?Elsa?
I turned to go when Kyle held me back then he went on his knees. I noticed students taking pictures and whispering. I tried to remove my hand but he held me still.
“Elsa Reyes. Will you go on a date with me?”. He shouted and students gasped.
Students were chanting ‘say yes’ ‘say yes’.
“Like I said before, a big no”. I replied.
He stood up. “No?”.
Tristan came over. “What really is this guy problem?”.
Kyle crossed his arms. “And you are?”.
“Come on, Elsie. Lets go”. Tristan dragged me away glaring at Kyle.
We got to where my car was and Tristan parked all the flowers in a bunch.
“What are you doing?”. I ask surprised.
He went over and threw the flowers on Kyle. I widened my eyes in surprise.
“What the fvck!!”. Beverly whispered.
Tristan came back. “Elsie get in the car and drive”.
I quickly unlocked the car as we entered and I started the engine as I drove off.
“Tristan, what was that stunt you pulled back there?”. Beverly shouted.
“Well Elsie couldn’t do it herself so I helped her”.
I scoffed. “Helped me? More like put me into more trouble, do you know who you did that to?”.
“Thats not my problem at least he won’t pester you again”. Tristan replied.
I didn’t respond as I drove faster to Beverly’s house. I finally got there and parked by a curb as usual.
We got down from the car going to the main door, Beverly opened it and I fumed angrily as I went upstairs.
I entered my room and dropped my backpack sitting on the bed.
“You know you shouldn’t be angry at him”.
I looked up to see Beverly. “Did you see what he did to Kyle?”.
She shrugged. “So, Kyle deserves some disgrace”.
“But then I’m always the one to be targeted, because I’m sure that tomorrow something terrible will happen to me”.
“Well look at the bright side at least Kyle got rejected and that was hilarious”.
I chuckled softly. “Yeah maybe you are right, he wasn’t even expecting it but what if he decides to humiliate me back”.
“Then your prince charming will save you just like he always does”.
I tapped her playfully. “Stop it”.
She sat on my bed. “So tell me more about Bryan”.
“Beverly, first there’s nothing going on between me and Bryan”.
“Say it till you believe it”.
“Besides we are not even that close, the only thing that has happened is a hug”. I told her.
She wiggled her eyebrows. “Oh and how was the hug? Was it breathtaking?”.
My cheeks flushed. “Maybe it lasted for some minutes”.
“Elsa, you have to make Bryan yours before some other girl takes him away”.
“Speaking of another girl, do you know Gabriella?”. I asked.
She paused. “That girl you sat with at lunch yesterday?”.
I nodded. “Yeah do you know her?”.
She sighed. “I do know she dated Kyle for a while and then she became one of Sapphire’s victim”.
“Oh but do you know why?”. I asked curious.
“Why are you asking? Is this related to Bryan?”.
“Actually__”.
The door opened and Tristan came in.
“Cant you knock?”.
Beverly nudged me. “Don’t mind her, what she means is come in”. She said and left.
Tristan came over. “Elsie”.
I fell back on the bed. “What do you want?”.
“Are you still annoyed with what I did?”.
I sat up. “Of course, you have no idea what you did. You literally just crossed Kyle”.
He furrowed his eyebrows. “Kyle? As in, the same Kyle Vegas? Your stupid Childhood Crush?”.
I frowned. “Yes and having a crush on him is not stupid”.
He crossed his arms. “If you have a crush on him then why did you say no?”.
I sighed. “Its kinda complicated”.
“You can tell me”. He sat on the bed with me.
“I was bullied today and he caused it, his girlfriend made a joke out of me which really hurt me after all it was his fault”. I explained. “And to top it all, i’m sure she still has more in store for me if I don’t stay away from Kyle”.
“Then stay away from him, forget about the stupid crush”. He said softly.
I fell back on the bed. “Its not that easy to stay away especially when that particular stupid crush wont just leave me alone and let me be”.
“Your life is always complicated”. He teased.
I chuckled. “What about you? How’s your life going?”.
“Pretty well, everything’s going good. I’m every boy’s friend, girls love me and thats it”.
“Wow!! My brother is Mr. Popular”. I teased him.
“But I have a little problem, is Victoria”.
I was surprised. “Victoria? Whats wrong?”.
“She’s not in my circle at all”. He admitted.
“And what does that mean?”. I asked him.
“Well for starters, I’m her only friend at school and she’s an introvert and no one talks to her because they think she’s a weirdo”. He explained.
“But you like her right?”.
“Yeah of course I do, she’s the most fun person I’ve ever been with”. He said truthfully.
