A/N: I got another review yesterday and I was absolutely overjoyed. Anyway, I will try to watch out for spelling errors because they bother me too. Also, I apologize in advance if it takes me a long time to post new chapters. Unfortunately, I have summer homework, and then I have band camp. So, I don't have a lot of free time. Well, here's the next chapter.

*1 Month Later*

Adam's POV

It was literally painful to watch Bree walk around with Jason. It was painful to watch her walking around with someone who was only pretending to love her. Why am I doing this to her?

We were all at lunch now and I couldn't keep my eyes off of them. They were sitting a few tables away from us. When he put his arm around her it made me want to walk over and punch him. That should be me.

My brain shut down as soon as I thought that. It just kept replaying in my head. You're jealous Adam. I refused to admit that to myself so I pushed the thought from my head.

Now all I could think about was how wrong this was. The fact that she looked so happy. The way her eyes lite up when she laughed. She was pretty much back to her old self. Which means she was vulnerable. All the feelings that she thinks Jason has for her, they're all fake and it's going to push her over the edge.

Melissa was sitting next to me and talking my ear off. Something about what she was going to wear for the bonfire.

"What is up with you Adam?" I snapped out of my haze and turned to look at Angel. I could tell she didn't really care what was wrong with me, but apparently everyone else did, now that she had pointed all their attention at me.

"Nothing. I was just wondering... Well- I just think maybe we shouldn't go through with this after all. The prank on Bree, I mean." The silence that followed my statement was crushing. Everyone was staring at me with wide eyes and looks of shock, disbelief, and confusion. But one person remained neutral.

"What are earth are you talking about?" Alec asked, while everyone else stayed frozen. He looked right at me when he asked the question but he sounded as casual as if he was asking me what time it was.

In truth, I had no idea where all that had come from. It sort of just slipped out. Like the old me was trying to break out. But I quickly sealed those feelings away.

"I just meant that maybe it isn't the best time..." I trailed off, not knowing how I was going to continue that. Angel looked at me skeptically and then there was an evil glint in her blue eyes.

"I think you might have a little crush on the girl Adam." She said nonchalantly and the whole table fell into a tense silence. Can you say awkward?

What Angel said must have registered into Melissa's head a few seconds late. As soon as she got it, she turned and glared daggers at the back of Bree's head.

"You're mental Angel." Demetri said quietly with a sigh. She wasn't even fazed by that. She just kept her gaze on me. "I think I'm right." she said, tapping her fingers against the table. "Why else would you be feeling guilty?"

"I don't feel guil-"

"Yes, you do. You know I'm starting to think we shouldn't have let you into our group." She said with a shrug.

Her accussing statement made me go numb. I couldn't think or feel anything. Was I really in this so deep that just the idea of letting go of my popularity seemed unreal and just plain ridiculous?

Riiiing!

I felt like I was in a movie or something. Everyone around us was moving in a blur, but it was like we were frozen.

Then suddenly time picked up again. Alec was the first to leave, without even saying goodbye. "I'll see you later Angel." Demetri said before standing up and walking away. Alice and Melissa walked off to class together.

Angel and I stood up at the same time and she turned away from me. I turned to walk away but then she spoke.

"Your old life is gone Adam. Those feelings you had for Bree...They don't matter anymore." She stopped talking for a moment but she didn't walk away so I didn't move. "I know what everyone thinks of me... But I didn't used to be this way. I used to be so... normal. Average." She laughed a little. "Now everyone hates me. All I have is my friends now. Despite what people may think, we look out for each other, and we wouldn't turn our backs on each other."

"What I'm saying is our appearance is all we have. I can't stop you from leaving, that's your choice. The thing is, you won't be accepted as one of them anymore. You'll always be seen as a popular." She sighed and looked up at the passing clouds. "She won't forgive you. Trust me... I know."

With that, she walked away to class. The yard was completely empty now and I wondered vaguely where the security guards were. But the main thing going through my mind as I walked to class was Angels last statement.

She won't forgive you. Trust me...I know.

Bree's POV

"Andrew! Andrew, stop! Don't hurt them! Andrew!" This only fills the guy (Andrew) with a boiling rage and he screams, sending out a powerful shockwave.

This same dream again. Except this time it isn't the guy screaming at Andrew to stop. It's me, and I know what comes next. I'm going to kill him. The thought makes my blood freeze but I can't stop myself.

Andrew needs to be stopped... The thought goes through my mind without permission as I look around for something.

