it started with a dare (COMPLETED)

Monday morning: 

"Please work on your assignment with your partner," my English teacher says and Ember and I grin at each other. Somehow fate allowed us to be partners for some Macbeth assignment packet. 

"Over here," I motion her over to join me. "Fine, I guess I'll have to move," the cute guy next to me pouted and I laugh as he moved seats to go meet his partner. 

"Alright, I got some smart dude to do the work for us last night so we can just chill now," Ember got out her phone and paired it with her apple watch. She opened the camera app on the watch and put her phone away once she was satisfied. 

"Wait, don't copy off word for word. We don't want her to get sus," I hiss before she starts writing. Ember looks at me, shrugs, figures I'm right, and goes back to writing making sure no one can tell she's copying. 

"So" I begin, casually, "I've been thinking," I tell her. "Go on," she replies, not stopping with the copying. "The Madison account. We just left it like that," I get to the point. "Correction: you left it like that. I used it," she says keeping her voice low. 

'Well,  I want to get it back running," I tell her. "Seriously?" she scoffs. "Yeah, it's the only way I can get over Luca. By talking to other dudes and going on dates with 'em," I explain the brilliant plan that formed in my mischievous head on the day after Sasha's party. 

"Ha... no," Ember replies, and I frown at her. "Come on," I beg. "It's the only way," I remind her. "Nothing is impossible," she winks. 

Then the stupid bell rings.

"I'm telling you, it's a stupid idea. You don't know the guys on Snap," Ember says. We were walking to lunch together and I rushed up to her. 

"I'm not innocent anymore," I remind her and she scoffs. "They're gonna force you to send nudes and fucking blackmail you," she said, bitterly. 

"Has it happened to someone? Like... you?" I press. "No," she says in a tone that reminds me of Professor McGonagall. 

"Fine," I "drop" the subject and we plaster on a smile as we find our way to Addalyn & Ethan. 

"I just passed my Spanish text," Ethan grins. "Since when did we talk about our grades?" Ember mutters, "Since you been sneaking off with that dick's best friend," I mutter and she shoots me a dirty look. "Oh, you were talking about-" she replies and I cut her off before she says his name. "Lord Voldermort. Yes, I was," I cut her off and she snorts. 

"Anyway, what did you get?" I ask Ethan before he or Addy got suspicious of what me and Ember were talking about. "A 65 percent!" he beams. "Out of what? A 70?" Ember blurts out and Addy shoots her a look. "Couldn't help yourself, huh?" Ethan rolls his eyes. "You know it," she grins. 

"I got mine later today," I sigh, realizing I didn't study. 

"At least we'll get a hundred on the Macbeth packet," Ember says, noticing I was not prepared for the test. I grin back at her.

"I'm off to Eli's now. Mom and dad texted and told me they'll be home pretty late. They told us to order pizza. I'll be back by 7 with it," Addalyn says once we get home from the long-ass school day. 

I got an 80 on the Spanish test, so I definitely deserve the pizza. 

"Ok, I'll be at home... alone," I say dramatically. Addy gives me a look. "Oh no. I'm sure no dementor thingy will come and kiss you," she says, sarcastically. "It's ok, I got the movies and books to keep me company," I say at the same time. 

"Girl- bye," Addalyn grabs her keys and takes off. 

Oh yeah, I'm a HUGE Potterhead!

It just wasn't fair how Draco and Hermionie didn't end up together! Like they woulda been the cutest! Also, Cedric should NOT have died. He was too cute and noble. is it just me or is Seamus slept on? Like in the movies, he's HOT! 

Anyway, I won't bore you with my thoughts on Harry Potter so I'll just continue. 

My phone vibrates and I get a notification from Snapchat. 

Mhm, that reminds me. 

I pause the Harry Potter movie that's playing- it was the 4th. I was too busy being depressed, knowing that Cedric would be dead at the end. 

I log out of my Snap account and it takes me to the login page. 

I put in the username we have for Madison and the password we decided on- EmandZo

Luckily, Ember did not change it. I'm surprised because she hates the name Em. 

I drop my jaw to see the number to friend requests- 450! 

"Damn," I sigh and go through them. I confirm as many as I can and in no time a guy called, "Colt B." is typing. My heart beats as I wait impatiently to read what he texted. 

C~ Hey!

I reply back:

Z~ Hi

Right before I close my phone, I get a text from another guy. Then another guy. And one more. 

In 5 minutes time, I have unopened chats from about 10 guys. 

"Ah shit, I'm about as popular as Dumbledore," I smile and open the chat from Colt.

C~ You send nudes?

Z~ Bye.

I blocked him. 

Where my Potterheads??? 

Hope y'all won't mind some Harry Potter references. I'm gonna do a movie marathon in a few days!!

Love yuh!

Be safe!
