"Is this okay?"

"Yes, it's okay now hurry and take the picture," Sabina says, her voice hushed and scared.

"Almost got it. Just deciding which angle suits him the best," I say rotating my phone to a landscape angle and zooming on my ex-boyfriend who is lying butt naked on his bed with Pippa, the whore of the school and the girl my darling boyfriend cheated on me with. 

Yes cheated. The audacity some people have is mind boggling. 

He thinks I would let him go, forgive him, and then we'll pay besties at the playground? Hell nah. No one hurts me and then gets away with it. I told Sabina why people his status aren't my crowd now I got another reason to put on my list that why a rich son of a bitch should stay a hell of a lot away from me. 

"Come on, Lily we can't start the first day of our senior year with a detention. Just get the picture of his butt," 

"Keep your hair on. I got it. We'll edit the words 'Hungry dogs are never loyal' on his butt in the class," I put my phone back down and turned to face my best friend who was standing by the bedroom door anxiously.

"Great. I can't believe I saw your ex's butt in the morning," 

She stands straighter when I go to her. "Don't worry I called Jackson beforehand to make your day," 

Her eyes widen, "But wasn't he supposed to join a week later? What happened?"

I nod smugly. "You happened. He didn't want to waste another day without seeing you. The break was too much but it knocked some sense into him,"

Sabina adjusts the strap of her bag like she does when she's nervous about something. Her blonde hair is tied in a ponytail, green eyes that are sparkling with excitement to see the only boy she ever liked in this school. Jackson Montogomery, the hottest nerd this school has. "How do you know all of this?"

I pick my bag from the floor, my nose crinkling at the sight of Andrew's underpants and Pippa's bra. This guy sucks. "I heard it from Kevin. He shares Math with Jackson,"

"Oh," she says absentmindedly. Already daydreaming about her lover. 

"C'mon. Let's go. We got what we wanted,"

We turned to leave Andrew's room but at the last second something stopped me. I hesitated but I needed one more look at my ex-boyfriend. The guy I thought really liked me. I look at him over my shoulder, my eyes gaining moisture the more I see him and Pippa together. If I wasn't blinded by avenging my self-respect, I definitely would've cried but he doesn't deserve my tears.

Sabina senses me and quickly reaches out to hold my hand squeezing it to remind me that it's done and there's nothing I can do to fix my broken heart except staying away from the likes of him.

I gave her a reassuring smile, crossed the threshold of the room, and closed the door. It's currently six in the morning. There's an assembly that'll start at seven thirty then our classes start at eight which means people are about to wake up. We have to hurry and get out of here. The only reason I called Sabina so early to the campus was because of Andrew. Now that I got what I wanted, we need to leave before I get her in trouble for helping me. 

We took the back exit and followed the same hallway like we did when we entered and crawled down the fence. The Hawthorne High campus is so big, it's almost hard to spot anyone breaking in the facilities. Not that we're breaking in but considering we're at the boy's dorm, I say the security sucks and we got lucked out. 

Once we made it outside without getting noticed, Sabina and I went to the library to edit the photos we clicked and then printed them out before we stuck them to every school wall. Since this isn't my first rodeo to get back at someone for playing with me, I know how and when to avoid campus security and cameras.
