The way things come together by Amber (polar express read aloud .TXT) 📖

I'm getting back together with Nick and you will not tell him I'm dating Tyler because if you do I will tell the whole school. This is your alone warning.

I wrote,"Whatever......" I threw the note at Jennifer and she opened it. She looked at me and smiled. What she smiling about? If she thinks that since she knows my secrets she can control my life shes wrong. The bell rang after two periods passed. It was lunch time. I walked out of the class room and met up with Victoria. "I've been meaning to ask. Who's this cousin of yours?" I asked her. "Oh. Her names Jaycee call her Jay or JD. She's at her locker. Do you want to meet her?" She asked me. "Sure." I said. We walked over to a girl putting away her books. "Hey Jay." Victoria said. She got up. She had Dark brown hair with light brown highlights and greenish grey eyes. She wore black glasses and she was pretty. "Jay this is Avery My best friend. Avery this is Jay." She greeted us to each other. "Hi. It's so nice to meet you." Jay said. "Yeah." I said. We walked to lunch and sat down at the same table we always sat down at. "So Avery....Who's the boys over there staring at you?" Jay asked me. I turned to see Alex and his crew. They were pointing and waving at me. I rolled my eyes and turned to Jay. "That would be Alex's crew and also my friends. I guess I can say that." I shrugged and Kendall sat beside me. He put his arm around my waist and I slammed my pizza on my tray.

&&Jay's pov&& (NEW POV!!!!!)
A boy sat down next to Avery and put his arm around her waist. Who was this guy? Why was Avery mad? Avery slammed her pizza on her tray. I saw Alex and his crew turn to her. They mouthed 'Kendall?' and then 'oh crap.' Avery grabbed his arm and twisted it. He got up and his face told it all. He was pissed. Avery got in his face. "I told you to stay the hell away form me." She snapped at him. "And I said No one tells Kendall off." He snapped back. Avery was about to punch him. A scary but hot looking boy with black hair grabbed her arm. He shake his head no. "Eli. Let me go." Avery demanded. "No Avery. his not worth it." Eli said. Was this Eli dude her boyfriend or something. I couldn't stop staring at him. Man he was cute. I almost drool until he shot a glare at me. I snapped out of it and looked away. He smiled as he walked back over to his table. I blushed and Victoria laughed at me. I punched her in the shoulder and laughed with her.

