THE NEXT DAY.

Justin has been avoiding me.

He ignored me during History and AP Biology. He's just been acting strange since Cody and I started talking.

I tried asking Dean or Marcus if they've seen him but they both said no. This led to me asking Tiffany and Meg and guess what...they hadn't seen him too.

I grabbed my bag from my locker since it was the end of the day and headed down to Cody's locker. Maybe he's seen Justin.

"Hey Cody," I say leaning against the locker next to his.

"Hey Bailey." He says shutting his locker door.

"Uh have you seen Justin anywhere? He's been avoiding me and my calls."

Cody look confused for a moment. He bit his lip and then shook his head. "Yeah, I actually saw him head into the janitors closet with a chick."

"Oh." I frown. Justin's meant to be my ride home he can't just bail me for some chick. "What does she look like?"

"Blonde hair, tall. I think her name was Jessica."

My eyes widen and I grab Cody by the arm rushing to the nearest janitors room to our locker. Jessica Stills is the bitchiest girl I know in my school. Also the sluttiest. There's no guy in the school except Cody she hasn't slept with.

Once upon a time she was so close to becoming my step sister. My parents were fighting and my mother found comfort from her father. But my parents worked it out and they're friends with The Stills. They even think I'm friends with Jessica, fuck no am I being friends with her. Over my dead body.

My sneakers made a loud screeching noise as Cody and I made a stop in front of a janitors closet. I doubt Justin would be in there with of all people Jessica. He knows how much I hate her.

I glanced at Cody and he gave me a reassuring smile before he twisted the door knob open.

I froze letting go of Cody's arm.

Pinch me.

Jessica and Justin were there before me kissing passionately being almost half naked. I felt a sting of tears welling up in my eyes. He knows how much I hate her. He knows how she bullied me. They kept kissing oblivious to our presence. Her dirty hands roaming his shirtless body.

I felt Cody's gave over my hurt face, he coughed really loudly causing the lovers to pull apart.

"Shit." Justin gasped letting go of Jessica and picking up his shirt.

I stared at them as they picked their clothes from the floor. Jessica hurriedly putting her shirt on. Who knows how far they would've gone if we didn't interrupt them.

"Bailey...lets go." Cody whispered into my ear, intertwining his finger with mine.

I nodded shooting a glare at Justin before walking out the Janitors room with Cody.

"Wait Bailey!" Justin called running out of the room. He grabbed my shoulder causing me to spin around.

"What?" I snap looking up at him.

"I-I'm driving you home."

"No you're not, " I groan trying to keep my tears in. "Drive Jessica home. Cody can drive me."

"Yeah drive me home, you don't want to be seen with Bailey. She's a bitch." I hear Jessica's sickly barbie voice call from behind Justin. I look over Justin's shoulder to see her standing in just a shirt and underpants. Slut.

I laugh. You know one of those laughs when you don't have enough energy of give two fucks so you just have to laugh. Yeah I laughed. "Yeah Justin, you don't want to be seen with me and I'm a bitch." I say mimicking Jessica's words.

Justin growls and turns to Jessica. "Shut up Jess and don't talk about Bailey like that."

"Justin just leave her alone, I'll drive her home. You go play with your girlfriend." Cody speaks for one of the first times.

I squeeze his hand smiling at him.

"Shut up Cody, this is all your fault." Justin roars pushing Cody to the ground. He lands with a loud thud and a groans in pain.

"CODY!" I scream rushing to kneel behind him. "Shit."

"I'm fine, seriously Bailey. I'm fine." He groan holding his back. I grab his hand and put in round my shoulder as I help him stand up.

"Cody...your pod." I say staring down at his back which was now streaming blood down my fingers that held his waist.

"I-I'm sorry." Justin whispers noticing the blood.

"Go away Justin." I glare at him while holding onto Cody. "Just go, take Jessica with you. You've done enough."

He nods sadly, walking away with Jessica. I mentally laugh at how dumb she is...she forgot her shorts. But I guess with her lifestyle she's used to wearing less.

"Cody I have to get you to the hospital..."

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

I lay in bed with Cody. We both haven't talked since we went to the hospital. The doctors checked him out and said he was okay but he needed to change his insulin pod because the fall damaged the other one.

I can't believe Justin would do that to Cody of all people. I don't know what his problem is but until he sorts his shit out he can't talk to me.

"Is Justin a player?" Cody spoke up for the first time since the incident.

I sighed turning on my side. I locked gaze's with Cody's mysterious grey eyes and nodded.

Justin is a player. As much as I don't want to admit it. He's just like Jessica. He's had sex with pretty much every girl in our school. People do wonder why he hasn't gotten in my pants yet. I know Justin's habits and as much as he tries to keep them away they'll always try to ruin our friendship. One day it'll come back to bite him in the ass.

"Oh." Is all he replies.

"There was this one time when I was hanging out in his room and I found a girl's bra in there. I was so disgusted." I chuckle.

Cody laughs too. "He hasn't changed, has he?"

"Nope." I say popping the 'p'.

"Is Max sleeping?"

"Yeah." I replied. "I'm tired too and my parents are coming back tomorrow. Do you want to sleep here?"

His eyes lit up and he nodded furiously pulling my tiny body into his defined chest. I smiled at the warmth of his body against mine.

"Goodnight Cody..."
