On the way home that night Carmen and Fiona talked...Fiona explained she was not very good at making friends and honestly Carmen sort of intimidated her and Carmen admitted that she was worried about losing her oldest friend and that inside she was not as confident as she seemed to project out. So they had hung out a few times when Alex was not around and they found when they were not trying to compete that they did enjoy each others company. And this was sure to make Alex happy.<br/><br/>At school she smiled seeing Alex coming up the stairs and then the kiss sort of shocked her. She was not expecting that at all. It was nice...and she had to admit that kissing Alex was something she had wanted..she was tired of hiding..she was tired of guys staring at Alex as well. Not that she blamed them...Alex was beautiful and smart and sweet..she was just one of those girls who had everything..but now here she was seeming to come out right in the middle of the busy crowded stairwell and a few people did indeed stop and stare at the two of them. One guy even took out his camera phone and started taking pictures until Fiona turned and glared at him."Do you mind?! Its not as if I go about taking pictures of you and yer girlfriend snogging do I?" Another guy snickered as he walked by."That's because he does not have a girlfriend.."The guy glared back and stomped off and looking at Alex she took her hand"Are you sure about this? I mean I don't wanna push you or nothin..I mean I am not complainin or anything..but..I just was not expectin this.."
