At this point its really just Ellie, Corey, and I. Chase would appear and dissapear, nothing important, Noah was gone, Ryan and Ellie were still trying to fall in love, or were arguing about something, who knows.

But Corey and I start getting even closer. We were always great friends, but I start to like him. He was there for me, when I was exposed, and he stuck around. I know he wanted to see what I looked like, but he didn't push it.

We got really close, and we knew a lot about our actual lives. Like Corey would wrestle, and I wished him luck on his tournaments.

He told me how he plays the guitar, and he wanted to send me a clip of him playing. Super sweet. I said I really liked the song Give Me Love by Ed Sheeran. And he said he would send him playing that song to me. I was excited to see a video of him for the first time. I thought I should send him a video of me singing the song. Cause I love the song, and I sing really well.

Things didn't really turn out, cause we did start drifting. We never admitted to liking each other.

But when I talked to Ellie, I told her I was starting to like him. She then messaged Corey, and asked him if he liked me. He told her that he was starting to.

Ellie was going through another fight with Ryan. So Ellie start flirting with Corey. Great. Just great. Someone is starting to like me for me, and Ellie needs to come in. Whatever. I felt I was jsutbinto Corey cause he was the only one there. And he was nice. I wasn't like sexually attracted to him.

Corey always liked Ellie, and that would never change. So obviously he would converse back with her. And would accept the flirting. But Corey was not sneaky about it. He told me, right after, that Ellie is starting to show interest in him again, and he didn't want to lead me on, but he does want to see how things go with Ellie.

And I totally respect him for that. He wasn't trying to do anything behind my back. I appreciate that he told me.

In the meantime, Ellie and Ryan would fight a lot. And Ryan did originally have me blocked, but he messaged me. And he told me its best if we keep the fact that him and I are talking between us.

So this whole time, Ellie though Ryan and I hated each other, but we didn't. We were actually really close. And shared the same sense of humor. We didn't really flirt. But he would come to me if he had problems with Ellie.

Ellie was the problem in Ryan and my friendship. Ellie would cause us to fight about little irrelavent things.
