I wake up and rub the sleep out of my eyes. Another morning. Another day at school. Another day I have to see Ethan with Jasmine. The beautiful, perfect cheerleader, for the beautiful, perfect football player.

If any of you were wondering I've known the Dolans for years. Our parents have been best friends since college. I have known them since I was 2 years old. Me and Grayson have been really close, he's like my brother, as if Jackson isn't enough. I've always had a crush on Ethan. After he got famous and started dating Jasmine, I could never do anything about it.  All of our parents used to think that we'd end up together, tbh so did I.

I put on my outfit for a casual Tuesday in February, (pic above).  I walked out the door after saying bye to my mom.  I walked to my car, and waited for the Dolans to get in from across the street.  Grayson got in the front giving me a hug and a smile.  Ethan got in the back with red puffy eyes and not saying a word.  I wonder what's wrong with him.
"Hey Eth" I said smiling.
"Hi" he said flatly.
I looked towards Grayson, it's like we can read eachothers minds. 
What's up with him?  He just shrugged.  The car ride was silent...except for me and Gray singing to every song that came on the radio.  Ethan had a few tears roll down his cheeks, but he quickly wiped them away.  I really felt bad for him, I hate seeing him sad.  I always want to see him happy, and I have no problem with me being in the background. 

We finally parked at our spot in the school parking lot.  Ethan nearly jumped out of the car and bolted for the front doors.  Me and Gray ran after him and watched what we though we would never see...

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME JASMINE?!" We heard Ethan yell while hitting his fist on the locker.

A/N tell me what you guys think!  Thank you❤️
