.*Hayley's POV*
today was the last day of school. me and Meagan went to class together and finished off the day on a good note. we said goodbyes to everyone and walked outside. Patrick was standing outside of his car waiting for me. "hey babe! I have a surprise for you..." "hey! and what is it?" "close your eyes!" "alright." he covered my eyes and put a paper in front of me. I opened my eyes and covered my mouth in shock. "Patrick! is this for tonight?" "yeah! I was thinking we could go on a date tonight... what do you say?" "of course babe!" I said and kissed him. he drove me home and I hugged him goodbye. "see you at 6 babe!" "alright!" "love you!" he drove off. I walked inside and went in my room. I threw my book bag on my bed and opened my closet door. "hey hayley?" "yeah?" "you didn't even say hi to me when you walked in!" "sorry mom. I was excited. me and Patrick are going on a date!" "cool love! have fun." "thanks. love you mom!" "love you." I searched through my closet and found a dress. it was black and strapless. I took out my converses and put them on. I had 3 hours to get ready. I straightened my long brown hair and made sure my blue could show. I pulled it out and curled that. it didn't look bad! I started to do my makeup. I put on black eyeliner, mascara, and Chapstick. I may be dressed up, but I will not wear lipstick! I called Patrick. "hey. I'm ready, so if you are, you can come now if you want." "alright. I'll be there in like 20 minutes." "okay! bye babe!" "bye!"
*Patrick's POV*
hayley had told me she loved me. I do love her, but after last night, pete was the one I loved. no. I loved hayley. that didnt matter right now. I'm ready. I walked into the kitchen. "hey mom! I'm heading to pick up my bo-girlfriend." "alright baby! love you!" "love you too!" I walked outside and got in my car. I drove down to her house and walked to the front door. I knocked a few times. someone finally opened the door. "hello?" "hey hayley!" "hi babe!" i grabbed her hand and helped her downy he stairs. I opened her door and closed it as she got in. I walked around the front of the car and opened the drivers door. "how was your day at school?" "fine! I missed you yesterday. what did you do?" my eyes opened wide and my stomach dropped. "m-me? nothing. sat at home." "you okay?" "yeah. I just, I'm fine!" "okay!"we drove silently the rest of the way there. I pulled into the parking lot and I helped her out. she followed closely behind me. as we got in the lady gave us our seats. we got a booth and she sat across from me. we ordered our food and talked about alot of stuff. school, past, relationships, everything. I felt like she was a different person because I found out alot of new stuff about her! as we paid our bill, hayley mentioned that she left her phone at home. "you can use mine!" "thanks babe." I nodded and headed out the door. we drove home. she got out and held onto my shoulders. "hey... so I need to talk to you.." "okay? everything alright?" "yeah." we walked inside and I was getting nervous. "mom? dad?" no answer. home alone. "alright. you can sit on the couch hayley. " "thanks." "okay so what's wrong?" "today, you've been acting really weird. what happened last night?" "nothing happened! me and pete hang out that was it." "what did pete do to you baby?" "nothing! I swear hayley!" "alright." I leaned over and kissed her. she sat on my lap to where our faces were even and her legs were on the couch. she kissed me. I kissed back. her hands massaged my back and i held her up. she then moved her hands up and held my neck. she smiled and I kissed her again. she flipped me over so I was laying on my back. she laid on her stomach and we continued to make out. I felt horrible. but she was so good at this. her kisses were very good, but there was something missing. was it Pete's rough touch, or was it I wasn't putting enough love into it? I released out of a kiss and began speaking. "wanna watch a movie?" "sure!" we watched a movie and it was 10 by that time. "alright. ready to go home?" "yeah I guess, thanks for tonight babe." "welcome!" I dropped her off and gave her a kiss goodbye. I got back home to see pete on my doorstep. "Pete! what are you doing here?" "I got lonely." "come inside." he followed me.
*Pete's POV*
I missed Patrick. I loved hayley! don't get me wrong, but I felt like Patrick was mine. "can I stay again? I have a bag in my car." "sure pete, but I have to tell you something." "yeah?" "today, I was kissing hayley. something didnt feel right. your kisses are the best. I couldn't get you off of my mind." "I felt the same way with Meagan today. I miss you bro. we can hang out tomorrow right?" "yeah! sure panda! but it'll have to be after 3:30. I have work." "alright. Meagan's coming over at 5." "okay. cool!" I walked over to Patrick and rested my head on his shoulder and pulled him into a loose hug. "I know panda. it's hard." I nodded my head and let a single tear roll down my cheek. "Pete!" "what?" I sniffled. "why are you crying baby?" "no reason." "something's wrong. what is it?" "I just really love you but I really love Meagan." "I know baby." Patrick rubbed my back slowly and sang me a song. we went up to his bedroom. Patrick went in his bed and I followed. "pete... you know this isn't a good idea." "I want to snuggle. pleaseee?" I begged and gave Patrick the biggest puppy eyes I could. "fine! god pete! don't do that! it makes me sad!" I jumped up and down and snuggled next to Patrick. I fell asleep and so did he.
