you really think I would want you back when you act like a douchebag all the time and can’t stop screwing with the year 11’s? And now THIS?! -Liv.
    “ I gave him tips on his composition and colours; it’s not like that means we are married now. God that boy is such an idiot!”
    From Jamie: Lucas? Why? I just gave you a ride home because you were sick. He knows nothing more than that. I ’ll go to the head first thing and explain before he can do any damage. Don’t worry baby, it’ll be ok, I promise. -J X
    To Jamie: Will explain later. Lily is here. X
    Lily and I sat bitching about Luke through another DVD , but he never got back to me. I don’t know what I expected of him; I was starting to get a headache with worrying about what he was saying to all of my friends. Would they believe him? I wasn’t sure how many people knew about my crush on Mr Matthews, but I bet it was more than just my immediate friends.
    Realisation hit me in the face like a slap. “Lily? You can’t tell anyone what Mr Matthews said to me. If Luke hears about it, it’ll just make everything worse when there is really nothing there!”
    “ Don’t worry, Liv. I’m not stupid, I’d never say anything to anyone; I swear it.” She crossed her fingers over her heart with her promise and I hugged her tightly until she couldn’t breathe.
    She had to go after the film as she had to do some studying for a mock test we had in the morning. She left so fast she forgot her DVD so I needed to remember that in the morning , I left it by the door so I wouldn’t forget it. I felt so alone and confused about everything, I didn’t even know what Jamie and I had and it was about to be ruined by a stupid boy before I even had a chance to find out! My head hurt; I headed up to bed early and sent Jamie a good night message as I tucked myself in.

    A few minutes after I’d closed my eyes I heard my door bell ring. I should have known better than go to bed; even though I’d never lost anything of Lily’s yet she still never trusted anyone with anything.
    “ Lily, you know I would have brought your DVD to you in the morning” I called through the door while I unlocked it. I pulled the door open and was grabbed into a tight embrace by Jamie before he pressed a finger under my chin lifting my lips up for a kiss. He let me go so I could breathe again. “Jamie, what are you doing here?” I looked around frantically for anyone watching a strange man knocking on my door.
    “ I couldn’t let you go to sleep without a good night kiss could I? And don’t worry; I checked for your parents cars before I knocked.” I blushed as his thumb stroked over my cheek. “I promise I’ll make everything right in the morning, try not to worry. I’ll tell Mr Wright that I gave you a lift home as you were ill and that’s it; that really is all that happened. That day.” He grinned and placed a small kiss to my lips. “He might ask you into his office to clarify but I’ll tell him that’s all I know and heard of until you came to me and told me about Luke after school today. Do you know why he’s doing it?” I looked down at the floor; he put his finger under my chin again for me to look up at him.
    “ Erm… Come in a minute.” I grabbed his hand and pulled him in the hall; I quickly locked the door again and pulled him up the stairs to my room. I locked my door just in case my parents came back and leaned up against it looking at him as he sat down on the end of my bed, not knowing what to say.
    He gazed around my room , his eyes taking in all of the photographs and paintings that lined my walls and shelves; some landscapes from walks with my Uncle Austin and the rest, portraits of my family and friends. “Did you do all of these?”
    “ Yup.” I said with the ‘p’ popping on my lips; my back still pinned to my bedroom door. He stood up to get a closer look at one of my paintings that was hanging opposite my bed. It was a picture of a hallway; the
