Dear Readers,
Sofia and Aaron set on the couch quietly watching 'Bambi', one of the Disney movies they used to watch all the time when they were best friends back before the 9th grade. Aaron watched the movie happily finally with the girl wrapped around his arms, Sofia set there nervous and scared, but for what reason? Sofia didn't know for herself, questions running through her mind non-stop since Aaron kissed her. She started to play with her thumb, which Aaron noticed before long he paused the movie and faced Sofia.
"What is wrong?"
"Nothing." Sofia lied between her teeth, she felt bad for lying but she couldn't say it. Aaron paused for a moment and watched her closely take her in slowly. Man, isn't she just beautiful! Aaron thought, he wanted to say it out loud but he didn't.
"Call Daisy and Diane, their boyfriend since you know. I'll call Nate as you do that. We all have lots of explaining to do." Aaron said, kissing Sofia's forehead and then walking out the room the call Nate.
Everyone had some explaining to do, and that exactly what Sofia wouldn't stop thinking about.
-- Thirty Minutes Later --
It took some convincing but everyone was here. Sofia grew nervous as they started talking about things far from what she wanted to know. Sofia may be the most popular girl in the school but she still had moments where she wanted to die in a whole from embarrassment or hide behind her hands when everyone stared at her.
Aaron saw all of this, he knew her more she knew herself. After a few minutes he finally quieted everyone down, told them the reason they were here.
"We all have explaining to do. Lots. I don't care how much hurt any of you get, we are all staying in this room till it's done." Was exactly what he said, Sofia found it a little hot how he said it, it lightened up her mood a bit. "So, this will be a secret reveal kind of thing, but no one reveals anything about anyone else. We got that?" Aaron asked, everyone nodded. Diane hrew nervous, Alec - Daisy Boyfriend - was hesitating, Daisy was scared, and Nate was neither, he was open already, but hopefully he didn't have to confess that.
"How about we play spin the bottle, so everyone gets a chance. Whoever the bottle lands on the person across it both have to confess a secret they are both hiding. Got that?" The words blew between Sofia's lips, everyone agreed and she bit her lip nervously. What was going to happen?
Aaron went to go sit down next to Sofia and than gave her a light squeeze on the hand. Sofia's head turn towards Aaron who was already looking at her. Their eyes met Aaron stared into her eyes reading every secret and things that make her happy just like that. Sofia softly smiles at him with a wink to hide her nervousness, but Aaron knew that Sofia was trying her best to hide her feelings.
"Sofia!" Daisy hollered snapping Sofia out of her little day dream, Sofia looked at Daisy confused. "How about you go first, tells us what's up." Daisy said, giving a smile of encouragement, Sofia slightly hesitated.
Sofia eyes wondered to the empty Sprite bottle, how was she going to tell this? To two girls who were he fake friends, to the boy who she had always been in love with, to the guy who was cheating on her fake friend with her other fake friend, and to the person who she thought was her secret admirer that was best friend with the boy she was in like be with.
"Well, I don't know where to start... so, I'll start of slow... I was abused... by my ex-boyfriend and father. But... they serving their time now because someone called the police one night and told them a girl was being abused. I was saved, I could've... could've died that night..." Sofia felt the wet tears stream down her face, looking up from the bottle, and to the people in the room.
