*Thayer's POV*

I woke up Monday morning with a raging headache. I haven't talked to Micah all weekend. I was pissed at him for what he did at the party. I can't stay mad at him for long though. I'm over it. I think Micah got the point that I was mad. He suffered enough not talking to me.

I get dressed in a hurry. I asked my mom for some Advil as I came down the stairs.

"Sorry about your headache sweetie." She replied, handing me two Advil. I smiled in return.

"I will be ready in ten to give you a ride." My dad said as he walked in to the kitchen. My car! Micah asked me to take it when I got a chance...

"Can I possibly take my car to school today?" I ask, almost pleading. My dad looks over at me raising his eyebrows. My mom huffs and turns to look at me too.

"What if it gets ruined?" My mom asks. My dad let out a little laugh.

"He takes it everywhere else. Don't you think school is the same?" He says to my mom. He stares at her until she gives in. My dad always does that. He has this look and can get people to do almost anything if he wants.

"Call if your going anywhere after school then." My mom said and she walked back to the living room. It was that easy?

"One scratch and it stays here." I heard my dad yell to me. I was already out in the garage starting my car. I pull out my phone and start to text Micah 'on my way' when I see that it's already ten after eight. First hour starts in 20 minutes. I guess I will just be super early today.

*Micah's POV*

I was just leaving out the door to catch the bus as I get a text from Thayer. Finally he wants to talk. 'on my way' it read. He was going to pick me up? I see Thayer pulling up into my driveway as I grab my backpack. I head outside to the car. I slide into the passenger seat.

"Morning." Thayer greats me with a smile. Is he going to pretend nothing happened? I have to apologize though. I must have had a confused out of sorts face because he shook his head at me.

"I don't really care about what happened anymore. If you look at it, you practically saved me from spending a night with a gross whore that I would have had to pay later on." Micah reassured me. True, but what he doesn't know is that it was a bet.

"Right ok good morning!" I changed my worried look and dropped the subject. Better to move on.

Thayer parked his car and we got out. I felt strange. It felt like people were starring at me. I checked my surrounding and the people around in the parking lot. They were starring! I don't look any different. Why we're they starring? I walked over closer to Thayer so I could talk to him.

"Is it just me or are a lot of people starring at me?" I whispered to him.

"Or us..." Thayer replied. I was hoping he would say no. We continued into the building only to be bombarded with giggling girls. What's going on?

"How long?"

"Have you held hands?"

"Do you love each other?"

"How did you find out?"

"Have you kissed?"

To many screaming girls at once asking strange questions. Kissed who? Held who's hand? Love who? Before I could ask who they were talking about the warning bell rang. Thayer and I made it to out locker, but with the eyes of many girls on our backs. Nick came up to talk to us.

"When were you going to tell your other friends?" He asked. Josh and Gabby followed behind him.

"What are you talking about?" I asked Nick.

"Did you see all those girls cram in front of us? It was awesome... but what were they doing that for?" Thayer yelled from the bottom of the locker.

"What do you mean you don't know?" Josh laughed. Would they just tell us what's going on? Thayer stood up and dropped his geometry notebook. He moaned so I bent down to pick it up for him.

"Josh stop for a second this is serious." Gabby nudged him. He stopped laughing and looked straight into my eyes.

"Are you gay with Thayer?" Josh asked me.

"What no why would-"

"Why are you wearing Thayer's sweatshirt then?" Nick cut me off, grabbing at my sweatshirt-Thayer's sweatshirt-and looking me directly in the eyes. My face grew hot. Why was I still wearing his sweatshirt?

"And sharing a locker..." Gaby added.

"Not helping Gabby!" I snapped. I looked at Thayer, his face was red too. I cleared my throat.

"Me and Thayer are not gay." I stated. It was the truth and they knew that. Why were they questioning us? The second bell rang.

"We will talk to you at lunch." Nick sighed and let go of my sweatshirt. Nick, Josh and Gabby all hurried to first hour. I grabbed Thayer's wrist and yanked him to class. Every one who was in the classroom at the moment looked up at me and Thayer.

"It's true!" someone yelled from the back of the class. Piper. I looked at what she was pointing at, me and Thayer. Shit. I was holding Thayer's wrist still. That's why poeple were starring; mostly girls. They thought we were gay for each other. I threw his hand as far away from mine as I could. Obviously Piper was at the root of this problem and she was going to tell me-if she liked it or not.
