The Quite one with a Loud mouth

Burden of Secrets

Danielle

Rosy called me saying That Elizabeth posted a photo saying she's unfollowing certain people. I just thought wow stupid go ahead but it's no one else business. Ever since the restraining order I felt like somehow I got into the middle of this. I didn't do anything!!!

Lately in school she seems more dark. In class she would just get up and leave during class time. She start to be mean and annoying to everyone including the tutors. Especially Julianne, who's in our group, because Elizabeth won't do any work anymore and won't listen. But for some stupid reason she would try to talk to me.

She would follow me everywhere and try to hang out with me. I didn't want to be mean so I would talk to her little then go with others. Later people started asking me why I don't talk to Elizabeth. I was embarrassed to tell them why so I just tell them it's between me and her. During lunch we would go to our hang out with john and his girl. Before this hold thing started I guess John got himself a girlfriend. Her name is Lizzy and she's a junior. Not soon after that Elizabeth found out.

Every passing period she would be in front of us and Elizabeth would try to make a move. I told her to stop many times.

"Elizabeth stop that" I said.

"Why!?" she answer.

"You do realize who that is, right?" I asked.

"Yes" she said.

"That's John's girlfriend!" I said hoping it gets to her thick head.

Elizabeth knew yet she still tries to talk to her. Then she told me she's bisexual. I told Rosy and Ashely about it at the lunch table.

"Oh my gosh. Are you serious?" Rosy said.

"I know she's hitting on Lizzy, John's girlfriend." I said.

"Oh." Rosy replied while she was on her phone.

"Oh yah I know." Ashely said.

"You knew!!!" I yelled.

"That she was Bisexual. Yah." she said all calmly.

"How?!" I asked.

"You don't remember. She told us while ago. I think you were busy talking to Rosy." Ashely said laughing.

Once she told me, I think I remember she telling us. But it was bad that she wants to talk to Lizzy. John wouldn't like it. Then, I heard from Bryant and Julianne that Elizabeth wanted to know how to tell a friend that you no longer want to be friends. I wasn't hurt, I was just like wow really. After she cling on me, she's saying this crap. I wanted to talk to her about it but I didn't want her going to the office. I asked Ashely and she thinks I should talk to her if it's bugging me.

"But I don't want her going to the office because of this" I said.

"I don't know what to tell you Danielle. You either tell her or ignore it." she told me.

Ashely had a point about ignoring it but I still didn't want to go to the office.

"Danielle does it bother you?" she asked again.

"No, not really." I said.

"There you go." she said walking to class.

It didn't bother me but I just thought it was stupid of her. During the two classes I had with her I completely ignore her. But the weirdest part in the last period was the dead bird. All of the girls and I walked back to the locker room from PE then at the corner was a dead bird. The small dead bird had dry blood on the stomach and open skull. A bunch of ants were crawling all over it's face. It even look like it was moving because the ants were moving its head. The bird looked like left over road kill with a puppet body you could move. All of us passed by it but not Elizabeth. She walked up to it and picked it up with her hands. She then pet it and cling it like its a baby. Then she put it down somewhere else. After that everyone was disguised of her and called her mean things. Some Ashely would think it's clever but more I was real disguise yet not shock. She told me when we were still friends that she would do that a lot and bury them.

The next day Rosy told us in nutrition that she invited Elizabeth to lunch. I looked at Ashely and we were both WHAT and confused. In study hall, I talked to Bryant about Elizabeth hanging out with us.

"I'm getting so annoyed by her!" Bryant said.

"What's up?" I asked.

"Ever since that stupid restraining order, she's been on me all the f*** time!" Bryant yelled.

"She would always call for me. Starts hugging and won't let go. Just her being around me annoys the hell out of me. Sometimes I feel like getting a restraining order on her."

I didn't know how to reply to that. It's bad enough she actually has one.

"I don't think you should. It'll probably look weird and people would start laughing at her." I replied.

"Why does it matter how it looks Danielle? You really shouldn't worry how others feel about you and what you do. This is about safety, not some reputation or popular Danielle." He said then the bell rang.

I went outside to wait for Ashely then I saw Elizabeth peeking at the classroom and yelled out Bryant's name. Ashely showed up and went up to Bryant to play with his cards. I told her about what Bryant said.

The bell rang and Spanish was over. Ashely and I walked having thoughts in our head about what might happen. I had to go to the bathroom really quick so Ashely waited for me outside. Later we started walking to the cafeteria and there we saw the demon.  Ashely was with Jose and Yuri and Rosy were on there phone. Elizabeth was mostly talking to Rosy and I didn't care.

Ashely and Rosy weren't paying attention to where they were going. I told that Elizabeth was wit us and John is at the hang out. Ashely remember then she told us to wait while she ran to John. Once she got back, she gave us the okay.

The whole time it was awkward and we had small talk. I was hoping Elizabeth won't try something stupid. The bell rang and I told everyone goodbye and walked with Rosy to class. During class Elizabeth came late looking happy like something good happen. She started talking to everyone nice and had a smile on her face. That all change in passing period.

We walked to our last period and Elizabeth said hi to Lizzy but she didn't answer. It looked my like she was ignore Elizabeth the whole walk. Elizabeth kept asking me if she's mad at her or if she doesn't like her. All I kept telling her was I don't know and went with my friend Randi.

After school I went walking with Ashely and she told me about what Elizabeth did with Lizzy. Now I understand why Lizzy acted like that.
