Blackmailing Isn't cool

24. The plan

Seth POV

My plan is working. It's working so well, I didn't think anything could work any better. These girls are so predictable, except for one little flaw...

That can be fixed though.

Kate POV

I set my phone down, on my desk. Carefully, and slowly. Then I pick up a pillow, also carefully and slowly.

Then I start punching it. I punch it hard, and picture Seth's face plastered on it. As I punch, Tears run down my face.

He said he loved me. He said he loved me, and he broke up with me. Over the phone. With no explanation. He just did it.

I throw the pillow across the room, and put my head in my hands.

My first heartbreak. It sucks.

Especially when you don't have any friends to talk to it about. God, my life sucks.

I get an incoming Call. Caylie. I answer it.

"Are you going to apologize?" I ask, grumpily.

"No, I-" as soon as she says no, I hang up. I don't want to hear her yelling at me right now. I can't.

Caylie POV

Somehow, the secret got out. Grace hates me. She hates everyone. I get it.

I need to call Kate. This is all her fault.

"Are you going to apologize?" she asks when she picks up.

Apologize? Why would I need to apologize?

"No, I-" but she hangs up before another word can escape my mouth. What was that all about?

Ashlyn and Alex got into this fight today.

~~~~~~flashback~~~~~~

This is before Grace's secret got out.

My friends and I, are sitting at the lunch table.

"What's this?" Alex says, picking up a piece of paper off of the ground.

This is what is said.

Shelby,

I have to tell you a secret. It's quite funny, actually. Alex has this huge crush on Aaron! It's hilarious watching her obsess over him! I don't care if this rumour gets out, then it might shut her up! Remember though, you didn't hear it from me!

-Ashlyn

Alex's eyes grow large. "Did she read this?"

"I didn't write it, I swear!" Ashlyn says, putting her hands in the 'surrender' position.

"Then who did?"

"I don't know!"

~~~~~~flashback over~~~~~

It was crazy. Alex got so mad, and Ashlyn just kept insisting she didn't write it. Now they aren't talking.

After that fight, and the secret about Grace's parents divorce getting out, we all fell apart. All mad at each other.

I can't do anything. I don't know what to do. I seriously don't. It's infuriating.

Seth POV

Do you see my plan? Have you figured it out yet? No? Well I won't tell you!
