*Kate's POV*
"Let's go. We are safe now." Said Chrissy as she opened the door for me.
"Are you sure?" I asked as I got up.
I had spent all day in the kitchen with Luke's mother. After Chrissy went to the dining room with Luke to talk probably about their band, I asked the chef if she needed help.
Let's just say I'm now am EXPERT in cooking meat with veggies.
After like three hours with my very important job I decided to take a short nap, which lasted for another good two hours. I was woken up by the Queen after school day ended (3.45 pm) because it was time to head back home.
"Taylor... Keep the fact that I hid you a secret." She spat.
I understood easily, the Queen wouldn't risk her status for someone like me. I should have that clear already.
Then why did she help me?
"Okay... Goodbye then Costanza." I murmured as I walked to the door.
"Wait." She skipped to me and grabbed my wrist. "I'll take you home... Just in case."
"Of what? You know I can walk home, right?" I asked arching an eyebrow.
"No. And I don't care. You are coming wih me. Period." She started walking towards the school parking lot and practically dragged me with her.
I'll be completely honest, I kinda like how she kinda cares for me. Sometimes I feel like I have a raw conection with Costanza, not only the relation creeper to creeped out... But like friends... Sometimes I feel that when she looks at me there's something in her eyes.
But of course, she is The Queen and any relationship with her must be with someone just as popular or relevant at school... And I have neither of those requirements so it's far from imposible.
Thinking about that detail makes me incredibly sad... Isn't it strange?
"Why is she doing this then?" I asked myself.
"Huh? Did you ask anything?" She asked me.
I took a deep breath and I freely spoke my mind.
"Why do you help me this much? Aren't you supposed to hate me? That's what you show during class at least... Why do you act so differently when we are alone? Why do you want me to go with you?" I asked. But then I realized that I spoke way too much and ended up regretting of having had the ovaries to ask.
"Wow... Aren't you quite a curious thing..." She commented as if it was a huge announcement, which it is not due to the fact that I'm irrelevant as fuck.
I didn't react, so she came to realization that she had to answer.
"Okay so I feel guilty for the way I treat you. Why? Because since you helped me I have seen you differently. You are not the girl with no heart that I could get on her to my own benefit... I saw that you have a heart... And one that is good... I'm sorry. But you know who I am... No one else. That's why I can't be friends with you. The Queen just can't. I'm sorry."
Even though I know it is true, I felt a strong pain in my chest. Stronger than anything. It's feeling someone standing on your chest keeping you from breathing but this time, no one is actually physically over me... Just the Queen over me... Emotionally.
I stopped walking.
"Then be like you are supposed to be... Be the Queen... I'll walk home. I'm sorry." I said before walking the opposite direction.
When I arrived home I fell in realization that tomorrow will be Thursday... And I have the strongest urge ever to go... But I can't.
I must stay away from her.
My phone vibrated.
Nix- GUYS
Jey- What?
Tergel- What?
Kate- What?
Soph- What?
Nix- THERE'S A RUMOR SAYING SOMTHING ABOUT THE QUEEN IN A SCHOOL BAND
Soph- Should I care?
Jey- Chill you two
Tergel- Wow... Major plot twist.
Soph- You are right... We should start messing with her! 😈
Kate- How do you guys know it's even true?
Nix- It's a rumor you idiot. It doesn't HAVE to be real.
Kate- But this joke could be on us...
Jey- Good point... I wouldn't want to get beaten up by her minions again.
Kate- Same
Tergel- So what now?
Soph- Let's study for finals! :D
Soph- yeah right HA!
Nix- I for one believe that what is said it's true... It is pretty logical... Have you EVER seen the Queen leaving school after class on Thursdays? No. Because she has band practice!
Jey- But still... I'm not risking it.
Nix- Fine! But if this turs out to be true... I want EACH of you to build me a fucking temple in my honor.
Kate- We are kinda too lazy for that...
Nix- FUCK YOU KATE.

This group chat is kinda like the best ever hahaha.
Wait. People KNOW about Costanza's secret?!
Fuck.

When I arrived to school the next day I ran to Christina's locker and slipped the new note.
I hope no one notieces me now.

"Taylor! Wait up!" Yelled someone from behind me.
Fear started to build up inside my body.
The Queen saw me.
"What?" I asked softly.
"Have you done your math homework? I forgot to do mine." She said.
"Yes... Why?"
"Give it to me." She demanded.
"No."
She pushed me violently against the lockers. Causing everyone to turn and look at us.
My friends came rushing to the scene. I started shaking. I hope the rest of Christina's gang isn't around to hit me and my friends.
"I won't ask you again. Give. Me. Your. Homework." She spoke softly and very close to my face.
"Okay... It's in my bag." I whispered nefore she let me go.
I fell to the ground.
She violently opened my bag, throwing everything to the floor. This is the most humiliating moment in my life. I hear everyone commenting my stuff in mean ways, I never felt so violated.
Jey jumped towards me and covered me in a soft hug.
"She is such a bitch... I'm sorry Kate." He whispered in my ear.
She found my small notebook. Where I write the notes to her. She opened it just like she did with my other books and stuff.
When she recognized the pages, her face turned white. As if she had seen a ghost.
I knew what happened. She recognized the pages.
She now knows it is me.
She dropped everything and stared at me.
"You are a monster!" Yelled Nix as she stood next to me and Jey.
"I just want what she gave me..." the Queen defended herself, returning to her search.
"Black notebook. Last page." I murmured.
She quickly took my homework and walked away from the center stage.
"I knew Gaby was wrong about you!" Yelled Nix to the Queen.
"Nix... Don't." I pleaded.
"You never deserved her! You are evil! Stay away from Kate you bitch! I won't let you kill her... Like you did with my cousin!" that's it.
I stood up and ran out of school.

*Chrissy's POV*
My eyes started to fill with tears as I went to the school yard. I ran to the small hill where I first talked to Taylor in a nice way... Where she first saw me... And collapsed under the tree.
I let the tears fall freely. What have I done?
Gaby. Why did that no one knew about us?
Was I the reason you did it?
My phone vibrated. It was a text from Jen.
Jen- Where are you?!
Jen- The whole school is talking about you.
Jen- What happened?!
Jen- Why is Taylor always near when you disappear?!
Jen- WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?!
Jen- Was there a note today?
That text hit me. In my pocket I have the newest note. And after today... It'll probably be the last.
Why am I so stupid?!
I took it and started to read.
"Someone else knows about your secret. Are you okay?
~K"
"I am not K... I am not." I answered as I continued to cry.

"There you are!" Yelled Jen in relief.
"We have been looking EVERYWHERE for you." Commented Holly when they reached the top.
"Do you even KNOW what time it is?" Asked Chris.
"I'm sorry." Was the only thing I said.
They picked me up and took me home.
When we arrived my mom look shocked about my arrival. After she welcomed us... My mum quicky muttered.
'And Luke?'
Which I replied in the same way answering simply: 'later'.
But I can't go. Whoever K is warned me that someone knows... So that 'someone' is probably waiting at the music room for proof.
I can't risk any more things.
Today I lost enough.
The thought of Taylor pains me so hard...
I wanted her to trust me.
But I had to be a bitch and publicly humilliated her... For a homework I didn't need.
A/N: HEY! I'm sorry for never updating hahaha I was on a major writer's block and died hahaha.
Have a nice day ;)
