Alana's POV:

I walked into school more happy that day. Me and Jayda had gotten so much more popular since spreading that rumor. We were the most popular girls, or people in general in that school. Our classes went by so fast that day. Even though everything was going well for us that day, Jayda looked sad and even a bit stressed. I brushed it off. "It's probably just her new popularity." I thought to myself. Soon enough, it was time for lunch, and the halls were crowded with people heading to the cafeteria.

Savannah's POV:

I walked into the cafeteria. The same one that the fight with Alana happened a few days ago. I felt absolutely terrible. Not just because I had been betrayed by someone I trusted, but the fact that it was true. But, I knew I had work to do. I was not going to let her walk over me like that. So, I did what I had to do. I began to walk over to the lunch table where Alana and Jayda were sitting. I felt myself begin to tense up, but I didn't let that stop me. I thought about what to say for just a second, before eventually getting it out.

Alana's POV:

I heard a quiet voice to my side. "Why?" it asked. It belonged to Savannah. "Why would you do that? I don't know if you're smart enough to realize, but it's rude to out somebody." She looked upset, but not angry like the first time this happened. "Oh..." I muttered. I didn't know she was actually gay, I just made a rumor up. 'You're gay?" I spoke, quieter than I intended. "I'm bi." She said, confidence starting to return to her tone. "Oh," I said. I didn't know what to say. I guess I looked upset or something, because she said, "So? So what if I'm bi? What's wrong with it, Alana?" She smirked at me. I saw Scott approach behind her. "Yeah, and so what if I'm gay, what's wrong with it?" The girls sitting at my table began to turn and say, "Yeah, what's wrong with it?" I looked to Jayda, my first friend, the one I trusted with my life, to defend me. And what did she say? "Yeah Alana, what's wrong with it?"

Jayda's POV:

After saying those words, I felt as if the whole cafeteria turned to me. I saw Savannah smile at me, and I also felt as if a weight was lifted off my shoulders. "I can't believe you, Jayda." I heard Alana say right before she ran out of the room. This time, I didn't follow after. "Do you think she'll be okay?" Savannah asked, starting to worry a bit. "Yeah, she'll be fine."
