Tattooed Troublemaker Again

Chapter 16: Another One

A week later, I called up her friend, Lacey. While in my room with the door shut, sitting on my bed, I called her.

"Oh Autumn, this is a surprise, I haven't heard from you in a while," she answered the phone.

"Yeah, I know, Scarlet's out of jail and back at school. She took the plead deal."

She chuckled, "I knew that bitch would take the deal and get out, she always trying to take the easy way out, that's why she tried to run from the situation and from me."

I told her the story Scarlet told me and Lacey laughed, "She's lying, for goodness sakes, she was after him because they messed around and she thought she could steal him away from his girlfriend, so she got jealous and pushed him off the roof like the banshee she is when he said he wouldn't leave his girl for her."

I chuckled and shook my head, "I knew it, I knew she was lying."

"That's all she does, look, I'll be there tomorrow, besides, it's always nice to visit my old school."

Lacey graduated from Shamrock almost three years ago. While she was a senior, Jett, Scarlet, and I were freshmen. Scarlet would hang around her and her circle. After Lacey graduated, that's when the roof thing happened.

"Alright, bye." I hung up the phone and smirked. Tomorrow would be interesting.

The next day, I was sitting on the bench at the school patio when Scarlet came up to me, "Hey Autumn."

I didn't bothered to plaster a fake smile on my face, I kept on my glare, "What??"

"I don't know why you have a wall up around me, I told you, I'm not that person anymore."

I shook my head, this bitch wasn't about to bamboozle me like she tried to trick the other people around her, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're like a broken record, you stay saying the same thing."

She sighed and folded her arms across her chest, "Well, I don't know what else to say, I mean, I told you the reason why everything went down the way it did and you're still giving me the cold shoulder." Since she was still standing, I had to look up at her.

She took it upon herself to sit down, "Autumn, we still have some unfinished business."

"As if I didn't know," I replied smartly.

It irked me that she was still trying to pull this 'changed woman' act, but she was still the same. She was plotting against me and she didn't know that I knew. I was going to keep it that way.

When she opened her mouth to say something, the bell rang. I gathered my things and went to class. Once I got there, I sat down. Some classmates asked me what it was like to have Scarlet back and I said, "It's like she's not even there. I don't care for her." When Emmy showed up, I called her over and whispered in her ear, "Someone told me that Callie's cheating on Dean with Evan."

Her eyes widen with shock, "Foreal??" She saw her friends come into the class and she said, "Aye, Anisha girl, I got tea!"

Anisha rushed over and sat next to her, I faced the front of the room, still listening to what they were saying, "Yeah, no wonder why she's all up in Dean's ass, she's doing her dirt too!"

Half an hour later, the bell rang. After going through the sea of students, I saw a crowd form. "So you're seeing my girl??" I heard a voice yell. It was Dean. I pushed my way through and saw him and Evan about to square up.

"Aye, she came onto me, I didn't hit that, I know she's loose, your girl has been passed around more than a damn football."

The crowd oohed as they continued to watch.

When Dean didn't say anything, Evan said, "See? You can't say shit because you know it's true. You cuffed a hoe."

"Who you calling a hoe??" Callie pushed her way through the crowd of students to get to the two guys.

"You."

"Whatever Evan, I never tried to sleep with him Dean, whoever told you was lying! I never tried anything with him!" She yelled.

"Why would I lie about something like that?" We turned our attention to where the voice came from. It was Lauren Seas.

She smirked as she sauntered towards them and said, "Besides, you sleep with anything with a pulse, even dogs."

Callie lunged towards her, grabbing her hair and dragging her to the floor. Lauren punched her in the face with a, 'SMACK!'  The crowd hissed as if they could feel her pain. She continued to whoop her as they pulled her off of her.

"Don't try to run up on me, bitch!" Lauren shrieked as they security hauled her to the office.

The crowd dispersed and the bell rang to go home. I went to the student parking lot, waiting by my car. Finally, Lacey showed up. We greeted each other and waited for Scarlet to show up.

It seemed like eternity. What was this bitch doing? Lacey huffed, "What's taking her so long?" She checked her phone.

A while later, she finally showed up. As she approached the parking lot, her eyes landed on me, then on Lacey. Once she saw her, all color from her face drained.

"Hi, Scarlet!" Lacey put on a cheery voice, drawing attention from other people near us. She went up to her and engulfed her in a bear hug. Scarlet didn't return it, since her arms were at her sides.

Lacey pulled away and brought her over to me by grabbing her hand. I knew she held onto it tightly as Scarlet winced a bit.

"I know you told Autumn that whack ass story," she got straight to the point, still holding onto her hand tightly.

"Yeah." Scarlet confessed.

"So, you're a wannabe man stealer? Wow, so you're talking all this shit about hoes, yet you're quick to open your legs to somebody that's taken? Bitch, get your life," I said, making Lacey chuckle.

"Yeah, get it, Scarlet because it's out there somewhere," she replied with a smile, she held her grip on her hand.

"Fine, I'll tell the truth," Scarlet winced as Lacey's grip tightened on her hand.

"Good, now let's hear it."
