''Yeah Mac,'' Mac stared wide eyed and speechless as Martin stepped around the corner. ''What gonna happen when Martin finds out?''

''Ma-ma-martin!'' He cried. ''Oh buddy! L-look… I-it's not what it looks like.''

''Look,'' Martin sighed, as he saw the pleading look in Mac's eyes. ''Just get out of my sight coz the urge of punching you is coming on strong,'' Mac took of down the hall, Vincent about to follow but Martin grabbed him by his collar. ''And you,'' He dragged him out of school and into the parking lot. ''I'm not done with you yet.''

Martin drove home with Vincent in the passenger seat, staring at Martin fearfully. ''Look, whatever you thinking about doing, don't do it. Please?''

''And why should I listen to you?'' Martin asked, not taking his eyes of the road.

He sighed in frustration. ''Martin, I'm really sorry. It was Mac's idea!''

''And you went along with it, why?''

''Coz I like someone else,'' He said really quickly.

This time, Martin turned to face Vincent. ''What has this got to do with me?'' Vincent was about to say something else but Martin waved his hand before he could speak. ''Look, your just wasting your breathe explaining it to me,'' He said, parking his car in the Camden driveway. ''Your just gonna have to explain it to everyone else as well,''

Vincent gulped. ''Everyone else?'' He looked at Martin then turned to face the Camden house.

''That's right, everyone else.'' Martin got out and walked over to the passenger side.

Vincent locked the door and stared at Martin. ''I'm not coming out.''

''Dude!'' He cried and dug his hand into his pocket and pulled out the keys. ''I have the keys, now get out!'' Vincent shook his head and Martin sighed. ''Whatever, I'm going to get the others and you better stay.'' He pointed his finger firmly at Vincent then quickly walked inside and saw Kevin. ''Kevin get the others,'' He looked over his shoulder and saw Vincent trying to escape. ''Hey!'' He chased Vincent and grabbed the strap of his bag. Vincent slipped the strap of his shoulder and continued to escape but Martin grabbed his shirt, dragging him towards the house. Kevin, Matt and Simon stood wide-eyed Lucy came running out.

''What's going on?'' Lucy asked, looking from Martin and Vincent to her siblings and husband but they ignored her.

''Well well well,'' Matt said, arms crossed, walking over as Martin let go of Vincent. The others surrounded him so he couldn't escape. ''What do we have here,''

''Look,'' Vincent began, his eyes glancing at one person to another. ''It was Mac's-''

''So Mac's involved?'' Lucy asked, raising an eyebrow.

He looked at Lucy. ''Yeah and it was his idea to-''

''To what?'' Simon questioned, before Vincent could finish his sentence.

He started over. ''It was Mac's idea to sa-''

''Gosh Simon just let him finish what he was saying before questioning him,'' Lucy said, interrupting Vincent once again.

''Stop being a hypocrite, seeing as you just interrupted him, Lucy,'' Simon shot back.

Lucy gasped. ''I am not being a hypocrite!''

''Oh yes you ar-!''

''Guys! Stop!'' Matt yelled. ''Let the boy speak!''

''Fine!'' They both howled, and turned back to Vincent.

''As I was saying,'' Vincent began, once again. ''It was Mac's idea to say Martin was the one who told me to break up with Ruthie co-''

''Where is Mac anyway?'' Kevin interrupted.

Vincent sighed and looked at Martin. Even though, he was glad that he got himself out of not having to explain the whole plan that got out of hand, he was getting frustrated with getting interrupted so many times.

''I let him go,'' Martin replied to Kevin's question.

''You let him go?'' Kevin asked, bewilder.

Martin nodded. ''Yeah,''

''Would you let a guy who robbed a bag and harmed an elderly?'' Kevin asked, staring at Martin.

''Sorry,'' Martin said. ''You don't have to get all serious and go ''cop'' on me.''

''Aww honey is that what you had to go through today?'' Lucy asked sympathetically.

''Yeah,'' He said nodding to his wife.

''Guys!'' Simon cried, waving a hand at Vincent.

''Oh sorry then Simon,'' She retorted and stormed inside.

''Look,'' Martin began quickly, before anyone else could interrupt him. ''Vincent only did this because he liked someone…'' He trailed off. ''…else.'' He concluded as he saw Ruthie standing at the gate, staring at him.

''You liked someone else?'' Ruthie asked calmly at first, while Vincent stared at his feet. ''And I'm guessing, that the rumors that have been going all over school are true?'' No one said a single word nor made a single sound. Not even the birds that are usually chirping around this time. ''That you cheated on with me with… with Margo!''

''I'm sorry okay!'' He cried. Martin noticed that he had tears in his eyes.

''Well sorry isn't good enough!'' She yelled back. ''Why didn't you just tell me!'' He didn't reply. ''Why did you have to drag Martin into this!''

''Coz I saw the way you look at him!'' He blurted suddenly.

Everyone turned to look at Martin. ''I think we should leave these two alone,'' Matt said out of the blue and dragged everyone inside, leaving Vincent Ruthie outside alone. AS they got inside, everyone looked at Martin again.

''What?'' He cried.

''Do you like my sister?'' Simon asked, folding his arms and leaning against the island.

Martin didn't answer.

''Do you?'' Matt added.

Martin looked at Kevin to see if he was gonna add anything. He was and Martin knew what he was going to say so be spoke up. ''No.'' He said firmly. But the others weren't convinced. ''No,'' He said a little less firmly. This time, it came out more like a question rather then a statement. ''No?'' He looked away from the others gaze. But what surprised him the most was when they all smiled.

Meanwhile, back outside

''What are you talking about?'' Ruthie managed to say after a few minutes of shock.

''I've seen the way you look at him,'' He repeated. ''They way you use to look at me when we first went out. The way you always try to get his attention when he's with Zoë. The way you look at Zoë with envy.'' He paused. Ruthie was too shocked to say anything so he continued. ''I've noticed this for a while now but I didn't say anything. Just thought it was my mind playing tricks on me. That's why I went on a date with Margo. But it was just once, I promise.'' By now, there were tears in Ruthie eyes but she still didn't say anything. ''I just prepared for when you dump me I would have another girlfriend ready. Sounds stupid but at that moment, it felt right.'' Ruthie notice a single tear about to drop but he quickly wiped it away. ''I'm really, truly sorry.'' He walked over to her but she gestured for him to stop. ''Ruthie, I really am.''

She tried to stop crying but she couldn't. She looked up at the sky, just hoping and praying to God for her to stop crying. She couldn't speak. She just shook her head. Finally she managed to mumble a quiet ''Sorry,'' then ran inside.

She burst through the door and bolted upstairs, running towards her room. But what took her by surprise was that she wasn't in her room. She was in Lucy's. ''I like him!'' She yelled and dropped to her knees, in tears. ''I like him so much…''

''I know you do.'' Lucy said rubbing her back. ''He's a good kid.''

''But what about Zoë?'' She asked, sitting on the floor, and crossing her legs.

''What about her?'' Lucy asked.

''How can I complete with a girl like her!'' She yelled. ''She's pretty. Smart. She's everything I'm not.''

''That's not true,'' A voice she knew to well, said. She spun around. ''She's not you…''