the next morning, I woke up to the sound of Patrick's angelic voice. I got up and looked over the railing from upstairs. he was warming up. I did a quick growl. enough to scare him. "Pete! dude!" "haha. sorry. it was an opportunity. I had to take it." Patrick threw his shoe at me. ""AHH!" i jumped and walked down the stairs. I ran and hugged him from behind. he turned around and kissed me. I ruffled his strawberry blonde hair and smiled. I went in the kitchen and got breakfast. "pete!" "yeah?" i poked my head around the corner. "make me a poptart?" he pleaded and jumped up on the counter. i walked where patrick was and stood in between his legs. my hands rested on his thighs, while my lips roamed patrick's cheek and lips. patrick ruffled my hair and i rested my head on patrick's chest. "patrick, babe, what are we gonna do about this love square? i love you so much." "i dont know babe. i love hayley and you, this should stay a secret, only us. i love you too sweetie." patrick comforted me by rubbing my back and singing songs to me. "i hope he is a gentleman..." i nuzzled my head trying to make it fit deeper in patrick's chest. i jumped up and sat on patrick's lap. he held me like a baby while singing. "babe, i have to go to work. i'll snuggle with you later. okay pete?" "yeah. but i have a question." "ask away!" "can i pick you up?" "sure!" i jumped down and walked outside. as i got home, i kept thinking about patrick.
*Meagan's POV*
I was getting ready to hang out with pete. it was 3:00 so i figured i should wait to head over.
*Patrick's POV*
i walked out of work and looked around the parking lot. there i saw pete. i ran over to him. i pecked him on the cheek. "you look awfully cute in your work outfit." pete said looking at my outfit smirking. "thanks. what did you do when i was gone?" "i wrote a new single!" "ah! awesome!" "wanna see it?" "sure!" at the time we were working on an album called, 'Folie a Deux'. he wrote a song, and the beginning lyrics were, i'm coming apart at the seams, pitching myself for leads in other people's dreams. "Pete! that's already super good man!" "thanks. you know that's my life story right?" "you're that upset?" "yeah, but seeing you makes everything better." he blushed. "you too buddy. now, can we get home so we can be alone for a little?" "yeah." he put the car in drive and we drove towards pete's house.
as we got there, pete ran inside. i dont even know where he went. he disappeared. "pete? pete this isnt funny! where are you!?" i yelled after chasing him inside. i felt something grab me from behind. "pete, seriously?" he bit my ear. i grabbed his face and pulled him closer than ever. i looked at him nervously. pete slowly wrapped his arms around my waist and kissed me hard. he kissed me everywhere from my lips to my neck, making this a make out session. i was enjoying this. we were laying on the couch and pete was on top of me kissing me, each kiss with more heat and passion than the last. time wasnt an object anymore. "pete, what time is it?" "who cares?" he asked laughing. he continued to kiss me and i was kissing back passionately. the next thing we heard was, "PETE!? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!?" "PATRICK! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" it was meagan AND hayley. this wasnt good. i knew we shouldnt have done this! "m-m-eagan!" pete said letting go of my lips and pushing off my chest to get up. hayley pulled me by my shirt and grabbed my hand violently. you could cut the tension in there with a knife. "you have alot of explaining to do patrick." "i uh, i-" "it's not his fault." i looked over to see pete standing next to me. "it's mine. patrick didn't want to, but i did it anyway. i'm sorry. dont blame patrick." hayley looked at both of us and grinned. "it's okay. thanks for telling me the truth." she reached over and hugged pete. "i love you patrick." "i love you too hayley."
*Pete's POV*
"as for you... you have alot of explaining to do, because it WAS your fault." meagan popped her hip and stuck her foot out. "i don't know what got into me! i dont really know what possessed me to do that meg!" "okay so you just did it to 'experiment'?" "yeah.. i guess. i'm a teenage boy! i have to figure it out somehow!" "ugh! just tell me the truth!" "i don't know the truth!" i began to get overwhelmed with twenty different feelings. i felt sad, aggravated, and mostly- guilty. i wanted to tell her the truth but i knew if i did, patrick wouldnt have hayley in his life. she became infuriated. "you know what? i think you should think about this." "think about how i feel? do you want to know how i feel?" "yes pete! thats what im asking you!" "fine. i want to go upstairs, and have an emotional breakdown. im humiliated meagan! put yourself in my position! i dont know what to tell you! i just- i love-" i couldnt finish the sentence. i ran up the stairs and sat in my room. i put my face in a pillow. i picked up my notebook, and started writing. 'i've got troubled thoughts and self esteem to match, what a catch'. water droplets hit the notebook. i threw it on the ground and wished i never wouldve told patrick 'who cares' about the time. i knew i shouldve checked it! i heard the front door shut. my door swung open. "pete, you okay?" "no." i sighed. "look, i know what we did was wrong, but its okay. meagan will cool off in a little." "im not worried about meagan!" "then what are you worried about babe?" "losing you! there i said it!" i got up and walked into my bathroom. patrick followed. "pete! we're best friends, no matter what! if we're a couple, or just band members! i'm always gonna feel the same about you!" "like a cheating-two-timing-loser? because im pretty sure thats what i am!" "no youre not! it was my fault all this ever happened." "no it's not." "okay, but still. dont give up on me man! i love you alot!" "i love you too, but at the same time, i love meagan. i want you though, patrick." "me?" "yes you!" i shed another tear and patrick wiped it away. "pete, please dont cry. you're perfect just the way you are." i broke down comepletely and crumbled to my knees. "pete!" he lifted me up and put my head in his arms. "listen. you cant let meagan see you like this. let it all out now." "patrick. i need to tell you something." "yeah?" "it's very important. i mean urgent."
