The Life Of Gabi Walters: Book 1

Chapter 3- The Truth Is Revealed- Sort Of

~Gabi's POV~

 I grab a tissue and frantically wipe my eyes. Her steps get closer and closer. She gets to the stall before mine, and stops. After a few seconds, she goes in. Phew, I think. I quietly sneak out of the stall and try and creep out of the bathroom. 

 "Well, well, well." Her eyes fill with wickedness as she moves her platform heels toward my Vans."Aw. Were you crying? Was it because of Adrien? Oh nevermind, of course it was. You're basically in love with him right? Well, I think it's about time he found out. Don't you think?" She takes joy in my torture.

"That's not true. I don't even like him."

"Yes you do."

"No I don't."

"Then what's on this video?" She smirks and points to her phone. My face goes pale as she presses play. It's a video of me talking to Tessa about how amazing Adrien is. I'm screwed. I think. All of a sudden, she pushes me against the wall, and starts kicking me in the stomach. "Have fun dealing with the aftermath of this." She snickers and struts out of the bathroom.

What am I going to do? He can't know I like him. I need to delete that video. I text Callie and tell her what's going on. Not even two minutes later, she rushes into the bathroom, panting.

"I got you girl. I saw her locker combo. It's 42-45-18."

"Okay, thank you so much!" I try to hug her, but she dashes off.

"Sorry, no time!"

~Callie's POV~

I race down the hallway to get to her locker. Locker 413, I think to myself. Locker 413. I finally get there, and I can't remember the combination. Crap. I text Gabi.

Callie: What's the combo?

Gabi: You said it was 42-45-18.

Callie: Okay, thanks hun.

I turn the dial and the locker pops open. "Yes!" I scream. I search through her bag and finally get the phone. I delete the video, then snoop a little. I look at her texts.

Dad: One more house party and you're off to military school!

Vanessa: Omg NO Dad! I would DIE! Those horrible outfit colors. CAMOUFLAGE! And NO WIFI!

Dad: Then I guess no more houses parties.

Vanessa: UGH! I hate my life so much!

I search through her photos and find a picture of her throwing a house party three hours after this text was sent. I send it to my phone, then delete the text so she won't see it. "Oh. My. God." I mumble to myself. I finally have some real dirt on Vanessa Sesponza. I rush back to Gabi as fast as I can. She will be thrilled.

~Gabi's POV~

Callie comes bursting through the bathroom doores like a maniac.

"What happened?" I ask.

"You will not believe what I found on her phone. We finally have the upper hand." Callie shows me what she found, and I am elated. If she tells Adrien, we show this to her dad. Or we show him anyways.

"So are we showing him?" I ask her.

"Up to you."

"You know what? Let's do it. I'm sick of her treating me like garbage."

So we do it. She's headed to military school. She's about to leave, when she walks over to me and slaps me.

"I swear I will get you for this! I swear!" She yells in my face. But I just laugh at her. She gets escorted outside onto a bus.

"Ding dong the witch is dead." Tessa jokes. We turn our heads to Adrien, Alya, and Megan, who are glaring at us. "Well, at least one of them is." We all giggle.

I can't help but feel a knot in my stomach. Like I just set in motion my own death. (That's probably because I did.) Just as I think this, Adrien walks over and slams me into a locker.

"I can't really hurt you or I'll get suspended, but believe me, I want to. You should watch your back Walters. Because it's about to get a whole lot worse for you." He lets go of my shirt, and walks away, steaming. Why do I like him? That's what everyone keeps asking me. It's because I know he's still in there somewhere. The friend I used to have. The one I know can be brought back. I'm not giving up until he is. I don't know what I have to do, but I will do anything I have to. Because I miss that guy. I miss him so much. And he will be back. I don't know how, or when, but he will.
