You Are Me- Jenzie

014. Maybe

Mackenzie's POV

I walked into the principles office expecting to be bombarded with punishments way beyond my mind compare. But what I saw shocked me even more.

"Mackenzie?" Johnny asked standing up from his seat. I stopped lifeless in my tracks staring at him. Normally If we were still dating I would run to him and kiss him endlessly.

"Johnny? W-what are you doing here?" I whispered letting the door close behind me. The room was empty but a conversation can be heard in the other room.

"I just came to get my new schedule for tomorrow. He's in there talking to my parents now." He explained. I nodded my head not really sure what else to talk about. The room was silent besides the laughter from next door. The tension was so thick I could see it with my own eyes. We shared weird glances once in a while trying to avoid the awkward silence.

"Why didn't you come? Why didn't you see me? I know we aren't dating and things are a little weird with is, but I thought we were at a place where things could be just us. I still care about you but I'm just starting to believe that this is a one-way street." He confesses breaking the awkward silence. I was shocked at his confession for me.

"No! Johnny this isn't a one-way street. Believe it or not, I still love you and I know what I did was wrong but-"

"But what Mackenzie? Just give me a reason not to walk out of this room now." He said cutting me off.

"I did! I went to see you Johnny but it turns out while I was being a puppy dog fool you were out with another girl. Or should I say, Nadia? What are you dating now?" I ridiculed. My temper got the best of me again today. He stood there not saying a word. Anger boiled inside of me.

"You are?" I whispered trying not to draw attention. His jaw clenched while his fists balled. He looked taken back by my answer but surprise soon turned to hostility.

"Look, Nadia changed alright. She wasn't the bitchy girl we knew last year. She's different." He said

"Keyword wasn't. That doesn't mean she isn't. She's probably out there destroying somebody's life right now as we speak."

Hayden's POV

After we cleaned Annie off, the bathroom was a complete mess. Boys ran in and out once in time but didn't dare say or do anything they weren't supposed to. Resentment still boiled inside of me. The more I look at her the more heated I get. Nadia is so lucky she's a girl and I'm a boy.

"Guys I'm fine. I can go to class now." Annie said taking the towel away from her face. She gave me a quick smile before standing up and making her way out of the bathroom. I made no move to stop her.

"This isn't right Carson. Nadia is a bitch and deserves to rot in hell for what she did to Annie." I declared openly staring at the door. I could hear his exaggerated sigh behind me.

"Well, maybe there's a reason she did that to Annie." He said pushing me out the bathroom. I stopped immediately turning around.

"What did you say?" I snapped.

"I mean you know how Nadia was always jealous of Annie because she thought she and Johnny were dating when they were younger. Now that Kenzie's here she started to get jealous of her. Kenzie kissed Hayden. Maybe Nadia thought Annie wasn't good enough and now she feels she is a loser. Maybe?" He said.

Bell rings

He gave me a small hug then walked the opposite way of me. I walked to class late of course. I couldn't get what Carson said out of my head. Maybe he's right. Nadia is just bullying Annie for never being enough for me. She always had this thing going on between me and Johnny it's ridiculous. Or she just did that because she is who she is and will never change. Whichever one is right there both still wrong.
