My phone rings. I giggle. I text,

I sigh a breath of relief. It wasn't her!!!!! yeah! I kiss my phone, in a happier mood.

RIGHT. ALRIGHT, SEE YOU AT SCHOOL.


YAY. ._.*


I put my phone down and get ready. I eat one of my moms muffins and head out. My friends all smile. I sit down. Darry, my least favorite elbows me after we get our food. "Cassie's checking you out, dude!" I turn and see her look away. The new girl at school. she was pretty. I could care less, but I'm single and starting to hate it. I walk over to her and sit. "Hi." I say. She blushes.

"I'm Eli."

"I know." she says in a quiet voice.

"You have really pretty eyes." I say, flirting.


(Juno (brandy))

I sit in the cafetiria. There is the boy I've been really liking, if only he'd keep his ass out off trouble so I could see him. He looks at me. He's probably looking at someone else... I turn. no one is there.
I turn back to him, and he is still staring at me. His eyes are hidden behind the long bangs he has. I blush and look away.
He walks over and sits closer, staring at me. I blush redder and avoid eye contact.


Then Cassie, the new girl sits across from me. "Hi..." I say. "Hello." She looks past me and blushes. "Hey cass..." I hear ELi's voice. "hey, Eli." She says. I smile. "Hey." I mutter. He sits next to her. "Want to go to the carniville?" He asks. I go to answer when I realize, hes not talking to me. I smile as she nods. Wow. why am I so jealous. I turn and look at the boy who has been staring at me.


(Eli)

Nothing. I try texting her again.

ANSWER ME!


nothing. I close my eyes...what did I do wrong? When I hear a familiar laugh. I turn and look across the pathway to see Juno trying to et a stuffed animal. She laughs when she misses. Then a boy...I've seen him in the office. He taps her on the shoulder. She immediatly blushes. I read her lips.

Her- "Hi"

Him- "Hi." He holds her phone up.
she pats her pokets. She hits her head and laughs.
Her- "sorry! thanks."
He hands the phone to her, but holds it a second while he stares into her eyes.

"I think I'm going to be sick...." I hear Cassie. I silently agree that I might too.
I hurry her to a garbage and hold her hair. "It'll be alright." I murmur. I remember his name. Johnny. Johnny smiles at her and walks away. I look at Cassie and mumur in her ear.


(Juno)
I'm still blushing. He is so....nice. which is not what I expected. I turn and see Eli, holding Cassie's hair, murmuring in her ear. Puking, she is. She probably looks better than me when I puke. I sigh and turn back. I try to hit the stupid target.


I look at my phone.


3 NEW MESSAGES-3 NEW FRM ELI


HI.


HELLO?


ANSWER ME!


I shake my head and put it in my pocket.


I lay on my bed. I close my eyes, finding myself in a warm beach.


I sit on a rock. "Hey! I dreamt of somewhere warm!" I hear Eli. I half-heartly smile. He sits on the rock with me. "You look pretty with...a bikini." He says. I blush. "Er. Thanks. You looks ugly in jeans." I mutter. Damn. I'm turing mean. He just laughs, though. Brushing it off. I like the way my hair feels on my skin. I stand up. "I'm going to my seperate way." I say. "What?" He asks, sitting up. I just take off running. "Wh-wait! Juno!" He yells, stumbling to catch up with me. I get safely into the woods.


I lunge myself into a tree and turn, looking behind me. I see him enter the little forest. He looks around. He spots me. I stay there. He walks slowly up to me. The tree stands in between us. He then walks around, grabing my hand and turning me around, making my back press agains't the tree. "Why do you run?" He asks. I look down. "I don't know-I guess I wasn't in the mood-"
I start. "Look at me, Look at me dammit!" He yells. I look up at him. "Were friends right?" I nod. "Then give mee a reason to leave you alone." He says. Then he starts to talk all nervous. "I mean, I understand if we weren't friends, then you wouldn't have to give me a reason to leave you alone, but were are so...I need one. I deserve one." He finishes.

