Baby, I'm a Million.

Hide Your Heart.

The whole second and third period, Avery just kept trying to talk to me. Honestly, I wasn't in the mood. I just kept thinking about the incident with Caleb. I didn't want Avery to know I had a crush on Andy. She'd probably hate me.

It doesn't matter...she probably knows by the way Caleb yelled at me.

At lunch, Avery tried to come sit with us, but Alli and Sloane gave her cold stares.

"Guys, I don't hate her. I just don't want her to know who I have a crush on,"

"Okay, fine. But still, we can beat her up for you if you want!" Alli joked while Sloane looked at her shocked.

Shaking my head at Alli's proposal, I scanned the cafeteria. Bender was sitting with Avery. I couldn't believe it. Bender had it bad for Avery. He totally liked her. I could tell. It was so fucking obvious. He doesn't usually talk to girls for more than a minute.

Finally, the bell rang to signal it was time to get back to class. I had Chemistry next, and my teacher was a senile asshole who had nothing better to do but torment his students. I decided I didn't want to go for the rest of my classes.

Finding Cameron in the crowd of students was easy. He's so tall and always wears his Gordie Howe jersey. I grabbed his hand, pulled him towards the cafeteria doors, and we rushed out.

"What was that all about?" Cameron asked once we were out of the school's sight.

"Well, I didn't want to go to Chemistry. So, we're going to the mall."

Getting into Cameron's car, I felt myself get butterflies. This was almost like a date, and I didn't even realize I had asked him. And he didn't bother to say no.

"Hey, Nancy, I know you like that guy...uhm...Andy? So, if you wanna go out with him, you can."

I look at him shocked. How could he know? I didn't tell anyone but Ferris(huge mistake on my part) and Sloane. So, how could Cameron know? It didn't make sense.

"Ferris told me. When I asked him...nevermind. Let's just leave."

So, as we drove on to the mall, I looked out the window and turned on the radio. I knew there would be no conversations going on...
