"Rea, the best way to get over someone and a past relationship is to start a new one quickly." "Alright, love guru, I get it," I replied, hanging up the phone and flopping onto my bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

I smiled to myself, but then I heard Macy say, "Hayden, you better hurry up. Keira said she dreams about getting married to you." Thud! I shot up in bed. "When did I ever say that?'
