Damon was staring into the wall angrily. He was very jealous.

He wasn't supposed to be in school, it was summer time. He snuck off anyway.

Which is going to be a pain in the ass if someone ever found out, since he has a reputation of being responsible.

His mind then wander off to Jasmine.

How dare she take for granted everything he had done

Before this train of thought continue, he suddenly heard someone call him.

He panicked and started to think up of an answer as to why he is here.

"Don't worry, I'm also just sneaking here"

He then recognized the voice, it was Silvana!

"Ummmm, ok? "

This was awkward, he never really had a friendship with Silvana. Most of the time, she was a wallflower.

Except that one time her boyfriend, Zach, broke up with her. She became the talk of the school

"You ok? "

Silvana asked him while looking concerned.

"Yeah"

Damon smiled sadly.

"Nevermind, forget about me. How are you? You ok with the break? "

"Yeah, I think"

Awkward silence was felt again.

"You're angry at Jasmine"

"What? No I'm not"

Damon was surprised but fortunately, was able to gather himself quickly.

"Don't lie, I can feel it before I call you"

Damon contemplated whether to tell the truth or make a makeshift lie. He doesn't want his secret to be let out and the best way is to never tell it to anyone.

But while not close to her, he knows that Silvana is someone who will keep a secret to her grave.

"Yeah, I am"

"Why? "

"Because she keeps taking me for granted. I do something for her and she just don't care. She ignores me and always talk shit about me behind my back"

Silvana looked at him and patted his back.

"Yet I can't seem to not like her,can't bring myself to hate her"

"Hey that's alright, I know that feeling"

And boy, does Silvana knows what he's feeling.

"I know"

Silence. Again.

"I need your help with something"

"What? "

Is that why she went searching for him, even trying to search in school?

"I have a plan, and this plans concerns you "

"What plan? "

"Well, we will show those who has taken us for granted that even without them, we exist. That we don't need them"

"And how, exactly? "

"Let's pretend"
