Waking up after that dumpster fire of a party was so headache inducing. Knowing I had to go back to school after that was serious torture. I check my phone and see how much my phone was blowing up.
Getting anonymous messages calling me a variety of names. What the fuck was going on. Oh here I'm being called a whore and slut, how original! What did I do to have this treatment? As if yesterday wasn't enough.
I open Diana's text messages.
Diana
D: Leane! What the heck happened at the party?
D: Wake up!!!
D: this is an EMERGENCY!!
E: DIANA WHAT HAPPENED
D: YOU GOT JILLIANS PLAGUE
E: NO WAY
For those of you who don't know, the Jillian plague is the occurrence in which Jillian has a bad interaction with a person and starts spreading rumors, like a plague. Just something Diana and I came up with.
Continued text:
E: WHAT ARE THEY SAYING
D: okay so the rumor starts with how you were talking to Kyle, your ex, and what Jillian is claiming is that she found out that you were cheating on Hamzah and she was going to tell Hamzah and then you punched her..
E: wow okay so um need to address this quickly with Hamzah.. okay thank you for this
Hamzah
H: What is everyone talking about right now?
H: are what they saying true?
E: NO
E: please don't believe them Hamzah
H: well Trey said it was possible?
H: he said you and Kyle still talk
E: it is NOT at all true please listen to me don't listen to Trey.
H: I don't know Evan this is getting way more complicated then it should be.
H: I think Jillian got the message, we can stop this if you want to
E: Are you seriously mad about this?
E: I mean first of all it isn't true and second of all we're not really together?
H: yeah you're right we're not so let's stop this for now okay?
E: fine
Evangeline's POV
My head is running with anger, frustration, and hurt. Last night we kissed, many times too before, he just can't make up his mind and that messes with my brain. Does he like me, does he hate me, does he care?
How could Hamzah not believe me and how could he just throw away everything we worked for. I so am gonna kill Trey. I thought this could be something real for some time. But I don't know now... maybe it's for the best.. did Jillian get the message?
I go downstairs and see Trey the cause of all my problems right now. "Ugh Trey what did you tell Hamzah? He doesn't believe anything I say." I exclaim. "Woah woah woah good morning to you too." He says with a look that he makes when he actually thinks he's being funny.
He turns back to pouring his cereal and continues as if I never even opened my mouth. "Come on Trey tell me!" I say impatiently. "Okay okay." He says as he turns his back to the counter to face me.
