes, and I'm Seth. I'm so glad we've all met, but umm, we've actually got to get my book out of Summer's locker, so as much as I'm enjoying this conversation, we might have to cut it a little short."

The two didn't move.

"Okay, so umm... I might just go then."

Seth walked backwards for a few steps before turning and sprinting to the other end of the corridor. Watched by the rest of the Harbor school population.

"So Summer...what are you doing here?"

"Well Marissa, you may have forgotten, but I go to school here too, and last I checked my locker is also right here."

The crowd oohed as they heard Marissa get torn down off her pedestal. Marissa had a look of disgust on her made-up face as she came back down to earth.

"What are you all looking at? There's nothing to see here, just – get lost!" She shouted at the gathered crowd, before turning on her heel and walking out the door.

The silence was broken by a single laugh, and gradually whispers grouped together, and soon enough the hallway was back to normal.

Summer heard clapping. She turned and saw Seth striding up behind her.

"Wow, that was – impressive. I can see that I have taught you well."

"What Cohen?"

"In all of the years of my knowing you, I have never heard you use sarcasm that well. Obviously, my learn-ed wit has rubbed off onto you."

"Yeah, sure Cohen. How did you hear that anyway? You ran away."

"I was uh... guarding the hallway doors. You know, in case the one with the shiny, shiny legs called for reinforcements."

"I'm sure. Why are you looking at her legs anyway?"

Seth looked down and shook his head. "I just can't win with you."

She turned and fumbled with her keys, trying to find the right one to go in her locker. After trying a few with no luck, she found that it was getting difficult to see. Everything was blurry, and she realised that it was because she was crying. She sat down on the hard floor and put her face in her hands. She heard Seth sliding down beside her and felt his arms embrace her. She limply fell into his arms and poured her tears out.

"Don't let her get to you like this Sum..." Seth whispered into her ear. "She's not worth it."

Summer stopped crying long enough to whisper back "But...I miss her."

She started crying again, and the two sat there until long after everybody was gone.
