The One With the Attack

-Zadie's Dorm, Saturday morning-
Zadie's POV:

"Hey, Zadie, I'm headed out." My roommate, Reese told me. "Need anything while I'm gone?"

"No thanks." I mumbled, not lifting my head from the decorative couch pillow. I didn't want to move, I didn't want to talk, I didn't want to do anything. 

"Okay," She sighed, "I hope whatever you're going through gets better."

I bit my lip, slightly nodding as she shut the door behind her. "Me too."

deli would like to FaceTime...

I contemplated not answering, but I just knew she'd call back until she got something. 

"Zadie, I bought my dress!" She started to ramble out of excitement before I could even get a word in. "I know we were all supposed to go shopping together and what not, but my mom asked me to come home for the weekend for my aunt's birthday, because- well, I don't know if you would-..." 

I sat up from the couch, smiling for her. 

"Hey, you good?"

My eyebrows knit together in confusion, "Yeah, why you ask that?"

"Something's wrong. What is it?"

"Why do you think something's wrong?"

Delta tilted her head, "I know when something's wrong. Now spill."

"Have you talked to Bree lately?"

"No, why? Did something happened?"

I sighed, "She called me after the whole park thing, which I told you about, saying Chase was supposed to come talk to me. He never showed... the reason why is another story. But Bree said that I cheated on Chase?"

"What the hell?" I heard the dinging of the opened car door as Delta got in the driver's seat and set her phone up. "Did she say anything else? Like, was this the first time she's said something?"

"Yeah, literally, that morning we went shopping together."

"But wait, didn't you say that you and Chase left on a good note Saturday? Why would he tell her now?"

"I have no idea." I exhaled deeply, "Anyways... where are you headed?"

"I'm about to pick up Leo. Forcing him to go with me to take my dress to the alterations place." Delta groaned, "Shit, is everything gonna be awkward now?"

"No, absolutely not." I told her, "We're not gonna let whatever petty drama they've made up get in the way of your wedding."

"Thanks. Ooh, here he is now." Delta stopped, her passenger car door opening. "I'm on FaceTime with Z. Do you know what she just told me?"

"Oh my gosh." I mumbled, cringing at the rumor. "Hey Drooley."

"Hey, Z. What'd you just tell Delta? She's all worked up about it. Literally...twitching with anger."

Delta glared as she went on to tell him what I had just told her, "So, some idiot started a rumor that Zadie was the one to cheat on Chase and Bree got ahold of it. Now, Bree's refusing to talk to Zadie."

Leo shrugged, nonchalantly, "It was probably Kaz who started it."

"What do you mean?" I pulled my knee to my chin as I sat comfortably on the couch.

"It was whatever party you all were at- Del sent a snap of she and Kaz debating who cheated on who. I figured you guys were so torn up it was some sort of sick joke."
