Andy

Claire was sitting alone at our table when I arrived at school, her head down as she read the novel we'd been assigned for English. A few tables away from ours, I spot Jupiter, sitting with Seb and the rest of the year 12 soccer players, and I can't help but notice how often Jupiter's head turns around to spy on Claire before quickly twisting back so as to not be caught by Sebastian.

I felt bad for Jupiter when she was drugged, I still do, but her behaviour towards Claire is nothing short of cruel and bordering on pathetic. She obviously wants to come talk to Claire, but is allowing Sebastian to get inside her head and convince her that Claire is now the enemy.

"Morning, cupcake." I greet my girlfriend, pressing my lips against hers for a sweet but chaste kiss. "You realise you're being watched by Jupiter, right?"

"I know." Claire giggles and rolls her eyes. "I'm pretending to take no notice, though, if Jupiter wants to play the submissive role and allow her boyfriend to dictate

    ClaireI tidy my hair, pulling the loose strands back into my ponytail as Andy throws his pants back on and grabs some paper towels and kitchen spray to clean over the chair we just fucked on, wiping away any evidence. He throws the paper towel in the small garbage bin in the kitchen just as the front door opens and Gabby walks in, still wearing the same dress she had on last night but carrying her heels."Oh my goodness, what smells so amazing in here?" She asks in a sing-song, I'm so fucking happy, voice. Yep, she broke her own rules, I can tell. There's only one thing that makes Gabby this cheery."Sex," Andy answers her with a straight face, and I nudge him in the ribs, giving him a look of murder. "Just kidding, it's banana muffins, Claire baked them."The timer on my phone goes off, and Andy opens the oven door and, with a mitted hand, pulls the muffin pan from the oven and places it on the wooden chopping board. The sweet aroma fills the kitchen and wafts out into the downstair

    ClaireWhen Andy suggested a study date at his house, promising that we'd have peace and quiet because his parents would be down in Sydney for the day, visiting his oldest sister, I thought it was a great idea. Andy insisted that we study in his bedroom, stating that he didn't want to have to cart all his books downstairs, but there was no room on his desk, so we had to set up our study session on his bed.I lay on my stomach at the opposite end of his bed and propped my books up on the wooden bed frame so that I was able to read them easily. I started with maths, following the practice paper we'd been given, while Andy lay beside me, working through his PEHPD practice paper. I was breezing through the questions, which made me realise I was wasting my time studying for a subject that I knew I was going to ace, so I decided to move along to English, focusing on the practice essay writing, which I knew would be where I'd struggle the most.I'd read the practice essay question three time

    GabbyInside the restaurant, we are shown to our booth and handed some menus, not that I bother looking over mine, I'll be having my usual. The waitress returns to our table with a bottle of Chardonnay and two glasses. She opens the bottle and pours us each a glass before leaving with our order..The conversation flows seamlessly between us, as if we've known each other forever. Nate tells me about how his parents are divorced, his mum lives in Sydney, and he lives with his dad in a two-bedroom house not far from my own. I feel so comfortable with him, and I don't want the date to end, so when the waitress returns to collect our empty plates, I suggest we order dessert, just to keep the date going longer.While Nate browses the menu, I look around the crowded restaurant and almost spit my wine out when I see two very familiar faces walk in the door."Don't look, but Jupiter and Sebastian just walked in," I warn Nate, who looks up from the menu but doesn't turn around. I watch as the h

    GabbyStepping out of Claire's walk-in wardrobe in my brand new, black, strapless cocktail dress, I did a twirl just to show it off. I felt like a princess, all the guilt I had from paying way too much for a new dress, shoes and make-up vanished when I saw the look on my best friend's face."Gabby, you look amazing," Claire exclaimed as she fixed the strands of my hair that had tangled from my twirl. "You're going to blow him away.""Nothing gets blown on the first date, Claire. I have a strict three-date policy before sleeping with a man." I giggle, knowing exactly what she meant, but my dirty mind can never resist making something sexual."How do you last the first two dates without jumping into bed with them?" She asks me, and I can tell that she's not being judgmental at all; she knows how much I enjoy having sex."Well, I have a set of dating rules that I stick to, like never going home with a man on the first two dates, and I don't bring condoms with me either, that way it remov

    ClaireI was caught between a rock and a hard place. Andy had made his feelings about Gabby's crush on Nate quite clear. He was strongly against any friend of his dating his sister, not that he and Nate were that close, but as the only friend he's actually made, since transferring to Brixton, he wanted to protect that budding friendship.Then there was Gabby, who had been pestering me all week with endless questions about Nate, and I probably would have been able to answer them if I knew him better, but the reality was, he was a complete mystery to me. We'd attended the same school for years now, even shared some of the same classes, but he was quiet, kept to himself and didn't share much. The little I knew only served to drive Gabby's interest in this boy further, and when she begged me to help her, I found it hard to say no.I was directly going against Andy's wishes by inviting Gabby to watch the match; this could lead to a fight between us if he ever found out my involvement in th

    AndyI thought the drive to the airport with Ed would be filled with long, awkward silences and both of us trying to fill those gaps with meaningless conversation, but instead, once Ed started talking, the conversation just flowed effortlessly. There was only one subject that I was hesitant to approach: Pia."Claire was telling me that a detective came to your school and interviewed her and a few others," Ed states As we speed along the freeway, not another car in sight. "It's good that they're following up on what Pia put in her diary.""Yeah, but I doubt he got any info out of the culprit, whoever he is." I shake my head, feeling so frustrated by the entire process. "If I were the detective, I'd be looking into who purchased the Helix tickets, which will lead you straight to the culprit.""I agree, those tickets were most likely bought on a credit card, surely that would be easy for the police to trace," Ed says. "That would clear Adrian's name, too.""There's no way Adrian would be
