Mariela's POV

"We need to talk. " I growl.
"Uh oh. Homeboys in trouble. " Dean says as him and aniyah walk to their lockers. I pull Jamal to a secluded area behind the stairs.
"Oh wanna get it in before class huh? " He tries to pull me in but I push him back.
"No. So do you have something to tell me? "
"No."
"Are you sure about that? "
"Yes."
"You're lying. "
"How? "
"So you haven't done anything? "
"Hell no. You can't say I did something when I didn't do anything. "
"You didn't do anything? "
"No. What did I do? "
"That's what I'm asking you. What did you do? "
"What did I do tell me? "
"No I know what you did. I want you to confess"
"I didn't do anything. " He runs his hand down his face.
"I'm giving you this one chance to tell me what you did. "
"I didn't do anything. What the hell are you talking about? "
"Are you sure you didn't do anything? "
"Yes."
"So you you weren't talking to no girls?"
"No! What the fuck?  Hell no. "
"Babe! Stop lying! "
"Oh hell no your lying! What girls? "
"No you tell me. You have to tell me because I already know. " I'm pissed on the outside but I'm laughing on the inside.
" I didn't talk to no girl your trippin. "
"This is going to get worse if you don't tell me the truth. "
"What truth. There's no truth to this. "
"Dude."
"The truth is I wasn't with no girl. " I never said he was with a girl. I said he talked to a girl. He just sold himself out.
"Who did you meet with when you went to the college. "
"You saw who picked me up. My brother picked me up."
"Yea but he probably took someone else. Who'd he take? "
"He didn't take no one. "
"Who'd you pick up? "The bell rings. We ignore it.
"We picked up my homie. "
"Who did you pick up!? "
"My homie! "
"Don't lie to me! "
"Babe you're trippin bad. "
"So you didn't see nobody over there? "
"I seen hella people. "
"Ok but you didn't see no girls. "
"No."
"You're lying Jamal! " I shout.
"Shh. No I'm not. What am I lying about. I wasn't with no girls. " He tries to shush me.
"Ok. Ok. We'll see. " I take out my phone and dial Ashley's number. I hope she's not in a class. The halls are deserted but I hear footsteps coming in out direction.
"Who are you calling? "
"I'm calling Ashley. I know you were with her last night. You lied to me. " I move around him and walk to my locker. I almost run into someone. I look up and see Camden Grey. The popular rich bad boy. Ugh he disgusts me. He smirks down at me. I roll my eyes and walk around him.
"Babe! Don't call her. " I hear Jamal from behind me. I stop at my locker and open it just as she answers.
"Hey girl. I'm so sor-" I cur her off.
"Wait. I'm putting you on speaker. "
"Ok. I just don't want you to be mad at me. " I look at Jamal.
"Were you with Jamal last night? "
"Yea. I seen him with his brother and we stated talking. "
"Did he ever mention that we were back together.? " Janal's face pales.
"No. Otherwise I wouldn't have even talked to him. "
"She's lying. I didn't talk to her la-" I cover his mouth with my hand.
"Did you sleep with him last night? "
"Yes. But our friendship comes first. You know that Mariiela." I look at Jamal.
"Thanks ash. I'll call you later. " She hangs up.
"Babe." He tried to reach for me but I step back.
"We're done Jamal. For real this time. I'm over it. I should've known all along. "
"No babe. Stop I'll change." I roll my eyes as I grab my books and shove them into my bag.
"You won't change. You always say you will. I crumble and take you back when I know it's going to be an endless cycle of lies and you cheating. "
"I'm not lying this time. "
"What's worse this time is that it was my friend. I know she's your ex but she's my friend. My sisters best friend. My best friends sister. It's funny how you thought that I wouldn't find out. " He grabs my arm.
"Mariela."
"No. I'm done with you. " I turn and walk to class.
    
               **********

I sit at the circular table across from themDean and adjacent from Aniyah. I set my bag down on the floor and look at both of them.
"So.. " I trail off. It's awkward because they're mad at me because I'm not pissed at Ashley.
"I just don't get why you're not pissed. She slept with your boyfriend. " Aniyah says.
"I told you why. I can't be mad at every girl he slept with. Or sextedfor that matter. If I got his phone there would be tons of girls that he talked to. "
"Go get his phone. " I eat some of my lunch.
"Meet me at my locker in 5 minutes. He'll come if he sees me keave alone. " They nod. I stand and grab my stuff. I dump my tray  and leave the cafeteria. I go to my locker and sure enough he comes up behind me. He snakes his arms around my waist as I open my locker. He kisses a trail from my neck to the side of my lips. He hesitates before crashes his lips onto mine. I let home kiss me for a minutes. I pull away.
"Stop." I whisper.
"Why? "
"You cheated. " I say and back away from him.
"No I didn't. "
"Let me see your phone then. " He stops then hands me his phone.
"What's the password? "
"3920" He answers. I raise an eyebrow. For a guy who cheats I'm surprised he remember the day we started dating. But then again he has it as his password. He kids had to remember. I roll my eyes and unlock it. I tap on his messages and immediately my eyes start to water. Hundreds of messages to different girls. I randomly tap on one that says Alice. I scroll theough. A tear drops. Nudes. Addresses. Days when they can meet. Heart emojis. I love yous. I see Aniyah and Dean.
"See. Tons of girls. " I show them his phone. They grab it. Jamal doesn't do anything cause he knows that he was caught again.
"What?! " Aniyah glares at him.
'The most ironic thing is his password is 3920."i wipe my tears.
"The day you guys started dating. " Dean says. I nod.
"He's gonna have to change that. " Aniyah tosses his phone at him. I can't stand to be near him anymore.
"I can't. " I say. I shake my head, slam my locker shut and turn to walk away.
"Mari! Where are you going? " Aniyah yells.
"Somewhere." I say. I go to the end of the hallway to the nearest staircase and run up the stairs to the third floor. The preforming arts floor. There's no one up here during lunch. I walk down and turn the corner to the east hallway. I go down and see if the dance studios door is open and it is. I go in and go to the girls locker room. I turn on the light then walk down to the row of lockers where I have my dance stuff. Yes I am in the school dance class. Actually in order for you to graduate you have to take a preforming arts class during your freshmen year. I took dance and have been taking it ever since. I open the locker and change into my spanks and a sports bra. I love my stuff up then exit the locker room. I connect my phone to the Bluetooth speakers then chose a song. After that I let my body take over.
