Walking into school the next day felt weird for April. She had broken up with Reece last night and didn't speak to her sister about it when she got home because she didn't want to talk about it and then she ignored all messages from Leyton, Reece and Lilly. When April woke up this morning she had over 20 text messages, 10 miss calls and 5 emails and she didn't answer one of them. She read them, but never replied. Leyton wanted to see if she was okay, Reece wanted her back and Lilly wanted to know why she did it as did October, but April didn't want to discuss it and she didn't.

Stopping at her locker April put the right combination in and turned the lock hearing the little click. She opened the door and saw a pink piece of paper drop out. April bent down to pick it up, she opened it and saw it was Leyton's writing. She gave the note a quick smile before reading it.

Hey Pretty A, so your ignoring my calls, messages and emails, but that doesn't matter because I know your properly hurting over the break up and I understand that. I just want you to know I'm here for you. I love you Boo. Ley :D xxx

April finished reading it and folded the paper back up putting it in her jacket pocket collecting the things she needed before shutting her locker again turning to see Reece at his locker across the hall from hers. He gave her a weak smile that she didn't return. April just turned around and walked down the hall. Having a free period April was debating where to go, so she just headed to a spear class room to finish her Math homework.

...

"Luke" Brooke called through the house "Luke"

"Yeah what's wrong darling" Lucas asked walking into the living room with Austin.

"Can you change Bret for me while I burp Mason please?" Brooke replied holding Mason up right rubbing and patting his back "Put Austin down there and put that one" Brooke nodded to the singing mobile type thing.

"Sure" Lucas did what Brooke asked him too then started to change Bret "April said she'll look after the triplets tonight so we can go out with Nathan and Hales"

"Oh yeah sounds good" Lucas nodded outing the dirty nappy into the diaper carry bag then dressing Bret again.

"After put Bret with Austin under there and take Mas for me" Brooke finished burping him then handed him to Luke when he sorted Bret out "I just need to put this out. Watch them yeah, I'll put the diaper out too" Brooke stood up and walked to the kitchen to put the bottle and diaper out.

...

"Have you spoken to April today" Lily asked October walking down the hall to October's locker.

"Nah she left before I did and she's been ignoring me" October answered

"Yeah me too, so I don't know what's going on with her" Lilly commented "I guess we should maybe give her some time, we were pretty hard on her about the whole Leyton/Reece drama"

"Yeah I know, but we were just trying to help and now she dumps Reece and ignoring us all" October opened her locker "I'll talk to her at lunch if I can find her"

"Are you guys talking about April?" October shut her locker and saw Liam standing next to Lilly giving her a small kiss.

"Yeah why?" Lilly nodded kissing him back

"I just came from Reece; he went for a walk and wanted to be alone. April crushed him last night and he didn't sleep at all" Liam explained "He was trying to get her to talk to him all night and got no answer"

"Yeah so was I, but she didn't get back to me and she's ignoring October too" Lilly nodded kissing Liam on the cheek.

"Well I'm gonna go to the library, but I'll catch you guys later yeah?" October tells them

"Yeah okay bye" Lilly hugs October and they turn to leave.

"October wait" October stopped and saw Kieran standing behind her

"Hey"

"I know we aren't on talking terms, but I miss you" Kieran tells her and it shocks October a lot "I want you back baby" Kieran then stepped closer, took his hand and stroked her cheek leaning in connecting his lips to hers. Once they pulled apart October smiled at him.

"Wooow still a good kisser huh?"

"Always have been" Kieran winked at her "So will you be my girlfriend again baby?"

"I missed you" October nodded "Yeah I'll be your girlfriend again"

...

Sitting in an empty classroom seemed really nice. April had no drama to deal with which meant no Reece, Leyton. October or Lilly. Well that's what she thought until her phone started to buzz again. April put my pen down and picked up her phone seeing she had a new message. April opened the message and saw it was from Leyton. So she read it.

Hey Pretty A, come talk to me please. Ley xxx

April really did want to talk and see Leyton, but she was thinking about what everyone else would think. If she went and saw Leyton then everyone would think she dumped Reece to be with him, but the truth is she doesn't know why she dumped Reece. Yeah she said she dumped him because she felt pushed out and they don't seem to be the same like they used to be and that was all right, but dumping him maybe went too far. Her head is just messed up and everything seemed to be going too fast or too slow and Reece seemed to be going nowhere. Clicking reply April started to type her reply.

I want 2 Ley I do, but I dnt knw if I shud. A xxx

It wasn't long until Leyton replied. April sat up in the chair taking deep breaths trying to think about the whole thing and wondering if she should really care what people think.