“Just don’t stress out yourself, go refresh yourself and then we go out like we used to do”. I told him.
“Has mom called?”.
I shook my head. “Nope, she’s probably busy”.
“Is she still on the court case?”.
I nodded. “Well Yeah the lawyers are still working on it”.
He sat up. “But does Dad have to go to jail? Did he really hurt you that bad?”.
“Just go”.
He hugged me for a while before walking out of the room. I stood up going to the door and locked it. I went to my bed and flopped on it immediately.
Tristan just reminded me of everything, reminded me of how disgusting and terrible my Dad was, my tears fell as I hugged my pillow. I tried to hold the tears but it kept rolling down.
What Tristan asked flashed through my head. ‘Did he really hurt you that bad?’.
I sniffed as the tears rolled faster. Yes Tristan, he did, he really hurt me.
?Sapphire?
I walked to Kyle’s room and I could hear shouts. I pushed the door open and he was there obviously angry while Mason watched him.
“Kyle”. I called softly.
He didn’t respond, he just gripped his phone tightly as he frowned.
“Mason, find a way to delete those videos”. He ordered.
Mason nodded and left.
“Kyle baby”.
I dropped my bag and went over pushing him on the bed as I straddled him.
“I’m not in the mood, Sapphire”.
I moved my bu.tt on him but he pushed me away.
I gasped as I stood up. “Why the heck are you angry anyway?”.
“Didn’t you see what happened earlier at school?”. He asked furiously.
I crossed my arms. “So?”.
“Sapphire, its all over the school blog how Elsa rejected me of all people”.
“Well of course she would, she likes Bryan”. I told him.
He looked at me. “Bryan? How do you know that?”.
“Apparently they were hugging each other when classes were going on so that means they both skipped classes to be together”.
He slammed his hand on the table angrily.
“Kyle”. I shouted.
“This can not be happening”. He kept on hitting the table.
“Okay why do you suddenly care?”.
“I cant let Elsa be with Bryan”.
“Why? Huh? Do you like her?”. I asked curious.
“Its none of your business”.
I scoffed. “Seriously? Kyle, what am I really to you?”.
“This is not the time”.
“Why are you getting so worked up over that Elsa girl when I’m standing beside you”.
“And who are you?”.
I rubbed his chest. “Kyle baby, we are together”.
He removed my hands. “We are not dating, Sapphire, i’ve told you that countless times”.
“I thought I was your girlfriend, Kyle I gave you my v!rginity”. I yelled at him.
“Which I never asked you for”. He replied.
“Really Kyle? How cruel can you be?”.
He faced me. “I can never date someone like you at least not a fvcking wh0re”.
I gasped. “You fvcking a$shole”.
“I don’t have the time to exchange words with you”. He took his phone and left.
I sat down slowly on the bed as I cried, i thought Kyle and I had something.
This is all your fault, Elsa Reyes, Kyle just left me just because of you. I promise you that I’ll make your life a living hell.
I took my phone and dialed his number, he picked up after the first ring.
I sniffed. “I need your help”.
.
?Elsa?
I woke up groggily, i checked the time on my phone, i slept for like only 40 minutes.
I stood up and went to the bathroom to freshen up then I came back to the room searching for clothes. I wore black shorts and a black crop top with white sneakers.
I was brushing my hair when i heard someone hit the door. I opened the door and Tristan entered rubbing his face.
He frowned. “Why the heck did you lock your door?”.
“For privacy, duh”.
He rolled his eyes. “I’ve got a big problem”.
I sighed. “What is it now?”.
“Victoria is here downstairs like in this house”.
“So?”.
“I freaked out and ran upstairs to your room because that was the first thing I could think of”. He said pacing around.
“You left her alone there?”. I shrieked.
“What?! No, Beverly is there”.
“Well Tristan, you are a man so you have to handle that problem yourself”. I told him.
“Come on, Elsie, you gotta help me. I like Victoria, i don’t wanna mess this up”. He pleaded.
I rolled my eyes. “You need to deal with stuffs like that by yourself”.
He crossed his arms. “Well Bryan is downstairs as well”.
“Oh really? You are just lying”.
“Go see for yourself”.
I opened the door and walked through the hallway, i went to the stairs and proceeded to go down when I heard his voice. I was surprised to see Bryan with Beverly.
I quickly ran back to my room without them seeing me. I went in and met Tristan on my bed smirking.
“Bryan is downstairs”.
He crossed his arms. “Elsie, you are a woman so you have to handle that yourself”.
“Fvck you”.
