Shattered Hearts

She entered the hallway at her school. While walking, she noticed her best friend, Alysha, talking to her boyfriend, Josh. Alysha and Josh had been going out for about three weeks now.
Karen decided not to bother them and walked on. She knew that Alysha would eventually have to come get her books, and since their lockers were right beside each other, she knew she would get a chance to talk to her best friend before their first class.
Karen opened her locker. Like any teenage girl with big crush, she had pictures of her guy up in her locker. Kael Roberts. "What a hottie," she thought. These pictures came from his band practices that he would let people come watch. He played the keyboard and sang for the band One Way Exit. The other members were Zac, Lance, and Alex. Zac was on guitar, Lance on bass, and Alex on the drums. But Karen was not looking at them. Oh no, her attention was focused on Kael.
She took out her hairbrush and began to brush her short, dark brown hair, while looking at herself in her little mirror. She had a gorgeous smile and green eyes.
"I keep telling you to take those pictures down before he walks by and sees them." It was Alysha. She had finished talking with Josh. She was a little shorter than Karen, with short, light brown hair.
"Good morning to you, too," Karen replied.
"Well, I'm just saying. If I saw a locker with a bunch of pictures of me up in it, I'd get kinda scared."
"He would be flattered," she said defensivly, knowing that she would lose this fight, "And besides, there are plenty of other people in the pictures that he wouldn't even notice."
"Dude, he's my cousin. I know what he would think. We like grew up together."
"Okay, fine. But I am leaving the one taped in my Algebra II book." That one was by far her favorite. He was the only one in it. He was sitting at his band's upright piano that had a bumper stickers taped to it, playing and singing into a microphone that was held up by a stand on the piano. His dark hair hung over the top of his face and his right foot was lifted onto a pedal. He wore a black Story of the Year shirt, dark blue jeans, and his black converse.
"Dude, close your locker!" Alysha said suddenly.
"Why?" Karen asked.
"He's walking down here!" she whispered harshly. He was wearing his Brand New shirt this time and as always, dark jeans and converse. His hair was pushed to the side.
Right as Kael walked up to them, Karen slammed her locker shut.
"Hey, y'all. What's up? You aren't hiding anything in there, Karen, are you?" he asked, smiling.
"Of course not," she replied in her kidding matter-of-factly voice.
"You sure? No drugs or alcohol?" he asked again.
"Nope, can't say that I have any," she replied, grinning. He smiled back.
"Alysha, you and your family are eating at my house tonight," he told her.
"I know," she replied.
"You might as well ride home with me. There is no point in you making your 'rents come get you." They both had their license, but Kael already got a car while Alysha's was soon to come.
"That would be nice, but I might have Karen spend the night tonight. Do you have room in your car for another?"
"I always have room for another!" Kael replied. Karen was smiling her gorgeous smile very brightly now. Lance and Zac rode up on their skateboards, followed by Alex running. Alex and Kael did not skateboard.
"Well, I need to get going. My class is way over there," he said.
"Okay, we'll see you at recess," Alysha said.
Kael and Alex began to walk off while Lance and Zac were boarding away. "And Karen, don't let me catch you with any more drugs!" he said playing, and flirting.
"Shh! Don't tell anyone!" Karen called back.
After Kael had walked off, Alysha looked at Karen.
"So Karen, wanna spend the night?" she asked.
"Dude, Alysha, you are like my best friend." Karen told her.
