Mormon Girl

ch. 12

Braxton's POV

When I told the twins, I knew that respect for Kylee would plummet, but I never anticipated that it would go this far. I mean, getting rocks thrown at you? No one deserves that.

Especially Kylee.

I didn't think that she was serious when she said that she wasn't going tutor me anymore. I thought that she was just trying to teach me a lesson, trying to make a better person. That's what she does. I waited a good 15 minutes before realizing that she was dead serious.

And now I feel like the worst person in the whole world.

Kylee wasn't answering any of my calls, texts, voicemails, nothing. If I knew where she lived, I would drive to her house to apologize.

But instead I drove home.

Tomorrow, I thought. Tomorrow I'll make this all better. 

Tomorrow I'll apologize in front of the entire school. Kylee will forgive me and come and tutor me, she'll come and continue to be my friend and anchor. It'll be like this whole thing never happened.

Except Kylee didn't come to school the next day.

Or the next.

Or the next.

At first, I figured she was sick, or went on a vacation to get away from school. I couldn't blame her, in her absence countless rumors had circulated throughout the school, each one more vicious than the last.

I started to worry when she didn't show up to school after two weeks.

Calling her did no good, it went straight to voicemail without ringing. Her home phone wouldn't let me leave a message, it kept saying that the voice message inbox was full.

Always full.

If Kylee was trying to avoid me to teach me a lesson, she was doing a real good job at it. Although my popularity had gone through the roof, my self-respect was at an all time low and my grades were slipping. Kylee would be so disappointed in me.

I was disappointed in myself, to be honest.

It was around this time when I saw a girl that looked vaguely familiar. Blonde hair, wore dresses... I think I saw her hang with Kylee sometimes.

I walked up to her. "Hey, you're Kylee's friend, right?" I asked, grabbing her attention.

She turned and when she saw my face, her eyes widened. She wasn't wearing any makeup and her hair was a mess. Her eyes were red, it looked like she had been crying. "Get away," she said quietly, but forcefully. She started to walk away.

"Wait!" I grabbed her arm. "Listen, I just want to know where Kylee is. She hasn't been at school in weeks."

She just stared at me. "You don't know, do you," she asked softly.

"Know what?"

She shook her head. "Of course you wouldn't know. Of course they wouldn't tell you. You're Braxton Shaw." She yanked her arm out of my grasp and quickly walked away.

What is going on?
