CHAPTER 17: 𓆩♡𓆪

Note: good luck, babe!

I'm in a good mood throughout the school day.

All my classes go well, no one bothers me, and I don't feel like fainting.

Everything is going really well. A little too well.

I sigh as I click my pen and jot down notes for my 3rd period today.

~~

I'm walking to my next class during passing period before I get pulled into the girls bathroom. I squeak in surprise.

"Oh my God, Lizzie!" I huff, leaning against the sink and fixing her a hard stare.

She swallows, running a hand through her hair. "Listen, I'm sorry. For what I said about you being a little bitch."

I stay silent.

"And I had a.. well," She stutters, rubbing the back of her neck. "I had an.. idea. I had an idea of what we could do. Related to what happened at the party." Her blue eyes meet mine and I can tell she's nervous.

I sigh. "Just say it, Lizzie."

"You have to promise me that you won't freak out or something."

"I promise."

"Pinky promise, Katie." She holds out her pinky. I reluctantly lock mine with hers.

"Now are you going to tell me or what?"

"Yes, so, I was thinking.."

My stomach churns from how much anxiety I feel right now. What is she thinking? I start to feel light-headed.

"We could hook up every now and then."

My eyes go as wide as saucers.

Hook up? With Lizzie? With a girl?

This is all insane. And wrong. Very, very wrong.

Rumors will spread around about me. About us. They'll call us names - we'll get jumped. Our friends will give us weird looks and distance themselves from us. Hugh will eventually find out and he will hate my guts.

But when was the last time he made me feel good? No, more than that?

Not in a long while, if I'm being honest.

Lizzie made me feel good and she only used her leg to get me off. Imagine the possibilities in bed, with no clothes, no barriers-

"I know a million thoughts are swimming in your head right now. And I know it sounds crazy and quite frankly, fucked up. But I just want you to think about it." She states frantically.

"I..." I have no words.

"Please think about it." She pleads softly.

I swallow thickly.

"Okay. I'll think about it." I finally manage to say.

She smiles at me, nods, nods again but this time looking at the floor, and then she leaves.

I head to my next class while thinking about her and how if she were a boy, all of this would be much easier.

~~

I'm watching Miss Congeniality with Hugh after school. I eat a small handful of popcorn and cuddle up against his side on the couch. The snacks he bought are good, but I don't feel like eating any of them.

"I talked to Lizzie at school today." I murmur, breathing in the scent of him.

"Really?"

"Mhm."

He tries to be nonchalant and not show how he feels, but I can tell that he's anything but. He shifts around a little bit.

"She say anything bad to you?" Hugh asks. I shake my head.

"You can tell me anything, Katie baby."

"She just said hello. I said hi back. We only passed eachother in the halls, nothing really happened.." The lie slips out of my mouth so easily that even I'm surprised.

Hugh nods, pressing a kiss atop my head and rubs my thigh.

We make out a couple minutes later, have sex on the couch, and I fall asleep on him afterwards.

Lizzie can eat my ass. I'll never hook up with her, not in a million years. I have everything I can ever need with Hugh.
