If you are new to this- Please go read the other parts to understand the following! Thank you!

- Jakes POV -

What a day. Zoey left two days ago. It's Saturday now. I've been away from school since Monday, or most of Monday at least. Whatever. It's actually been quite relaxing at home not having to worry about work, but... It's also been the strangest week of my life. I've also been getting a lot of calls from Lia and Daisy. And.. Sean. I can't help but smile at the fact, it's probably the biggest smile that's been on my face all week. Well since it's Saturday why don't I go get some fresh air? Go to the park maybe, get an icee? That seems so good right now. I will do it!

- Sean's POV -

S: " Lia told you what!? "

H: " She told me that literally nobody knows where Jake is. Zoey went to his house the other day and he wasn't there. "

S: " W-What!? This can't be possible! "

H: " Almost anything is possible, Sean. "

Z: " At least we have him out of our lives! Gosh, I was getting sick just looking at him! "

L: " Guys I think Zander has a point. "

They all nodded to it. I did. It wasn't real of course. They looked happy, I couldn't let them down. Am I the only one who thinks something is off about this situation!? I miss Jake... I know he didn't say those words on purpose. He would never, his smile was so genuine, then again, he must've had a reason to say that stuff. Perhaps it was Drew... Daisy..? No. I can't bring Daisy into this... Right? NO, I can't! What is this feeling? I think I'm jealous that Jake likes Daisy, he thinks I like Daisy, but every time I look at her, all I can think of is the cute smile Jake gives around her. I don't know this feeling, I've never felt it before. It makes me nervous but overly excited to see him. But he hasn't picked up any of my calls, so it isn't wrong to be worried, right?

M: " Hey, I almost forgot! The School Dance is today! "

H: " Wha- But it's Saturday? "

M: " Don't School Dances always occur on Saturdays?? "

S: " Yeah, they do. Every single year we've had them on a Saturday. And it is today, are you guys planning on going? "

M: " Hell Yeah! "

L: " Sounds like fun! Do you wanna attend with me, Zander? "

Z: * Sigh * " I suppose. But only because you're going! "

H: " In that case, I'll go. What about you, Sean? "

S: " Sure? I don't have a date though I'll warn you about that. "

M: " We need DATES!? "

S: " Heh, Yes Milly, we need dates. "

M: " Alright who is going with me because there is no way I am asking Elliot! "

H: " Why won't you ask Elliot? "

M: " I don't know! I think I'm nervous or something! It's not like he's a crush or anything! "

L: " I sense sarcasm. "

M: " Nooo. Ya think? "

S: " I'll help you ask Elliot out. I'm sure he'll say yes. "

M: " Wait, Really!? "

S: " Of course! "

H: " Wait... then who would be my date? I don't have anyone in mind. "
