The Life of a High School Girl

Ch.3) You can hurt me, I can't?

It was Wednesday morning. I woke up with a knot in my stomach remembering yesterday's incident. I always felt that Izzie and Taylor were the reason for why I went to school and so now I didn't even want to think about them. But as I woke up my eyes had instantly striked my cork board. That board had photos of me and Izzie from childhood. My eyes began to tear up and I sank my face back into my pillow. 

What a terrible morning it was, it was pouring outside with lightning as the accessory; it was as if god understood my problem and began crying himself. My room that is normally meant to be lit up with joy and sunshine instead was filled with depression and dullness.

My stomach churned every time I thought about what had I even done to Taylor, why had she begun hating me and stealing my best friend away from me? Then I remembered that she couldn't stand not being the center of attention, it was so her. I still got ready, I didn't want to give Taylor a thought that I was going to back out and shut up about this. I got out of my room after getting ready.

My mother was already up as usual. She wakes up at 6 every morning. She saw the look on my face and gave a whats-wrong-now look. I shurrged and she just tightly hugged me. When I hugged her I didn't feel like letting go of her because my mother always made me feel safe. She asked if anything was wrong and if she could help. I told her I was just tired. But she's a mother and she knew that something was up. A concerned look grew onto her face.

 I headed for the hill expecting to meet Izzie. I was angry at Izzieie so on the way I kept thinking to myself, if Izzie doesn't come today i'm going to literally kill Taylor. Because I know only Taylor could do such things.

But Izzie was there alright. But she didn't wave or even make any eye contact with me. I went up to her and asked "Izzie, are you like depressed or something and where’s your best friend Taylor?" I asked with a sarcastic face.

Izzie just gave me what I call is a fake smile and linked arms with me. She then began telling me something I wasn't expecting to find out. She told me

"First, you are my best friend in the whole wide world. Second last night I was at Taylors and she wouldn't stop talking about you she would keep talking about all the negative things about you. And then I noticed...she wanted me to hate you as well, because she said I couldn't be her friend unless I hated you too. And so I barged out of her house." She said really suprisingly

I honestly never thought that Isabella could talk like a mature person. I was happy to know that she realised what Taylor was doing. And I also was willing to let go that she realized later and took her side yesterday. She made a mistake but atleast realized and that’s what I think is important.

So I asked her what happened and she told me that apparently the guy Taylor likes, likes me and I told him I liked him as well. And that he asked me out and I said yes and told him to not tell anyone. I simply said, wait I didn't say I screamed 

"WHAT THE HELL?! I DON'T BELIEVE IN HAVING BOYFRIENDS. OH MY GOD. THEY'RE A BLOODY WASTE OF TIME AND YOU KNOW THAT." I lost my control, completely with my face growing hot with anger.

I shoved past Izzie and ran. I didn't know where I was going until I passed Starbucks, expecting to be alone. Little did I know my enemy awaits.

I saw her through the window, and Taylor just had to be there? And I took out my phone and decided I was going to have a 'comforting' conversation with Taylor with a recorder. We spoke and she spilled her beans. I pretended as if I were to be the innocent one, which I really was so I didn't have to pretend anything. When we reached a silence I got up and headed for the counter.

Afterwards I got my regular Frappe and reached just in time for 2nd period, Geography. I was having a satisfying lesson because I had proof for my innocence and I knew I had nothing to worry about. I had a feeling Taylor would stay at Starbuck and so she did. It got me wondering what she was even doing there in the first place. Probably she couldn't be around me because I hurt her and she was depressed and wanted to be alone and wanted to have some space. Oh yeah, and she isn't in hollywood because?

Once again, the same old Tutor-time with Abbie. She wanted to hang out with me at snack and lunch again. I said alright but only if Izzie could join us and she said that was fine. And so I told Abbie about the take-down I was going to do just for Taylor.

I made her listen to the recording, she was really suprised because Taylor wouldn't come off as the bitchy type at first. Since Abbie was popular she collected her whole gang and told them to help me. I actually didn't know why she was helping me. But I decided to shrug it off.

The plan was made by Abbie; she was good at this because popular people have a lot of drama. So at snack we sneaked into the announcement room and we turned on the announcer and began to play the recording....everyone heard the conversation. We ran for our lives after we heard teacher’s footsteps. But when I went to check if we didn't leave any tracks I noticed that it wasn't the teacher’s footsteps.....it was someone elses...
