It had now been officially two months since he asked her out. The funny thing was... They only went out for show, it had no real meaning in it and they never actually go out unless it was necessary... 2 months ago... Madison looked around the room. It was a quiet afternoon at school and she rather enjoyed these kind of days. Days that went by quickly and weren't excessively long. She sighed and looked out the window. The sky had suddenly cleared itself of the creepy looking dark clouds. It was now cloudless and blue out. "Madison!" "Hey Carly," muttered Madison, turning her attention away from the window. "What do you want?" "I heard you and James broke up! Are you okay?" she asked. She sat down in the desk next to hers and sat, looking at her attentively. "Yeah so? He was cheating, of course I would break up with him," Madison said coolly and she looked back out the window. "Do you want to clear your mind? A walk maybe?" "No Carly, I'm fine." "Are you sure..." "I said I'm fine Carly!" she said rather loudly, a hint of an irritated tone in her voice. "Just leave it alone," she said and she stood up. "Sorry... but I'm going home." "Oh... I'll go with you." "As you please." Madison avoided the small girl that walked beside her as she walked home. She wasn't the kind of person that spoke much... That was why James had broken up with her. "I really thought James was the right one for you. He didn't seem to mind your... quietness. I guess I was wrong." "Carly... It's really fine... I..." "Carly!" Madison, rather startled looked around. She saw an older boy standing behind them. He had dark, messy hair that fell into his eyes and dark eyes to match his hair. He was medium built and stood about 6'0". He was actually rather handsome. "Alex!" exclaimed Carly. She went and hugged him. "It's been a while. Madison noticed him holding a bit closer that what usual friends do. Carly didn't seem to take notice of this. "Madison, this is Alex Mason, he's one of my best friends!" "Nice to meet you..." I said quietly. "Same," he said. "Madison? Pretty name," he complimented and he smiled gently at her. "Thank you..." "Sorry Alex... Madison doesn't really talk that much. I mean she can, but she's..." "I'm what?" "Haha, nothing!" laughed Carly. She grinned and smiled at her. Madison laughed a bit and looked away. Carly was such an innocent girl and didn't know what she was saying half the time. "Oh hey! Guess what Alex?! I have a boyfriend!" Madison noticed Alex all of a sudden seem tense. He bit his lip and he forced a smile. "That's great Carly!" he said. "Well I just wanted you to know!" she giggled. "His name is Liam and I really love him!" "That's nice.." "Yes it is! Well anyways, I have to go! I'll talk to both of you later! And I'll see you at school tomorrow Madison!" she smiled and she quickly walked away. Madison looked at the see boy, Alex. "Hey... I'm guessing you have feelings for Carly?" "What?!" "You just seem upset about her liking some other guy. Am I wrong?" she asked and she raised an eyebrow. "No... you're not wrong. I do... I've loved her for a long time... I just never wanted to ruin our friendship. But that was a mistake..." "Well... Kind of. But she could always secretly like you. She might just be trying to make you jealous." He seemed to lighten at this. He smiled at her. "Perhaps." "Yeah. Anyways I have to go," she said and she turned to walk away when he suddenly grabbed her wrist. Startled she didn't look back. She remained still. "Y-yes?" "Go out with me." "What...?" "Like you said. She might just be trying to make me jealous. If you go out with me... Wouldn't she be jealous?" "Yeah. Probably..." she said quietly. She felt somewhat awkward being in this situation. "So you'll go out with me?" "Yes I will. If it helps you," she said and she looked up at the sky. "Um... please let go of me." "Hm? Oh sorry!" he laughed and he let go of her wrist. "I'll see you once your school is out. Should I go and meet you there?" "If you like..." she said quietly and she turned to look at him. "Are you really okay doing this?" "Yeah it's fine. I just want her to be mine. I will try everything to get her to love me." "Alright then... I'll see you tomorrow," she said and she smiled a bit and waved goodbye to him and left. What had she gotten herself into... She was going to regret this...
