The week had gone by so quickly, the two would see each other in between classes, after school and when they weren’t together they were texting each other. Alice and Shane weren’t all that bothered, they still got to see Bette at recess and lunch but James was missing his study partner and most importantly his best friend. He waited outside Bette’s class hoping to catch her before she left for the weekend. He got a few death stares and a hard push by a few of Josh’s mates.

“Bette!” he called over the sea of students leaving the classroom.
“Hey James, what’s up?”
“I was wondering if you wanted to catch up this weekend, it feels like I never see you anymore and there’s a sci-fi convention this weekend, wanna come?” He asked enthusiastically.
“That sounds so cool!” Bette sounded convinced at first, “But I have plans this weekend, sorry maybe next time.” As she started to walk away James called out.
“We use to hang out after school and on weekends but it feels like you are busy” The halls quietened down, everyone eager to start their weekend early.

“I’ve been hanging out with Tina a lot over the past few days, just getting to know her. We’ve become friends” James sighed knowing Bette still loved him but he felt replaced.
“I’m glad you are having fun with Tina, I’m sorry” Bette bit her lip knowing she had to tell him about Tina.
“James…we’ve been best friends since I can remember, I want to be able to tell you the truth” They began to walk out of the building as Bette nervously dragged her feet. “Tina and I…we are sort of…seeing each other” James heart began to pound loudly in his chest, he knew Bette was bisexual though he can’t remember the last guy she dated or even liked.  “Please say something”
“I gotta go have a good weekend” James left Bette just standing there on the court yard.

Though most people were out on a Friday night Bette decided to invite Alice and Shane over to watch movies at her house. The three were lying on beds Bette; Alice held a pillow in front of her face as someone was being axed on screen. “Alice it’s not that scary” Shane pulled down the pillow forcing her to watch it. They were giggling as Bette’s phone vibrated next to her causing her to jump. It was Tina.
