I lay on my bed, earphones in and the world tuned out as I try to forget what happened today and every time my mind would wander towards the subject I would turn my music up in hope that today would just fade. Wishful thinking. Lying on my bed, staring at my white ceiling and listening to the music dancing in my ears would be easier if my phone wasn’t constantly buzzing and if Scott wasn’t slumped against the other side of my door acting anything but himself. I let out a deep sigh as Scott banged on the door for probable the millionth time this evening, doesn’t the boy have anything better to do.
I swung my legs off my bed and threw my phone onto the bed. May as well deal with this and then I might face Blair , glancing at my bed I saw repeated flashes as more and more texts came through to my phone -all from Blair- if it crashes ,I narrowed my eyes at the thought. “What do you want Scott” I said as I wrenched open the door, causing him to wobble backwards. I smirked but it vanished as he jumped up and grabbed my shoulders in one swift motion. Worry etched all over his face. I braced myself for the rant that was to come.
“Ariel, are you okay, I was so worried and last night when I came home and the blood and...” I cringed at the memory, I left without cleaning. “When you came home early, your hair, your face” He paused letting it all sink in. “Are you okay?.”
I let out another exasperated sigh “Truthfully..” I began. “I’m fine” I finished. He looked confused. “But what happened?” He asked.
“Just Noah being Noah , he threw water on me as a joke and yeh.. Sorry about the blood he umm, he got into a fight…. And … Yea” I stood awkwardly at the door playing with my fingernails and looking anywhere but his eyes.
“Wait who’s Noah” He asked looking more confused than ever.
“Just this douche from school that ...” I paused accessing the situation “You know what, it doesn’t matter, just a douche from school” I flashed a reassuring smile.
"You know you can tell me if you have a boyfriend or anything” I interrupted quickly, laughing coldly.
“Me and Noah are never going to happen, I hate him” I hissed the last bit, but Scott just smiled lifting up his hands in defence smiling wildly.
“No need to get your panties in a twist” he smirked but he then crossed his arms frowning slightly. “Blair called” He said, I instantly felt a twang of guilt over the fact I had been ignoring her.
“Yeah” I gulped out.
“Don’t worry I covered for you, but she and I want to know why you’re not answering her texts and she said and I quote “If you don’t reply she’ll end your life or kill your dog” I laughed, that’s Blair for you.
“We don’t even have a dog” I giggled
He smiled warmly “I know but that’s what makes her even scarier, however being serious, text her she’s worried.” He then said bye and something about ordering Indian before I braced myself to look at my phone.
205 texts and 35 missed calls. “ Shit” I said out loud I was in a lot of trouble. Bravely I dialled her number “Hai”
“What the hell happened?” She screeched on the other line.

1 hour later and 1000 apologies later Blair was sitting on my bed as I retold her story for the millionth time. “Blair we’ve been over this”
“But I don’t get it” She said narrowing her eyes at me.
“What’s not to get” Currently we were attempting to watch ‘PLL’ but between Blair’s incessant whining I had missed all of it.
“I just don’t” She whined pulling her hair and rolling on the bed in defeat.
“Blair you’re going to knock the popcorn over” I Screeched. She sat up almost instantly and looked me in the eyes.
“So you’re telling me, that Noah has got some weird obsession over you. He turned up at your door …”
"Well he practically attacked me” I muttered, but shut up when a glare was sent my way.
“And he was all beaten up, he then confronted you about it, you then sassed him, he threw water sent a dude to take a picture and you assaulted him”
I frowned and then nodded “Yeah pretty much”
“I don’t believe it” She was now pacing my room and even though dressed in pink Disney pyjama shorts and a pink tank I knew to take her seriously.
I let out a large sigh before slumping onto my bed “What don’t you believe?”
“All of it, I mean it’s your second day and your already enemies with Noah, kicked him in the balls and practically ripped up the invisible terms of agreement” I bit my lip waiting for her to explode , instead she turned around grinning hands on hips “ When did you get so sassy” I laughed at her response.
“About two days ago.” She ran over and gave me a big hug whilst muttering something like ‘I’m so proud of you’. “Hey here’s an idea how about I get the Indian from downstairs I heard the doorbell a few minutes ago and you rewind to .” I was cut off by the loud drilling of my home phone. “Urgh Blair you get it”
“ I don’t want to” She whined but I pushed her off the bed.Bump.
“ You get the phone and I’ll grab the indian” I was already by the door.
“But itssss youuurrrr houseeee”
“ Then it’s my Indian” I then heard her say something under her breath but I just laughed, I was about to run downstairs when her smile dropped and she motioned for me to stay.
“ Umm , who is this….. No …. Umm yea she’s right here” Turning to me she handed the phone “ It’s for you”
Taking the phone I placed it on my ear , a deep voice replied “ I see Noah didn’t get the message”
“Who are you and … oh it’s you …what do you want?” I asked, as I finally remembered the phone call from last night.
“I told you already, tell Noah it’s over, the deal is off but I want it all, I played fair, it’s too late. Tell him all his chances are gone” His deep throaty voice sounded into the phone.
“Umm okay, not to sound rude but can’t you just tell him yourself like wouldn’t it be”
I was quickly cut off “Can’t you do this or do I have to make your pretty friend in the pink Pjs do it” My head shot up, alarm noises sounding in my head.
“Blair get away from the window NOW and shut the curtains” She did as she was told whilst sending worried glances my way.
“ It’s too late for that sweetheart” the voice laughed.
“ What do you want!” my voice wavered at the end and I mentally cursed for not seeming stronger.
“ I want the boys… but for now I’ll settle for you sending them this message” The call cut off , I glanced quickly at Blair who was chewing on her nails.
“What was that?”
I groped for an answer “Honestly … I don’t know”
