"Give me your phone." Hayden grinned and I tilted my head. "Just give it to me." He repeated and I pulled out my phone from my pocket and handed it to him. "Here's my number, call me anytime you want."

I took my phone out of his hands to see if he had actually added his number to my contact list. "Wow," I tried to hide my laughter. "You're not even subtle about the fact that you want me to call you."

Hayden shrugged his shoulders. "It's so we can talk about the project." He explained, "But I know how much you wanted my number—"

"Okay," I cut him off. "You're getting a little ahead of yourself." I laughed as I shook my head. He must be dreaming because in fact, I didn't want his number at all. "We'll talk only about the project, we can also plan a day where we can meet up so we have extra time to work on the project." I clarified and Hayden nodded his head in agreement.

"Hey, Khloe!" I turned around to see Kiera walking towards Hayden and I with a big smile on her lips.

"Hey, Kiera." I smiled and her eyes drifted towards Hayden. I was confused until Kiera cleared her throat and I realized that she wanted me to introduce her to Hayden. "Hayden, this is my best friend Kiera," I said and Kiera smiled satisfied. "Kiera, this is Hayden."

"Hey," Kiera waved at Hayden. "Nice to meet you. I've heard so much about you." Kiera said and I nudged her shoulder.

Hayden laughed, "Nice to meet you, Kiera." Kiera gave him a warm smile in response. "I have to go, but I'll see you, girls, later." He looked back at me. "Remember to call me, Khloe."

Kiera let out a gasp beside me. "He gave you his number?" She questioned and I nodded my head hesitantly. "Well, that was fast."

"It's not like that, Keira," I said quickly before she made up any more silly ideas in her head. "We were partnered for a photography project. He gave me his number so that we could talk about the project and stuff." I explained but Kiera still had a look on her face that told me that she didn't believe me. "I'm not lying." I giggled.

"I believe you." Kiera laughed. "He seems really nice." She said and I nodded my head.

Usually after school Kiera and I would wait for our other friends. My friend group became smaller after Aiden and I split.

Of course, Kiera and Yasmin wouldn't continue to hang out with Aiden and his friends after what happened to me and I loved them for that. Along with Yasmin her boyfriend Xander Lu would hang out with us, and Noah Turner who has known Kiera for years so he instantly became my friend too.

"Hey," Noah smiled and gave Kiera and I a quick hug.

I knew that Noah was completely in love with Kiera, but she was too oblivious to notice. Yasmin and Xander knew it too.

Sometimes I felt the need to look Kiera in the eyes and tell her that Noah was in love with her, but I couldn't do that for Noah's sake. I respected him and he was also my friend. I knew that if I ever did say something to Kiera, he would never forgive me. Noah didn't want to ruin their friendship especially because everyone knows Kiera only sees Noah as a friend. Every month she was telling me how she thought a different guy was cute.
