Someone Like You. P 1-100

Halley is off at summer camp when she gets a phone call. It is her best friend Scarlett telling her that her semi-secret boyfriend Michael had been killed. She then comes home to be with Scarlett although her mother is not very happy about it. Scarlett is really having trouble coping because no one even knew that her and Michael were even together. Halley is there for Scarlett but sometimes not sure how to respond to her. They go to the funeral and it is very hard for Scarlett to see Michael's exgirlfriend being sad because she was actually with Michael. After the funeral it begins to rain and as they are driving home, they see Macon, Michael's best friend, walking. They ask if he wants a ride but he says no. He seems to be very sad and upset too. When they return to school Halley runs into Macon again in the office while she is changing her schedule. They talk for awhile and Halley realizes that she is crushing on him. He later asks her to go to this party. She talks with Scarlett and they decide to go, but when they are there they cant find him. They go back home where they are talking and decide he is stupid and not worth it. Then later that night, Macon comes over and tells Halley there was a misunderstanding and he was there. They end up kissing. Then the next day Halley is doing her chores to please her mother and Macon comes over and helps her mow the lawn.
