Brooke looks at me weirdly. "Are you okay Jessy? You've been acting weird all day" she says
"What was that? Nevermind, i'll see you tonight - i mean monday" i say, running off to my car. Damn it, now they definitely know something's up.
For a second, i glance over at Grayson, who is trying his best not to laugh at me.
"Shut up" i mouth.
He shrugs and waves goodbye.
I slump my butt on the driver's seat and sigh. "God damn it" i whisper shout, brushing my hair back. I'm the worst liar.
Before i leave, i take out my phone and i go through my snapchat feed. I go through all of them until my eyes fall on Andrea's story. I click it and what i see, surpises me.
"WOOO, CHUG CHUG CHUG CHUG!" people are cheering Andrea on as she chugs down alcohol from a tube
"Omg" i whisper. There's another video of her making out with one of the most popular guys in my old school. There's also a picture of Andrea and a girl posing together, they must be a club. The girl looks familiar. It must be that chick from when i facetimed Andrea.
"Happy birthday to my best friend Tiana! Love you so much hoe!" it said in the caption. Best friend? I thought I was her best friend...
That Tiana girl has totally changed her, she used to be the girl who was always up for a friendly sleepover or let's go out for ice cream type of girl. But now that Tiana is there, she's getting her into clubs at the age of 16 and making her drink alcohol upside down from a tube! I hate how moving changes people.
"What happened to you?" i whisper.
I chuck my phone violently in the back seat and drive off. I can't wait to let out all of my anger on this fight.
I look out the window at a red light, rolling it down for some fresh air, even though it's raining. I hear laughter from outside. I look and see a girl being swung in a guy's arms.
"Cameron, put me down!" the girl says. CAMERON? I look closer at the girl.
"Julia?" i say out loud. They hear me.
Julia looks startled to see me, so does Cameron. My mouth is dangling open. They both ditched the meet up just to hang out with each other, and Cameron knows that Julia is already in a relationship. I narrow my eyes at them.
Cameron takes Julia's hand and they rush inside a house, shutting the door behind them.
BEEP-BEEP. The light has turned green and the cars behind me are beeping me. I drive staring into nothing. This has gone too far...
7:56 pm
I sit on my bed, trying to figure out how to trick my parents.
Oh i know. I'll say i got a job. I think to myself. But what job? I think, pacing my floor. Maybe babysitting? Thats a good idea. There's a family down the road that have 3 children, i can say i'm babysitting them. Yes, perfect.
I slip into my sports gear and pull over sweatpants and a zip up jacket, to hide my sports gear. I braid my hair into 4 separate braids. I pack stuff i need for the fight, like a water bottle and a towel. I place the bag down at the front door and walk into the kitchen.
Act natural. I take a deep breath and speak. "Hey, m-mum" i say.
"Yes" she says typing on her computer.
"You know Mr and Mrs Hollows down the road, with the 3 kids." i say.
"Yes" she says writing something down on a sheet of paper.

Fanfic"you were 35 points ahead!" he shouts. I don't reply. "Jess, I thought you weren't scared of her." he says walking closer to me. "Well I'm human! Okay?" i say, hesitating a little. "And i'm terrified"
