"So, please don't tell me you called me today to finally tell me you're fucking the secretary lady at school" I teased Zack as we sat in a booth in a coffee shop over spring break. Quite a bit of time had passed. Winter break and Christmas, which was amazing by the way, and then half of the second semester. It was finally spring break and I was so ready for my senior year to be over.

Zack chuckled and shook his head, "Not today my friend, but I did want to tell you about something."

"Well?" I said, basically on the edge of my chair, "Out with it."

"Okay, okay," he grinned, "I got into the school I wanted!"

"Holy shit really? I'm so happy for you man!"

"Yep," he said proudly, "And it's the school Alex and you looked at and applied to. So you'll have two reasons to visit from your big fancy school now."

I cocked my head to the side, "Two reasons? What's the second reason?"

Zack frowned, "Uh, there's me and there's Alex. Two reasons. Oh wait, actually three. I think Rian is going there too with Cass."

"Wait, what? Alex is going to school with me." I looked at him. Zack's expression gave it all away. "That's what he's been saying all this time. Was he lying? What's he told you?"

"Fuck," he said, "Fuck, I thought he'd told you. I thought you knew."

"Knew what?" I screeched, trying not to freak the fuck out.

Zack paused. I knew this probably sucked for him but I needed to know. Especially since I was never going to get it out of Alex.

"He didn't... get accepted into your college." But by that point I had already come to the conclusion on my own. And fuck, it hurt.

Zack apologized profusely as I walked out of that coffee shop, furiously typing a text out to Alex. Telling him to call me as soon as he fucking could. It wasn't Zack's fault though.

"Look man, it's not your fault," I assured him. "Thank you for telling me."

"It still shouldn't have been me."

"Well, if you didn't then who knows if he ever would've," I said bitterly. My phone buzzed and a picture of me and Alex popped up on the screen. "He's calling. I'm gonna take this. Congrats again. I'll text you later man."

"Sure," Zack nodded, backing away, "Talk to you later."

I wave goodbye and press my phone to my ear.

"Hey baby, what's up?" Alex said, obviously unaware that I was angry just based off of the text.

"Don't 'hey baby' me, fucker," I cursed. "What is wrong with you?"
