Hayley's POV.

"Hayley? Are you alright?" Emily shook me.

"Uh.. Yes. Why?" Shifting my gaze to her.

"You've been staring that floor for almost fifteen minutes." She pointed the floor and she's like giving me a direction.

"Yes, I'm perfectly fine. Don't you worry." I mumbled. It's lunch break already.

"What's up with you anyway? We haven't talked for ages." She said with a laugh.

"Nothing much. Hmmm.. Josh and I are finally together, flunking —close to flunking, Selena— we're friends now, that's all. How 'bout ya?"

"Wait. Friends? Selena? Since when?" She's wearing an astonished look on her face.

"Just yester—

"Hi Hayley, Hi Emily." Selena rushed up to my side and took her sit.

"Hello." I smiled.

"Umm.. Emily? May I borrow Hayley first?" Selena asked Emily who's staring us, stunned. But before Emily could open her mouth to speak, Selena grabbed my wrist and led me to the occupied hallway. I peeked at Emily, she looks sad. I should not left her that way, we're having a little chitchat. Then, Selena showed up. It's been a long time since Emily and I have an appropriate talk. What should I do?

"Hayley, I'm really sorry for interrupting you and Emily. This is really urgent." She began to sob. I led her to one corner and let her sit.

"Why are you crying Selena? What's wrong?" I asked worriedly.

"I don't know if I left my necklace somewhere or if someone stole it. My sister gave it to me last Christmas." She wailed. Christmas. It seems like I bumped into a wall, my head started to stir up. Mom, Dad.

"Hayley, I really don't know what to do. What if my Dad finds out that I lost it? My sister might get mad at me. I'm gonna be so dead." She threw her arms around me and began to cry on my shoulder.

"We'll think of something. Don't worry, I'll help you." I mumbled as I rub her back. Afterwards, she stopped crying and faced me.

"You will?" She asked. Her face is soaked with tears.

"Yeah. So, in the mean time. We need to save up so that we can replace the necklace of yours as soon as possible." I smiled. I guess, that's fine. At least, I could help her. Now where would I go for help? I don't have any parents at all. I don't want to bother Aunt, Josh and Mrs.Farro.

"Hayley? Are you okay?"

"Oh yes. I'm just.. uh.. Nothing." I whispered.

"It's alright if you're not be able to help me. That's fine, really. I think I can handle the sanction they might give me. I know, it's too much. They're probably over reacting by then." She cried.

"Selena, I promise that I will help you. Don't cry. It will be fine." I told her.

"Really? Oh jeez! Thank you so much Hayley! I really owe you a big one!" She flashed her smile.

"Anytime Sel. Oh how much is that necklace you've lost by the way?" I asked worriedly.

"Thirty dollars." She bit her lip. Now where in the world I can get thirty dollars?

"What? Thirty dollars!" I exclaimed. "Sorry, I'm just surprised." What am I going to do? I can't and I musn't back out now. I don't have that amount of money in my hands. Oh boy. Here we go again.

Emily's POV.

The bell rang and the students hurriedly packed their bags and got out of the classroom. Zac is waiting for me in the parking lot. On the other hand, Hayley seemed to be problematic this afternoon. I wonder what happened.

The classroom has been almost cleared, well I'm the last one to buzz off. I heard a bunch of girls laughing in the comfort room near the exit.

"Exactly! Hayley thinks that I really lost my necklace! I wonder what she's gonna do to help me have another necklace." A familiar voice said.

"Selena, what's your point? Why are you doing this to Hayley?" A girl asked. So, Selena.

"Whatever the reason is. It's probably none of your business, Dolly." Selena replied. Well, that was enough. I've heard enough, She's playing a trick to get Hayley. I have to tell this to Hayley as soon as possible before everything gets worst. I run and look for Zac's car over the parking lot.

"Zac? Where's Josh?" I asked as soon as I opened the car's door. I gave him a peck on the cheek.

"Why are you looking for Josh? I'm jealous, Emily." He teased.

"Oh don't be. Actually, I'm looking for Hayley but I bet she's with Josh. So that's it." I told him.

"Okay. I guess, we'll catch 'em later at the house. If not, we'll find a way to find them."

"Thanks Zac." I relaxed on my seat and began to think to about what I've heard a while ago. What would Hayley do? What would she feel? Oh poor Hayley.

Josh's POV.

"Hayley, tomorrow's the party. Are you really sure that we will go?" I asked her. We're on my house, chilling and doing our assignment for tomorrow. Selena's party will probably start at 7pm. I really don't have any idea, but my guess must be right.

"Josh. How many times do I have to tell you? It's a yes. We are going. If you don't want to, I will ask Emily to go with me. If she's not available. I'll go alone." She mumbled as she work on our assignment.

"I'm going with you. I'm sorry." I replied. I knwe I let her down again. She appears to be not in the mood tonight, to talk, to laugh or even to be herself. I guess so. "What's wrong?"

"No, there's none. Don't worry about me." She glanced at me then back to her paper.

"Okay." I mumbled. I started to work on other problems in the textbook and we remained silent.

I'm busy with calculating answers when my head began to ache. It's like my head will crack into two.

Hayley's POV.

How am I going to help Selena? Should I take a work after class? Like part-time job? Baby sit? I asked myself. I can't think properly, my mind is focused on something else. Afterwards, Josh's pencil drop on the table. I look up and saw him rubbing his forehead. He's trying to fight the pain.

"Joshie? You okay?" I stood up from my seat and reached for him.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Could you get me a glass of water?" He requested. I ran up to the sink and filled a glass of water.

"Thanks." he muttered. "Hayley, I guess. I can't walk you home. We'll wait for Zac so someone can at least—

"It's fine Josh. I can go home alone. I can handle myself. I guess you better rest now." I helped him get up and led him to his room upstairs.

"Sleep well Joshie." I smiled. "I'm really sorry a while ago. And. I love you."

"That's okay Hayles. I understand. I love you so much. More than you'll ever know. Come closer." He said, his hand is signaling for me to come close. I leaned in, I thought he's gonna tell me something but instead he pressed his lips to mine and wrapped his arms on my body. He deepened the kiss and slowly I gave in. When we're going too much, we pulled away from each other and muttered our apology.

"See ya tomorrow Josh. Sweet dreams. Get well soon, okay?" I mumbled and left him on his room. Is he really sick? How can he manage to be like that. Hmm. I gathered our things and left their house.

The night is really sending a sad feeling to me. Everything is quiet. I sat down on the sidewalk and think about Mom and Dad. I really miss them.
