Austin, Valerie, Owen, and I were there. I approached Austin, handed him the paper, and said, "Write your name and your partner's name." He raised his head and answered, "I don't have one." It's no surprise he doesn't have a partner. With this mentality, who would want to be paired with him? When I see other people who are alone, I know they are the worst freeloaders I've ever seen.

"Good luck with your new partner," I said breaking the silence between us. He rolled my eyes at me. "At least I'll be paired with someone better," he hissed while emphasizing the word better as if it's gonna affect me. Does it? I think for a second—who's a better partner than me in this camp?

The boss chimed in, "We did think a lot about the strengths of everybody and what would make good pairings so that we're most successful. You won't be able to select your partners because it has been previously done by the company. We feel that these pairings will help bring out the best in every one of you." At his words, my excitement dimmed a bit. I turned to Hannah, who smiled reassuringly at me. "Don't worry. I'm sure we'll get paired up together. We make a great team."Hannah said. Collen had been sitting to the side, quietly, until now, when he leaned over and softly said, "Allison, you know we're in different departments, right? It's unlikely you'll be paired with Hannah."

Our nine-year friendship has been smooth-sailing since we met on our first year of college. There is a secret though that I've been keeping. I don't know when it happened and how, but I just feel it—I like my bestfriend a lot, much more than a bro normally would. Ever since our Bio days, he has been helping me with my academic and extracurricular work. I am a good student but he pushes me to become better. It's not like we're competing with each other. No, not like that. Instead, he motivates me to do the best that I can, because he also does the same. This is why when we're together, we're unstoppable. Our tandem wins almost all inter-university quiz bees that our professors sends us to joi

she hits the railings of the balcony “You are very good at words “ “Isn’t is great?” Riley chuckles “I’m good at words and you are not,” he jumps, he literally jumps and spins around enthusiastically like a kid “We are match made in heaven,” he clasps his hands and flutters his eyelids, like butterfly “We are meant to be together, it’s destiny,” he looks up at the bright sky and closes his eyes, Aiden rolls her eyes when he continues to speak in a poetic way “We are destined, you are my half and I’m yours, we are the best couple in this world, No! In this universe,” “Don’t we look unmatched together?,” Aiden scoffs.

She dragged me to the living room. There we saw Zack watching the TV. I think this is going to be fun now. But Emily stopped when she sighted Zack. He was backing us. "Who's he? Your brother?" "I don't have a brother. He's Daniel's business partner." I answered. "Okay, but why's he........." She stopped when Zack turned to face us. "F*ck! F*ck! F*ck!" She screamed. "What's it?" I asked confused even Zack held a surprised look on his face.

Loving my boyfriend's best friend was one of the greatest feelings I had always wanted to get rid of. Harry never looked at me the way Shawn did but as a sister and a friend. So I decided to stick to that but every time I look at him, I'm unable to control these strange feelings I have for him.

she says. I smile, “it won’t be fair if I give the final say. So why don’t we do a quick vote, that way it’s fair and no one feels cheated” I smile, ensuring that I set the tone at the top.
