Diamond.

I had gotten out the shower. I was just standing there with the towel wrapped around my body. My heart was racing. I kept thinking about that kiss. I wasn't expecting that. Yea I had feelings for him but ugh I don't know. I didn't know what I was feeling right now.

I unlocked the door and went back inside my bedroom. I seen Austin on his phone. He looked up and seen me.

"Diamond I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable. I shouldn't of kissed you. That was wrong I'm -"

"Austin it's fine.." I grabbed my clothes and went back in the bathroom to change my clothes. I changed into a tank top and shorts. I put my hair up in a bun, took out my contacts and put my glasses on. I brushed my teeth and hung my towel up. I went back into my bedroom and got in my bed.

"Diamond -"

"Please let's not talk about it ok?"

"...ok"

I turned the tv on Hell's Kitchen. I loved the way Gordon Ramsay yelled at people. It made me laugh. That would keep my mind off that stupid kiss and these stupid feelings I feel.

Austin.

"You watch this?"

"It's on my tv isn't it?" She responded a little irritated.

"Yea but ya know some people just put stuff on to go to sleep"

"Not me."

"You don't think he's rude?" I laughed a little.

"That's what's funny about it and I would love for you to stop talking so I can hear it"

"Sorry...goodnight" I turned over and pulled the covers over me. I shouldn't of kissed her. Now it was gonna he weird between us. It already is. It was stupid. I shouldn't have told her anything. Should've just kept all this shit to myself. I'm so stupid. I fuck everything up. Maybe I am weak and pathetic like my dad says.

Jason.

I went to King's room and knocked. I went in after hearing him say come in.

"Sit up lemme talk to you" I said as he sat up on his bed. I sat next to him.

"Dad I'm really sorry"

"Why did you do it in the first place?"

"...I don't know..wanted to get high and you look like you got good stuff" he shrugged.

I laughed a little. This boy...

"King how would you know what good stuff is"

"It just look like it"

"Don't do that no more. I love you and want the best for you. You know that right?"

"Yea I know"

"You don't wanna get back on the football team?"

"No not really"

"Why not?"

"Cause it seems like everybody except Austin knew about what Kevin did to Diamond"

"It seems like?"

"Yea like everybody be acting suspicious"

"Son I'm pretty sure the only person who truly knew was Kevin's friend. That nigga Michael. Trust me Kevin's dad told me Michael was the only one to know about it besides him"
