"Look, Shay. Give me a minute to explain. I have a lot to say." She felt her eyes welling up, she went in another room. "I know what I did was wrong, and if that was you I would've reacted the same way, I'd be mad too. Also, if you were just trying to protect me. I understand, you were being a good friend, whatever the reason is, I agree. Me and Dylan talked it over, we're both very angry at ourselves, and promised it wouldn't happen again! We both know it was wrong, but caught up in the moment. Please, Please forgive me! I'm so sorry! I miss my BFF." Tess sighed, hoping Shay would understand, and that was a mouth full.

"Alright, I can wait. I'll give you a ride home, of course! You didn't need to ask, I brought you hear, i'll take you home." Austin could hear Tess talking, she was apologizing, what for? What went on between her and Shay? Should he ask, or was that a touchy subject? Maybe when they're at her house, when she's getting out of the car.

"Shut up and leave me alone," Shay snapped.  Her mind reeled.  The gears in her head were obviously working overtime.  Should she forgive her BFF?  Deciding quickly, she said, "I hate you!  I mean, how could you think that... that.." she was partially yelled.

"How could you think that...!"  She yelled, and after a pause, she said nicely, "That I wouldn't take you back?"  Smiling, she knew this was the right choice.  And a little drama over the phone wouldn't hurt.

Tess's face broke out into a smile once Shay finished. "Oh, thank God. I'll always love you, and never do anything like that again. I never want to lose you, I was so miserable, let's hang out sometime, we haven't had real BFF time in a while." She was very happy that Shay forgave her.

"What's goin' on with you and Shay?" Austin didn't feel as weird asking Shay now that her and Tess had just made up with eachother, from what seemed like a fight, and they never fight, they're totaly BFFS.

Austin walked out of the arena, where they had been for the concert, and locked arms with Shay. he had a smile plastered on his face, this had turned out to be a pretty good night, even if it hadn't started that way.

"I know, it's getting pretty late, maybe you can ride the bus home with me tomorrow after school?" Tes offered to Shay.

"Oh, well. That's what I usually do too, but I'm not this time because I wanna spend with my bud." She said, sort of disapointed her friend wasn't willing to spend time with her.

Austin got to their car, and he opened the door for Shay.

Tess hung up her phone, and walkede back into the room with Sarah. "She forgave me, and we're friends again. Thanks so much for helping me, I owe you one, unless you count the algebra thing."

"So, you and Tess made up? I didn't know anything happened between you, wanna talk about it? You said you'd tell me later." Autsin didn't want to sound pushy, but he wanted to know.

"Haha," Sarah laughed, "It's all good.  Hey, see you tomorrow at school?"  She gathered her things and stood at the door, waiting for a reply.

"I was going to tell you now," Shay said.  She smiled.  "Yeah, Tess and I had a fight right before you called 'bout the concert.  Just a BF/GF issue that BFFs have.  But it's alright now."  She looked up at him.  "Good enough of an explanation for you?" she teased.

"Yep, we will." Tess just ahd to call Dylan before it got any later, she had to say what happened with her and Shay, and that it's all okay now, she took out her phone, and waited for him to pick up.

"Well..." Austin's voice trailed off, he wished she'd explain it in more detail, maybe he'd be bored, maybe he wouldn't understand. SHay did everything for the better, she's smart. "Yes, it is."

"Hurrmm," Dylan groaned.  "Yeah, that's great that you two made up... Now how come you're up this late?" He had checked the clock - 10:45 P.M.

(And tomorrow is Valentine's day in the RP world. O.o What plans would Tess have?!! The boys are supposed to do the plans!!! )
