Random question but what's your favorite song by Danielle Cohn? I don't have one but I love to make fun of 'em. 

"Aubrey?" I rush over to her before I could even think about it. 

"Zoe? What the hell are you doing here?" Luca asks. "I wasn't talking to you, you dick," I spat at him. "Making out with Luca, duh," Aubrey looked at her nails. 

"Fuck you, slut! Once, a hoe, always a hoe," I exclaim and she smirks. 

"Zoe," Luca says.

"Fuck you too!" I cried and make my way to Zeke. 

"I have to go," I tell him but I see him making out with that blonde girl he told me he liked. 

Must be fucking nice. 

I decide I'll text him in the car and leave without looking back.

"How was the pro-" Addalyn cuts herself off when she sees me with mascara all over my face. "What happened?" she cried and follows me to my room. "I wanna be alone," I say before more tears spill out. I don't even know how I got him at this point. 

I remember crying pretty hard once I got in my car and started driving home. It all happened so fast. 

"Not till I hear what happened. I know you weren't Ember but I didn't feel like asking questions. I'm not a fucking cop," Addy said and made herself comfortable in my beanbag. 

I tell her everything. I tell her about opening the Madison account to get over Luca. I tell her about Fred. I tell her how I got bold and kissed him on the cheek. I told her about Jacob. I told her that Zach and Ander canceled. Then the tears came once I got around to Zeke's story. 

"And you saw Aubrey and Zeke... making out," Addy finished and I nodded. "She's a bitch," Addy said at last. "I wish you told me all this earlier," Addy frowned. "No one knew," I said, weakly. 

"Wish I did, though," Addalyn pouts but I don't crack a smile. 

"I thought I hated him. Why am I so..." I can't find the right word. "Hurt?" Addy found it. 

"Ding, ding, ding," I mumbled. 

"Awww," Addalyn stood up and tried to give me a hug but I felt weak and just tried not to have a meltdown. 

"It'll be easier to get over him by thinking of all the shittiest things he's done to you," Addalyn said and got a piece of paper and a red pen. 

"I'll do the writing and you do the talking," she said and sat down, professionally. 

"He ditched me for popular kids, he broke my heart, he's a dick," I say after a few minutes. 

"And he has terrible taste for choosing trash over treasure," Addalyn scribbled for a few minutes and handed me the paper. 

"Now, I want you to look at this every day and say: Luca Martinez is a... satan," she tried not to grin but smiled big anyway. 

"I'll do it every hour," I promise and she grins. 

"If it's during school, think it," she noted and I agreed.

Luca's POV:

"Dude, your life is fucked up," Rylan said once I filled him in on everything that happened at the bar. So far I was doing good not thinking about Zoe but seeing her call me those names made me feel terrible but I can't lose to David. 

I just fucking can't. 

"David is a dick. He and Aubrey deserve each other," I sigh. "Sorry, dude," Rylan sighs and takes a sip of his beer. 

"I need to get his phone so I can delete that video," I say for the millionth time. 

"How?" Rylan asks for the millionth time. 

"Somehow," I reply and think hard for some sorta plan. 

"I got it," I say after a few seconds and Rylan looks up at once.

Zoe's POV:

"There has to be a freaking reason why he was with Aubrey. Not even Luca could go that low," Ember shook her head. "Well, he did," I mumble and pick at my nails. "Aww," Ethan gives me another hug. 

Boy, guy hugs rock! 

Ember's phone rings and she gives me a weird look. I give her a blank stare and she mouths Rylan. 

"Ohh," I say, to myself and no one else hears. 

"I gotta go," Ember says and leaves. 

"What the hell? Your friend is hurting and you just leave?" Ethan says once Ember is gone. "It's fine. She told me last night she had some appointment today. I'm guessing she forget and that was her mom," I assure him. "And hey! I am not hurting," I lightly punch him and he chuckles. 

"Well, if you're not then I can go out with Josh, right?" he raises an eyebrow. "Ice cream with the gang could never hurt," I wince. 

I did not want to be left alone. 

I would probably find myself marching up to Luca's house and demand him why he did all those things. 

Not the best thing to do. 

"Ok, foods ready!" Addalyn peeks her head in my room. She volunteered to make Mac and Cheese while talking to Eli over FaceTime. 

"Yay!" I cheer with Ethan and I grab my phone because I know we will take an eternity figuring out what to watch. "Ice cream for dessert?" I ask while we're heading downstairs. "Yes, ma'am," Addalyn hollers and I grin.

"Ok, what to watch," Ethan puts on his thinking face, and I face-palm. "This is gonna take a while," I mutter and get cozy and try to cool down my dinner. "How about a Mean Girls marathon?" Addy suggests. "It's not a marathon if it's only 2 movies but I'm in!" Ethan answers. 

Ok, not that long. 

"Sweet," I answer, beaming.

We were at the part where Cady offered Regina that "healthy" granola bar thing when someone called our landline. 

Yes, we still have one because all of my grandparents didn't know how to work a smartphone so they only used their landline.  

"Hello?" Addy picked up the phone. "Hey... yeah no, it's fine! Yeah, our parents are out right now on some business thing. They should be back tomorrow in the afternoon. Now? Yeah sure that's fine," Addalyn hung up and gave us a weird look. 

"Luca's staying for the night," she said, wincing.
