The next morning I wake up late, lucky I had no school. I completely forgot what happened yesterday until I walked over to my mirror and stared at the bags under my eyes and how red they were. I was a mess. I slowly walked back to my bed and crawled into it not wanting to do anything today. Ughh I feel like shit. Why do I always do something like this and start shit. I grabbed my phone from my bed side table and saw I had a message from Ed. I smiled as I realised I still had him. My best friend.
E: Heyyy how r u?
P: Hola! Ehh, when you coming back?
E: I'll be back today but it'll be late
P: Ah great! Can't wait to see you again
E: Yup, gtg see ya tomz
P: Byeeee cya
I rolled on my back and started thinking like I always do. 'Why can't he just believe me? Like we're best friends. I would never try to hurt him. I'm just trying to help him. This Amy person is not who she says she is and I know that as a fact but maybe just maybe has she changed?'
"PENNY!" I heard my mum calling from downstairs "Honey! Get out of bed!" I groaned as I dragged myself out and made my way downstairs to find the devil herself. Amy.
I looked at my mum then her in a shock impression. I was trying to say to my mum 'What is SHE doing here!?' Using eye contact but my Mum just smiled.
"Sweetie, Amy here came to see you." She put her hand on my shoulder then said. "I'll leave you two alone, I'll be in the kitchen if you need me."
My mum walked out leaving us two alone together. The tension in the room grew as we both stood there staring at each other. There was so much things I wanted to say but half of them were rude so I kept my mouth shut.
"So this is where you live." Amy said disgusted as she broke the silence.
"What are you doing here?"
"Oh well I heard you were talking about me yesterday." She began what of course made me roll my eyes. "And well Craig came to me and he wasn't that happy."
"Okay what's your point?" I started to get pissed.
"Well he asked me if you and I have some history or if we knew each other and I said no because does he want to know what YOU did to me?" She smirked.
My mouth fell open as I stared at her. "What the hell do you mean me!? You're the one who bullied me for most of high school! Don't go act all innocent. I did nothing to you!" I started to raise my voice as my temper grew higher.
"Really? I could say that you turned all my friends against me and made them bully me as you were the leader."
"GET OUT! I think it's the other way around. You made my life even more hell than it was. You nearly got me expelled once. You didn't know anything about me but you did know I was an out cast and an easy target so you took it." I was literally pushing her out my front door.
"But who would Craig believe? He's girlfriend or he's jealous 'friend' oh and by the way, nice pajamas." She laughed studying me up and down.
"Bye Amy." I slammed the door in her face before she could reply.
~Craig's POV~
I didn't know what to think last night so I did what Penny said and asked Amy about it and she said she had no idea what she was on about. Was she just jealous? Why couldn't she be happy for me? But her words stuck to me.
'You weren't there for me yesterday.' What did that mean? did she need me and I wasn't there for her? Is she getting the urges again? What's happening with her? I trust her with nearly everything but what was happened with her and Amy that's making her hate Amy.
****
I was sitting in my living room when I heard a knock on my door. I looked out the window and saw Amy standing there. I smiled while I opened the door to greet her but my face soon dropped as I noticed she was staring at the floor looking upset.
"You ok? What's wrong!? Come on in." She walked in pass me and sat down on the sofa. I walked over and sat myself down beside her. "Tell me what's wrong."
"I lied." She simply said. "I do have a past with Penny." My eyes widen as I now knew that maybe Penny wasn't jealous but what could have happened?
"Okay, what happened between you two?" I looked in straight in her eyes dead serious.
She took a deep breath and she began to speak. "Well we were kinda friends and well she wasn't always nice. She use to boss me about a lot and then one day when our friends went the other way to go home we walked the same way and she pushed me up against a wall an_-"
"She would never do that." I interrupted her, shocked that Penny would say anything like that.
"Well she might act like she wouldn't but trust me I've seen her true colours." She said snappily. "As I was saying, she pushed me against a wall and threaten me. I didn't know what to do so I just stood there shocked then the next day none of my friends would come near me and after awhile they started spreading shit about me." Her eyes started to tear up. I put my arm around her shoulder to comfort her.
"Well what I've heard she was going through rough times herself." I simply said to try and comfort her.
"NO SHE WASN'T!" She shouted at me what took me back a bit. "Sorry.... She was just a real bitch that did loads of stuff to me. I really don't know why you're friends with her." I froze at her words as I stood up from the sofa.
****Later***
When Amy left I took my phone out and decided to text Penny.
E: Hi, we need to talk, meet me at the lake around 1 tomz
It took awhile for Penny to reply but she finally did.
P: Okay.
