Everything happens for a reason (Lauren/You)

Chapter 15

The car ride back to my grandmas house felt like if she lived right next door. My cousin and I talked about everything. She asked questions and I'd answer them truthfully.

When she put the car on park in front of our grandmas house, she reached into her glove compartment and handed me her eye drop bottle.

"Put some in your eyes and then clean your eyes with this" she said while handling me a damp scented towel

I did what she said and was about to open the door when she said

"I won't tell anyone and you don't have to tell anyone until you are ready. I know our family is a bit tough and old school so if you need me for moral support then I'm here"

"Thank you" I say

"Oh and Fuck that Bitch" she said

It was already passed midnight and I couldn't help to go on Twitter, instagram,and Snapchat to see if they had posted anything

To my surprise there was nothing but something else caught my attention. Lauren was out with a guy. According to people on Twitter, they were on a date.

I couldn't help but feel my heart hurt more than what it did.

I decided that it was best to turn off my phone for the rest of the night.

It was now monday and I was dreading going to school. I hated the thought that they might have spread the video around. But then again, they probably wouldn't post it because they wouldn't want to be seen as bullies or do they?

My first three classes went by slower than usual and people would stare but they wouldn't say anything. Not until lunch that is.

"(Y/f/n) are you okay?" One of my friends asked

"Yeah, why do you ask?"

"Because we saw the video" they said with a frown on their face

"Ohh"

"We already told the counselor and they said that they'd handle it so you might be called to the counselors office sometime today or maybe tomorrow"

"Why?" I asked

"Because What they did to you is considered bullying!!"

"I really don't want to go"

"You have to!!"they said

"But what if they call my parents?!"

"They have to call your parents this is serious!!"

"They don't know I'm bisexual" I wished

"Ohhhh"

It was now the end of the day and I felt a little relieved. They called me into the counselors office and I explained everything to him. Fortunately they didn't call my parents. They made Erica and her friends delete the video and if they would do something like that again they'd get suspended, wether it happened in school or not.

The whole time I was in there with them I couldn't look her in the eyes. I felt her looking at me but I wouldn't turn.

When everything was over the counselor told them to go and made me stay a little longer.

"Are you sure you're okay?"he asked

"Yes I'll be fine"

"You can come in here anytime you want, I'll be here if you want to talk" he told me

"Ok thank you" I said

When I walked out I started to make my way to my last period but was stopped by the one and only Erica

"Hey"

This time I didn't hesitate to look at her, roll my eyes and then walk past her.

"(Y/f/n) please" she said while getting in front of me

"What do you want Erica?!

" I just wanted to say sorry"

"Okay bye"

"Really (y/f/n)"

I turned and looked at her

"Really what Erica?! Why would you do something like this to someone?!"

"I-"

"And what do you expect me to do? Listen to you after what you did to me? I really thought we had a thing at least starting to have a thing."

"We did, I was falling for you. Yeah I only asked you out because it was a dare but I had fallen for you"

"Yeah right, what happened to 'you're the last person I'd ask to be my girlfriend?"

"They told me to say that" she said

"Whatever, I shouldn't even give you the time of day!! I unfortunately choose you and because of that I lost a friendship or maybe the best relationship I could've ever had!!" I said while walking away

"What do you mean the best relationship you could've 'ever had?" She said trailing right behind me

"I could've been with the girl I love if I wouldn't have chosen you" I said while opening the door to my last class period
