Trusting You

Ditchers be Bitchers

Rue's POV

I woke up to the buzzing sound of my alarm. Urgh! It isn't the weekend already? I thought about Blake and everything that happened yesterday. He was very sweet and I honestly wasn't expecting it. Then I thought about Noah, sigh. Things haven't really been the same between us since I moved. I mean, yeah, Noah is an amazing boyfriend but I just don't know if I'm feeling it anymore. I got up and walked towards the bathroom then I glanced at Jess's bed. She looked very peaceful in her sleep compared to yesterday. I wonder what happened to her. Today was her free day so I decided not to wake her up cause when she does, she's going to have a hell of an hangover.

I haven't seen Sam today, which is weird cause she's always like everywhere! I walked into Maths class with my head down because I don't know anyone in this class. I took seat and brought out my pen and notepad. I felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned back and saw a very cute girl with glasses. "Hi, you're Rue right? You were with Blake last night?". I was shocked, I didn't know people were watching us! "Um, yeah. Anything?" "Well I know you're new and I don't think you've heard of Mabel but you might want to stay away from Blake". Wait, what? Blake has a girlfriend? Mabel? I was utterly speechless till I realized that the girl was still waiting for my response. I cleared my throat, "Blake and I are just friends but thanks". I turned back to face the front and saw that the teacher had already entered the class. That. Was. Weird.

It was time for lunch and I still haven't heard from Sam. I didn't feel like eating so I decided to call Bri, it should be lunch time by now. I stepped outside and dailed her number. She picked after the first ring, "Rue! Omg I thought you died or something! You didn't call last night and you didn't pick my calls either. What happened?" Okay, I was a little tired from the party yesterday so I might've forgotten to call her, oh well. "I'm sorry Bri, it's just that I went to this party last night and" "YOU WENT TO A PARTY?!?!" "Shhhh Bri, stop yelling! I'm right here" "I can't believe you went to a party and didn't tell me about it after. You know we..." Just then, I noticed Sky walk pass the back of the cafeteria towards the back gate of the school then curiosity got to me. "Um Bri I have to call you back later" "You're ditching me?!?!" "No of course not, it's just that my class is about to start and I haven't gotten my books yet" "Rue I know your class doesn't start till the next 20 minutes" Busted. "Omg you're ditching me! Rue, you know Ditchers be Bitchers!" I don't even know what that means but she's been saying it since the day I met her. "Bri, I promise I'm not ditching you. I'll call you back later.". I could see Sky standing by the gate. He looked like he was waiting for someone. "Okay fine, but you better call me. I need to know everything that went down at that party" "Fine Fine. Bye!" "Whatever". Immediately she cut the call, I started running towards the gate. Have I ever mentioned I'm not fit? No? Well I'm not fit! As I got to the gate, Sky turned around probably from the sound of my steps. I was completely lost of breathe. "Hey Sky", I was still resting on my knee trying to catch my breath. He just looked at me dryly, "What do you want?" Okay, not the greeting I was expecting. "I saw you walk by and I just thought I'd say Hi and also to find out if you've seen Sam today". He just kept looking at me with a bored expression till a motorcycle pulled up beside us. A guy much older than Sky was sitting on the bike. "Skylar, get on. Now!". His voice was so rough and very sharp. Sky looked at me briefly, "Check the music room". He turned away from me and got on the motorcycle. The Grumpy guy eyed me from top to bottom then sped off. That was strange. Who was that guy and what's Sky doing with him?

I ran to the music room very excited to see Sam and finally get some explanations about everything but what I saw left me speechless. There, in the music room was Sam with a guy that I think I had seen with Blake and they were not exactly having a friendly conversation. I cleared my throat and they flew apart, both staring at me with wide eyes and open mouths. "Hey", I smiled sheepishly. "I'm sorry to disturb. It's just that I've been looking for Sam and then Sky said to check here and then I didn't know, I just.." "Rue, it's okay". Sam walked up to me, "This is Tyler. Umm he's Blake's friend and umm well" I quickly understood. Sam had been keeping this a secret because she knew Blake would be upset! "It's okay, understand". I walked up to Tyler, "Hey, I'm Rue" "I know, nice to meet you". They both looked at me expectantly, I laughed. "It's fine! My lips are sealed"

As I was walking to my dorm room, someone bumped into me. Scratch that, someone shoved me. I looked up and came face to face with who you would call "The Queen Bee". I mean it's all so obvious. Long blond hair, flawless skin, lots of makeup and less clothes and top it all, the perfect scowl. Behind her were two girls, obviously her minions. Oh come on guys, do we have to be so stereotypical? "Are you even listening to me?". Oh she was talking? "I said, what's your deal with Blake?" Huh. "What's my deal?" "Yes, everyone's saying you were with him at the party yesterday. Is it because you knew I wouldn't come that you decided to leech on him".  Excusez moi? "Firstly, I don't even know who you are and secondly, Blake came up to me. I didn't shove myself in his face so be careful what you say to me". I stormed past them in anger. Who does she think she is? Accusing me in that way... Me? A leech? I scoffed. I slammed into my room coming face to face with Jess and the other two seniors. Great! A full house, just when I wanted to be alone. Jess ran up to me, "Rue, are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine. Just some bitch yelling accusations at me saying I was leeching on Blake last night". One of the seniors spoke up, "I'm guessing that bitch is Mabel". Then I remembered the girl this morning that warned me about a certain Mabel, then it all fell into place. I looked up and realized the senior was still speaking, "She's Blake's ex and they're kind of in the middle of a complicated situation so try not to put yourself in it. I'm Kesha by the way". She smiled at me with her hand out. I shook it, "I'm Rue". The other girl did the same, "I'm Liza, sorry we haven't been around alot. We're seniors and there are lot of things we have to catch up on plus we're in the cheerleading team and we have practice literally every day". I smiled, no wonder they were so fit. "it's cool" I yawned, suddenly feeling sleepy. Jess guided me to my bed. "You should probably get some rest". "Yeah" I mumbled before I blacked out.

I woke up to the buzzing of my phone. I looked outside and realized it was already dark. Shit! I slept for that long. I realized my phone was still buzzing, I picked it up and saw the call was from Noah. I smiled and placed the phone to my ear. "Heyy" "Rue what the hell?". Not expecting that. "What happened?" "Bri said you went to a party yesterday night" Shit! Oh Bri. "Yeah and?" "And?! Rue you fucking went to a party in the middle of the night without telling me." "Calm down Noah. It wasn't in the middle of the night plus nothing happened!" "You expect me to believe that? Then why didn't you tell me?" "I was tired and it escaped my mind. Noah you're making a big deal out of nothing" "It might be nothing for you Rue but it's a big deal for me finding out that my girlfriend went to a party without telling me and there are all these guys everywhere!" "Noah I'm telling you nothing happened!" I was starting to get angry. I looked around and no one was in the room, thankfully. "How do you expect me to believe that?" Then it clicked, "You don't trust me?". Then there was silence. "Answer me Noah, you think I would cheat on you? Is that what you think?" "No it's just..." "Save it!" I ended the call and opened my closet. I put on my Nike hoodie and joggers. I needed to clear my head. I went out and locked the door.

As I walked on the campus, all I could think about was my fight with Noah. I can't believe he didn't trust me, after a year! We were turning a year and 6 months next week. I can't believe after all that, he didn't trust me. I wiped a tear from my face as I felt a hand on my shoulder. I quickly spun around and came face to face with Blake.
