Raina's POV

Nick Thornton. That's the name of the coolest guy at school. He's the classic bad boy that every girl seems to fall in love with but there's one small problem. He's taken. Well, kind of. As of now, he's back together with his on and off girlfriend, Lauren Hills. Also known as the most popular girl in school and the girl every guy falls in love with. It may seem like I'm also one of the girls obsessed with Nick but I've actually had my eyes set on another guy.

Arlo Rush. That's the guy I like. He's not a really popular kid but he's pretty well known around school. He's pretty smart and we're in two classes together. I love those two hours. They're the two hours I look forward to every day. I don't know why I feel this way but it feels like love. I've liked him since eight grade and I've told him that I like him but I'm still not exactly sure how he feels about me.

When I texted him and asked him if he likes me he said, "Yes and no. Maybe. It's complicated". Like what does that even mean. I decided to just tell him that I was going to take his answer as a no and that I was sorry if I made things awkward between us and he replied, "Ok, and it's fine". I can't seem to get him out of my head.

How does he really feel?
