Unlovable

14: Miss Steal Your Man

"Watch it." She glared at me as I fell to the ground, landing on my backpack. Momentarily, I wished I had talked to Bea about her, but Dorothy wasn't worth the time of day. I genuinely didn't care about her enough to even mention her bullying to my therapist. Not that she'd exactly bullied me, well technically...

I stood up without a word and began walking away. We weren't children in high school for her to be acting this way. If she disliked me, she should've just said it to my face.

"I saw your little pictures this morning. You thought you could hide the truth, slobbering all over Abel's face like that. He's not the type of guy to go after girls like you." She said, clearly with the intention to hurt me as I stopped in my tracks.

Girls like me? Emotionally unstable girls that sleep around. Yeah I wondered the same thing, turns out Dorothy was wrong. But it's none of her business.

"Okay." I said, turning around and facing her. She clearly needed help too considering she was standing out the therapists office. She had some inner demons to deal with, so why did she feel it was necessary to bully me.

"Exactly, you're literally just a toy to him and once he uses you enough times, he'll throw you out like he did to Claire." She smirked, crossing her arms as I struggled not to react.

"Dorothy. I don't know what your problem with me is, but I hope you get the help you need. And I'm pretty sure Claire broke up with him." I said. I would certainly write down what I wanted to say later and throw it in a shredder. It wasn't worth it t get mad at a jealous bitch that knew nothing about my situation.

But if I were to react, I would've said the following:

First of all, bitch, mind your own business. Abel's life is his own and he can make his own choices. And according to those pictures you saw, he chose me. And Claire was the one who dumped him and begged for him to come back, had she not left him, things wouldn't have so beautifully worked out for me. So you can take your jealous ass self and leave me alone. And I'm glad you and the rest of the sorority could have seen my beautiful naked body next to Abel's, yes we fucked and kissed a whole lot and every second of it was amazing.

I took a deep, calming breath as I watched her cheeks turn a bright red.

"Bye Dorothy. See you at the Kappa Phi meeting tonight." I said, walking out and heading toward my dorm, taking a deep breath. It was hard to keep that mask on all the time. Pretending to not care; I guess that's why I liked hanging out with Abel so much. The mask could come off.

Abel

Message to: Abel
I'm by the health offices. Come get me with that cute tight ass of yours

Abel
My tight ass and I are on our way

I smiled at our messages. He could be so cute... almost all the damn time. I sat by a bench, letting my hair fall in front of my face as I looked at my phone, re-reading Abel and I's messages as a happy smile spread across my face.

We hadn't exactly talked about why he had avoided me for a month, but I was just glad that he was so forgiving and kind and loving last night. I smile stupidly at my phone.
