'33- Backstabber'

"Hey bitch!" Alva jumps to hug me in the school corridor.

"Rude much." I roll my eyes.

"Hey, you know it's my love language." He teases me.

"You're my favourite." I nudge him a little and he laughs in embarrassment.

We both see Pearl walk towards us and me and Alvaro both move to hug her, but putting our arms down when we see a new girl.

"Oh hey guys! This is Amara." Pearl introduces the girl.

"Hey!" The girl waves at Alvaro, then gives me a bitter look.

"Hi, lovely to meet you." He smiles at her.

"Yeah great to meet you." I try to act instartled but she just ignores my greeting. Odd much.

"Can are we going to your house tonight?" Pearl asks.

"Which one of you is Cam?" Amara asks.

"Uh, I am." I try to sound basic, but you can hear the weirdness in my voice.

"It sounds like a boys name, what's it short for?" She speaks with her oddly irritating squeaky voice.

"It's short for Camilla." I state.

"Basic." She mutters so only I could hear. "So I'm coming your house."

"Uhh-"

"Yeah Amara you should definitely come!" Pearl replies back to her.

Alvaro notices tension in the air and clears his throat in defence to try stop the attack, which he did not help with at all.

"I will, please send me the address." She leaves us to go with her dad's car, expensive kids.

I know I am an expensive child, but I was never braggy about it at school, like who brings gucci sunglasses to a public school?

"Are you out of your mind Pearl!" I whisper-shout. "She can't come to my house, she's gonna say all the shit about having so many footballers around, plus she's extremely rude."

"Don't be judgy Cam! I'm sure shes a lovely person." Pearl tries to shake off my anxiety.

"Okay I guess." I shake it off then went to go find Lamine, since he wanted to pick me up after training.

I walk a little bit because he can't be seen outside of my school, as a risk of getting recognised.

I found his car and I walk faster to it, ignoring anyone that looks my way.

I open the door and sit on the seat aggressively, while also putting on my seatbelt in a hurry.

"How was your day beautiful."

"Just go." I mumble, feeling my anger and disappointment rise.

Lamine follows my instructions and moves with the car, without speaking any words.

I let out a harsh sigh, with thoughts going all over my head because I don't know what to do now.

"Wanna speak up now?" Lamine says softly.

"Yeah, sorry." I clear my throat. "Pearl's friends with his girl, Amara, and she seems so horrible to me and noones getting the point."

"Have you tried to talk to Pearl?" Lamine questions.

"Yeah I did, but when I'd say anything, she'd just dismiss it." I huff.

"Well it's not like you're gonna see her after school, so just bare with in school for a while until Pearl notices."
