It was my second year in high school when what I thought would always be the same had drastically changed. Now into my last year, I'm still left with a broken family, a secret in my friendship group, a masquerade ball with messy emotions, and me str...

You are free to imagine whoever for the other characters. I mean even with the twins. After going through high school, I realise high schoolers do not look like the cast of TVD.
Enjoy chapter 2!

Rowan's P.O.V.
A week of spending time with Carter made me realize I was wrong. You'd think I'd be used to all the stares but I wasn't. In fact, I hated it. The moment I dreaded had found it's way to me and I knew it was inevitable. Rumors were swirming and people were not being nice. Not that I couldn't handle myself but the fact a girl can't be friends with a guy without being slut shamed was seriously keeping me in a bad mood constantly.
In the girl's bathroom washing my hands, the entrance door slammed open with an angry Ashely stomping in, meghan hot behind her trails. I inwardly groaned. Everyone and anyone knows Ashely will stomp out any competition to win over Carter. That's why no one dared to be with him despite the fact he himself never even said he wanted to be with her. She had some sort of invisible claim on him that made everyone afraid to even try.
But to be fair, it's not my fault Carter won't leave me alone. I seriously don't know what's wrong with him. He's been sticking to me and my friends like glue and it's really freaking me out. Why is the most popular guy in the school, other than Brandon, spending time with a girl like me? Lucie I understand, even Naethan... but me?
"Listen, I've been nice to you because you're Rachel's sister, but there's only so much I can tolerate. I know I can't get a reaction out of you, but you know who I can get a reaction out of? Rachel. She's been doing everything and anything to stay relevant and popular by sticking by my side like a good little pet but I can easily ruin her life. Do you want to be responsible for ruining your sister's life? I mean I know she gives no shits about you, however I see how protective you are of her. Back the hell up from Carter and no one gets hurt."
So that's how she wants to go about it.
"Oh and don't make up some excuse that you're not trying to get with Carter. Your sister told me how freshmen year he was all you ever talked about. Talk about embarassing. I have pictures of your diary from back then and I will send it out to him, maybe the whole school. I mean if he knew he was being friendly with a stalker in love freak, do you think he'd still pretend to be your friend? To be honest, because Rachel is taken, I'm sure he just wants to sleep with someone who looks like her since he can't get the real one so don't think so highly of yourself. This is your first and last warning."
She proceeded to stomp out with Meghan throwing a glare my way. The bathroom stall at the very end opened and Lucie popped out seething in anger.
"I'm gonna kill her-"
"No, you're not. Relax, and trust in me."
"I'm your best friend for a reason. I know you and I know you'll push him away."
