"Mum I am off to school, see you later," I said, rushing towards the door.

"Okay honey, see you later. Bye"

"Deandre honey, how are you?" I asked grinning as I looked at Deandre. "I am fine my darling. May I know how your night went?"Dre said smiling too.

"Uhh... Horrible!! I had a terrible headache," I said, touching my head. "Oh baby, would you mind sharing what caused this headache?" Dre asked, smirking, like she knew why I had the headache.

"It's nothing important," I said. I don't know why, but for some reason I don't want Dre to know yet until I am sure that I have feelings for Liam and he isn't playing me. But I doubt I like him though. I know best friends are not meant to keep secrets and I don't like that Dre doesn't know but I just want to be sure first, you know.

"Oh, don't give me that crap," she said.

"What are you talking about?" I asked, feigning ignorance.

"Valerie, I am your best friend. You remember the best friends code, don't you?" She asked looking at me.

"I do Dre, don't keep secrets from each other" I said to her.

"Good. So why are you keeping a secret from me? A huge one at that, Val. Tell me what's going on," she said.

"It's complicated Dre, believe me when I say you will not understand" I said feeling bad already.

"Test me Val. I am all ears"

"I can't Dre. I don't even understand it myself," I said to Dre.

"What the hell Val, must I repeat every fucking time that I am your best friend and best friends tell each other everything! Everything!! Why can't you tell me?" Dre said shouting already. I know the fact that I am not telling her what's going on hurts her, but as much as it hurts her, it hurts me too. She just has to get that she will get the whole story when the time comes.

"Dre chill, I promise I'll tell you soon, just be patient," I said trying to calm her down.

"I should chill? I can't believe you right now, Valerie" she said. And with that she stormed off. Leaving me to thoughts. I hate it when I have a fight with Dre. I mean who likes to have a fight with their best friend? I hate it. We don't usually fight but when we do, it's always nasty. Why can't I just even tell her? The truth is I just want to be sure of something for once in my life before letting others know.

But now with all these things I have no choice than to tell her. It's not like it is a bad idea telling her though. I just... You know what, I am going to tell her once I get to school.

This is all Liam's fault, if he hadn't behaved like a loser and gotten me in detention, he wouldn't have walked me home and Dre wouldn't have seen me with him and I wouldn't have received a message from him. Arghh! I hate everything that is happening right now. My best friend is angry with me and not in speaking terms with me, and some stupid Liam is  where ever he is now with no troubles. Can my life be worse than this?

Soon I was at the school's gate, I went inside the school's building and was walking down the hall to my locker when I heard a voice that I find myself hating right now. For no just reason.

"Hey, Val." I turned swiftly and looked at Liam who was smiling at me. Awww such a cute smile! Shut up Val focus! I scrunched my face making sure that I looked disgusted and asked, "What?"

"Do I always have to meet you in a bad mood?" he said. Although I didn't want to leave, I had to find Dre nonetheless. I turned to leave and he held my hand stopping me from moving. Oh those hands felt so soft and firm. Valerie shut up already!

"Is something wrong?" he asked his voice laced with concern. Well I don't know if he was feigning the concern or if he was serious but he looked like he was serious, his eyes showed concern. Oh those beautiful eyes, I could get lost in them. Val focus!

"Fuck off," I said. Immediately, I regretted why I said that, because Liam instantly released my hand like I had a plague and looked at me before walking off. I didn't miss the embarrassment in his eyes because other students were watching the scene and I also didn't miss the hurt.

What have you done Val? I have to look for Dre, because if I don't find her, I'm sure I am going to have a really great emotional breakdown and right now the medicine I need is my best friend.

I looked up and saw the other students still staring at me. Can't people just mind their business? Always prying into other people's affairs. With my last strength I shouted at them,
"Are you guys so jobless? Don't you have classes to attend to? Get going," I said. No one moved an inch, I didn't even expect them to. I had to look for Dre. With that I turned around and went in search of her.

Hey lovelies

What has Val done? Do you think she was being selfish or even stupid by not sharing her problems with Dre. Was she too harsh on Liam?
