After school...

Alyss sighed. Of all the boys in Araluen High, Jenny just had to date Gilan Davidson. It wasn't Gilan's fault, he was really nice and all, it was just his friends, Will and Horace. Alyss slammed her locker shut.

"Something wrong?" asked a quiet voice.

"Ye-" she turned around and came face-to-face with Will Treaty.

"Nothing." She turned to go.

"Alyss, wait." Will gently grabbed her wrist.

"Let me go you bastard!" she hissed

"Please." Will looked so sad that Alyss relented.

"Fine, 1 minute Treaty." She said, leaning against her locker.

"IknowIwasajerktoyouinthepas-" Will started to belt out but Alyss held up a hand to stop him.

"Just say it normally, I'll give you 3 minutes." she looked at him, she would never admit it, but she was curious about what he had to say.

"I know I was a jerk to you in the past. I'm truly sorry. I really want to be friends. can't we put the past behind us? I promise I'll behave!' Will pleaded desperately, praying that she would say yes.

"Fine, but this is your last chance Treaty, try anything funny I will kick your ass. Got it?" Alyss knew she would soon regret this later.

'Got it." Will grinned at her, his happiness was infectious and Alyss smiled back, then frowned.

"This does not mean we're friends, we're just...not going to murder each other right now." She said, picking up her bag and walking towards the parking lot. Will smiled and leaned against the lockers, that sports car was sooo his.

Flashback

Will was walking to his locker when Masari Williams shoved him into the janitors closet. Will recovered quickly and lunged for the door, but Masari blocked him.

"What do you want Masari?" hissed Will. The 2 boys hated each other fiercely, yet no one really knew why.

"I'll bet you a brand new car, any car that's under $50,000 if you can get Mainwaring in bed by the end of the term." Masari smirked, Will Treaty was the kid who would pet an electric eel for cash.

"You're on. What terms?" Will didn't even bother thinking twice about what he was doing.

"She was to be fully conscious of what she's doing, I want a video for proof, If I win, you go dateless for a year. If you win, any car under $50,000 is yours." Will smirked, this was gonna be a piece of cake..."

End of flashback

Will ran after Alyss.

" Hey Alyss! Could I come over and work on the project with you?" she turns around, frowning.

" I'll have to sneak you past my cousins."

" Why?"

" Really? You don't know? You're being this dumb?"

" Oh, right. sorry." Will took a sudden interest in his shoes. She laughed, Will loved how her laugh was so clear and bright, like sunshine. Great. He thought. I'm thinking like a poet...

" I'm kidding, my younger cousins are sleeping over at a friends, and Alex has a date tonight. You'll be fine." She walked over to a Navy blue sports car.

" Coming?" She asks. Will grinned and slid into the shotgun seat. Alyss smiled mischievously.

" Hold on!" She floored the accelerator, it took only 2 minutes to get back to her house.

" Wow, your place is huge." Will admired the elegant, castle-like mansion. Alyss shrugged, and gently shoved him inside.

They were sitting in the living room, listening to the radio when Moments by One direction came on. Will held his hand out to Alyss.

" May I have this dance?" Alyss sighed, then smiled.

"Just this once." She rested her hands on his shoulders. Will placed his hands gently on her waist.

Shut the door

Turn the light off

I wanna be with you

I wanna feel your love

I wanna lay beside you

I cannot hide this

Even though I try

Heart beats harder

Time escapes me

Trembling hands

Touch skin

It makes this harder

And the tears stream down my face

If we could only have this life

For one more day

If we could only turn back time

You know I'll be

Your life

Your voice

Your reason to be

My love

My heart

Is breathing for this

Moment

In time

I'll find the words to say

Before you leave me today

Close the door

Throw the key

Don't wanna be reminded

Don't wanna be seen

Don't wanna be without you

My judgment's clouded

Like tonight's sky

Hands are silent

Voice is numb

Try to scream out my lungs

It makes this harder

And the tears stream down my face

If we could only have this life

For one more day

If we could only turn back time

You know I'll be

Your life

Your voice

Your reason to be

My love

My heart

Is breathing for this

Moment

In time

I'll find the words to say

Before you leave me today

Flashing lights in my mind

Going back to the time

Playing games in the street

Kicking balls with my feet

There's a numb in my toes

Standing close to the edge

There's a pile of my clothes

At the end of your bed

As I feel myself fall

Make a joke of it all

You know I'll be

Your life

Your voice

Your reason to be

My love

My heart

Is breathing for this

Moment

In time

I'll find the words to say

Before you leave me today

You know I'll be

Your life

Your voice

Your reason to be

My love

My heart

Is breathing for this

Moment

In time

I'll find the words to say

Before you leave me today

Will starred into Alyss's silver grey eyes and she starred into his chocolate brown eyes. They both leaned in slowly, and just as their lips met, the front door opened.

Shit

Alex was home.
