Backstabbed (H.S)

Chapter 19

"...and then Mia caller HER insecure, and then BAM, teacher broke it up. Thats it." Miny shrugs.

"Did Mia really spread that rumor about you and the footballers?" I ask, breathless.

"Yup." she sighs,"and now the love of my life is heartbroken, and so am I."

"I didn't think Mia would do this kind of thing."

"Oh," Miny's posture straightens up, "she does it all the time, you just don't see it. People have thought of telling you about who she really is, but why bother? You wouldn't beleive them if you've never seen it."

"What does she do?"

"You really haven't noticed?" she raises an eyebrow.

I shake my head no and Miny sighs,

"Well, the boyfriend thing with me, called Mack a whore, almost tricked her friend into losing her virginity as a bet, told Mack's ex to...yeah, nevermind, threw a smoke bomb into a girls shower because she told on her, made out with a guy in the locker rooms, told you to leave Mack in the rain, slapped Mack, told her to die, to get help, everything is mostly Mack."

My mouth is hanging open and my eyes are wide. "They are many more things, those are the ones this year, and its only the second week." she adds.

"What about Mack's ex? She told me just this morning she's never had a boyfriend?"

"She says that to everyone because it wasn't a real relationship. During Sophmore year, Rick and Mack had started dating and Mia thought it would be funny to make Rick win some money."

"A bet?" I throw up in my mouth.

"Yes," Miny nods, "so.."

Miny stops while the bell rings and she scrambles out of her comfortable stance and stands up once its finished ringing.

"I suggest you ask Mack this....I don't want to be the one to tell you when it's her story to tell." Miny nods at me and walks out of the library, leaving me understanding why Mack tensed when I had asked about her love life earlier.

Mack's pov:

I've been sitting on my bed, laptop on my lap, watching Netflix when a sudden tap comes from my balcony door.

The tap is loud enough for me to hear through my headphones and I'm wondering if it's someone like a murder hitting my sliding door with a bat.

I quickly stand from under my covers and clutch the end of my bat that I hide under my bed. I pull my curtains from the door rather roughly and get ready to pounce at anyone at the other side of the glass.

"WHOA, calm down!" says Harry, standing on my balcony.

I put my hand to my chest and clutch my shirt, "I thought you were someone else."

Harry smirks, "Can I come in?" he taps on the glass.

I nod, grabbing the handle at the corner of the door and sliding it open, giving Harry access to my room.

He makes his was towards a chair at the corner of my bed and I jump criss crossed on my bed.

"Two questions," I start, "How did you get on my balcony and was school let out early?"

"Climbing the tree next to it and no." he smiles.

"Ahh, ditching is the word for this perticular situation." I nod.

Harry laughs and tilts his head back and I smile at the sight.

His laughing dies down and he's staring at me, full on, like he did on my porch last Saturday.

"Again, can I help you?"

"I came here when 5th period was over...I get to ask you 14 questions." he answers, leaning back and setting his hands behind his head.

"Ok, shoot."

"Who is Rick.
Whats your favorite food, color, drink, movie, and subject?
What kinds of vegtables do you hate? Are you something other than puerto rican?
Girly, yes, no, or in between?
Read or watch movie? Coffee? Places you want to go?
Least and best favorite flavor? and fruit?"

I shudder at the first question and go through the answers in my head and give Harry a small smirk.

"Lasanga,
brown, dr.pepper,
divergent, social studies,
tomatoes, dominican, in between,
read, no, U.K, chocolate and
rasberries, yes." I smile at him, and he smiles back, clapping his hands together while leaning foward.

"All answered very well, except for the first one." His eyebrows are raised and his hands are tied together. I can't help stare at the cross on his wrist.

"Please?" he whispers.

I shrug,"Why should I tell you about the past? It's stupid anyways." I wave my hand on in front of me as if to say who cares?

"Miny told me he agreed to a bet that Mia gave him." He says sharply.

My head snaps up and my eyes start to water at the memory and my voice comes out stern and shaky, "Why would she..."

"Because I had asked her what Mia has done badly, things that I'm to blind to see." he sighs, "she accidently brings up something about Rick and I dug a little bit deeper into the story."

"How deep?" I mutter through my gritted my teeth.

"Not very, thats why I'm here."

I sigh, "I will tell you one thing," his shoulders slouch and a frown overcomes his face, "let me continue....I will tell you one thing FOR TODAY."

He nods in understanding and leans further foward into the chair than what he already was.

"He was my first love, and my first mistake."
