Last time on Broken:

I'm shocked, "What? F-Foe? Are you serious? How do you know?"

Nelson pulls out a recorder, "Listen for yourself." and he hits play.

I hear two voices on the recording. One Spencer and one Zander… LOSER 5? OH HELL NO!... Pity? Why would he… A sob story? Is that what he really thinks...

Nelson rolls his eyes, "Now this is a serious matter involving our dear friend, Zander."

"Excuse me?!" Zander starts getting defensive. Nelson just ignores him and continues, "He's been lying to us."

"WHAT?!" Kacey, Kevin and Zander yell.

I pull out the recorder, "Listen" and I press play.

No One's Pov:

Stevie hits play on her recorder and you can hear two voices talking.

Zander/Spencer

"Sup Zander?"

"Hey."

"Still with Loser 5?"

"Ha, yeah"

"They're such idiots. I can't believe they actually believe that you want to there friend."

"I pity them. They're losers so they need some friends."

"Yeah. I mean they suck. Like how Kacey sucks at cheerleadering. She's hot though."

"Nelson and Kevin only have a stupid game since they have no lives."

"Stevie's just a sob story. She just wants attention."

"I know she's so annoying! One time she looked at my song book and thought that one of the songs was for her!"

"Damn I don't know how you stand them."

"Well when we finish high I forget all about them. Thank god."

"Okay enough about your tragedy. Let's go practice."

"All right. All right."

Zander's Pov:

My jaw drops. They followed me? They know. My eyes dart up to Stevie's. She looks so hurt. I caused that. I don't want to see her hurt.

"You guys followed me?" I ask.

"I did." Nelson replies.

"Zander, how could you?" Kacey asks.

I groan, "It's not what you think."

"Not what we think? Well I think so sound like an ass!" Nelson yells. I look around. Kevin is quiet, Stevie's about to cry and Kacey looks pale.

"Y-you guys are my friends." I stutter. My voice is cracking and a lump forms in my throat.

"Friends," Stevie whispers. She stands up and walks over to me. A tear slips out from her watery eyes and I just want to hug her, kiss her, tell her that I'm sorry and forget about this.

"Friends?" she whispers again. I nod.

"Well friends don't talk about other friends like that! ESPECIALLY BEST FRIENDS!" She screams. I get up and stare at her. tears stream down her face and drip down her chin

"You don't understand." I whisper.

"Understand? You STABBED us in the back! What dont we understand?!" Kevins says.

"LET ME EXPLAIN!" I scream, "GIVE ME A FUCKING CHANCE!"

Kacey huffs, "Fine one chance. That's it."

I sigh, "It started in the eighth grade."

*FLASHBACK*

I walk into Brewster Middle School and walk up to my team.

"Z-man what's up man? How was summer?" Justin ask.

I grin, "Been with the ladies. You know how I roll."

The team laughs and praise me. I love being captain.

John cocks his head to the side, "What's up with the mini guitar?"

I roll my eyes, "It's a ukulele, dumbass."

"Whatever. Why do you have it?" John asks.

"I learned a few instruments over the summer. The ukulele is my favorite."

"Whatever. Just dont into one of them." Justin laughs turning to four other kids. those kids are music-loving freaks. Kacey Simon head cheerleader, Nelson Baxter a nerd, Kevin Reed another nerd, and Stevie Baskara a snappy girl. (Zander note: I think she's beautiful but I don't tell them that)

"Them?" i ask, "i could have them wrapped around my finger like that." i say and snap my fingers.

"Then let's bet," Justin says, "Become their friend and see if you can last until... the end of high school."

"And if I win?" the bet seems tempting.

"If you win the whole team will run around the school in our underwear and if you lose you have to run around the park in your underwear." justin says, sticking his hand out.

"Deal?"

I grin, "Deal." and i shake his hand.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

Stevie's Pov:

I stare at Zander, furious. he became our friend, as a bet.

"So you became our friend as a bet?"

"Yes, but by the time we started high school I forgot all about it!. They guys brought it up last week so I just played along! I'm kinda glad i took that bet too! If I didn't Gravity 5 wouldn't have happened and I would still be a snotty football player! But please forgive me!" he begs and begs until Kevin speaks up.

"Save it. You have lost my trust and friendship." and then he takes his bag and leaves.

Then it's Kacey, "You're out of the band." she follows Kevin.

Then Nelson, "Have your stuff out by tomorrow." he grabs his stuff and slams the door. Now it's my turn to put my two cents in.

"Stevie," he chokes out my name, "Please forgive me." after all we've been through. The tears, the laughs, the songs. The cheeky bastard.

"I HATE YOU." I don't scream at him, I just say it firmly.

"No, no please! You have to understand." tears rolls down his face and make a puddle on the carpet.

"Understand? Understand? Understand that our friendship is built on lies? did you even think about our feelings in the beginning? DID U? I hate you Zander Robbins. I hate you." I whisper out the last part. His tears are now just an endless river and his nose is getting red. I grab my bag and bass as tears blur my vision. I swing the door open and slam it as I walk out. You can hear him crying down the hall. Some are for me to come back, other are just sobs.

I make my way to the school entrance. Kevin, Kacey, and Nelson are sitting on the steps. Nelson stands up and opens his arms. I crash into him and cry. after a goo five minutes i start to hiccup. Kacey takes my bag and Nelson carries me bridal style to Kevin's car. We pile into the car, Kacey and Kevin in the front and Nelson and I in the back. we stay quiet as Kevin's drives to my house.

Okay so we have some drama on our hands. A little bit of Zevie from Zander (if you squint.) It turns out there will be more Nelvie in this story. LIKE A LOT. I would love it if you guys could give me some ideas! PM me or review with your idea! So remember to review, follow, share, and favorite please! Kay PEACE OUT!
