I roll over and rub my eyes.

12:39 pm

Pretty good, especially after last night. I grab for my phone and have 18 text messages from my group chat with Em and Skyla.

~~~~~

Em: AMZES DID YOU SEE THE VIDEO?

La-La- OMG! I just saw it all over twitter!

Em: Whyyyy didn't you tell us that happened?

La-La: What did he say to you after??

La-La: You look bomb in the video btw

Em: Also like who recorded that but didn't help you???

La-La: True!! What a jerk

Em: I mean like it was posted by Jack, but he was probably just sent it by someone

Em: AMZIE WAKE UP!

Em: IT IS 11 AM!!

Em:UGH AMZIE!

La-La: You know she won't wake up until at least noon

Em: Well I need this hoe to wake up now!

La-La: The only way to do that is to go over to her house

La-La: We could bring lunch and meet there at 1?

La-La: We could get pizza!

Em: I'm down! See you at 1 Amzie!!!!!!!! And don't worry, you'll be telling us everything no matter what.

~~~~~

Wait what video? WHAT VIDEO?

Also they are going to be here in like 10 minutes, UGH.

I jump up and brush my teeth, wash my face and slip on a white crop top and black jean shorts. I braid my hair back and head down stairs to see if Bentley is here.

"Bent? You here?" I call down the stairs and see his bed room door open. That means he either never came home or already left.

As I make way my into the kitchen there is a note on the counter.

~~~~~

Amzes,

I totally saw the video. I'll be home around 5, you better explain then

-B

WHAT VIDEO??

I pull out my phone but just as I do I hear car door close outside, at least I will find out what video and get to eat pizza!

I open the front door just as they are walking up the porch.

"Amzie, what the hell? You're awake? Why didn't you text us back?" Em fires at me. Here we go.

"Just come in and give me the pizza and show me the video" I say as I roll my eyes.

"Don't worry I already have it pulled up, and its margarita pizza!" Skyla says as we walk towards the kitchen table.

"Y'all are the best! Now show me this video!" I gush as Skyla hands me her phone. Its only 45 seconds long, how could this be a big deal?

The caption reads "Brody is a bad ass"

Oh god. It starts with that random guy all over me and with in 10 seconds Brody is punching him. Ugh, I guess that really did happen. At least I look good in the video.

100 K retweets, 250K likes

What? Who would retweet this? Especially if they don't go to our school. We have a big school but not THAT big.

"Amzie? Are you okay? Your jaw is hanging open?" Em asks. I snap my month closed and rewatch it three times. I mean Brody looks hot and all but it's not worth this much attention on twitter.

"Why is this so big?" I ask as I grab my first slice of pizza.

"Umm why did you not tell us it happened?" Skyla shoots back. I shrug and take a bite of pizza.

"You were drunk" I turn towards Emerson "And you were with Brian the whole night. Plus it happened and then we left. And I mean y'all saw the video. The only thing it didn't show was than random loser was messing with me for like 5 minutes and was just starting to get aggressive. Then after the video,or what you can't really heard is him asking me if I'm okay, and me saying yes, then asking him why he help me, and him just walking away." I finish and continue to eat pizza.

"Wow, Amzes that guy was a creep. Are you okay?" Skyla asks as she grabs some more pizza out of the box.

"Yeah, I'm fine just confused why this is blowing up on twitter"

"I'm not sure" Em answers

"It's because, one it is a fight. Two, it is like really sweet he helps you. Three, everyone is mad at that creep. Four, some youtube retweeted it saying it proves there are still good guys in the world or something like that. And five, everyone wants y'all do date, or know if y'all are dating or want to know what happened after the video ended." Skyla says likes its obvious.

"Oh" I'm stunned. "but table that for a minute. Em can you explain what is happening with you and Brian? I didn't like the way he talked to me."

"Yeah I know, I think I'm going to break up with him. He is getting really possessive and telling me what to do." Em sighs.

"What do you mean, possessive?" Skyla asks with a look like she could kill Brian.

"Just like telling what to do and getting mad when I'm not with him or if I take more than 3 minutes to text him back. Or if I don't answer the phone when he calls or face-times he get really pissed. And he raised his hand to me last night, he didn't hit me but he almost kind of did." Em rushes through and looks down the whole time.

"That bitch" Skyla growls.

"Call him now and break up with him" I demand. There is no way I'm going to let Em get any deeper with this guy.

"No, no. Its fine I'll just wait it out, maybe he'll get better." Em says still looking down.

"Emerson don't you play this stupid game. You are too smart to get into an abusive relationship. If I tell Everett, which I will if you don't break up with him, he will kill him. And now I'm all for that but also I don't want to live my life on the run with Everett so he doesn't go to prison. Nor do I want to be a prison wife." Skyla jokes but is also dead serious.

"Maybe y'all are right..."

"Of course we are right." I state.

"Okay, okay. I'll call him now. Or should I do it in person?" Em asks as she pulls out her phone.

"Definitely call, he might get really mad and you don't want to be within reach" I say.

"Okay, can I go in your room Amzie? I'll FaceTime him" Em asks and I nod. She heads up stairs and Skyla and I start to clean up.

~~~~~

"Its done, but it wasn't pretty. He is pretty mad" Emerson says as we all are sitting on my queen bed.

"Are you okay?" I ask as I rub circles on her back.

"Yeah I think so, I didn't have any strong feelings for him. I'm just little scare he might do something"

" It will be okay, we're always here for you." Skyla says as she gets up to turn on the TV and grab the remotes off the floor. I guess they fell when I was sleeping. " Time for some Netflix, Jane the virgin?"

Em and I both nod and we start the show. It's a great show btw.

About 20 minutes into the first episode, I feel my phone ding. I pull it out and unlock it.

Unknown: Hey, can I ask you something?
