{Romeo}

I opened the glass door into Lava Java and I immediately spotted Betty. Her back was turned to us and she was stacking cups up on a shelf. I walked towards the counter, Seb following closely behind me.

"Hi, what can I get you?" A bubbly blonde girl behind the counter asked before her mouth dropped open, "You're Romeo Beckham" I chuckled and nodded.

Betty's head turned around slowly as she heard my name. "Romeo, what brings you here, thought your family was more of a Starbucks kind?"

"Actually, I'm looking for you, Can we sit and have a chat?' I ask as polite as I could to the girl who broke my brother's heart when she cheated on him.

"I'm on a break in 10, take a seat you two, I'll join you" Betty replied. This was weird, Betty Cullins was actually agreeing to talk with me and Seb. Betty went back to snacking cups and I looked back at the fangirl in front of me.

"Oh My God Romeo, Can I get a picture please?" She asked as she took her phone from her pocket. "Of course," I took a quick selfie with her and Seb still stood there. "What can I get for you both?'

I looked at Seb and he looked at me, we both shrugged. "Just two black coffee's" I replied, handing her some money.

She gave me change and smiled, "I'll bring them over."

As I walked away I heard her whisper to Betty, "You know Romeo Beckham?"

I could just make out Betty's reply, "I actually dated Brooklyn Beckham."

I took a seat at a table for four and Seb sat opposite me. "You always meet a fan, where ever you go." he rolled his eyes and I chuckled, "Welcome to being a Beckham."

The girl brought over our coffee's and Betty followed taking a seat. "I figured you'd want to see me."

"How'd you figure?" Seb questioned before taking a sip of his coffee. The coffee flew right back out of his mouth and I almost wore it. "That's why I'm a Starbucks guy"."

"The coffee's pretty disgusting here, I must agree." Betty screwed her face up slightly.

"So, I'm guessing this is about Asha?" Betty questioned and Seb and I nodded. "She told me I was going to be first on your list for questioning."

"When did you speak to her?" Seb spoke hurriedly. I think he may now be more desperate for answers than me.

"I got a text this morning. She told me, to tell the truth, or no one would ever find her. It was a message to everyone you two are questioning. I believe she sent a video or something."

"She did" Seb replied. "So what did you have to do with this?"

"I'm gonna tell you the truth, only because I regret it. I regret what I did to Asha."

"Go on, we're waiting."

"Everyday when she left your lunch table to go to the bathroom she'd meet me. I was a bitch to her. I told her she wasn't pretty, I told her how she shouldn't be friends with a Beckham boy because he was way too good for her. I told her how she should hate you, Romeo. She didn't cave in, every day she'd go back and be happy as a kid with candy at your lunch table. So then I went further. I knew you and Asha had a little more than friendship, Romeo, so I used it against her, I told her you'd hate her if she had bruises and scars so I hurt her. With words and actions." Betty paused and breathed, a small tear escaped her eyes. "I was a horrible person to her."

{Betty}

I left my lunch table and my friends sniggered, "Make sure you leave a nice bruise." "Beckham Boy won't touch her."

I walked towards the bathrooms and I waited like I did usually. I heard the door and her light footsteps on the tiles.

"Is anyone here?" I heard her subtle voice. She was so innocent and scared, I almost felt bad for her.

"Still Me" I bounced out and she jumped.

"Why do you do this to me, Betty?" She whimpered as she backed away but I didn't let her. I held the door shut with my foot and she stood in front of me. No way of escaping.

"You deserve it you little bitch, You're not pretty enough for Beckham boy," I smirked proudly, she was my puppet and I controlled the strings.

"We're not even dating" she whispered shyly as she inched away.

"Really?" I asked my hands reached for her short school shirt and pulled it up, "That's why you wear thongs to school, don't you? Thinking you might get a little something for Romeo."

She shook her head. "Well, he won't like you, if you show him these bruises" That's when I started hitting her, mainly on her thighs. I knew the bruises would appear soon.

{Romeo}

"I guess I was just jealous, I had no need to be. I had Brooklyn. I just couldn't understand how such an imperfect girl could get a boy like you Romeo" I shook my head in disagreement. "Asha was perfect. She was perfect to me. I loved her with everything I had." I was standing and yelling, people were looking at us.

"Romeo, sit down" Seb pulled me by the arm and sat me back in the seat, "I feel like there's more."

"There is" Betty replied.
