The day was pretty good and we were walking out of the door when my friend Emily came up to me with a panicked look on her face.

"Alex! GiGi's coming back on Monday!" she whisper-screamed and then said bye and walked away to tell someone else, I assumed.

My smile immediately became a frown as I realized my worst nightmare was coming back and I wouldn't even have Shane and Nate to be there for me.

I was laying on my bed staring at the ceiling, tears still falling out of my eyes. I had just said goodbye to Shane, Nate, and Jason. They were gone for two weeks. GiGi would be back on Monday. Life didn't seem too good. All of a sudden, Miley and Mitchie burst into my room.

"We know you miss them but you'll see them in a week and you can call and text them." Mitchie said.

"But remember you have a date with a certain hot guy tonight and we only have 5 hours to prepare." Miley said as they dragged me out of my room.

We arrived at the mall and headed into H&M, one of my favorite stores. They continuously pointed out cute things but I settled for a black and white horizontally striped sleeveless dress with black leggings and white flats.

When we got home, Mitchie and Miley began doing my hair and makeup. There was only 3 hours left. Mitchie curled my hair so I had big curls and Miley did my makeup which consisted of slightly smoky eyes and pink lipstick along with some cover up and just a teensy bit of blush.

When they were done, with 30 minutes to spare, I had to admit, I looked good. I had Mitchie take a picture and Miley sent it to the boys. "doesn't she look hawt?" was the caption of the photo.

Shane replied with "she looks ah-mazingly hawt. haha =P", Nate replied with "eh. ive seen hotter. jk. u look great ally. =]", and Jason replied with "im digging it lex!". I couln't help but smile at what they said.

When 6:27 came, I waited for Jacob nervously and he came at 6:30 on the dot.

"Wow. You look gorgeous Alex." he said with a huge smile.

"Thanks." I replied with a grin.

"That's all thanks to us." Miley said as she came up behind me.

"Now since her parents aren't here, looks like Miles and I will have to be the ones to grill you." Mitchie said as she too approached the door.

They invited him inside and we sat on the couch, me with an amused expression.

"What time do you plan to have her home?"

"What are your intentions with Alex."

"Do you have a criminal record?"

"I don't trust anything he says…"

"…..OK. We're done. Now you two kids go and have fun!" Mitchie said as they began laughing and Miley pushed us out of the door.

We hopped into Jacob's car and he began driving me somewhere. I still couldn't figure out where we were going. Taylor had on a dress shirt and black skinny jeans on so I couldn't really tell from his outfit.

"So where are we off to?" I asked him.

"A restaurant." he replied.

"What restaurant?"
"A restaurant." he said once again.

"Helpful…" I mumbled and he chuckled. "How far away are we?"

"We'll be there in about 20 minutes." he replied.

"Okie doke."

I then received a text from Nate.

[bold is nate. italics is alex]

why are you so dressed up?

im not really dressed up…

well why do look so pretty?

aww thx =] date with Jacob 2nite. member?

oh riteee.

why?

okie doke.

thx.

I couldn't help but smile at the picture he sent. He looked so adorable. The picture was simple though. All he was doing was pouting and the caption read "missin you".

miss you 2. well I gtg.

aww why?

we're at the restaurant.

=[. ok. promise to call me later? we're usually together all day on Saturdays.

promise. love u.

love u too ally.

It was sweet times like these when I fell more in love with Nate. Curse him being so sweet. I quickly set my new wallpaper and hopped out of the car after tossing my phone into my small black clutch. Jacob then led me into the restaurant, which was empty.

"Wow. You would think more people would be here on a Saturday night." I said.

"They would but I rented it for the night." he replied with a smile.

My mouth dropped to the floor. "Are you serious? That must have been expensive. Oh thank you, thank you, thank you!" I squealed and launched myself into his arms. I could tell he was surprised by the affection but he gladly accepted it.

NATE'S POV[haven't done this in awhile have I?]

It all started when I got a picture of Alex on my phone and she looked amazing. I'd been attracted to Alex before but this was something different. I got butterflies in my stomach and I really didn't know why.

Then she told me that she looked like that for a date with Jacob. I don't really like him all because of that kiss with Alex.

Wait. Am I jealous? Looks like that crush on Alex from freshman year may be coming back…but I have Miley now.

Yeah. I have Miley now. I just need to push this little crush aside and focus on the girl that I have actual feelings for…and not my best friends. I groaned into my pillow just as Shane was walking by.

"What's the matter baby bro?" he asked.

"Don't call me that." I grumbled.

"Well sorry…I guess. But seriously, what's up?"

"I miss Alex."

"Just Alex huh? Not even your girlfriend? Ooh lala." he said with a smirk.

"I don't like Alex! She's my best friend!" I yelled.

"I never said you did… Or wait. Do you?" he asked, genuinely curious.

"You can't tell anyone, but I think I have a crush on Alex. But that doesn't matter because I have Miley…" I said, not only trying to convince him, but trying to convince myself.
