"MINA! Take it seriously! Don't fool around with my Nick Mallory's paperboard!" Trina said with a loud tone on her voice, it was normal for her to scream at her best friend.

"Sorry, Trina! I'm terribly sorry…" Mina responded lightly, was one of those days that Mina was roleplaying as Nick Mallory using the huge paperboard lifesize of the cute boy.

Basically practice for Trina to speak to Nick.

"Hmm…Nick Mallory loves paperboard practice." Mina said using a light deep voice.

"Ugh…" Trina responded, lightly rubbing her eyes before she took a deep breath.

"Hiiiii Nick…look, after all this time…with all the complex and unnecesary plans I usually come with, I have decided to finally do the simple thing and just tell you how I feel…" Gently told Trina which was unusual for her to use a light tone in her voice.

But something had to be done.

"May I speak with you for a moment?" Trina said with a nervous smile even tho she was speaking to a paperboard.

Then Mina responded using her Nick tone. "Nick Mallory is intrigued, what is it you want to talk about, Trina Riffin?"

"Well, you and me have know each other for a long time. Just as much as I know my brother and my best friend…you're…the most popular boy in my school and I'm the most popular girl in school and so…it's…logical that you and I shall…"

As she listened, Mina's heart was pounding for some reason.

Time passed by and Trina kept speaking like if she was writing in her diary, all those feelings that she have kept away locked down in a piece of paper that nobody else has read…except maybe Corey.

"What I'm trying to say Nick is that…I like YOU! I like you since the moment I saw you and I don't say it because your handsome and interesting and so dedicated to the things you like…that for some reason there are a lot of things you like…"

As the speech kept going, Mina looked at Trina from behind the paperboard.

Right there, she was giving her heart to Nick, but didn't looked straight at the paperboard, like if she wasn't really ready to say that to the real Nick, Mina felt her cheeks burning.

Without warning, Mina felt the words slipping out of her lips.

"I like you too…"

That interrupted Trina who at first made a angry face before realizing what she just said, Mina then gasped and blushed madly, beginning to try and correct what she just said.

"What Nick is trying to say…Trina Riffin is that Nick has been in love with you too…but Nick has been unable to say it too…and…" Mina felt like if her heart would burst of her chest out any moment and said. "Who am I kidding…"

Whoever knew Trina, they would assume that Trina would be mad and would make a fuzz about it but that wasn't something that happened to her any day.

That was shocking and Trina was frozen.

So what Mina decided to do was left the paperboard go and began to run. "I'm sorry! I gotta go!" Mina began running out of Trina's room.

Using the door to the garage, Mina went down the stairs, Corey and his band noticed Mina running out of the garage and stopped playing.

"Wow…" Corey said. "What's up with Mina?"

Looking at Kin and Kon, they shrugged.

"Think Trina was being a bitch with her again." Laney said.

"Well, we'll see when Trina gets here and starts screaming at us for no reason. Which will happen anytime…now…" Corey said with a smile on his face as he looked at the door up the stairs.

Nobody came in.

"Anytime now…"

"Should we continue our practice?" Laney asked but Corey was too distracted.

"Anytime…"

Later at Mina's house, Carrie was walking over towards her bedroom and saw that Mina was at her room, staring at the ceiling.

"You're home? Wow, you're usually at Trina's house. Are you alright? Bernadette?"

"Hey Carrie…I'm alright don't worry…just thinking."

Gently, Carrie walked over to Mina's bed and gently layed right next to her. "Thinking about what?"

"Well…stuff…"

"What kind of stuff?"

Cornered, Mina bit her lower lip softly and responded. "If it's alright with you Carrie…I would like to try and forget it…cause…I'm just not ready to speak about it."

"Alright. Well…I'm done practicing with my band and dunno I can't remember the last time since you and I had a sisters time. How about having a slumber party? Like the old times?" Carrie suggested with a smile.

Sighing softly, Mina smiled back, he hadn't spend time with Carrie in a long time…probably because she wanted to become Trina's best friend.

"Alright."

Giving a soft laugh, Carrie then said. "GREAT!"

They began to talk, they changed into pajamas. Watched some sitcoms on tv, a movie, had dinner on the bed.

What they usually did before Mina became Trina's best friend.

"Missed this…" Mina said softly.

"Me too. You know…when we were younger, you sorta were my role model, I've always wanted to be like you Bernadette…you're honest with everyone, you make them feel like they matter, which…brings me to ask you this and I'm sorry but…I've always wanted to ask you. Why do you keep being on Trina's side if she treats so badly?"

"Uh…"

"What's wrong with your real name too? You stopped calling yourself Bernadette, you changed it legally because of her. I like Bernadette…I mean…you've changed…a bit and I just disapprove that you keep following Trina…sorry to bring this up but I'm worried about you sis, don't be mad at me."

"Not mad at you Carrie, thanks for worrying about me." Mina smiled.

"Can I still call you Bernadette?"

Then Mina chuckled lightly. "That's my name so it's okay."

"So are you going to respond to my question…? Why do you keep following Trina?"

"She's my best friend…"

"Well, maybe I'm wrong but best friends don't treat you the way that Trina treats you."

"Wouldn't be fair if I treat her the same way, right?"

"You're too good for your own good."

"Glad you think so." Mina said with a smile. "Enough about me…you're older now, you're probably interested in boys now huh? Anyone on your mind now?"

"Hehe…not really. Been to busy with my band and writing songs."

"What about Larry?"

"What about him?"

"Nevermind…"

"Anyway, since you've brought this up, how about you? Anyone in your mind? I'm going to take a wild guess…Nick Mallory."

"Nah…he's eye Candy to me I'll admit it…but I don't really see myself in a relationship with Nick."

"Wow, it's actually quite surprising you're not as obssesed with Nick Mallory as the rest of the girls in Peaceville."

"To be honest I like someone else." Mina then placed her hand over her mouth.

"Ohhhhh…and who might that be?"

"Nobody."

"The guy at the hipster café?"

"No…"

"What about the guy who sits next to you in chemistry?"

"No."

"Well, if it isn't any of those guys, who is it?"

"Hmm…"

"Bernadette, you can trust me." Carrie smiled.

"Well…I uh…"

Giving a soft laugh, Carrie then gently said. "Well, you should try and tell the guy?"

"Actually…I think I just did…"

"REALLY?!" Carrie asked surprised, with a light glee on her voice.

"But…I ran away."

"Huh? Why?"

Sighing softly, Mina responded. "To be honest…there is no way that sh…I mean he would feel the same way."

"You won't know that unless you talk with him again…"

"There is no way…Carrie, no way."

"Why? You're beautiful Bernadette. If you keep a low self estime you won't know, you gotta go to him and tell him that again."

The speech kept going, Carrie didn't stopped until Mina finally got the words out.

"It's Trina."

"And…what did you just said?" Carrie gasped in surprise.
