3RD POV
SUMMER

the screen cuts out to the torres twins and tara. they're walking to their class in the courtyard. drea is in the middle as everyone is staring at her, but she hasn't noticed yet.

"i don't believe that montana's actually celiac. and i'm not gonna choose some random restaurant for my birthday dinner just because of another restaurant having a better gluten free menu! makes no sense, like she's so selfish sometimes." tara finishes as drea cuts her off. "i'm sorry, am i being paranoid or is everyone staring at y/n right now?" she says, as y/n answers her question. "no, dre, they're staring at you. i'm only getting sympathy." they mutter the last part, not wanting their best friends to hear as they would probably start smothering them with love. "love your video, drea! you deserved it, y/n!" some girl says as she walks by the trio. tara suddenly gets a notification on her phone, and shows drea. "oh my god." she says.

"max!" drea shouts, as she's walking up to said person, as y/n and tara follow her. "baby, i'm already on the phone talking to my dads lawyer. uh, i gotta go. thank you, derek." max says as he gets off the phone with derek. "hey." max breathes out. "how could you do this to me?" drea says angrily. "what?" says max, playing along that he doesn't know what's going on. "i didn't do this, i got hacked?" he says. drea looks at him confused and she scoffs. "baby, come on. i would never do this... i love you." everyone is filming. drea punched him!

"this is bullshit." drea says. she has an ice pack on her hand. she is in the headmistresses office. "i'm sorry you feel that way." she says. "will your mother or sister be joining us?" "no. and don't call them my sister. they're my sibling and they're proud to identify as they are." drea says, protecting her best friend. "my mother works nights, so she's asleep. and i told y/n not to follow me." drea says, as the headmistress starts up again. "drea, i want you to know this brings me absolutely no pressure. if you had just come to me when you saw the video, we" "oh so this is my fault?" drea cuts off.

"the video? of course not. the way you handled it, that leaves such to be desired." drea fidgets with her ice pack looking at her lap. "drea, we all have hard truths to be contended with. yours is that your peers have the luxury of operating on impulse. you don't. the only way to get is for you to be smarter. and i thought you were a girl who was smarter." "i am smarter." drea answers, as she looks her headmistress in the eye. "that being said... you did sucker punch rosehill's golden boy. impressive, by the way. so, i am putting you on behavioral probation, along with mandatory community service. and, if you have any altercations with max, as your headmaster, i will have no choice but to provoke your scholarship. today, you let your anger control you. from now on, i want you to control it. channel the anger into getting what you want."

"so obviously, that video was fucked. but max didn't leak it. he wouldn't do that drea. punching him has really put us all in a weird spot. he's like our family. i think we all just need the summer to process. see you next year.

'so much for believing women. that day, our life went up in flames. and there was nothing we could do. if dre went after max and lost our scholarship, she'd have to kiss her future goodbye. y/n, shush! i kept asking myself the same question: why would he do this to me? looking back, it was a classic icarus story. i flew to close to the sun, so my boyfriend leaked my sex tape. i hated max, but even more than that, i hated myself for letting my guard down.' drea throws the picture of her and max she was holding at the wall and starts sobbing. "dre i heard smashing, are you okay, babe?" y/n said, walking in, obvi after knocking and not getting a response. "come here dre, give me a hug." drea did as such and it felt really good to let her feelings out, so she did.

'i needed to channel my anger, so that's what i did.'

'peaking in highschool is cringe anyway.'

*beginning of brutal - olivia rodrigo*

i'm so insecure i think
that i'll die before i drink
and i'm so caught up in the news
of who likes me and who hates you
and i'm so tired that i might
quit my job and start a new life
and they'd all be so disappointed
cuz who am i if not exploited?
