Can you juggle your teenage life?

You look around for an empty classroom until you find one. You walk inside with Tamsin and shut the door so no one can hear the conversation. As you shut the door, you realise Tamsin is still holding your hand.

You: *sigh* "Alright, what's going on? Why does everyone think we are going out?"

Tamsin looked down. She seemed nervous. You decided to go easy on her.

You: "Ok, I don't mean to be harsh. I'm just confused about all this and I just want some answers."

Tamsin: "I'm...I'm sorry...I was talking with someone last night on the phone and they suggested me and you being a couple and I..I..."

You: "You told her it was true?"

Tamsin: "No...it was more like I didn't tell her it was false..."

You are still confused about this.

You: "So, this all started because your friend decided that it was true that me and you were a couple?"

Tamsin: *sigh* "Yes"

You: "And, lemme guess: It spread around"

Tamsin: *looking down at the floor* "Yes..."

You: "Hmmm...wait a second...how did you two get on the subject of me last night?"

Tamsin continued looking at the floor.

You: "Tamsin?"

Tamsin immediately shot her head up.

Tamsin: "Because, I like you, ok?!"

You seemed confused and a little scared.

You: "What? As...as a friend or...?"

Tamsin: "No! Not as a friend...well, kind of as a friend, but I like you the way you like Bridget! I told my friend that and she started making up things about me and you and I...I couldn't stop it! I'm sorry!"

Tamsin dropped to her knees and started crying.

You are still a bit scared but you had to make a move on this.