&&Avery's pov&&
As Kendall stomped off I sat back down. "Sorry about that Jay. That was Kendall A boy you don't want to be around." I said. "It's okay." She smiled. "So...Jay....You like him." Victoria said. "Who?" Jay asked clueless. "Eli." Victoria said. "Psh, No......" She lied. "Your lying." Victoria said. "Psh, No I'm not." she lied again. "You say Psh every time you lie Jay." Victoria said. "OK. I do." Jay said. "I could talk to him for you." i said. "You will." "Yeah. I heard proms coming up to so maybe if you guys get together you can go with each other." I said. "Sounds good." She smiled as she feel in a deep gaze over Eli. The bell rang and it was time for P.E. Victoria, Jaycee, Me, Alex, Eli, Chris, Vanessa, and Zane were in this class together. I bumped into someone like I always do. "Sorry." I said as I looked up to see Chris. "Why do I always bump into you?" I asked him. "I dunno. Maybe Destiny." He joked. "Hmmm....Maybe." I joked along. Chris's girlfriend stared at us and walked up to me. Oh yeah Sarah is Chris's girlfriend. "Hi Avery." She said. ""Hi." I said. "So what you guys laughing about?" She asked jealous. "Nothing." Chris and I said at the same time. Victoria called my name. "Well I'm being called." I said as I walked over to Victoria. "What?" I asked. "Coach said we're playing dodge ball." I nod. YES! time to make Vanessa and Alex cry. If Alex has any emotions. I shrugged and the coach walked out of his office to the middle of the gym. "OK. Two captains. Hmmm... Let's see. Ms. Salvatore and Ms Hughes." She pointed to me and Vanessa. We walked over the coach. I was on his right side and Vanessa on the left. Vanessa picked Alex, Eli, and Jaycee. I picked Victoria, Zane, And Chris. "OK. Four on four today." He yelled. He walked back to his office. I sighed as Vanessa hit the ball and hit flied at me. Chris pushed me out of the way and he got out. "Chris! What the heck?" I yelled. "Hey. I gotta protect the pretty girls." He said. I blushed and Picked up and ball. I hit the ball hard and it got Eli out. Vanessa hit a ball really hard and it was heading for Victoria. Zane pushed her and they fell to the floor. Zane's arms were wrapped around her and they were blushing. They got back up and I hit the ball at Alex. He dodge it and threw one back at me. He missed and I stuck my tongue out at him. He rolled his eyes and Zane got him out. I laughed at him while he sat down. Vanessa threw a ball at me but it end up hitting Victoria. Zane got Jaycee out and Vanessa got Zane out. Just you and me Vanessa. I picked up a ball and she did the same. She pointed to Alex and made a weird face. I finally understood. Wow she's such a idiot. I pointed to Alex to and made a face that looked like I was making out. She dropped her mouth and I threw the ball at her. When it hit her she stomped off. I tried not to laugh. I caught Alex's eye. He was staring at me like I did something wrong. He walked over to me. "Did you point to me making a make out face?" He asked me. "Hey, A girl has to win some how." I said with a smirk. "Yeah by making my girlfriend think I was cheating on her." He said. "Hmmm... I never really liked her so I really don't care." I said. "Aw...Looks like someone is jealous." He said. "Nah..." I said. I flicked him on the head as I walked off over to Chris. Vanessa walked over to Alex and hugged him like I hurt her. "Thanks." I said to Chris. "Your welcome. Wait why am I welcoming you?" "You pushed me out of the way when the Vanessa threw it at me." "Oh no prob." My heart started racing. WHAT THE HECK?! Am I falling for CHRIS?! Hmmm....Well he is cute and he is my type. WHAT AM I SAYING?! I sighed. "What's wrong?" Chris asked me. "Oh nothing." I said. "OK. Well Sarah's waiting for me." I nod as he walks off holding hands with Sarah. WHY CHRIS?! I dunno.... Get over yourself Avery. Your life is playing with you. First you almost kissed Alex and then CHRIS! Why?! Alex broke my thoughts and I jumped. "What?" I asked. "Oh. I'll see you at home with the other guys." He said. "Oh ok." I said.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was the last period and the bell rang. WOHO! HOME HERE I COME! I just wanted to argue with one of the guys or just be mean to them. I ran into Kendall and jumped five feet back. "AH!" I yelled. My heart raced for a little bit and then I said,"Sorry. Kendall you scared me out of my thoughts." "Yeah whatever...." He groaned. "What's your problem? Your usual trying to grab me or something." I said. "That's the thing Avery. I don't mean to do it. It's just what.....What that bitch wants me to." He said. "Who?" I asked/demanded. "Vanessa." He muttered. "Why would she-" I stopped and grinned. "Oh...." I said. "Thanks Kendall. By the way who do you like?" I asked. "Um... No one." He lied. "Uh-huh sure. Tell me. Please....." I pouted. "Fine. I like Sarah but you know she's dating Chris." "Yeah I know that. Well good luck." I said as I ran outside and road my skateboard home.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got home to Vanessa and Alex making out like always, Nick talking to Chris, Zachary sleeping on the chair, Victoria trying not to drool over Zane, Kayla obsessing over Samuel, Jaycee trying not to stare at Eli, and that girl from the other day. I put my skateboard down and walked over to her. Oh yeah Victoria stays with us since her mother keep getting drunk and her father quit his job and so doesn't her cousin now. I have my buddies all around now. "Hey. Never met you before. I'm Avery. You are?" I said. "Shayla Parker." She said. "Your Nick and Alex's sister?" I asked. "Yep but half sister not full." She smiled. "Oh." I said. I walked over to Victoria. "Hey V." I said as I sat down on the couch. "Hey." She said. Alex sat beside me and Vanessa sat on his lap. So awkward...... I looked at them and Vanessa saw me. She started making out with Alex again. I turned to Victoria. She nodded and grabbed Jaycee's wrist. "Let's have a party tonight." I heard Nick say. "Yeah sounds good." Alex said. "But first we have to go shopping." Nick said. Alex nodded. "Chris, Alex, Victoria, Avery, and Zane get the decorations. Vanessa, Eli, Jaycee, Samuel, and Kayla get food. Me and Zachary will get the drinks." Nick said.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We all came home with food,drinks, and decorations. We finished decorating and putting the food out. I sat down beside Victoria on the couch. The door bell rang and Alex opened the door. Vanessa lunge herself at Alex as Jennifer did with Nick. I saw the impression on Nick's face. He was mad and surprised at the same time. I rolled my eyes and took a sip of Victoria's water. I got up and the bell rang again. I opened the door. Kendall, his crew, some hippy, a couple strangers, then cheerleaders, the football team, my soccer team, and Tyler. Wait a minute. TYLER! I stopped him. "What are you doing?" I asked him. "Joining the party." He said. "No your not." I snapped. "It's a free country Avery." He said. "It's a state not a country." I said and held in the last word I was going to say. He smirked and walked in. I shrugged and closed the door. hehe.....I should be evil. I grabbed a empty wine glass and poured water into it. I walked around for awhile with the wine glass. I pretended to wobble. Kendall walked over to me. "Hey. Avery DO you want to go upstairs?" He asked. I stopped wobbling and looked at him with a angry face. "No Get the point. I never want to be with you KENDALL." I snapped and said yelled Kendall. "Wait your drunk so you don't know what your saying." He chuckled. "No your wrong." I said. I grabbed his cup and poured it on his head. "See. Do you get the picture now?" I asked. He groaned and stomped off. I laughed and bump into Chris. "Oh sorry-" I said as I looked up. "See. We always bump into each other." I said. "Yeah. Have you seen Sarah?" He asked. "Actually no." I said. "Anyway. why are you out here and not in there dancing?"
