Schools

i have a really good friend who i usually tell all if my secrets to... And they tell me theirs. I think i might have a crush on them but i am totally dening it and even though i am i dont want to deny it it but i cant because my other friend likes this person too and i cant like this peraon also because that would be too weird. On top of all that, i may never see this person i like after the school year ends because they want to go to a diferent school next year! So my questions are:

1) what do i tell my friend who likes the same person as me?

2) how do i convince the person that i like to go to the same school as the rest of us next year?
