forgot to mention this but since Selena's character changed, then the character will be mixed and not Latina. and yes, halsey is mixed she's just white passing.

"What the hell were you thinking?!" I yelled at Selena as she continued to stomp down the hallway. I began chasing after her the second she left the cafeteria.
She didn't turn around when she replied. "I was thinking that Rachel needed to be reminded of the truth."
"That wasn't the truth and you know that! You just wanted to hurt them!"
She finally spun around which made me stop in my tracks. Her eyes were blazing with anger and her cheeks were flushed. "You don't know my intentions." Selena snarled at me.
I rolled my eyes and kissed my teeth out of annoyance. "Then tell me."
She stared at me for a second, probably thinking that she doesn't have to do what I say, then spoke up. "Maybe it wasn't the truth, but a lie is good enough to make them hate each other."
It all clicked. Selena wasn't lashing out because her feelings were getting the best of her, this was a part of her plan. She wanted to break them up.
"I don't expect you to understand, D, I highly doubt you'll ever try to steal someone away."
"You think he'll want to be with you after that? You think he'll let Rachel believe you and then you two will run into the sunset together?" I scoffed and watched as her facial expression stayed the same. "Sel, he's gonna be pissed at you."
She shrugged like she didn't care. "This is just step one. I promise he'll like me back eventually."
Then she walked away, leaving me with a million questions.

When school finally ended, Kian insisted on letting him stay at my house for a while. He wanted to talk about everything and I couldn't say no. I needed to tell him so he can comfort me, maybe even give me some advice. And he probably has no idea why Selena blew up at his best friend.
My mom wasn't home, she's on a business trip, so we went up to my room and closed the door. Rachel was going to stay with Jc tonight since our mom won't be back for a couple days.
"Does Selena really hate Jc that much?" Kian questioned as we sat down on my bed. "I didn't think it was anything serious, but she accused him of some awful shit."
"If I tell you the truth, will you promise not to hate me?" I asked instead of answering his question.
His brows furrowed and he looked confused. "I could never hate you." He shook his head.
I nodded, fumbling with my fingers before speaking again. "She likes him and she's trying to steal him away from Rachel."
It felt like a weight was being lifted off my shoulders once the words were out in the open. But once the satisfaction of revealing the secret came, guilt crawled up in my stomach at the thought of betraying Selena. Why should I feel guilty? I tried to help her and now she's stabbing my sister in the back.
"Wait, you're serious? Gaga likes Shaggy?" Kian's jaw was practically hitting my mattress he was so shocked. I would've found it adorable if I wasn't struggling with so many emotions.
"Yeah, I'm the only person she's told, and I promised her that I wouldn't say anything to anyone." I frowned as the guilt grew and grew. He noticed and laid his hand on my arm. "I just don't want my friendship with her to be ruined."
