"Thank you so much for picking me up." Audrey exaggerates.

Audrey was getting her car fixed so I volunteered to pick her up until she gets her car back. "This is so much better than sitting on the bus."

"Yeah, it's nothing."

I start the engine once again and started driving to the school.

"Mr. O'brien totally has a crush on you." Audrey squeals. I roll my eyes, "He's like 25. He can't like me."

"I'd hop on him if I were you." she laughs. "Audrey, you're disgusting." I joke.

"Ugh, come on. You can't deny he's not hot." she tells me. I nod, "He is hot..."

"Of course he is."

"Look... I have to tell you something. You need to promise me you won't tell anyone."

"I'm all ears." she says, waiting.

"So, you remember when I said I left the club because I didn't feel good?" I ask her.

She nods rapidly. "Yeah..."

"I actually slept with someone," I whisper but she heard. "You what?"

"I know... I know."

"Who was it? Do you remember his name?" she asks. I put my head down, "Yeah..."

"Really? Who?!"

"Mr. O'brien..."

She gasps loudly, stomping her foot up and down. "No wonder why he likes you. Oh my god... What if someone finds out? What if-"

"No one will find out and you better not tell anyone. You're lucky I told you. Biana, Kasey, and Sarah don't know about this."

"Your secret is safe with me." she says. "Why was it Mr. O'brien?"

"I don't know. I got drunk, I don't remember much."

"Hi guys." I greet, sitting down next to my friends on the bench. I pull out my salad and started to eat it.

"Hey Arabella!" Kasey greets, shoving a cheeseburger in her mouth.

I take a bite of my salad as I listened to them talk.

"Ugh, I have to go see Mr.O'Brien for some extra help." Biana says.

"Will someone come with me? It'll be awkward if I'm alone." Biana sighs. Audrey pushes me, "Ara would love to go."

I gave Audrey a look, who shrugs at me. "I'll take your salad." Sarah says, snatching my fork from my hands.

"Fine! I'll go."

Biana grabs her books and we walk back inside. "You owe me some food." I tell her and she nods. "Of course."

"Seriously, thanks for coming." she smiles. "It's not that big of a deal." I laugh.
