"He calls you baby girl, aww'" Lexi squealed. I just finished explaining to her everything that happened between Blake and I that she doesn't already know. I might've left out the part where I realized I was falling for Blake but she doesn't need to know everything. I did tell her that I might've liked him a a couple of weeks ago but I think she forgot completely.

"He also calls me a dork." I chuckled. Blake calling me sweet nicknames actually make me feel nice, sorta. I don't know, I just know I really like it. I pretend that I don't but I secretly actually do.

"I can't believe he actually cares about what happened between you Nate, your man whore of an ex boyfriend." She laughed. To be completely honest I was taken back too. I didn't realize how caring he could be when he doesn't have that 'I'm trying to get in your pants' facade up.

"And my dad. He actually listened to the story about my dad." I shook my head in amusement.

"Did you tell him the whole story?--- Like you know, how you dealt with it?"

"I just told him that I chugged a bottle of beer and was sad for a while." I forced a smile at the end.

"You didn't tell him about..." Lexi trailed off and was looking a little embarrassed, "You know, the rest?"

My face went completely blank, I knew what she was talking about. "I don't think anyone should have to hear that story."

I didn't tell Blake everything that happened when my mom and dad got a divorce, I told him how my mom dealt with it completely but I didn't tell him all my side of the story. I left out bug chunks of information that no one else needs to hear.

"I'm sorry I brought it up." Lexi looked down in embarrassment.

I squeezed her hand, "Hey, don't worry about it. I- I'm just not comfortable with it, just yet." I looked directly at her side profile.

She tilted her head towards me and spoke, "I know and you don't ever have to be comfortable with it. Okay?" She raised her forehead.

"Yeah..." I forced a smile and trailed off.

"Anyways, on a lighter note. I think Storm is definitely starting to fall for you." As Lexi said that I wanted to jump and cheer but I didn't want anyone knowing I like him, not yet at least. Until I figure it out for myself. Instead I looked at Lexi funny and said, "Storm? In love? He'd be caught dead before actually committing to someone." I chuckled.

"Well you're telling me all this stuff about how he's being so nice and caring to you. Plus he hasn't been seen with another girl for like a month now, Kate." Lexi reminded me.

"That boy has his ways around, trust me he's seeing other girls but he's keeping it low key." I rolled my eyes.

"You don't know that! C'mon! Maybe you'll be known as the girl who turned the bad boy into a softie." She nudged my arm.

"Nope." I snorted, "I'll be known as another one of his hoes, trust me." I started laughing uncontrollably.

"Ms. Chandler and Ms. Fulton, if you have better things to discuss to the class then please step up and teach, if you don't then keep your mouths shut, unless you wanna spend detention with me after school talking about how your grades are hanging from a mere millimetre thick string." Lexi and I was startled as the teacher started hollering at us, I completely forgot we were in class. I was just so into the conversation and plus the teacher isn't even teaching. She's just on the board drawing something like a shredded Mona Lisa.

"Sorry Ms. Gilbert. Won't happen again." I announced and looked down in embarrassment.

"It better not." She pointed at us with her ruler. Lexi and I started giggling in the back but the teacher didn't seem to notice.
