"Sebastian Colander?" Sienna says slowly, scrunching up her nose.
"Yes, it's Italian." *For spaghetti strainer*, I think.
"Why are you only mentioning him now?"
"Well, you've been talking about your trip and Antonio. And I didn't want to brag." Oooh, burn. But she totally started it. Coming back to school with fake hair, a fake tan, and a fake boyfriend doesn't make you a different person. Maybe just a fake person.

"Exclusive? So what does that mean?" Sienna asks.
"It means they're getting married," Avery cries.
"No, that's engaged," Anica says.
"Yeah, she's right," I affirm. "We're not engaged. Not yet, anyway. We could be though. Someday. Being exclusive is like the step before getting engaged." And then we'll have a fake wedding and a fake house and three adorable fake children. But no fake cats. I'm allergic.

The only reason these girls are hanging with us is that they're drawn to Sea like to a giant tub of buttery popcorn—they can't help but want a little. But take away all the butter and salt, and would the popcorn still taste as good?
Whoa. I think I'm getting a little too philosophical for 7:30 in the morning. And a little hungry.

Honestly, I don't know how people with real boyfriends keep up with them and go to school at the same time. If I get a living, breathing boyfriend, l'll have to lighten my class load.

I don't know about real boyfriends, but fake boyfriends are exhausting. I mean, there is a lot required to keep a relationship going and thriving. This week alone I had two imaginary marathon phone calls with Sebastian, and I fake-baked and mailed him a batch of his favorite M&M cookies (using only handpicked blue M&M's; it's his favorite color and I'm thoughtful like that).

I look at Sienna, and her lips are drawn tight and her eyes are narrowed. I think she may be jealous.
I smile and sing in my head, “My fake boyfriend is better than yours.”

Safely behind my bedroom door, I rip away the plastic wrapper and crack open the crescent-shaped cookie.

Pssh. That's what he thinks.
