I show her the photos of Dane and me. But I accidentally scroll too much and now it's a pic of Tyson and Oliver, from when they stole my phone and took tons of pictures. I deleted most of them, but this one is just too funny.

She gasps and points to Tyson. Ugh, another admirer.

"That's Tyson! Oh my God, are you friends with Tyson? Oh! Are you the Willow he's been telling me is crazy?"

I narrow my eyes. "Maybe.."

I'll talk about this to him tomorrow. I am enthusiastic, not crazy.

"But how do you know him?"

"I'm Tyson's girlfriend. Have been for the past three months."

My jaw drops. Did he trick her into that with sweet talk?

Poor girl believes she's together with Tyson. He probably hasn't called back, so now you have this shit.

"I see you don't believe me. I'll call him, okay? Oh, but don't interrupt. That way you can tease him later," she giggles.

Hm. I like her.

She presses a button. Calling Sweetie<345...

He picks up almost immediately. I recognize his voice, but there's this soft tone I've never heard out of his mouth.

"Hey sweetie," he says. He sounds so... sweet?

"Hey babe. What are you doing?" Lily asks. He shrugs and rolls his eyes. "I was trying to find a good way out of something. One of my friends, Willow I've talked about her, wants to set me up on a date. But I don't want to, I have you."

Ahw.

Tissie is a softie?

They talk a lot more and then he says, "I have to go sweetie, love you!"

I see Lily melt. "Bye, love you too!" They hang up and she looks at me, a dreamy expression on her face.

I am shocked.

"Oh, I'm gonna tease him a lot with this tomorrow. He can't hide this from us!"

*****

"Hey Tissie! Guess who I met yesterday?"

We're all hanging in my room. In an hour, it'll stop raining, and then we're gonna play rugby.

He sighs, rolls his eyes and turns to me. "I don't know, Will, Dylan O'Brien?"

"Nope." Hah, I wish.

He shrugs. "Well, I don't know. Tell me," he sighs. I start giggling.

He cocks an eyebrow and looks at the boys. "What the hell? Why is she even more giggly now?"

I stop giggling and punch his upper arm. "Hey! First you tell people I'm crazy, and now I'm giggly?"

His eyes widen for a second, but he recovers himself quickly and grins. "Yes, you are. So, who did you meet yesterday?"

I shrug and giggle. Dane kisses my neck, maybe he's trying to help Tyson. Not working. "Well, so I went to that job meeting yesterday. And I met a girl."

Tyson narrows his eyes at me. "No. I'm not going on a date." He turn to the boys. "Please help me out of this," he begs. They shake their head and snicker when Tyson sighs. 

"Her name was Lily."

Tyson freezes. His jaw is set hard, and his eyes are closed. The boys notice the change and lean forward, not wanting to miss a single thing. They don't even know who Lily is.

"I don't know a Lily," Tyson tries, but I can tell he's lying. "No? Weird, because I was sitting next to her when you guys called!"

Tyson slumps in his seat and looks at the floor. Oliver -and the rest, too- seems confused. "Who were you calling with? And why is this so special? Help me out?"

I look at Tyson. He sighs, and I see his hands are tensed into fists. "Fine. Willow, fine, you win. Lily is my girlfriend, she has been for the past three months and I'm insanely in love with her. Okay, yes? Now let's move on to the next subject, please."

Everyone stares at Tyson in shock. I don't, I knew this. "Why didn't you tell us?" I ask in a soft voice. He sighs and looks at the floor again, completely slumping.

"I- You guys are just- I don't know. I was scared you were gonna laugh at me. But then you two got together," he points at me and Dane," and Noah and Jack, and then I figured maybe not. But then I was already two months together with Lily, and it was too late," he sighs.

I smile reassuring at him. He looks up, and seems to relax a little when he sees it. But when he looks at the rest of the boys, he sighs again. I jump up to loosen the tensed mood. "Guys, Tissie is a softie!" I giggle.

They start laughing, and Tyson chuckles a bit. He's still watching everyone carefully though. "And apparently, you're not heartless," I smile and he shrugs. Nick sighs and wraps an arm around Oliver's shoulders.

Oliver's eyes widen. "Oh man, now we're the only two single," Nick sighs. Oliver relaxes. "Oh God, Nicky, never scare me like that again. I thought you were hitting on me," Oliver says and we all laugh.

I wink at Tyson, and he frowns. "What? Is there something else I should know? Did she say something about me?" He starts panicking and stands up. He walks through the room, doubting. I stop him.

"No, no. But I do know something you'll like," I smile. His eyes lit up. "What? Is it about Lily?"  I nod and he smiles. Ahw.

He looks at me, expectantly. But I shut up. He frowns. "Tell me, Willow. What is it?" I shake my head and his eyes narrow. "Willow."

"Nope."

He sighs. "Willow, is it about me?" He sounds so insecure I almost tell him. But Lily made pme promise not to.

"You'll see tomorrow," I promise him and he sighs again.

I can't tell him Lily is transferring to our school for him, can I?

****

"Willow, please tell me," Tyson begs.

I sigh, getting pretty tired of his begging. "No, Tyson. Now sit down and wait," I order and he does. I smile and start eating.

Dane rests his head in the nook of my neck. "Oh, I'm loving this," he chuckles. I giggle. Me too. For once, I have the control over Tyson. Doesn't happen a lot.

I see Lily walking into the cafetaria, seeming a little unsure. It's her first day, and she's in my class. Which means in Tyson's too...

I wave at her and she giggles, walking towards me. Tyson frowns and turns around in his chair. When his eyes land on Lily, he stands up, then freezes.

"She's here?"

I nod. The boys look at the blonde girl running to our table. Well, to Tyson. "That's her?" Oliver asks, and I nod again. Lily jumps on him and wraps her legs around his waist. I've never seen Tyson smile wider.

He kisses her softly, like couples do. Dane gasps. "Oh my God! That's that girl you showed to me! But you said it was just a fix!" he yells and points. Tyson chuckles. "You're too naive, Dane," he shrugs.

Tyson sits down, and Lily stays on his lap. He keeps hugging her. I notice everyone int he cafetaria staring at them, but Tyson doesn't seem to care. He really looks happy with her.

"Guys, this is Lily," he smiles. "Lily, these are Nicky, Oliver, Dane, Noah, Jack and Willow, who you apparently know."

Nick groans. "My name is Nick," he growls. Tyson shrugs. Lily smiles at him. "He's a little an ass, isn't he?"

Nick sighs and nods. Tyson raises an eyebrow at her. "Excuse me? How dare you accuse me from that?" he gasps. She giggles and shuts him up with a kiss. He smiles and nestles his head in her neck.

Dane grunts and I look at him. "Done looking at those two and ready to give me attention?" he whines and I giggle. I give him a kiss and cuddle him.

He seems happy with it. I see Noah and Jack kissing too, and when I look at Nick and Oliver, they seem bored. "Ow-kay, can we skip this?" Nicks sighs.

He'll understand it, one day.
