_Brooke's POV_

"What? Who is it?" I say.

"Just come here."

I stumble out to the hallway, trying to not wake Julia up. I shut the door, and it's Hayes.

"What the fuck do you want?" I say.

"Brooke, I've always loved you, please forgive me for what I did."

"Hayes, I can forgive, but not forget.
What you said hurt me. And you promised me that you would never hurt me, you broke that promise. Maybe we can be friends, but I'm not ready to date you. I don't even know if I still like you that way."

"I understand, and I don't know why I did that. And I would love to become friends. But just know, I still like you. Maybe we can hang out tomorrow? Start over? As friends?"

"Um, I don't think I'm ready yet."

"Whenever you're ready to, just tell me." Hayes started to walk away.

"Wait! Yeah, we can hangout." Hayes started to smile.

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Okay, I'll talk to you about it tomorrow, goodnight."

"Goodnight."

I walk back into my bedroom and lay down. I can't fall asleep now. I can't stop thinking about Hayes. Do I like him? Am I ready? But, Taylor. Do I like Taylor? I think I like them both. Oh my god. I'm in a love triangle between Hayes, Taylor, and me.

I wake up the next morning at 10:30. Great, I slept in again. Julia is in the bathroom getting ready.

I take a shower and wash my hair and body. I wear pink shorts, a black and white striped tshirt, and black vans. I just braid my hair and wear no makeup.

"I'm gonna go downstairs to get a pancake. Want me to get you one?" Julia asks me.

"Yes!"

Julia smiles and walks out, and then I realize, she isn't wearing her crutches.

"JULIA LEE LEMIEUX GET YOUR ASS UP HERE!"

"What!!"

"You aren't wearing your crutches."

"They bother me!"

"So! Unless you want your ankle to get better, you have to wear them."

"Fine!" Julia grabs her crutches to go downstairs and I follow her.

We were just getting ready to leave, when Shawn says:

"Julia, can we talk?"

_Julia's POV_

"Julia, can we talk?" Shawn says.

"Yeah, I guess." Shawn and I go to the backyard.

"Julia, I'm sorry for what I said. I should've believed you instead of stupid dumbass rumors. I love you so much, will you forgive me? And possibly be my girlfriend?"

I just look at him, I don't know what to say.

"Maybe this'll change your mind."

Shawn started playing my favorite song, Classic by MKTO.

Ooh girl you're shining
Like a 5th avenue diamond
And they don't make you like they used to
You're never going out of style

Ooh pretty baby
This world might've gone crazy
The way you save me
Who can blame me
When I just wanna make you smile?

I wanna thrill you like Michael
I wanna kiss you like Prince
Let's get it on like Marvin Gaye
Like Hathaway
Write a song for you like this

You're over my head
I'm out of my mind
Thinking I was born in the wrong time
One of a kind, living in a world gone plastic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you,
Baby you're so classic

Four dozen of roses
Anything for you to notice
All the way to serenade you
Doing it Sinatra style

Ima pick you up in a Cadillac
Like a gentleman bringin' glamour back
Keep it reel to reel in the way I feel
I could walk you down the aisle

I wanna thrill you like Michael
I wanna kiss you like Prince
Let's get it on like Marvin Gaye
Like Hathaway
Write a song for you like this

You're over my head
I'm out of my mind
Thinking I was born in the wrong time
It's love on rewind,
Everything is so throwback-ish (I kinda like it, like it)
Out of my league
Old school chic
Like a movie star
From the silver screen
You're one of a kind living in a world gone plastic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic

Baby you're class and baby you're sick
I never met a girl like you ever til we met
A star in the 40s, centrefold in the 50s
Got me tripping out like the sixties
Hippies Queen of the discotheque
A 70s dream and an 80s best
Hepburn, Beyoncé, Marilyn, Massive
Girl you're timeless, just so classic

You're over my head I'm out of my mind
Thinking I was born in the wrong time
It's love on rewind,
Everything is so throwback-ish (I kinda like it, like it)
Out of my league
Old school chic
Like a movie star
From the silver screen
You're one of a kind living in a world gone plastic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic
Baby you're so classic

"Shawn, yes, I will take you back."

He looked so happy, he ran and hugged me for what felt like forever.

"Shawn?"

"Yeah?"

"Ankle."

"Oh, yeah, sorry. I'm just excited!"

We kiss and even though it was a small peck, it was the best kiss we ever had.

_Taylor's POV_

Julia and Shawn come back hand in hand. Man, I wish that was me and Brooke.

"Okay guys, let's go." I say as we all get in the car.

"Taylor, can I ask you something?" Brooke says.

"What is it?"

"What were you going to ask me that one night, but didn't say?"

"Uh, I sent it to the wrong person."

Brooke looked heartbroken by those words. See, this always happens! I always screw up!