I try to look away, but he grabs my other wrist and pins my gently against the tree. "I need one, June." He says, really serious. The sunset lights the trees up. I see our shadows out of the corner of my eyes. It looks like a romantic book cover. The wind blows. "I don't have one." I say honestly. He smiles. "your actually being honest." We still don't move. He then gets closer. I kiss him. His hands move from my wrists to my hands. our hands intertwine. He presses his body into mine.

The sun is warm. His bare chest is warm. How did that even happen? He wraps my arms around his neck, then he wraps his around my waist.


(Eli)

This feels good. I wish it didn't. My hands around her waist, my lips on hers, I realize, Its her. The same pretty smooth soft skin. She was the girl. Not Cassie. No. Her. I don't really want that to be the case. I really don't, but my heart says otherwise. This moment is kind of perfect.

This moment....


(Juno)

It's him! He is the boy with the soft but rough skin. With beautiful lips. It's him. I thought it was. I don't think I like this, but my heart won the fight. This is the moment....the moment...


(Juno + Eli)


The moment I fell inlove.


(Juno)

I'm inlove! I'm inlove! holy crap! Holy crap!


(Eli)

I love her. I love her. I love the way she is so mean. I love the way she cares. I love her.


I open my eyes and gasp, feeling her lips. Her touch. Oh no. Oh crap. I love her. I fricken love her. I completely love the girl next door.


(Juno)

I walk away from my locker and smile at Eli. He doesn't smile back. "Eli-" He walks past me, ignoring me. I try texting him when I get hte time.
ELI?

HELLO!

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?

ANSWER ME, IDIOT!


WHAT HAPPENED TO BFFF?


I finally get an answer. Not the one I wanted though.


IT TURNED TO BFFB FRIENDS WITH BENIFITS.


YOUR POINT PLEASE.


I CAN'T DO THAT AGAIN. JUST BECUASE CASSIE CAN'T SHARE DREAMS WITH ME, DOESN'T MEAN I GET TO GO BEHIND HER BACK.


REJECTED AGAIN. I KNEW IT. DON'T TALK TO ME.


FINE WITH ME.


Tears trail down my cheeks. What. The. Hell?
I cry myself to sleep.


(Eli)

I hear weeping. I walk down the long dark hallway. I walk to each door and open it. When I get to the end, I fall down into a black hole. Then I am watching Myself. in a dream. The first time I saw her. The second. The last... Wen I manange to climb out, I see her down the hallway. "I'm sorry." I say. "What now?" SHe asks. "I'm going to go find cassie. see if she can have dreams too. We could share alot." I say, pushing her away. she nods. "I can't be friends with you, Eli." sHe says. I nod. "I told Johnny I couldn't be with him, and he asked why." She says.

"What did you say?" I ask, curious.

"I told him, I fell inlove without him, already."

She says. She looks up at me. "I'll always f*cking remember when you took my heart." She pokes my chest. "I'll always remember that I LET you." She says, shaking her head.

"I'll always remember that I fell inlove with the boy next door." She says. She then gulps, forcing tears to go away. She lets out a shaky breath.

"But I'll never remember why." "I'll remember when I let you chase another girl, I'll always remember watching you go, pushing you away, but I wont remember why I let you go.. I will never remember why I fell inlove with you." She finishes and turns. "Goodbye, Eli." She says over her shoulder and walks away.


(Juno)
I turn to watch him walk away. Tears flow down my cheeks. I'll remember the tears I shed for you. all of them. I sit down and wipe my tears. over a boy. I let win. I'm so stupid. But I'm too weak and sad to be angry. I wave to his back.


I wake up with tears running down my cheeks. With my situation, I can't say, It's just a dream. Which would really really come in handy. I open my email to see a new message.

FRM. JOHNNY.

THE FIRST TIME I TELL A GIRL I LIKE HER AND SHE GIVES ME A SAD SMILE. SHE THEN TELLS ME SHE CAN'T. I ASK WHY. SHE SAYS, "I FELL INLOVE WITHOUT YOU, ALREADY." I FELT MY HEART SHATTER. I'M NOT A POET. I'M NOT A GOOD PERSON. BUT I THINK THAT WAS UNFAIR. BRANDY, GIVE ME A CHANCE. I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT THE BOY YOU
