The big day was steadily approaching. The day that Flaky and Nutty's English project was due. Luckily, they had gotten it finished a couple days before and now they had a week beforehand it was due and spent their English periods doing other things. Neither had talked about what happened at Nutty's house and both teens seemed to think that some things were better left unsaid.
Unbeknownst to Flaky, however, was that Nutty felt bad for what happened because of what Flippy had told about him and Flaky. It was all a lie though. All because Flippy didn't want to lose his best friend. One thing that further complicated everything was when one of Flaky's friends, Lammy, came over to Nutty by his locker after class.
Lammy had violet-colored hair in a bob style cut and always wore a fluffy white sweater. She had bright purple eyes and a big smile on her face ninety percent of the time. This was one of the rare times Flaky wasn't with him as she had a different class than him after English. Lammy smiled brightly at Nutty and said "Hi!" in a cheerful voice.
"Hey, Lammy."
"I heard something interesting. Want to know what?"
Nutty smiled, "Oh! Secrets! I like secrets"
Lammy giggled, "Yeah. Anyway, I heard you like someone, and I happen to know that this someone likes you too."

Lammy was in the library, looking for a book to read when she heard someone calling her name from the other side of the library. She decided to go see who said her name and what they even wanted. She turned the corner and behind a bookshelf, sitting at one of the multiple tables, was Flippy. He smiled and motioned for her to sit down. She was confused a bit but sat down across from him anyway.
"Flippy? Why'd you call me over here? You need something?"
"I just thought I'd let you know a little something I found out earlier."
Now Lammy wasn't one for gossip as she disliked talking bad about someone or behind someone's back, but even she couldn't resist hearing about a possible secret. So she nodded, "What'd you find out?"
"You know Nutty, right?"
"Yeah."
"Well, I heard he happens to have quite the little crush on you, my friend."
Lammy blushed slightly, she always liked Nutty as more than a friend or acquaintance and she thought he seemed like an interesting guy who was just misunderstood by everyone else. So the thought of the sugar-addicted teen liking her back seems like a dream come true.
"You're sure?"
"Oh, Lammy." Flippy faked a concern expression, but had a smug smile underneath it, "Now why would I lie to you about something like that?"

"Really? Who told you?"
Lammy smiled and shook her head, "Not important. But what is important is the person who likes you."
"I didn't think she liked me."
"Well, she does!"
Then before Nutty even knew what was happening, Lammy grabbed his face and pulled into a kiss. His mind went into overdrive as he found himself kissing her back due to pure insticnt, though his mind screamed at him.
"Wait! I don't like Lammy!"
"Who told Lammy I liked her?"
"Why am I still kissing her!?"
Out of the corner of his eye, Nutty saw the shocked face of Flaky. She had left class to use the bathroom and found the other two teenagers just as Lammy kissed him, but Flaky saw it as Nutty kissing her. She felt a tidal wave of emotions coursed through her. She was confused. Why would Nutty be kissing Lammy? She was angry. She thought he had grown to like her. She was sad. Nutty was her first true friend and maybe could have been more, but now. . .
Now it seemed he was nothing.
