The Fault in our Lies

CHAPTER ONE

     I've never been the one to talk. But I opened my mouth and got all of us in this captive situation. My friends that use to be my friends hate me now. I wouldn't be my friend neither.

   Melrose high school is the worst place to be right now, everyone is either talking about you, fighting, drugging each other, laughing at one of another. Ever since my spam on instagram got exposed, everyone hated eachother. I didn't mean to. For those that are confused. Im going to give you an explanation.

    Alot of Teens like me, or maybe even you, have a spam page where you like to vent and just spam photos, and Etc. Accept on my spam, I wrote about my friends problems as if they were my problems. I shouldn't had exposed there business, but I didn't. The spam was only for my eyes only. Somehow someone got ahold of my account and exposed everything I ever wrote on there. Am I embarrassed? More than embarrassed. My friends trusted me. Now they're all gone.

" Carter. Staring at the wall isn't going to do you any good." My older sister Jamie says stroking my hair.

  " yea.. I know. " I said glaring at her.

   Jaime is my older sister. The only person I really have I can call Family. She's been there for me through thick and then, and that's it why I love her. My parents died before I can even say the words mom and dad, my sister was 20 at the time, she took me in. And I just grew up knowing Jamie. I never cried at the thought of my parents being dead, I didn't even know them, but it does suck knowing that you have people surrounding you either complaining or even bragging about their parents. And that is something I wished I had.

   " you should talk to them Carter. Social media is a dangerous place, you have to be careful." She explained.

" Jaime. I know I know, it's hard, I'm trying to give them some space."

  Jaime got up from my bed and walked to my door, " you're going back to school starting Tuesday . I mean it."

I rolled my eyes, " do you want me to die !"

" Carter you're being dramatic! " she says closing the door behind me.

School in two days, Great. Iam going to suffer, and I already want to jump off a bridge. I'll add that to my bucket list.

    I walked over to my closet and threw on a baggy sweater and sweats. " Carter get your shit together. " I told myself.

I walked downstairs to see Atom. Atom is Jaime's boyfriend. They've been together for some years. He's actually handsome. He was watching football on the couch , " wassup Atom."

" sup kid. Wanna watch football? You missed yesterday's game" he asked,

" nah I'm okay...."

It's been a week since the incident happened with the Exposing stuff. And deep down inside I wish it never happened.

" come sit " he said. I walked over to him and sat on the edge of the couch.
" what's going on with you? You're never like this. "

I shrugged, " I don't want to talk about it Atom."

" why ? You're always comfortable with me "

" just not with this, I appreciate it alot Atom " I gave him a light hug and stood up. " I'm going for a walk, tell Jaime I'll be back in an hour "
