A/N: I'm sticking another chapter in here! Just a quickie describing their leaving homeroom and going to their next classes. It just wouldn't have felt right sticking this at the end of the previous chapter. Oh and I know that Pim is taking bio right now in the show, I don't know what science Keely and Phil are taking so I just put bio in because it makes for a great joke in the next chapter.

Keely rose from her chair. Quickly she dashed out of her homeroom, eager to depart from the extremely awkward Tia situation. She reflected on the occurrences in homeroom… she hadn't assumed people had seen her. She didn't even think about that. Was it a good thing? A bad thing? How many people noticed, anyways?
This question was rapidly answered as she noticed how many people were whispering as she walked by. She lowered her head in… shame? But she couldn't be ashamed of it. They shouldn't even be speaking of it! We're just friends, she thought fiercely, as if the thoughts could make it true. Friends can… kiss each other whenever they want. Now, even to Keely this seemed a little far-fetched. But she just raised her head again and strode down the hall to biology. She wasn't about to fall prey to the curiosity of high school students, not even when they looked up in awe at her rather than whispering behind her back. "Whatever," she muttered as she kept walking.

Phil dashed out of homeroom, delighted to have an excuse to escape Seth's good-cop routine. The bell was never such a welcome sound. Gratefully he almost ran into his locker and pulled out his English books. Apparently people had heard about the kiss incident, because they nodded at him and some went "Yeah Phil!" when he walked past. He just pretended to be utterly confused about all this as he neared his classroom.
We're just friends, he thought easily. They're all just jealous. They want as great of a best friend as I have. Of course he knew this wasn't true, but he ignored his intuitions and took a seat in his English class.

A/N: I am just lovin' the parallels here! They're so much fun! PPP pillows to reviewers. You know how!
