Meagan has been enjoying her new life in a new school and a new home with new parents. Her best friend, Jake, was really great. He always made her feel better, laugh and just be happy. She knew there were rumours that they were dating, but she didn't really care. It's not that she doesn't like Jake, she does, but as far as she knew, she still likes Andy.
Meagan was afraid she would never see him again. Until, she saw him in the cafeteria. She's sure he saw her to, but when she was about to go up to him, he was already gone. She didn't see him in 2 years, and he was finally here, but she couldn't find him anywhere. Finally when she was about to give up, a few of her friends directed her to his locker, and she wrote him a note.
-o-
So far, Andy was lucky enough not to see Meagan. But of course, it wouldn't last. Andy was about to go to class, when a note fell from his locker. It was from Meagan.
"Hey, Andy, long time, no talk. Meet me at the fountain at 3pm, please. I would love to pick up where we left off. Meagan"
What did she mean by that? Andy wondered. Pick up where they left off! Did she mean their friendship, or when they liked each other? Wasn't she still dating that Jake guy? Does she still like him? Was he going to go? Does he still like her?
Andy was so confused. There were so many questions running through his head. He knew that he could get the answers by meeting her, but would he risk it? If she didn't like him, did he really want to hear it? Would he risk it all, like or not, to spare himself? Yes, Andy decided he did not want to go.
Unfortunately, he was late for class, and by the time he got there, there was only one seat left. Only one partner left. He had Sandy brown hair, hazel eyes, and a strong build. They worked silently until the last few minutes of class; they were done, so they had time to talk.
"Hey, I'm Jake." Andy eyes narrowed in realization. Jake the one Meagan, was supposedly dating. He was getting angry again. There was no way he was going to meet Meagan at the fountain.
"And you are?"Jake said, all too innocently.
"Andy" He practically growled it, but luckily the bell rang, saving Andy from doing anything he'd regret. Andy was the first out of the room.
But the next day, he had the same class, with the same partner. He was ready to full-fledge ignore Jake, until he said
"You know, Meagan told me a lot about you." Andy snapped back into attention. How much did she tell him?
"Also heard you like her" Then suddenly, Andy remembered that Jake was dating Meagan, making Jake sound almost protective.
"oh, I'm sorry. I-" Andy started to say before he was cut off by Jake's laughter.
"for what?"
"aren't you guys dating or something..."
"oooh, you must've heard the rumours. Well, it would definitely be the 'or something' because we are just friends." Jake said, with a hint of bitterness. Andy gave a sigh of relief; it was way too early in the year to make enemies.
"and beside, she still likes you alot." Andy gaped at Jake. She WHAT! He looked at Jake again, Jake was serious.
-o-
"hey Jake! How was class?" Meagan asked, when she saw Jake walking towards her with a triumphant smile.
"hey, it was great!" he responded.
"anything new?" she asked, hoping to imply, that she wanted to know why he smiling so broadly.
"oh, nothing much. I just told Andy that that you like him a lot" he said casually.
"oh okay,- wait WHAT!" Jake just laughed and she could feel herself blushing, so she hit him with her text book. "how"-hit-"could"-hit-"you"-hit-"do"-hit-"that!"
"well it's true isn't it?" Jake said, suddenly, serious.
"N-no. I-I don't l-like A-Andy" Meagan stuttered. She really believed she didn't like him, but her stupid stutter made her sound like she was lying.
"So why are you stuttering?"Jake demanded
She dodged his question "Why are you so interested?"
"I don't know, maybe because you're my best friend!" Jake exclaimed.
"are you sure that's the only reason?" Meagan said, taking a step closer to him.
"Fine. You want to know the real reason. I'm in love with you, but you know what else, It's okay, because I know that you've been in love with Andy for the last 2 years!" And he strode away, leaving Meagan, only to gape in the direction he left.
Could it be true? Had Jake been in love with Meagan for the last two years? Was she really, in love with Andy the whole time without knowing it? Could she really be in love with both of them?
