Middle School

The Rumors

***ADELE'S P.O.V***

"Ey Makayla!" I shouted across the hallway. "Have you heard about the rumors going around on Facebook?"

"WHAT?! No are they bad?" Makayla pled in a worried tone.

"Yea they aren't the best thing.

I heard Kaylee is telling people that she saw you and Nat fighting and she beat you up!"

She is telling everyone that you are such a wimp and that you let the skinniest, scrawniest girl in the 6th grade pound you to the ground. Is it true?"

***MAKAYLA'S POV***

"Is it true?" Adele said to me.

She knows it isn't true! I can't believe her! I am so mad right now I could just...just...

SMACK! All I heard was the sound of me punching her in her nose.

"Oh...My...Gosh" I screamed with panic in my voice!

I don't know what happened something just came over me!

"I-I didn't mean it Adele! I swear!!" I stampered.

What have I just done? Have I ruined everything for me? For us? Is our friendship over?

After school I go to Adele's house and I just burst through the door like it is my own. I stand there talking rubbish about how sorry I am and how anger overcame me. I can't believe I did what I did.

"Adele I am super sorry! You know that right?"

I stand there like an idiot waiting for the reply I know I'm not going to get.

"I don't know if I can believe you Makayla. You may have just ruined our friendship!"

I remember when we first met, we vowed we would always be friends and never EVER let anything get in the way of our friendship. We promised to always be there for each other through thick and thin.

We always used to play fight but this was too far!

"You know I will always love you Adele!" I mumbled as I waked out if the door. I was so sad. She is my best friend. I hope I don't have to change that to was. I started I cry as I wandered aimlessly up the road. I pulled out my phone and tried to call Adele. It's ringing!

No answer. I call again.

Same. I give it one last chance.

"...What do you want?!"

" I want to talk about what happened."

Click. She hung up.

I am so disappointed in myself. I run home and go in the bathroom, look in the mirror. I see a blade in my hand,scars all over my body, blood all over my clothes. I splash water in my face and scream. "It's okay Makayla, just put down the blade!" I have to listen to myself! I put it down and decide to take a shower to wash away the day.
