Aspen Bailey is what everyone would refer to as a nerd.
She wears black rimmed glasses and a high ponytail, She never shows more skin than necessary, and she constantly has her face in a book.
Her classmates either envy her or despise her because sh...
After Charlotte and I finally woke up we watched movies and she took me on a tour of the mansion.
She said that Carolina and Hayden live here, everyone else just visits.
I left Charlotte around seven at night with the promise of returning tomorrow after school.

As I walk through my front door I quietly close it behind me only to stop in my tracks when I see my mom sipping a glass of wine in the living room.
I try to sneak past her but to no avail.
"You sneak out of the house at two in the morning only to return at seven in the evening" she states with a suspicious tone which causes me to slowly turn around and face her
"Is there something that you want to tell me?" She asks but it sound more like a demand
"I was on a jog" I say with a shrug as my voice raises in pitch
Great, now she knows that I'm lying.
"You're grounded for two months and you're not allowed to see or communicate with Charlotte" she says which causes me to gape at her in disbelief
Being grounded for two months, I don't mind.
Not being able to communicate with my best friend, I couldn't do.
Especially at a time like this.
"Mom, You can't do this. You don't understand how important it is for me to be there for her right now" I say as I like to keep my voice leveled
If I yell at her then I'm only digging myself a deeper hole.
"Oh yeah, how important is it then?" She asks with a smirk which causes my eyes to widen
She just tricked me.
My own mother just tricked me.
I blush as I look down at my feet from embarrassment.
"I can't say. She wants to keep it private" I say as I peek up at my mom only to see her nod
"Go up to your room, we'll discuss this later" she says which causes me to nod before I run up the stairs and close my bedroom door behind me
Oh god, that was too close.

It felt like the school day went by slower than usual.
My bruise is starting to fade, but it's still grey and splotchy.
Maddie still doesn't believe that I'm Aspen since I've been wearing my hair down for the past three days.
And Kayden has tried to keep my mind off of everything that happened in the last twenty four hours.
Which I appreciated.
As I walk out of the school I see Carolina leaning against a matte black Range Rover while smiling at me.
I walk to her with wide eyes since she's attracting a lot of attention.
"What are you doing here?!" I scold as I try to subtly cover my face so that I don't get anymore dumb rumors spread about me
She smiles at me before opening the backdoor which reveals Charlotte sitting there with a smirk on her face.
She's dressed in a red cropped hoodie which exposes her toned stomach. She paired that with black high waisted skinny jeans that have a rip in the knee and white high top converse.
