A Hero's Other Half

Nothing but drama

What the gang and Selina didn't know was that a certain someone was standing right behind them.

"What did you just say?" He asked.

Everyone turned around to see him standing right behind her. Selina slowly turned around at the voice. Her eyes widened.

"Troy!" Selina said startled.

"Looks like someone just got busted." Gia said smirking at the others.

"Hey......how's it going?" Selina asked him, trying to stall.

"You DID cheat on me!" Troy shouted.

"What? Why would I do that? Your seriously gonna believe these people over me? Your own girlfriend?" Selina questioned him.

"These people?" Emma asked her.

"These people are my friends. They would never lie to me. But that's something you love to do isn't it?" Troy remarked.

The crowd went "Oooo".

"If I really did go out with someone else, prove it. All evidence must be uncovered for the truth to be told." Selina mentioned.

Emma tapped Gia on the shoulder. She nodded.

"Oh, do you mean something like....... I don't know.......this?" Gia spoke as she held up her phone. It showed Selina in Arizona.

Selina shrugged.

"That looks nothing like me." She protested.

"No? Then, how are you wearing the exact same shirt your wearing now?" Emma pointed out.

Everyone looked at Selina. Selina looked to Troy. He raised an eyebrow.

"It's my favorite shirt." Selina said.

"Troy, I know that looks like me, but I can guarantee-"

"Hey babe." Eric said as he walked up to Selina.

Selina smiled as she and Eric kissed. Troy's eyes were widened like just like everybody else. He let her go.

"Guess what?" Eric said.

"What's up? Because right now is kinda-"

Eric revealed to be holding his lucky wristband. He never took it off ever since he made the team. He was now passing it on to somebody he cares about.

"Really?" Selina asked.

Eric nodded. She smiled.

"Thank you." Selina said.

Eric smiled. He saw a red chain on left wrist.

"Uh...what's that?" He asked.

Selina was confused until she looked down. She quickly glanced at a not-so-happy guy. She shrugged.

"Nothing." Selina said.

Eric nodded.

"Okay, well see you tonight. Can't wait to see your band play at halftime. Don't forget to wear my jersey!" He yelled out as he walked away.

Selina waved good bye and turned to face Troy. He looked crossed between angry and hurt. Selina sighed as she tried to find an excuse.

"That's just my brother." She lied.

"Yeah, cause brothers and sisters just can't wait to do that." Jake commented.

Selina rolled her eyes.

"I bet that wristband is special too." Noah added.

"Stay outta this. Look Troy I-"

"Hey babe. Don't forget to come over this weekend. You have to pick the movie!" Daniel said.

Daniel Rivers, captain of the debate team. The team was undefeated, thanks to the recent change in his life. Selina growled a little. Seriously, he had to come right now?! Everyone had turned around and stared at Selina directly.

"Troy I-"

"Selina why would you do this? First, your gone most of the week you transferred to Harwood without telling me. Then, you have a surprise trip you decide to ditch me on just to play with Eric?! And your homework was really an excuse to see Daniel before the debate!" Troy yelled.

Some people glanced at each other.

"Hey, I did have homework that night!" Selina shouted.

"Really? Because I called your house, and your mom said you weren't there!" Troy retorted.

"But-"

"And you know what, I almost didn't believe a word that came out of Gia's mouth because that's how much I trusted you! I thought it was just some rumor that was spreading around!" Troy shouted.

Selina stayed silent as he continued.

"And the only thing I don't get is why you would do this?! You didn't even care about anything that I said!" He remarked loudly.

"That's not true!" Selina screamed.

"Then, what did I say to you yesterday?" Troy asked.

Selina thought.

"That...you...um..." She trailed off.

Troy waited.

"Um...I don't know. That you wanted to go to the movies or something?" Selina guessed.

"See? You can't even remember that." Troy said.

"Troy I'm sorry okay!" Selina shouted.

"Now your sorry?! You weren't sorry when you did it to other people! You weren't sorry when you went to Arizona and weren't sorry when you lied to me!" Troy yelled.

The whole entire hallway grew silent. Everybody was wondering what would happen next. Some people had their phones out, recording everything.

"I don't get it. What do they have that I don't have?!" Troy asked.

Selina was still quiet. It wasn't because of what he doesn't have. In fact, she didn't hate him at all. It's just, she didn't really see him as her type.

"Look I just-"

"Just what?" Troy asked her.

Selina sighed. She didn't know what to say to him. Besides, everybody staring at her didn't help.

"I'm just sorry." She said.

Troy looked to the floor for a second. Was he upset? You bet! But, he knew lashing out even more wouldn't make him feel better. That never usually works. Besides, he has a good chunk of his life to deal with already. However he did feel pain, betrayal, and anger.

"I'm sorry too. We're done." Troy declared.

Luckily, the bell rang. It was time for lunch. The students put away their phones and dispersed. It was time for grilled burgers! The rangers were still standing in the halls. Selina shoved her way past Gia for ratting her out. Silence took over for a couple minutes when Jake said,

"Wow. That was...uh...something. So, how about we head out for lunch?"

The others looked at him.

"Yeah, I guess I could go for some food." Noah agreed.

"You guys coming?" Jake asked.

"Sure." Emma replied.

"Troy, are you coming?" She asked.

Troy shook his head. He walked to the nearest exit and busted the door open. It was so loud it made some students jump. The others were just stunned. How could Selina embarrass Troy like that in front of half the school?

"Hey, do you guys wanna go to the park instead?" Gia suggested.

"Why?" Noah wondered.

"Yeah, why? Come on, burgers in the cafe. The food is actually edible too. Nice and smokey." Jake added while licking his lips.

The girls sighed.

"We can get burgers later." Emma said.

"Your right. Let's go! And then stop for burgers." Jake replied.

The rangers rolled their eyes. They all headed out to make sure their friend was okay.
