A couple weeks had gone by and school didn't get any easier. Not to mention Gwen's part time job at a cafe meaning she had even less time to have to herself. AND she had church on Sundays and Wednesdays so she never had time.

"God G, I miss you like hell! You need to take a day off work or something and come smoke with me!" Storey draped herself over Gwens left shoulder as they walked to class. Storey had smoked since Gwen met her in 7th grade. It never turned into a problem with bigger drugs but Gwen worried about her new dealer because of the scenario on the first day of school.

"You need to go back to your old dealer or something. I really don't trust this new one."

"Yeeeahh but his prices are getting pretty damn high and I don't make enough money for that shit."

"Well I'll find some time to hang out I promise just give me a little while," Gwen smiled at Storey and walked into her last class for the day.

"You're late Ms Harley." Gwen's teacher glared at her from her desk.

"C'mon Mrs. Stacy, this is the first time I've been late to your class in the school year!"

"You're still late. You're a senior now. Manage your time correctly next time and you wouldn't be getting detention."

Gwen looked at Gale who was sitting in the back and mouthed something to him.

Kill me now.

She sat in the back next to him and waited until class was over to finally be able to leave.

"Hey, you wanna skip church and hang at mine tonight?" Storey came over to Gwens locker and leaned on the one next to her.

"I'll check with my mom and see if she'd let me but don't get your hopes up." She nodded and chewed on her nails before a guy came up to her.

"Move it dopehead, you're on my locker."

She rolled her eyes at him and moved out of the way.

"I'll see you later, text me if you can come over, okay?"

Gwen nodded and finished putting her things away before walking down the hall to the library where detention was.

She walked into the room and saw a familiar face.

"Lee? What are you doing here?"

"Nothing. None of your business." Gwen sighed and threw her bag onto the table in front of her.

"Okay girls. You're both going to be cleaning i'm here today. That means sorting books, vacuuming, dusting, whatever there is to be done, do it." The librarian said and soon after left the room. Gwen got onto the vacuuming while Lee sorted books out.

"Why are you here?" Lee asked.

"None of your business." Gwen mocked.

"Oh yeah, I was.. late to class." Gwen could tell there was more to the story.

"Yeah, what were you doing?"

"I told you! I was just late to class!"

"Unless you were fucking someone in the bathroom," Gwen teased, knowing she was far off but Lee stayed quiet.

"Wait." Gwen walked over to the girl and looked at her face to see that she had turned completely red.

"I- I didn't do that! That's such a horrible thing to do! I was just late to class!" She screamed out.

"You we're having sex in the bathroom!! Oh my god! You! The perfect little church girl! You were in the bathroom having sex with a girl!"

"It wasn't a girl!" She said, clapping her hands over her mouth.

"YOU DID!! YOU JUST ADMITTED TO IT!! YOU DIRTY SLUT!" Gwen yelled through a laugh. She had no place calling her a slut. She had her fair share of lesbian sex but it was still astonishing to her that Annalee Williams was in detention for having sex at school.

Gwen threw her head back laughing as Lee yelled for her to stop.

"GOSH GWEN STOP IT! YOURE MORE OF A SLUT THAN ILL EVER BE AND YOU KNOW IT!" The girl furrowed her brows and crossed her arms across her chest.

"I didn't get caught I just got in trouble for being late!" Lee was burning with embarrassment and anger. Gwen just had that affect on her. She could feel her anger rising in her stomach and she knew she was about to burst.

"You're the one that was having sex in the school bathroom!"

Pop

"YOU NEED TO MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS GWEN. IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU YET YOUR OBSESSED WITH THE FACT THAT I DID SOMETHING LIKE THAT EVEN WHEN IT WASN'T ACTUALLY SEX! YOU'RE SO NOSY AND ANNOYING TO EVERYONE YOU MEET I WISH YOU WOULD JUST SHUT UP AND LET IT BE QUIET FOR TWO MINUTES. YOU'RE JUST A LOUD DYKE."

Gwen stood and stared at her for a second before knocking a pile of books over that Lee had sorted and walking out of the room. She walked down the hallway in a fit of rage.

"Ms. Harley, where are you headed to?"

"I'm going home." She said, stabilizing her bag on her right shoulder.

"There aren't any rides out there- Gwen! Gwendolyn Harley get back here now!" Gwen continued to storm through the hallway and out the front door to her car. She didn't care how much trouble she'd be in for that. She needed to get away from that preppy asshole. She understood why Lee was mad, she was being kind of nosy but people always have a way of taking it too far.

"Fuck! Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck!" She hit her steering wheel and drove out of the parking lot. She sped down the main road and didn't slow down unless she saw a red light.

Lee's words were small but they fucking hurt. Gwen had to live with the fact that her parents would never support or love her the way she needed them to and when she first came out she had to live with her best friend in the whole world not loving her anymore.

Angry tears streamed down her face as she raced to the beach. She pulled into the parking spot and crawled into the backseat so she could lay down. This was embarrassing. Imagine crying because a homophobe called you a dyke. But it wasn't just that. She called her annoying and loud too. She had been called that since before she came out but the worst part was that Lee used to defend her when people called her that and now she's the person saying it.

It stung.

Gwen never wanted to be friends with Lee again so she didn't know why her words were affecting her so much. They never did with anyone else. People said that to her so much but she was usually calm about it.

She lied down in the backseat and curled into a ball.
