On Sunday me and Marcus hung out along with billy and lex. We walked around the city and eventually Willy joined us as well. When we got back to the school Sunday night, people were staring and whispering as I walked by, it was worse when I was next to Marcus. Before bed my brother came into my room, very angry "¡que estabas pensando¡" (what were you thinking!) he said slamming my door and walking over to me "de qué estás hablando"(what are you talking about) I said as I put my stuff to the side "you slept with the rat, at school, are you trying to get kicked out" he yelled sternly. Chico yelling at me was very rare so I knew he was actually really mad but, I also knew if I admitted to it, he'd go after Marcus and We'd be kicked out so, I told a little white lie.

"No I didn't, who said that?" He stood up and paced around the room "everyone is saying it Ona!" I stood up and walked over to him "ok well I didn't, I mean when would I have, the only time he's been in my room he was asleep or we were doing homework with the door open" he stopped pacing and walked up close to me "no te acostaste con el?" (You didn't sleep with him?) he asked placing his hands on my shoulders and looking into my eyes "no" I said back, in a tone even I believed "then tomorrow I'll find out who made it up, ok?" He said as he held my face like I was porcelain "I wanna do it" he looked at me with a raised eyebrow "you're sure" I nodded and he thought for a second "bein, vete a dormir"(fine, go to sleep) he said kissing my head "night" I said as he walked out and closed my door.

Monday morning

The next morning I got up early and took a shower, then put my uniform on and did my hair. I grabbed what I needed for the days classes and started off to the cafeteria for breakfast. When I got there people watched as i got my food and took my seat. When I sat Maria had a smirk on her face "what do you want" I said after I caught her staring at me "is it true?" She said with the same smirk "is what true" I snapped "that you slept with Marcus" she whispered with a laugh "no. It's not." I said blankly. She scoffed "doubt it" she said under her breath.

Just then Marcus walked in and we immediately made eye contact, he nodded me to follow him so I did. Before I left I walked over to Maria, I pulled my blade out and pushed the tip under her jaw, I let the tip poke her and draw just a drop of blood. I watched her air get stuck and she tried to steady her breathing "you have no clue...how lucky you are to be in this school and dating my brother....wait 'til we're out and he finds someone new Maria, you're gonna regret ever stepping to me" I closed my blade and walked away with a smile leaving her gasping for air and the gang slightly laughing.

I walked out into the hall where Marcus was pacing up and down "whoa, what's up with you" I said as I stopped him "I don't know who but someone heard us, and told everyone we slept together" he whispered "I know, and I'm working on who said it, and when I figure it out I'll make them take it back" he shook his head "Ona, I can't be kicked out, I have no where else to go, and your brothers friend already looks like he wants to rip my head off" I cocked my head back a bit shocked "which friend?" He stuttered for a second "bald, neck tattoo, always by his side, asked if I was Mexican on the first day" I shook my head with a scoff  "Juan...look just relax I'll figure it out and he's not going to touch you" he sighed desperately "Marcus you have my word, you're not going to be touched and I'll figure this out, now let's go back before they start saying stuff" he nodded "and if anyone asks, deny. deny. deny, got it?" He nodded again and we walked back into the cafeteria.
