My whole body shook as I put one foot in front of the other. Dazed and confused I slumped up my household stairs. Going over the latest events over and over again. I flopped on to my bed. My brain pounded against my skull. So much for my first kiss. Ugh what was I thinking. My emotions ran havick threw my head. But I held a blank face. Just starring up at the ceiling. Then like a wall it hit me.
What about tomorrow?

" oh my gawd it was such a scene. Like it came straight out of a movie" a stick thin red head gossiped, collecting her books from her locker. Her bright red lipstick perfectly matched her hair.
" ugh and I'm sure Shane was crying. As usual " said an Indian girl in a long flowing skirt. Rolling her eyes.
" totally balling. What a woos, can't believe he had the balls to trick Crawford like that." Said red smacking gum between her teeth.
" what are you talking about, I heard she used him poor boy. I mean she is such a shifty character." Accused a girl in a lime green tube top several lockers down. The other girls considered this, but then shook their heads. Reds phone buzzed. She pulled it our of her pocket its cover was layered in faux fur. The latest trend in phone fashion. (Commence eye roll)
" no actually i just got a text saying josh was the one who set it all up scince, he is so head over heels for her."
" and What would Crawford have to gain in this anyway?" Suggjested flowing skirt.
"Uhhhmmm Shane!!" Rebuttaled tube top. But she then reconsidered her words.
" eeeeewww " coed the girls in harmony.
" not like she could do much better." Red snorted.
They all giggled. Bradley and Brittany then came walking threw the halls. Side by side fingers brushing against each other.
" I'm just happy for them, and that brad was their to scoop Brittany up." Smiled Flowing skirt.
" such a cute couple. " sighed red. The bell rang and the girls shuffeled off. I slammed my locker. I just wanted it to go away. I wanted it to stop. But I should have known better to have wanted something. It was selfish of me. I Wondered if the entire school had seen.... What ever had happened last night.
I stepped threw the first period doors. I looked down at my books. Studying the art work on the covers. Wondering wether or not it had been drawn on a computer or by hand. Next thing I now my face hit something hard. I was sent to the ground. Expecting a book case I opened my eyes. What I saw was Shane. Rubbing his head. His face brought back a storm of emotion. He began to cry. I held out my hand reluctantly. He wiped his nose on one hand and offered me the other. Without even looking at him I pulled him up. He sniffeled and snorted. I rubbed my hands off on my cut off jean shorts and sat down next to Cassy. The whole class stared at me as if their was a pig growing out of my for head.
" you all right...buddy?" I said more for just the show of it, in reality he really did deserve it.
Shea went over and begged for a pass for the nurse but instead he was told to go to the men's room and calm down. Mr.Griffen had had enough of Shane's crying for one year and frankly so were the rest of us. The class still stared at me.
" can I help you?" I said to no one in particular. Everyone looked away and began their morning routines and gossip. All but one. Cassy. Her pretty doe eyes blinked at me.
" ya know I really shouldn't be talking to you buuuuttt, I just have to know." She squealed.
" what i " I shrugged not looking up from my notebook in which I was currently doodling.
" Every thing! You know yesterday!" She said expectingly.
I was so over this stupid story. I was wore out and beat up like barbie doll left outside in the rain.
" haven't you all ready heard about it threw other girls."
" yes. But I want to know the truth. What really happened." Said Cassy. I was taken back by her authenticity.
" alright " I bantered. She quickly pulled out her phone. It too was adorned with faux fur. The small red light began to flash. I smirked, this was going to be good. " here's the damn truth. Shane thought if he kissed me it would make his ' true love ' Brittany gelous." I air quoted my fingers. " Brittany's awesome and deservse better. But that's besides the point. Shea came up with this grand scheme. To win her over. So he used me. The plan was to stand by my moped and wait for me. There we would wait till Brittany walked by and josh gave the signal. Then we would make out till Brittany stopped us. Shane told Josh to tell me the plan. But josh 'forgot', just so I would blow up on Shane. But you still can't use someone like that. Their plan was a some what success until the hero in our story brad comes and sweeps Brittany up on the rebound. Not that she ever liked Shane in the first place but I think she liked his attention. Such a cute couple. Are you happy Shane?" I stared directly into the camera and gave a death stare. I turned my back to the camera.I turned back halfway.
" oh and josh I'm coming for you so watch your back."
