Chapter 11: Sorry Spencer

"I better get going. It was nice talking to you again, Spencer!" Sabrina said.

"It was nice talking to you too! Will you be back to school on Monday?" Spencer asked.

"Yes. I'll see you then!"

The two friends said their farewells as Sabrina headed towards her house.

For the rest of the day and the day after that, Sabrina continued her chores. She washed the dishes, dusted the cabinets, polished the floor, swept the floor, cleaned the bathrooms, cleaned the screen of the TV she couldn't watch, took out the trash, and cleaned her parents' room along with hers. By the time Thursday arrived (the day she returned to school), the house was spotless.

Sabrina walked the halls of her school with her head down. She could hear the students around her whisper about how she, Brock, and Ally got suspended.

"Step away from Sabrina! You don't want to see her angry side!" one student whispered.

"You don't have to tell me twice! I heard she made Ally's nose bleed!" another student replied.

Sabrina felt ashamed and embarrassed. She hated the gossip that was going around about her. She wished that she could go back in time and erase what had happened. To make matters worse, it seemed as if fighting with Ally just pushed Brock to like Ally more than he's ever had. Sabrina spotted Brock and Ally walking towards her while holding hands and laughing.

"Awwwe! Do you want some peanut butter with that jelly?" Ally asked.

"I'm not jealous!" Sabrina replied.

Ally rolled her eyes. "You're a really bad liar, Sabrina," Ally said.

Ally and Brock began to laugh. Sabrina remembered how she and Brock laughed together when Brock shouted how beautiful she looked on their date. It hurt to look back at that memory. Now, it was Brock and Ally laughing together, and Sabrina couldn't stand watching them. She quickly came up with a plan to stop them from laughing.

"I'm not lying! I'm not jealous because... I'm dating someone!" Sabrina responded without thinking.

"Who's the unlucky guy?" Ally asked.

"Uh...Spencer, and he really enjoys being my boyfriend by the way. He moved back into my neighborhood. He asked me out, so we're officially a couple. If you don't believe me, ask him when he starts school on Monday!"

At that, Sabrina walked in the gap between Brock and Ally, making sure to bump both of their shoulders.

"What did I just say?" Sabrina asked herself as she walked into Mr. Chapman's classroom. "Sorry, Spencer!"
