KYLE
Alex and Maria are slightly behind the rest of us and talking quietly while we four have an uncomfortable silence between us. Looks like someone has to start talking.
"So, what do we need to back for our trip tomorrow, Max?" I ask, since I intent to tag along, the least I can do is show some interest.

I shrug, hoping that it doesn’t show how much it is actually bothering me. Michael and I had been sort of dating and then I was me and managed to screw it up. Of course, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that yet another guy has fallen under Isabel’s spell.
Who would want to go out with the wacky girl next door when they could be with a supermodel?
I had thought that Isabel and I were friends and I can’t believe that she would chase Michael when she already has a date with Kyle tomorrow night and more importantly when she knows that Michael and I were…God, I don’t know what me and Michael were but I know its over now.
“They’re both grown ups. They can do what they want.” I state, ignoring the blast of jealousy that hits me like a bullet.

My eyebrows raise up high when I hear Maria's tone.
"I'm sure nothing is going to happen and that they are just trying to get to know each other better." I say, both to calm her down and me too. "Maybe they'll bond over dancing."
I think about that last sentence for a moment and quickly add, "Only in the friendship way, I mean."

I snort and can‘t help but scoff at Alex‘s words, “yeah because I’m sure that Michael only has friendship in mind every time he looks at our resident leggy goddess.”
Quickly, I remember who I’m talking to and his feelings for Isabel. “But I’m sure that Isabel won’t do anything beyond friendship. And she is going to realize what a great guy you are Alex and if she doesn’t then she is plain stupid!”

My mouth falls open in shock for a second before I close it again. Maria knows too? How? Since when? I told Liz on the first day, then Max when we had our talk about the girls, Tess learned about it on the beach and Kyle heard a talk between Max and Tess (those two really can keep a secret).
"Does anyone in this house not know about my crush?" I ask myself out loud and then turn to Maria, "Forgive me this stupid question but ... since when do you know about it and how? I'm afraid that Jake hit me a bit harder than I thought cause ... I don't remember when you found out. Sorry."
I can feel a blush creeping up my neck while I talk, God, I hope Michael doesn't know it!

I wave my hand dismissively. "Forget it, it's not like you are wrong after all." I sigh, "Besides, as far as I know, only Michael and Isabel dont know about it yet anyway ... unless one of their friends who is watching online told them."
I glance at her, "What about you? Why are you so unhappy about them hanging out? Michael?"

“I guess about as obvious as you then.” I say with a sigh and a smile. “Its not that I’m unhappy that they are hanging out. Its more along the lines of I’m jealous. Michael and I have been kinda dating, kinda not. I don’t know what we were doing but I do know its over now.”
I sigh again, counting the minutes before I can head home and sleep. “I had hoped that I would be able to make it better but I guess I can’t.”

"C'mon, two people are needed for making dating work." I try to cheer her up. Michael does not seem like the dating type anyway, but I better not say that out loud.
I also wonder if I should ask her to drive with since she really does not look very fit but ... she wasn't very happy when Max suggested that at the beginning of this experience once.
"And what do you want to "make better?"" What is that supposed to mean?????

I say a quick good bye to my family and friends. As much as I don’t want them to leave, I know that I have to let them. I came here for a reason, and that was to find out who I am outside of what I was, whether I really am the way I am because it’s who I am, or if I was the way I was simply because it was a role I got cast into. It sounds so convoluted when I try to put it into words.
I hurriedly catch up with the others after we leave Izzy and Michael to their night of fun. Now I’m really puzzled about what’s going on there. And this strange fuzzy feeling my head's swimming in is not helping in the least. I thought that she was going to be going out with Kyle? She went from Jake to Kyle and then with Michael? I wonder how Alex is taking all of this. I look over my shoulder and see that Maria and he are still in a conversation, and I didn’t think it right to interrupt earlier when we were walking away, so I decided walking out closer to Kyle, Max, and Tess would be better.
It was quiet as we were walking out, and I wasn’t sure if there simply wasn’t anything that they thought to talk about. Perhaps it’s the opposite. It wasn’t that they had no thought of what to say. It was that we each had too much to think about to talk about any of it. The statement was true for me at least.
Max made sure my family was here for my birthday?
He orchestrated it all?
And then he didn’t tell me. Why? Why didn’t he say that he was behind it?
Does he not want me to know? He organizes this unbelievable surprise party for me, has my family visit for my birthday, and then says nothing about it, as though the idea for this all was not his.
I don’t understand.
“So, what do we need to pack for our trip tomorrow, Max?” Kyle’s voice stirs me from my thoughts, and I look over from him to Max.
“Oh, you guys are going somewhere tomorrow?” I ask. I think I missed something, which seems to be a trend tonight. They have a trip planned to go somewhere that they would need to pack for? Apparently I’m a little confused about several things this evening.
