Chapter 2

It was six when Jamie got a call from Connor. I hope he's not calling to cancel, she thought. "Hey Jamie, listen, I'm really sorry but I'm sick and I

can't make it tonight." Connor said. "Oh ok, I understand. I guess I'll just see you tomorrow at school," Jamie told him. "All right, I hope I'm not too

sick," he said. "I hope you feel better. Bye!" Jamie said. "Bye," he replied.

The next day at school, Jamie met Harmony and Lindsay her locker. "Hey, have you guys seen Connor?" Jamie asked them. "Oh didn't you hear, he's

out sick with the stomach flu!" Lindsay said. "Oh no, that's terrible. He said he was going to ask me something, too." Jamie said. Lindsay and

Harmony looked at each other and smirked. "Why are you guys smiling like that?" Jamie asked them. "Oh no reason…." Harmony said. Then the bell

for class rang. "I guess I'll see you guys at lunch then!" Jamie said, because they all had different classes. Jamie grabbed some books out of her locker,

but as she was grabbing her English textbook, one of her pictures caught her eye. It was one of her and Connor, and she was blowing his hair back.

Looking at it made her smile. Suddenly, someone shoved into her and brought her back to reality. It was Marco! "Oh Jamie! I'm so sorry, didn't see

you there," he apologized. "It's no problem." She said. "Listen, Jamie, I hope we can still be friends, even after what happened at the dance. You're a

really cool person to hang out with." he said. "I'd like that," Jamie smiled. "So how are things with you and Sawyer?" "Not so good, actually. I broke

up with her. We just didn't have that much in common it turns out." he replied. "So….friends?" he stuck out his hand. Jamie shook it and smiled.

"Friends." Then, the late bell started to ring. "Come on, we're late," Marco said. Then he and Jamie both ran to their English class.

At lunch, Jamie found her lunch table and sat down with Harmony and Lindsay. She was just about to tell them what had happened with Marco, when

she sensed someone standing behind her. "Hey Jamie, you mind if I sit with you? Sawyer won't let me sit at her table." "Of course you can sit with us,

Marco." Jamie said. Harmony and Lindsay looked at each other. Then they looked at Jamie. She gave them a look that said What? They shrugged.

"Thanks, Jamie" Marco said.

As soon as Jamie got home from school, she called Connor. "Hey Conner, how are you feeling?" she asked him. "Um, not so good, actually. I don't

think I can come to school for at least two more days," he said, and sneezing. "That stinks. I miss you." she said. "Me, too." Connor said. "Well I

hope you feel better. I'll talk to you later." she told him and hung up. Then she started typing on her laptop. Ding! An IM popped up on Jamie's

screen, startling her. It was from "marco4439". It read, hey jamie, its marco. Hey what's up, she typed back. hey you're good at geometry, right?

he typed. Somehow Jamie knew what he was going to ask her, but she decided to pretend she didn't. Yeah, I guess. Why? Marco quickly typed

back, well I was wondering if maybe you could tutor me. A few seconds passed and another message from him said, if I fail math, then I have to

quit the football team. Jamie then typed, sure, why not. Marco replied, thanks jamie you're the best, and signed off. Suddenly Jamie had a feeling

in the pit of her stomach that she shouldn't have agreed to tutor Marco. But she decided to ignore it.
