Alexandro's POV:

It has been two weeks since returning to school and let me tell you it's stressful. I have a hectic schedule between my AP classes and football tryouts, but I still managed to sleep with a few girls.

Today is Monday again and it's the third week of school and guess what? We already have two tests coming so I spend most of my time at the school's library with Darcy and Clair studying because they are in my AP classes too.
"Are you still not talking to Sam and Nate?"asks Clair

"They hang out but you can feel the tension. Like the other night Alex and me were talking about his dad and Irina taking a few weeks off to celebrate their first anniversary and he was telling me about going for the weekends to visit his old friends,and Sam was surprised because he hasn't told them and we were talking about it for two weeks. It was a nightmare Sam and Nate were so sad they spent the whole night poutting in the corner" replied Darcy

"Why did you do that Alex?"asked Clair

"Well they have been keeping secrets from me too. It's not like I'm keeping something major just some plans that it" I replied

"The weekend you decieded to visit old friends happened to be the weekend you've spent ages planing for a trip with Sam and Nate" said Darcy

"That was the only weekend available for my trip"

"And it's the only one available for their's too"

"Why would I take into consideration their feelings but they don't care about mine? It was hard for me to open up and I trusted them and they kept secrets from me"

"Aren't they allowed to have privacy?" Says Clair

"They do that's not what I'm saying it's how they reacted to me. Sam was literally going to punsh me if I didn't walk away. It may be personal but it's not a way to talk to your friend who was only worried about them" I said annoyed "I have to go.I'll see you tomorrow" I said while walking away from them. When I looked up I saw that it's already night and when I walked back trying to see if they need a ride, I saw Sam and Nate walking out with them. Have they been in the library all this time? Is this a way to trick me to talk about my feelings? I was angry but  I restrained myself and walked back to my car and driving off.

The next day I decieded to arrive earlier  than my team,finish my trainings,and go sit in the classroom avoiding any kind of confrontation with my friends. I want to the locker room and changed and want to the field. When I got there I was surprised to find Lucas training too.

"Here to train early too?" He asks me.

"Yeah I'm trying to clear my head. I don't know I was planning to play some basketball, wanna play 1 on 1?" I replied.

"Sure why not." He replied.

We were here too early like 6AM and the traning is at 8. We played for some time and then we decided to rest a bit and drink some water.

"Are you and Sam not talking?" He asked me.
  "Not really" I replied. "Nate and Sam are hiding some secrets from me and when I tried to ask them they snapped on me. I don't know,they are my friends but I am not comfortable"

"It's about Marc isn't it?"

"Yeah" I replied.
"Look, I can tell you're a genuine guy but our groupe of friends are at war. And you do understand that. I don't want what's happening but we have too. Alot happened these few years and you entered in the middle of the war if you wanna call it that, and there is alot we don't know and we're a part of it. That means of course you wouldn't know what is happening. We are just waiting on Mark to return to know the extent of what happened two years ago. The only person who knows much about this is Mark's cousin and the couple themselves and I don't think Sam is ready to open the closet so don't wast time away from your friends you don't know what would happen next" He said and then left to change.
I look around and see Nate and Darcey  watching me with frowns on their faces. I shrugged and want after Lucas to change.

Darcey's POV:

Those past two weeks have been difficult to say the least. I hate that my secret is breaking three friends apart but it's necessary. Last night we tried to make Alex,Sam and Nate make up,but he left the library pissed.

"Let's just go to school early and wait for him." I tell them. We seperate after that and Sam,my handsome mate,is taking me home.
"Do you think we did a mistake?" Asks Sam.
"I do,Sam. But we can't tell him what happened,he'd look at us disgusted." I replied
"Look  I can feel how sad you are. You think that you are breaking a group of friends. It's understandable but you don't have to. It's like the first real test of our new friendship. He's right you know? We kept a few thing from him and he's confused. Let's give it time" said Sam.

I love Sam. He considers my feelings and tries to sheer me up. It's supposed to be the other way around but I think the mate bond makes us always choose each other and consider the other's feelings.

"I think that you are tired Sam let me take Nate tomorrow  with me. You could use a few more hours of sleep."
"Thanks honey"

The next day:
"Thank you Nate for meeting me here. Sam needs to rest a bit" I say as soon as I see Nate.
"No problem Darcey. You're my mate's chosen I'd do every thing for you" he replies.

I can feel how genuine  he is. Nate always have been a good person even after all the shit he want through. I'm happy that Sam have such an amazing and loyal friend.

"But it's still half past seven in the morning why so early?" Asks Nate
"Because we need to an Bush him to make him talk to you and it's the only way. After yesterday, Clair refused to intervene between you three and I feel like it's my responsibility to help you reconcile."
"It's not you fault Dar. We chose to keep it a secret from him it's only fair for us to try and make things right."
We had met at the parking lot outside school and now we are on our way to wait for him on the field. Than we saw his car parked outside.
"Looks like he already  is here" I say
"It's now or never. Come on Dar let's see were he is" replies Nate.
We walked to the locker room and he's not there. "Let's see if he is on the field" I say.
"Maybe he's banging someone in the closet" says Nate.
"You're disgusting" I say and Nate shrugs.
We arrived to the field and still no sign of Alexandro.
"Where could he be?" I say,frustrated.
"Try looking toward the basketball court".I could feel his frown. I looked around,and surely, there was Alexandro playing a match with... "Lucas?" We say at the same time.
I am devastated.

Nate's POV:

In those two weeks, we've been hanging around Alex but he acts like nothing's happening and he is very distant with us. Sam and I are getting frustrated from this situation but we can't do anything about it. Yesterday, Clair and Darcey tried to trick him but after I heard  what he said I feel even more guilty for keeping this from him.

Right now, Darcey and I are trying to corner him again at school. We searched every where for him and he's still no where to be found. I was about to suggest we wait at the lockers when I saw him playing with Lucas and they were talking and laughing.
"Try looking towards the basketball court" I tell Darcey,frowning.
"Lucas" we say at the same time. My heart is breaking right now. We pushed him to far. Like I understand we kept a few or more things from him but it's for his own good. We like him and we want him to stay friends with us but right now, I feel like I just lost him. We were frowning and we were in another world that we almost missed him looking at us and then walking towards the changing rooms probably to take a shower.
