Westfield High

Chapter 13- The Rumour and the Hero

***Teddy's POV***

We've been at Westfield High for three months now, and the Lemporem house has gotten really close. 

We have a cooking schedule (which Amethyst is not on ever since she tried to make pasta) and we take turns in cleaning.

Today, being Saturday, we have free time. The girls have gone out into town to go shopping, Austin and Hayden have been avoiding eachother since that fight over Sammy, A.J's painting and I'm sitting in my room, listening to music.

I had my iPod turned up to loud and listening to 17 Crimes by AFI when A.J bursts into the room holding a take-away coffee.

"Teddy! You'll never guess what just happened," his tone worried

"I probably won't, so... what happened?" I ask, proping my pillow up against the bedhead and leaning on it.

"Well, they put two sugars in my coffee instead of one-"

"A.J," I roll my eyes. "You actually have two sugars..."

"Sorry, I'm just...." he inhales slowly. "Okay, so I was waiting for my coffee and two guys in one of the other houses were waiting there too. I heard one of them say Amethyst, so I pretened to check my phone, while I was actually listening. Anyway, the guy went on to say how aparently Amethyst did it with a guy the other night, and now everyone's talking about it. He was saying that the guy paid her $50," A.J exclaims, out of breath.

"W-what? Amethyst would never-" I start, but I can't finish.

Everyone in the house has grown close to Amethyst. We all have this sort of protectiveness towards her. In the past months, a lot of guys have come knocking on the front door, trying to take advantage of her. Amethyst is such a sweet girl, and she's incredibly indepentdent, but being a siren, she attracts boys like light to moths. Sometime's it gets a bit to much to handle. And obviously, this boy want's it easy. I don't know what it is, but I feel close to her, and I don't what some dickhead thinking he can do whatever he wants to her.

"Who was it?" I ask A.J, getting off the bed and grabbing my coat.

"Peter Blackborne from Dolo," A.J replies. "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to go and have a chat with someone," and I walk out of the room.

*Amethyst's POV*

"Hey Slut," a girl from Larvo says to me as she walks past us. I look at her as she walks off with her friend.

"What?" I turn to look at Raven, India and Sammy in complete confusion.

"Jealous bitch," Sammy rolls her eyes and mutters.

"Ignore her," Raven talks my shoulder and walking me down Top Street.

Saturday's at Westfield High are great. We get to do whatever we want, and today the girls and I are shopping in town. We've headed to Top Street, where all the good shops are. 

We walk into a cute botique named 'Tops on Top'.

I stroll over to a beautiful lacy black dress with white rimmed sleeves.

"India! This would look amazing on you," I hand her the dress and point her to the changing rooms.

"Raven!" I give her a bird patterened crop top and a long watermellon pink maxi skirt.

I riffle through the racks of clothes and pick out a white shirt with a studded collar, and a pair of lacey black tights and pink shorts. I hand them to Sammy.

"No. I am not putting those on," she points to the pink shorts.

"It'll look good! I promise," I hold them out.

"No!"

"Sammy!"

"Amethyst!"

"Just do it!" I throw them into her arms and shove her into the changing room.

The first girl to come out was India.

"Ohmygodnessgraciousindiathatlookssoamazingonyouargh!" I run all my words together. But the dress looks gorgous. It hugs her curves, and excentuates her bust. She looks hot!

India blinks, "Really?" She looks in the mirror, turning and posing. "I feel really good in it!" She smiles.

Next out is Sammy.

"I told you it wouldn't look good," she pulls open the curtain and storms over to the mirror.

"Well you need to tuck in the shirt, open up a few buttons, and wear the shorts up on your waist," I say, doing these things as I speak. "There, now look."

She studies herself in the mirror, "I look hot!"

India and I roll our eyes.

Raven still isn't out.

"Raven, are you dressed?"

"Yeah, but I look horrible," she whines through the curtain.

"Just come on out. I bet you look great," India chirps encourgingly.

Raven hesitantly pulls open the curtain.

"Woah."

"Raven!"

"I'd date you," Sammy said, I stomp on her foot.

"Raven you look stunning!" She does. The maxi skirt makes her look taller and the crop top shows off her arms.

"But.. I look sluty!" She says, covering her belly.

"You don't! You look beautiful. Look," Sammy gesture to my own top, a plunging V-Neck. "Amey look like a slut, look at all this clevage!" I stomp on her foot again. Hard. With heels on.

"My dad would never let me wear this," Raven frowns.

"Do you like it?" India asks.

Raven smiles, "definitely!"

***Teddy's POV***

 "What the hell did you say about Amethyst Hella?" I grab the collar of Peter Blackborne's shirt, lifting him off the ground and pushing him against the wall.

"I- I didn't s-say anything," he stutters, trying to shake free.

"Really?" I tighten my grip, pushing him slightly up the wall. "Then how come the whole school is calling her a slut?"

He sighs, before deciding to spill the truth. "Okay. I may of told a few people that I had sex with her. And I used her as the girl because she's got a reputation. People believed me! But I didn't mean for it to spread around. I really didn't and I'm sorry!" 

"I'm not the one you need to be apoligising to."

"Look, I'll clear things up. I promise. But can you put me down?"

I roll my eyes before letting go of his shirt. "If this gets to Amehtyst. I swear," I take a deep breath before walking away. "Forget it."
