We've skipped all the holidays and jumped right to February, specifically Valentine's Day - so their second Valentine's Day of their 8th grade year.
MaryAnne loves Logan, but lately she's been feeling smothered by him. He always takes the lead and plans all their dates, tries to convince her to ditch her friends/babysitting jobs to hang out with him, etc. On a particularly freezing day when MA just wants to stay inside and read, he randomly shows up at her house so they can go ice skating, build snowmen, make snow angels, etc. MaryAnne begs him to take her home, and he gets all huffy.
She decides they need to chill out so she can think, so she tells him she wants to cool off their relationship for awhile. He gets mad, but has no choice but to do it. So a few weeks go by, and then he calls during a BSC meeting and asks her to babysit on Valentine's Day. She agrees, but when she gets there it's a romantic date night Logan has arranged. She reminds him that she wanted to cool off for awhile, and he's all "we did, that's over now". So MA is frustrated.
Finally, she decides enough is enough. So she asks him to go to the park, and she dumps him.
Also, Jenny Prezzizo's mom is having a baby, and Jenny is a huge brat about it until the baby is born, and then she is obsessed with her sister.
Takeaways:
It's weird how MA is such a follower, but she gets mad when Logan plans everything for her.
Also, it's kind of creepy that Logan wants to "show everyone what a great couple they are" when they are ice skating. It's just weird for an 8th grade boy to care about "showing" people what a great couple he and his 8th grade girlfriend are.
Best character:
I don't even know. I guess MA because she finally stands up for herself?
Worst character:
There really isn't a worst character. Logan is kind of overbearing, but then he cries when he gets dumped so that's sad. I guess I will say Jenny, because she's quite the little b word about her new sister coming.
