as payton and ellie settled down in the car to continue eating their mcdonald's and chatted about the recent scenario that just happened, paytons phone dinged, meaning he got a notification.
as payton read whatever text he got, a look of fright flashed through his facial expressions and he immediately rushed over to the instagram app and typed in 'tiktokroom'.
"shit"
"what oh my god" ellie said trying to read over paytons shoulder.
payton didn't look at ellie, just shoved the luminescent screen in her face.
ellie quickly skimmed over the words and her face fell.
"what the fuck, why would they do this"
the boy and girl played the video once again.
the girl who was recording them in the restaurant must've sent it into tiktok room, and it got picked. they did nothing bad at the place but, people are saying now that the way they acted was like a 'couple'. even thought ellie had said multiple times that it was just a good friendship. again it's just more and more accusations and rumours saying that they are dating once again.
"this is our private life and they shouldn't interfere with it" said ellie furiously as she lightly passed the phone back to the owner. she felt like crying, not tears of sadness, tears of anger. that girl who videoed them violated the line between being a fan and saying hi, then recording them while they were unknown to such sorts. ellie was 80% sure that girl did it out of hatred.
"hey,don't cry, it's ok" payt tried to comfort her by bringing her into a hug.
suddenly the tears just came flying out, from the two of them.
why do this.
just why.
while the pair were still in their embrace, ellie's phone went off with a series of notifications.
siri started reading them out but ellie quickly cut her off. that whole process takes way to long, never doing that again. she prefers typing.
ellie reached for her device and looked at the lock screen which viewed the texts. seven from anthony, twelve from bryce, eight from jaden, twenty from mads, sixteen from nessa and five from quinton. plus a series of calls in a number of group chats with the victims of the recording in it.
ellie sighed weakly and plopped the phone back where it was. she understood the guys were looking out for her, but she just wasn't in the mood to talk right now , she just wanted to be with payton and with payton alone.
"we are gonna show them that we don't care" payton suddenly spoke.
ellie looked at him and grabbed his hand.
don't let them win.
