Authors note: sorry for the delay, I had midterms. This chapter is a bit shorter than the others and mainly focuses on Samey and her friends, and Brick starting to realize that something's up with Samey. Also there's a bit of ZoeyxMike in this. Review and enjoy :-)

At the cafeteria, Samey tried to find her friends. Amy had already ditched her, which she was grateful for. She looked for them for a few minutes until she found them sitting at an empty table in the back of the cafeteria. However, she noticed that Zoey wasn't there.

"Samey! Over here!" Jazmine shouted. Samey made her way to the table and sat down in between her and Dawn.

"Where's Zoey?" Samey asked.

"Sitting next to Mike" Dawn stated.

"They finally hit it off" Jazmine informed the twin. Samey wasn't too close to Mike, but from what she's seen, he was a good person. The only problem is…he's a bit odd. His personality would randomly change throughout the day. Despite that, him and Zoey instantly fell in love with each other at first sight. Everyone knew about how much they adored one another, but they were too stubborn to admit it. At least, until now.

"It's about time" Samey stated. "They've known each other for quite awhile now."

"Indeed" Dawn added, "they should have gotten together a long time ago. Anyways, judging from the look of your aura, it looks like your health has severely gone downhill since the Holidays."

"Now that you've mentioned it, it does look like Samey lost some weight" Jazmine stated. "If you loose anymore weight, you'll be skinnier than a Braconid Wasp*."

"I think your over exaggerating" Samey said, "I'm fine. If anything, I think I gained weight."

"Nonsense!" Dawn almost shouted, "you lost about ten pounds in the last two weeks. You barely weigh eighty pounds, which is extremely unhealthy for someone like you!" Samey was taken aback by what Dawn had said. Was she really getting THAT bad?

"I have to agree with Dawn" Jazmine added. "Not only have you lost weight, but you've also lost most of your energy, color, personality, and charm. If this keeps up, your grades may start to fall. I don't see why I can't kick Amy's ass?"

"Because if you do, she'll ruin my life" Samey stated.

"…I guess you're right."

"Well there has to be some way we could help you?" Dawn stated.

"Thanks for your concern guys, but I'm alright. Really… it'll die down eventually."

"This thing you and Amy have had lasted almost fourteen years" Dawn stated.

"I know…I just think that there's nothing I could do."

"Even if you do believe that, just remember this, Dawn, Zoey, and I will always be there for you." Jazmine stated. Dawn looked at Samey and nodded with agreement.

"Thanks guys, I'm glad you're in my life" Samey said as she smiled at her friends.

Meanwhile:

After running into the twins, Brick made his way to the cafeteria. He couldn't help but wonder about Samey.

"Was she really ok?" Brick thought to himself.

"She's fine. That's how she always looks…" for some reason, Brick couldn't believe in what Amy said. In fact, until now, he didn't even know that Amy had a sister.

Samey was undeniably hurting and Brick knew it. The problem is, he didn't know why...

After getting his lunch, he decided to sit with two of his best friends, Cameron and Mike. There were other people sitting there, but they were people he knew.

"Oh hey Brick" Mike said as he sat down. Brick immediately noticed that a girl was sitting next to him.

"Brick, this is Zoey. Zoey, this is Brick" Mike introduced the two.

"Nice to meet you" Zoey said with a smile. Brick returned the greeting.

"Mike finally got her to go out with him" Cameron said, "he's been chasing her for almost two years."

His friends started talking about other stuff, but Brick wasn't listening. All he could think about was Samey…