Plz cme c me A. I nee nw. L xxx

April decided she wasn't going to let people dictate her life. She was going to do what she wanted to do and she wanted to go see Leyton. She wanted to hug him and be close to him and if that made her a bad person then so be it. April didn't dump Reece for Leyton, she dumped him for reasons she not too sure of yet.

Okay I'll meet u Ley. Give me 2 secs n I'll be outside. A xxx

Leyton's response came pretty fast after April sent her reply.

Okay. C u in a bit den. L xxx

...

Collecting her stuff April walked out into the squad seeing Leyton sitting on the bench by the court yard. He was on his phone reading something. April walked up to him and he put his phone away looking up at her with a smile on his face "Hey Pretty A" Leyton patted the seat next to him and sat down "You okay Boo?" Leyton asked

"Yeah everything seems fine doesn't it Ley" April said sarcastically "Do I seem okay. I've been ignoring everyone and then I agree to meet you" April said turning to him placing her hand in her jacket pockets "Thanks for the note"

"No worries I was worried about you" Leyton admits looking at me "You were ignoring me, my messages, emails, phone calls and I just wanted you to talk to me"

"Well I'm here so talk" April stated

"Why did you do it A?" Leyton asked. April knew this question was going to come, but she didn't think Leyton would ask her. April thought October or Lilly would get there first, but here she was sitting with Leyton near the court yard having him ask these questions.

"Do what?" April acted dump. Like she didn't know what he was asking.

"Why did you dump Reece last night?" Leyton replied "Why did you just leave and not speak to me? and why have you been ignoring my calls?"

"Leyton I..." April started not really wanting to answer those questions, but knowing she had too. He deserved the answers.

"No April" He used her full name. That's how she knew he was serious "Answer me. Don't subside it"

"I dumped Reece for the reason he properly told you guys last night, our relationship was breaking and I felt pushed out and unloved even though he kept telling me he loved me/ I left because I didn't want to look like he bad guy, I didn't speak to you because I had just broke up with my boyfriend and everyone wanted answers and I didn't want to answer any and I've been ignoring your calls because I didn't want to talk to anyone. I needed time to think and you Leyton I wanted to avoid most" April answered explaining everything.

"Why avoid me the most when I've done nothing wrong?" Leyton asked sounding upset

April stood up and started to pace. This all wouldn't have happened if Leyton hadn't come back. Everything was fine when he wasn't here "You moved here Ley" April blurted out stopping to look at him. She watched as his face dropped "You moved here" She repeated "And I had just gotten over you, moving on with Reece and you come o Tree Hill and all the feelings I got over in the past year had come back and I could deal with it all. It was all too much for me, so I had to break up with Reece. I had no choice"

"You broke up with him because of me?" Leyton stood up and walked over to April taking her hand.

April moved her hand from his and walked around him "I broke up with him because of the feelings I also have for you" then April stopped when she saw Reece standing in front of her.

"You have feelings for him?"

"Reece I..." April started, but he out his hand up shaking his head

"I knew something was going on here" Reece said walking towards his former girlfriend "Ever since he came back you have been acting weird and then you dump me out of the blue after we have sex because you're in love with him"

"I didn't say I was in love with him Reece, I said I have feelings for him, but I love you" April corrects him "Just because Leyton moved here doesn't mean my love for you has changed because it never has"

"Yeah because it looks like it right?" Reece pointed to us all "You ignore my calls and messages, but your here talking to Leyton. Yeah thanks for that A, I feel the love" Reece then walked pass her and Leyton heading for the double doors.

"Reece wait please" April ran pass Leyton and grabbed Reece by the hand "Don't leave it like that"

"It's okay A, go be with the guy you really want" Reece fake smiled at her "It's all okay"

"I don't know what I want Reece, but I do know I don't want you mad at me" April hold his hand hoping he won't back away from her since she's so close and he doesn't "Don't be mad at me baby"

"Why did you dump me really A?" Reece asked

"I panicked and I didn't know what to do" April finally admitted the truth "October and Lilly were driving me crazy and then seeing Leyton with Lois made me jealous, but then seeing you and Courtney together the other day got me jealous to and I was pissed off with it and then I felt pushed out at the river court and I got mad and upset, so I dumped you and I'm really sorry Reece, don't hate me please"

"I don't hate you beautiful" Reece smiled at her kissing her cheek "I could never hate you, I will never hate you just please sort things out and let me know what you want. I'll wait for you now til ever. You're my world baby girl"

"I love you Reece" April stated "Always will, just give me time please"

"Of course baby" Reece leaned down and kissed her softly on the lips "Always" Reece then let go of her and walked into the building. April turned around and Leyton was gone. Did she lose both guys or will she be able to figure things out before they both leave?
