Partners in Detention

Chapter 15

Meriya's Point of View

Yesterday was so weird. Getting hit on by that guy was the weirdest thing. I mean, I never get hit on by guys. Let alone guys I don't even know. I told Jillian that I was going to catfish him, so that's what I am going to do because I don't break my word. 
+++++++++
I am a strong believer in the act of treating others how you would like to be treated. I don't ever want to be lied to, even though I do get lied to, so I don't lie to others (besides catfishing). I wouldn't want to be cheated on so I won't cheat in any of my relationships. So that is why I am just going to catfish this guy. I don't want to seem mean but I have been catfished before and I am sure this dude is really some girl just trying to figure out my secrets and exploit them to the entire school. 

Well, guys, it's time for me to go to class. Thanks for always being here for me. I will come to you guys more often. 
++++++++++

"Hi Meriya. How was yesterday?" 
"Huh?" I turn around and see Jill standing there with a completely straight face. I think she is upset. "What are you talking about?"
"Why did you keep talkling to that guy? I thought you loved me?" She is crying now; and not so subtly either. 

"I didn't keep talking to that guy last night. And I was going to tell you as soon as you got here that I wasn't going to talk to him until we could do it together. So, you have no reason to be upset with me." 
"Oh. I-I-I'm sorry. I just thought that- I'm sorry."
"It's okay, just next time please talk to me first. Okay? Come here." I pull her in for a hug and she cries in my shoulder.

Jillians Point of View

Having to fake cry is hard, but apparently I am pretty good at it because I am able to just do it on the spot, if needed.

After Meriya helps me "calm down" I give her a proper hug and kiss and we just talk about everything Gabriel has said to her. Of course I already know everything but I act as though I don't. Meriya seems so pleased with herself and I slowly fall more in love with her because of her cheesy smile when she talks about her "passions" which apparently turns out to be catfishing people. 

I can't help but smile when she laughs at how much Gabriel is believing her. She makes my whole stomach jittery and wonderful. She makes me feel like I have never felt love before. It feels like she is the biggest and most important part of my life. I intend to keep her for as long as I can, I hope she feels the same way.
