Lessons learned

Chapter 38

A subtle knock came from my door  a couple of days later. It swung open to Megan with a smug look on her face, I groaned and started to shut the door before she could say anything. She harshly pressed her palm against the wood  and stepped inside a satisfying smile appeared on her face.

'What the fuck are you doing here?' I asked exhausted, it had been a long week and I really didn't have time to go to war with Megan.

She walked straight over to my desk and moved her hands slowly over my notes, delicately she picked up a page from the top and pretended to read it.

'Megan, what are you doing here?' Indiana echoed standing up to meet her. Megan pushed her gently to the side and locked her eyes on me before smiling devilishly and ripped my notes in half, I stormed towards her out of rage as she reached for the next page.

'What do you want?' I asked when I was face to face with her, the two girls by my side.

'Peter told me that you kissed him a couple of days ago.'

WHAT? Why the fuck?

'He kissed me!' I defended myself while Calli and Indiana looked at each other gasping.

'Oh sure of course he did honey. Why would you expect me to believe that?' Her voice was calm and collective so I decided to match my tone to her's.

'I don't know maybe because you're too insecure about yourself to believe that he would actually do that to you so you feel the need to blame me for his mistakes.' I fired back at her.

'Insecure? Me? Oh Nicolette look at yourself, your body tells a story of a boy that never actually loved you back, you died your hair in the hopes that my boyfriend may find you slightly attractive.'

I felt Indiana getting ready to pounce on Megan but I turned to her and let her know that I had it.

'Look Megan, I didn't kiss him, he kissed me now- you can believe whatever you want.' She rolled her eyes before she reached for yet another bit of paper.

'Why the fuck are you destroying my notes? Haven't you destroyed enough of me already?' I blurted out which made her laugh.

'I'm destroying your notes as a warning, if you fuck with me or my boyfriend again I will fuck with you.'

I laughed at her petty remark.

'That's the threat that you're giving me? Come on Megs, and also stop calling him 'my boyfriend' he's not some property his name is Peter, you don't respect him at all.'

'And you don't respect my relationship, look whatever happens between me and Peter is none of your business and I'd appreciate it if you would stay out of my business.' She stood in front of me and glared coldly.

'None of my business? Megan I think you made it pretty clear that you want me to be involved in this as much as I can be. I know you're only dating him because you know how I felt about him, I know you do all of this shit just to fuck with me.' She dramatically rolled her eyes before crossing over to sit on my bed.

'Oh please honey I have better things to do with my time so don't flatter yourself.' She told me but I laughed at the irony of the entire situation, the fact that she's telling me that she has better things to do yet here she sat.

'You know what Megan, I'm done.' I say exasperated as I threw my arms in the air.

'Done?' Indiana questioned from beside me. 

'Yes I'm done with this entire bullshit, I am done fighting over some guy, I am done falling out with all my friends and lastly I'm done with feeling like crap.' 

'And what exactly are you going to do about it then?' Megan challenged me.

'I'll tell you what I'm going to do, I'm going to march straight down to Peter's dorm right now and put a fucking end to all of this shit.'

Lesson learned; don't let anyone try and control your life and decisions if something is making you feel like shit do something about it.
