nine .

i stare at my phone in horror, my hands shaking.
i was on the verge of screaming at whoever was trying to destroy my life.
"talie i didn't take that picture?!"
"and i'm the only other one who has your password right? but i would never do that to you. you know that."
"at least i think you're the only with my password," i say, confused.
"finally!" natalie exclaims, "i got it taken down!"
"thank you," i sigh, "how long was it up for?"
"an hour at most."
"shit," i say, "how am i supposed to figure out who this is?"
"i'm with you the whole way," she says, "we can talk about it at school tomorrow, but my parents are about to beat my ass for no reason. i hear them walking towards my room."
"okay," i answer, "thank you. i don't know what i would do without you, especially right now."
"yeah yeah i got you boo," natalie whispers as she ends the call.
i put my phone on the counter.

is someone watching me right now?
i shudder at the thought.
i have a real stalker.
i looked over at the windows and quickly shut the blinds all around the house.
-
as i walk to my door, i pass by maya's room. i hear her watching the vampire diaries, and i debate whether i should go in to apologize or not.

later.

finally getting to my room, i take off my dress to get new clothes.

click. click. click.

a flash goes off outside my window.
i scream, hiding myself behind the closet door.

oh HELL nah.

i sprint into maya's room with my clothes, trying to hide myself from all the windows in the house.

click. click. click.

i try to bang on her door without waking my parents, but she yells back, "go away y/n!"
"maya let me in, i can explain, just let me in!" i panic, and look around the house to see if the possible suspect came inside.

nothing.

"damn, chill out," she says, opening the door slowly.
i run into her room and break down into tears.
"what happened?" she says, walking towards me.
"i think i have a stalker."
"why do you think that?"
"because i DO have a stalker!"
"okay, okay, explain."
"haven't you seen your snapchat?"
she shows me her phone, "i cracked it yesterday, it won't even turn on."
"oh," i say looking down, "well someone posted a-
            picture?"
"and?" maya asks.
"of me. without clothes on. in my room. and it got leaked at someone's party."
her face grows upset, "the fuck? who?"
"if only i KNEW," i exclaim, sprawling out on her bed. "i need to find him."
"how do you know it's a guy?" maya questions.
"i don't know," i say, "why would a girl do that?"
"girls are bigger bitches than guys y/n," maya says, "you should know that by now. they have no mercy."
"i guess.." i stammer, playing with the bracelets on my wrist. "can i sleep in here tonight?"
she looks at me, her face grows into a smile. "sure, but you get the floor."
as i leave to get my stuff, she stops me, "we'll find them. i know it."
i sigh, bringing her into a hug,

          "thank you maya."
