Our Highschool Love

Chapter 9

3rd pov

The next day at school the tension was thick and everyone at school was gossiping about Amaya. Everyone then suddenly hushed eachother up as they stared at Amaya who was passing by.

As Amaya walked past everyone in the halls she accidentally tripped in front of the football team members, which consisted of Tony, Theo, Jack, Oliver, Jaizo, and Ian. "Hey, watch where you're going! You almost got juice all over me!", Oliver said angrily.

"Oh uh, I'm really sorry Oliver.." She apologized nervously. "Yeah, well you better be. This jacket is limited edition , you know !" The boy spat . Amaya quickly dashed off. This day really wasn't going to be good.

She tried making herself seem as small as she possibly could. Amaya curled into herself and walked at a fast pace. What felt like thousands of eyes were on her and she was beginning to panic.

This can't be happening again no no no everything's going wrong and no one likes me anymore because she lied I can't no no no people are staring people are staring people are-

"AMAYA!"

She looked up, surprised. Her vision was slightly clouded because of her tears but she could see two figures in front of her. Wait , since when was she crying ?

"Sorry for startling you Maya, but you weren't hearing us. Are you okay?" Oh, it was just Eve. And.. Salvador ? Maya didn't know Eve hung out with him, why was he there ?

"I'm fi- well, honestly I'm not really fine. Why are you guys.." she gestured to Eve and Salvador "Both here..?"

"Well.." Salvador spoke "We both just wanted to talk with you about .. well, everything that's going on right now. You seem .. I don't know .. like you're not doing the best ?" Amaya gave them a look "You think ? You think I'm not doing 'the best' after having some stupid bitch spread a bunch of fake rumors about me just because she's jealous that I was talking to her precious little boo boo bear, who BY THE WAY ISN'T EVEN DATING HER??"

Eve started to speak "Well, if you put it that way.. whatever ! We just want to help !"

"Sorry.. I'm just.. really tired." Amaya replied. "How do you plan on 'helping' me?" She asked.

"Well, we can try disproving the rumors—" Eve began. Salvador finished for her "—We could go around telling people they're not true, and maybe tell people positive things about you ? Also, do you want a cupcake ? Red velvet, your favorite." He seemingly pulled a cupcake out of nowhere.

"Oh-! Sure, thank you." Amaya took the cupcake and started eating it. It was pretty good. "Of course you guys can do that, that's really nice of you actually." They both smiled "Is that all you wanted to talk about though?"

"Huh?" They both asked in unison.

"Well, by the looks on your faces I can tell that's not everything you wanted to say."

"Uh, so.." Eve began.

"Just spit it out !"

"Would you maybeee want us to help you fix whatever you've got going on with Rolando right now ?"

Amaya was shocked.

"What????"

"We saw your argument." Salvador said.

"Oh.." Amaya replied. She flashbacked to the harsh words she and Rolando exchanged. She remembered everything he said to her. "Well, I'm still mad at him but I do really like him..." She trailed off. "Uh, we have some others trying to ask him about it , too." Eve spoke.

"I.. I guess you could help." as Amaya spoke, Eve and Salvador's faces both brightened. Suddenly they both looked very motivated, which sort of radiated onto Amaya too. Eve spoke..

"LET'S DO THIS THEN!!"

Huh, maybe today wouldn't be so bad after all.
