"Wait, seriously?" Xandra asks, surprised that Paige had admitted it so easily in a place filled with cops.
"Of course not, you idiot, I don't have anything against Jacqueline."
"Lies! You're super jealous of Jacqueline!"
"Alex...." Xander knows where this is going and he doesn't like it. He doesn't want this conversation to happen, especially not in public.
"You knew Jacqueline liked Alex from the beginning, you made her bully me so my brother would hate her but they ended up together anyways."
"Shut up! Just shut up! That's not even close to what happened!" Paige yells, her eyes are getting glossy from tears.
"You know it is!"
"I didn't even know Jacqueline liked Xander you dumb shit!"
"It doesn't matter if you knew or not, you think I don't know you still like Xander? You think I haven't noticed you stalking us, you just happen to be everywhere we go and you're always asking about Xander. 'You guys are losers, by the way where's Xander?', 'what are you guys doing here? And where's Xander?'" Xandra does a terrible impression of Paige's voice, "It is just so sad."
"Says the girl who seduced her math teacher," Paige retorts.
"That has nothing to do with this."
"And my liking Xander has nothing to do with this."
"I know you did something to Jacqueline."
"I did not," Paige is glaring daggers at Xandra, she looks ready to strangle Xandra to death, the only thing stopping her is probably the room full of cops.
"Then why did you-?"
"Because of you!" Paige yells before Xandra can even finish her sentence. By now, everyone in the room is listening, its hard not to when the people talking are extremely loud.
"Its you! It has always been you! You evil conniving bitch! I was targeting you! Its your fault Xander broke up with me!"
Xander swallows hard as he feels everyone's gaze land on him.
"You didn't deserve to be with him," Xandra says, finally lowering her voice, "he was ready to give you everything and you cheated-"
"I did no such thing and you know it!" Tears of anger rolled down her cheeks. "Xander, I swear, I didn't do anything. I know you may not want to believe me but Xandra lied to you."
Xander looks at Xandra, waiting for her defense, but Xandra has gone quiet.
"We were only together for two weeks! Why would I do something as foolish as that? Here's what happened, Savannah told Xandra that she liked you and Xandra took it upon herself to split us up. Don't you ever wonder why she always pushed you to ask Savannah out but she never did the same with me or Jacqueline? Its because she promised Savannah that she would do anything to make sure you end up with her."
"Alex.....tell me its not true," Xander says.
"Its not true," Xandra says immediately but she's not fooling anyone, not even the people that have absolutely no idea what's going on.
"Despicable," Paige mutters angrily and walks away.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have done that but Savannah.......it was supposed to be just one date and I thought about telling you the truth but........that look is what I was trying to avoid"