No...No stop please. But it's too late. Suddenly the spear is flying and-

"Bree...hey Bree, get up." I couldn't identify the voice as I slowly sat up and tried to rub the sleep out of my eyes.

Where am I? Then I remembered. After school Jason had taken me back to his place. I guess he knew I wouldn't want to go back home, so I didn't argue.

His mom was nice. She made me feel at home, like I was wanted...cared for, and it made me ache for my mother, even though I barely knew her. But I put on a smile, not wanting to make Jason feel bad.

Anyway, Jason had put in the movie Transformers. When the movie started we were on opposite sides of the couch. Somehow I ended up leaning on Jason's shoulder...asleep. Embarrassing much?

"Sorry Jason. I just didn't get a lot of sleep last night." I said. I looked over at him and smiled but he frowned.

"Something wrong?" I asked and he stayed silent for a moment. "Who's Andrew?" For a second I have absolutely no idea what he's talking about, then I remember my dream.

It horrified me that I was calling out some random guys name from a very strange dream. "I don't know. I mean, I had this really weird dream. Trust me, its nothing."

Jason smiled at me but the dream kept replaying in my mind. Jason had woken me up before the worst part... An involuntary shudder ran down my spine at the thought of what I was going to do to Andrew. Get a grip Bree. It was just a dream.

"You okay Bree?" Jason's voice broke through my thoughts and I looked over at him. "Hmm? Oh. Yeah, I'm fine. What time is it anyway?" Jason grabbed his phone off the coffee table and looked at it.

"It's almost 6:30." He said and after a moment I stood up. "I should be getting back home." Before my dad gets back... I guess Jason could tell what I meant by the look on my face because he stood up. "Okay, let's go then."

~~Skip~~

"Thanks for the ride Jason." I said as I opened the door. I was about to get out when he grabbed my arm. I looked back at him. "Everything okay?" I asked, worry creeping into my voice. He didn't say anything for a moment. I knew I shouldn't over-react but I couldn't help all the worst case scenarios that were running through my mind.

He's going to break up with me, isn't he? Of course he is. How could you ever think he would like someone like you...

"Bree, how long have we been dating?" Oh god...He is breaking up with me. Stop that. Don't over-react. "Um... About 3 months." He pause for a moment. "Why do you a-"

My question was cut off when his lips touched mine. For a moment I was too dazed to do anything. Then I kissed him back.

Sparks flew and my heart was racing... Not. I know, I'm a romantic kill joy. But I just didn't feel anything. He pulled away from me and I was still a little dazed.

"You okay?" I focused my gaze on Jason. "Yeah...I'm fine. It's just that..." I didn't know how I was supposed to finish that. I didn't even know where that statement was going.

"Was that your first kiss?" The surprise in Jason's voice made my face get hot and I knew my cheeks must have been very red. I couldn't even force myself to answer.

"Hey, no need to be embarrassed. It's fine. But if I had known it was your first kiss I would have made it more special. Like, on top of the ferris wheel or something."

I forced a smile at him. "No, its okay." Silence followed and it wasn't comfortable silence. it was the kind of silence that made you squirm in your seat. Can silence be crushing, because I couldn't breath.

"Well um... I'll see you tomorrow." I finally managed to squeak out as I stepped out of the car.

"Yeah, see you tomorrow. I'll pick you up tomorrow... If you want?" I was tempted to say no. But then I would feel guilty. Sometimes I think I'm too nice.

"Yeah. Just text me when you get here. See you tomorrow." I forced a smile and waved as he drove away.

My mood quickly darkened. How do you really feel about him Bree? You didn't feel anything when he kissed you. In fact, in only reminded you of A-

I refused to let his name cross my mind, but it was no use. Because Jason hadn't even given me a chance to answer. That wasn't my first kiss...

My first kiss was on the beach by the boardwalk... Adam had been my first kiss. It had been quick and we had never acted on it. I doubt he even remembers. But that one kiss had held more emotion any of Jason's kisses ever would.

But I couldn't think about that. Adam would never think of me like that. But I couldn't deny it to myself anymore. Jason had just confirmed something for me. I was in love with my ex-best friend.

Man... Could my life get any worse?

A/N: And the next chapter has arrived. I decided to give Angel a little bit of a back story. Oh, and I made a tumblr blog dedicated to this story. The link will be on my profile by tomorrow. If I forget to put them up, then feel free to message me.

Until then, Review. I want to know what you guys think.
