Next day: Claire's P.O.V:

Beep, beep, beep

went my alarm clock I fumble around for it and manged to put it off, then I got up and went to my dresser and got out to wear: long black leggins, a long top that says Paris on it with the effiel tower and Norta Dame on it aswell along with a pair of black sandles.I had my hair down and decided to wear some mascara.

I grabbed my backpack and misarebley walked down the stairs and into the kitchen where my mum was making pancakes.

"Morning honey, how are..." her voice tralied off as she saw my moopy face.

"Oh baby girl...what's wrong?" she asked me

"Nothing"

"Yes there is, beacuse you walked down the stairs this morning and juging by that sad look on your face somethings wrong."

"It dosen't matter" I said while sighing and looking away.

"Yes it does. Now sit down and tell me what's wrong"

I sat down opposite my mum and I put my head on the table with my hands covering my head.

"You know my new friend Alyssa Collins" I started

"Yes I do. I was speaking to her mother in the grocery store very nice person she has a son aswell Shane I think she said was his name" mum answered.

"Well...I think i'm in love with Shane" I said.

"Awwww...sweety that's wonderful"

"No. No it isn't because he's not intrested in me"

"Why is that?"

"Because I am young and i'm an ugly freak, nerdy girl. Besides he went on a date with Monica Morrel the mayor's daughter last night while I was sitting right next to him. Monica knew I really liked him and told me to back of cause he is her's, she walked out the room and I got up to leave Shane called after me but I couldn't...I couldn't let him see how much I loved him" I say starting to cry thank god this is waterproof mascara.

Mum was slient for a mintute then said "Listen to me Claire Danvers you are not an ugly freak or a nerdy girl. You are just a very clever and gifted young girl, I highly doubt that would put him off, and as for this Monica girl...stand up to her when she tries and bullies you again it won't matter who's daughter she is. She is a nasty piece of work alright. You really need to tell Shane how you feel"

My head shot up at tha moment with thick tears trickiling down my face as I said

"Your kidding right. No way in hell am I going to tell him that"

"Why ever not?"
"Because he will make fun off me and spread rumurs and i'll never live it down"

"I'm sure he won't do that"

"Whatever I need to get to school see you and dad later" I say getting up and heading for the door

"You need to tell him" mum said as I opened the door. My dad was coming down the stairs as I stepped outside I heared him say

"Tell who what?"

I quickly walked down the steps and out of the front gate. Praying that mum would not tell dad.

Shane's P.O.V.:

I got up this morning and went to take a shower thinking about last night. I had to tell Claire how I felt. The longer I didn't tell her the more the more I wanted, needed and missed her. I don't care if she is Alyssa's best friend I am going to tell her. I got ready and grabbed my bag and walked with Lyss to school.

Claire's P.O.V.:

When I got to school I was walking down one of the corridors and I saw Monica surronded by a group of girls and as I passed her one of the girl's ask

"So did you and Shane...you know?"

Then I heard Monica say

"Yeah we did for the whole movie and it was great"

I imdently felt sick and walked quickly to maths where Shane was. I tryed to look for another seat but I knew I would get moved back next to Shane so I sat down and ignored him as hard as I could.

"Claire I need to tell you..." Shane started before I cut him off

"Shane I already know"

"You...you do"

"Yep. Heard it from Monica as I walked passed her this morning"

"What...what did she say?"

"That you and her did it through the whole movie and that it was great"

"That's...that's not what happened"

"what?"

"she tried to but I pushed her off"

"ahhh...Shane don't lie to the freak" Said the cold, cruel, icey voice standing in front of us

Me and Shane looked up at her

"I'm guessing the freak heard my conversation...you fucking evesdropper"

Shane stood up fast and stepped towards Monica and said

"Leave her alone Monica"

Monica then smiled and evil smile and kissed him and Shane didn't pull away I stood up and ran away in tears.


Shane's P.O.V:

I was mortified what Monica was spreading around about last night. When she called Claire a freak I got up and told her to leave Claire alone. But then she kissed me and I heard Claire crying and I was in shock that I didn't relise that my lips were still pressed on Monica's. I manged to push Monica off and my stare was a deadly one towards her.

"Did you like that Shaney?"

"Fuck off Monica"

"Whatever looks like your little freaky girlfriend didn't like it"

I turned to where Claire was sitting and she wasn't there she must off ran off. I ran out of the classroom to look for Claire. I ran into Micheal, Eve and Alyssa.

"Hey guys, did you see where Claire went?" I asked desperatly.

"No man. Why you looking for her?" Micheal asked.

Oh man what am I going to say

"I...I need to talk to her"

"Oh" Said Eve while grinning

"What are you grinning for?" I asked

"Yeah Eve why..." Alyssa started but she soon got what Eve was talking about which I had no idea about, and Alyssa slowly grinned aswell trying to hold back a laugh.

"Girls. I'm with Shane on this one why are you grinning?" asked Micheal

"Oh come on Micheal even your not that dumb. Why would Shane be looking for the new girl to "talk" to her" Eve said

"I don't..." Micheal started before he got it and he was trying not to laugh

Oh no they knew shit what am I going to do now hell even say

I just stood there straing at them in silence and then all 3 of them burst out laughing.

"I never thought I see the day my big tough bro would fall in L.O.V.E ahhhh" Alyssa said teasing me

"Yeah. What happened to Shane the player." Micheal said laughing his head off

"Collins I'm warning you now make a wrong move on her I will kill you" Eve said still laughing

"This is all very funny guys but right now I need to find her do you know where she is" I said getting frustrated

"Now that I think of it we saw her running into the girls toliets crying heavely" Alyssa said

I made a run towards the girl's toliets I didn't go in though that would be very bad instead I stood outside and heard heavey crying.

"Claire...Claire it's me please come out"

"No!"

"Why?"

"Because Monica might be with you to hurt my feelings again"
"NO!...no she isn't out here please just come out here"

I heard slience for a few mintutes then she came out there was red around her eyes, she then came and stood opposite me with her arms folded.

"What do you want?" she asked

"A red lambougini and 100 million dollars but I'll settle to talking to you about last night and what just happened with Monica."

She nodded.

"Nothing happend between me and Monica last night she is just saying that to keep up her sluty reputation, and what just happened was to wind you up she can't stand the fact that I don't like her"

"Then why did you go out on a date with her?!" Claire screamed at me

"Because she would make life hell not just for me but for you and possibly for Alyssa, Eve and Micheal"

"Why?...why do you care if anything happens to me your my best friends brother your not sopposed to care about me"

"well I do"

"Why?!"

"because I love you" silence settled in and I couldn't believe what I just said. I'll admit it made me feel better getting it off my chest and I could tell she was shocked as I opened my mouth to say something else she ran off again.
