It is now Sunday. Yesterday was fun with Clayton. He is helpful. I decided it was time to confront my friends and find out why they were being the way they were to me.

Me: Silvia, please tell me what I did?

Silvia: Why did you beat Carter up?!

Me: What do you mean? I didn't beat him up.

Silvia: Yeah, right. He told us himself! We saw all the bruises and scraps!

Me: I didn't do it. Though I am capable of beating him up, I did not! Don't just jump to conclusions!

Silvia: Then who did? And don't lie to me!

Me: Here is how it actually went down. He pinned me to the lockers and kissed me, telling me that he liked me. He stole my first kiss Sil! I said I would never forgive him and that I didn't like him. I couldn't defend myself because he caught me off guard! Clayton saved me! He beat Carter and saved me! I thought you were supposed to be my best friend!? What happened to that? Huh!?

Silvia: ........

Me: Huh?!

Silvia: Come to my house.

Me: Fine.

I put my phone down and went to get my keys. Dakota was watching Melanie this weekend, so I was free. I stepped into the car and drove off to Silvia's house. I passed by trees and houses. I pulled into her two-story house, looking at all the cars in the front. Bianca's car, Joey's car, Garret's Harley, and obviously her car. I was wondering what they were doing here. I walked to the door and was let in. She dragged me to her room.

I saw that all my friends were waiting in her room. Garret was leaning on the wall with his arms crossed and head tilted  backwards, against the wall. Bianca was sitting in Sil's desk chair, next to Garret. Joey was sitting with his hands folded in his lap, on Silvia's bed. And Sil herself sat next to him. I stood their, looking at all of them. My arms over my chest and a frown etched on my face, expressing my mood.

"Is this an intervention?" I broke the silence.

"No, I showed them the text and we decided to give you a chance." Silvia answered.

"Look what I said is true. I can get Clayton to tell you? He saw everything. I would never beat Carter, not if I had a valid reason." I expressed my true feelings.

"Carter said you beat him up because he asked you to the dance again." Garret spoke up.

"Well, do you think I would do that?" Garret and Silvia looked away. Joey stayed quiet.

"NO!" Bianca blurted, "I believe you. I just kinda went along with everyone else. I know you wouldn't do that. I can see it in your eyes." she smiled.

I gave her a smile back. I glared at the rest of my friends who didn't believe me.

"Okay, i'm convinced." Garret came over and stood by me. "I know you wouldn't hurt anyone just because they asked you to the dance." Garret nodded as he spoke.

"Thanks guys." I gave them a genuine smile.

Garret nodded his head and Bianca winked. She is one crazy cookie. I looked at Joey and Silvia.

"Do you need proof?" I glared at them, taking my phone from my back pocket.

"Can I see some?" Silvia looked at me.

I gaped at her for a second and recomposed myself. Dialing Clayton's number, I waited for him to pick up.

He finally answered.
