Ha ha! So thanks to @AngelOwens , I am updating this story. Thank you so much for your comment, and I hope you enjoy. :)

*Justice's P.O.V* 

I watched them intensely. They moved so carelessly. Like nothing else mattered in the world to them. My smile widened. I felt the same way when I danced. Like dance was my escape. Every movement, and bend of the body was just a word being told from a 300 page book. As I looked at the 4 boys in front of me, I didn't see the boys who lost the Biggest Dancing Competition, I see them as 4 boys that love what they do. I couldn't help but feel eyes on me, and I looked over my shoulder at Diggy who was smirking at me. I raised my red cup slightly to my lips and looked back to the performance. I couldn't help but follow my gaze to Princeton who locked eyes with me, then winked. As much as I tried to hide it, I was taken back by the gesture. Once I finally stopped smiling, my cheeks hurt making me realize I was wearing a big smile on my face the whole time. I wasn't gonna be the girl who thought to herself 'What do these feelings mean?' and 'What am I doing?' because I knew. Although it was only with Jacob, I knew that every time Prince flirted with me, or ran his hand through his hair, or even just smiled those beautiful teeth at me, I was growing feelings for him. I knew I was. And that's what hurt even more.

Here I am, At a party arena with 5 boys I met a few days ago, a huge headache, a confusing ex-boyfriend and a red plastic cup full of 'I Don't Know'. The boys got down and started high fiving each other and crowd members. I snuck a look over to Rachel who was texting on her phone with a huge smile on her face. Although I didn't really care, why did I have the slightest feeling Jacob was involved? When The boys came over by Diggy and Rachel, Prince eyes searched around the lot, I guess looking for me, but when Rachel quickly put her phone away, and looked at Prince, I saw it. That Glow. It was the way she looked at him. Her eyes full of love, care, and tenderness. As obvious as it was, that wasn't what surprised nor hurt me. What surprised me was that, that was the same look I saw from Diggy earlier when I hugged him. Like he would protect me. Just being in his arms brought warmth to me over the cold chilly night, but what also also surprised me, was that Princeton does it to. At school, when we locked arms with each other, and walked out of the building, of course we were playing and being idiots, but just for a split second, a split second, I saw that glow in his eye. The same kind that Rachel gave him and Diggy Gave me. But that's not all. What hurts the absolute most, is that's the same exact glow in my eyes, every time I see Jacob. The same boy that I grew up with. The boy I played legos with. The boy I had food fights with. The boy I went to school dances with, The boy I kissed, The boy I danced with, The boy I cared for, but most importantly the boy I Loved. And knowing that all this was a lie or even close to it, makes bones weaken. Makes my heart shatter piece by piece.

My thoughts where interrupted when the boys came by. "Did you like It or What!?" Ray asked enthusiastically. I smiled and nodded. "It was Great" I said really trying to put my banging headache aside. "I'm glad. maybe we'll be good enough to get a routine in with you" Prod said. I smirked. "Your not that good" I replied playfully. "If Jacob was your trainer, I think we're better than 'good enough'" Daniel said jokingly. My smile slowly disappeared. I took it as an insult most definitely. Jacob didn't 'train' me. I danced because I loved it. Dancing doesn't come with instructions, it never did for me. I always let my body flow freely. I would've replied, but my headache increased, and this cup of alcohol wasn't making it better. I sighed and the tension was so cut you could cut it with a butcher knife. Prince was shooting daggers at Daniel, as he looked around the lot not having a clue what he just did. That made me even madder. "Prince, can you drive me home?" I asked pointing to my motorcycle. Without hesitating, he nodded. I hugged the other 3 boys apart from Diggy and said my goodbyes. I shot Rachel one more look before I heard her say words that literally shattered my heart in pieces. "Love You Too Jacob"

*Diggy's P.O.V* 

As I was thinking some pretty dirty thoughts about Justice, A smirk appeared on my face. She turned around, and even her hazel orbs glowed in the night. Before she could see my blush at my thoughts, She'd turned around drinking out of her cup. As I looked at her leopard pants remembering our conversation, I smiled. When I looked at her face, she was smiling widely, wider than I thought she had since i've known her, but when I followed her stare, and saw Princeton who sent a wink her way, I could feel my hear hurt a bit. If I could control it, I would. All these stories i've read, and movies I saw, I think "How did they fall for each other in such little time?', but now i'm actually in the situation, and I understand. You can't help it. You can't help the fact that you've grown feelings for a person so fast, because little do we know, Our hearts have a brain of their own. They'll love regardless of what we want to believe. They'll love with everything we have, while time is oblivious.

"Yeah, It was awesome!" She said trying to be enthused. But it didn't meet her eyes, you could tell she was stress. Ever since earlier at lunch, she looked tired, sad, stressed, upset, and most importantly in pain. "Maybe if we're good enough, we'll get a routine in with you" Prod said playfully. "You're not that good" She replied cheekily. Without thinking, I replied. "If Jacob was your trainer, i think we're better than 'Good enough'" I said playfully. It suddenly got silent, the only noise being the party people around the vacant lot. She looked at me, and I knew she was angry. Although I didn't understand why. Maybe it was because I spoke of her 'Best friend'. I could feel Prince's eyes burning holes into me, but I refused to look, so I looked around the lot at Rachel who was happily talking on the phone with someone. I was expecting the worse, waiting for the harsh reply. Right after I thought we were making progress, I messed up. No doubt, it was my fault. But then, I got the unexpected: Nothing. No reply. Justice didn't treat me, put me on the spot, and that surprised me, but then I realized, She wasn't mad. She was hurt. And as much as I wanted to look into the hazel eyes, or wrap my arms around her body, I couldn't bring myself to see her hurt. "Prince, can you take me home?" She said, and immediately I felt my face fall to the floor. I snapped my head over to the circle again, as she pointed to her motorcycle. Without another second, he agreed, and they walked off to her motorcycle underneath the streetlight, making it more visible to what happened next. He got on, followed by her, and she wrapped her hands around his waist. Leaning her head on the arch of his back. She slowly closed her eyes contemplating on something. I couldn't deal with myself. I pushed her away. I am pushing her away. I basically let her ride in the wind with Prince. I wanted her badly, but she wanted to be left alone. Although none of the boys knew about my reoccured feelings for Justice, because I basically let Prince have her (again), what Chresanto whispered in my ear widened my eyes. "Bro, You're in last place for her love" He said. I furrowed my eyebrows. I tried to play it off acting dumb, like I didn't know what he was talking about, but it was obvious. He knew. But what confused me was 'last place'. I knew Prince liked her, but that still didn't make me 'last place' as if Chres could read my mind, he nodded his head over somewhere, and that's when i followed his gaze. There he was. Standing there, talking to Rachel. What was he doing here? He locked eyes with me, and a smirk played on his face. "What's Jacob doing here?" Prod asked. Then I put the pieces together, and why I was 'Last Place'. I said the one final word that made my head start to hurt. "Justice".
