"What are you doing here Emilio?" Larson spat out harshly.

My heart was beating out of my chest, I pulled on the sleeve on the arm that covered my sleeve of tattoos and shuffled my feet next to Greg.

"I have something." He mumbled back.

Everyone stared at him back, waiting for him to specify what he meant.

"For Luna."

Greg and Larson tensed up at my sides and Daniel turned back to look at us, waiting for us to react.

I folded my arms and looked him straight in the eye, "What is it?"

He smirked and tried moving closer but Larson stopped him, "It's not here yet."

"Excuse us." Daniel mumbled, grabbing my arm and dragging me into my room.

"What the hell is going on Luna? I need you to explain everything. Now." He demanded.

"I'd explain but leaving Greg, Larson and Emilio out there alone isn't the best ide-"

Ding Dong!

"Who is it now?" Daniel grunted, opening the door to the room and joing Larson, Greg and Emilio in the living room.

"What are you doing here?"

"Emilio called me, said we were coming together to celebrate Luna's birth...day? Why is everyone staring...?" Jessica stopped talking when she noticed everyone narrowing their eyes at Emilio and Daniel staring at her.

"You're lying..." He whispered, "What did he say?"

"W-what?"

"You know it isn't Luna's birthday. So, what did he say?" Daniel growled, his fists started to ball so I walked up behind him and grabbed his arm. He pushed it off but the second his turned to see it was me he whispered an apology.

"It's true..." Jessica whispered, tears forming in her green eyes.

Daniel sighed, "What the hell are you talking about, Jess?"

"She's not your niece is she?" Jessica whispered, her tears slowly staining her face.

"What?" Daniel and I said in unison.

"Is she your niece, Daniel?" She asked.

"W-what are you-" Daniel was interrupted by Jessica reaching in her wallet and pulling out a familiar picture, one I've seen before.

I stared at the picture closely and noticed it was the exact same picture I found in my locker just weeks ago, back when everything with Daniel and I was okay.

"Where did you get that?" I spoke up.

"That doesn't matter. What matter is, this is a picture of the two of you, getting real close. You two aren't related, are you?"

"No." Daniel told her, "I have no relative connect with Luna at all."

"So, this picture I'm holding in my hand. The one where Luna's leg is bent and her arms are snaked around your neck and your hand is on her inner thigh up her...skirt." She choked out, "Your meaning to tell me this isn't photoshopped?" She swallowed her tears and stuck out the picture.

Daniel and I looked at each other before I decided it was my turn to speak up, "No, no it isn't photoshopped." I looked towards the ground and stared at my socks.

"Jess...please." Daniel tried moving closer to comfort her but she pushed away and opened her mouth to speak once more:

"She's your fucking student Daniel." Jessica whispered.
