Bakersville High School

“What’s going on?” Emily asked Julie as they walked to their next class.

She knew the feeling all too well, she was being talked about. It hadn’t happened in such a long time and she couldn’t help but wonder what this was about. She couldn’t pinpoint anything that had happened in the recent past that warranted such behavior from the rest of the school.

“I don’t know,” Julie said, looking around, throwing mean looks here and there to discourage all the people that were whispering amongst themselves and laughing.

It worked for the most part and they were able to make it to class. Emily couldn’t focus on her class. Her mind was going around in circles. She was scared, what was this about? Had she done something? Said something? Was it an outfit she had worn? Was it that day’s outfit?

She looked down at herself- she hadn’t worn anything out of her usual attire. She couldn’t place a finger on why she was the topic of discussion yet again and it bothered her. It was

    EMILY***“It’s Tiffany, isn’t it?” Harry asked as I paced around his room.I was so anxious I was afraid that I would bite my whole nail off. He had caught me. He had caught on already and if he had Gabriel wasn’t too far behind. He wasn’t like me. He didn’t linger in his emotions for too long. He would snap out of it and he would start to think about things and he would realize that it was Tiffany as well.It didn’t matter that he didn’t know who she was, as long as he could discover that the article was written by the person behind the texts. That already put me in so much trouble. He knew I knew who the person was and that I had used them to send my own threatening texts to him.I could already picture him coming up with the scenario I'd come up with in the shower. It was just a matter of time before I was caught. What was I supposed to say? What would I do? How would it affect the reconciliation that we had come to? Would we go back to being sworn enemies? I was screwed.“Yes, it

    GABRIEL***“It has to be them, I know it,” I said, pacing around my room.I was excited. Now that I had gotten over all the emotions that had come with being exposed, it had come easily to me. Of course, it was them. This had to be what they had threatened to expose me for. They were the only ones with a motive.I just needed to find out who they were and hopefully get to have a conversation with them. Maybe reaching some sort of agreement would make them delete the post or write a new one saying I had apologized. I had texted Harry immediately after I had found that out and then I had called Emily.She knew who the person was. Hadn’t she worked together with them before we agreed to stop the whole thing? She just needed to tell me who she was and I would be well on my way to rebuilding what I had broken myself. I was feeling hopeful. I hoped she would listen and at least agree to make another post if she didn’t agree to take down the other one.I was realizing that I was going to ha

    EMILY***“Thanks for buying time,” I said to Harry as we walked together to our rooms.“I just hope it will be enough for us to find a way to stop Tiffany before she makes another post,” he said, “and you’re welcome.”I had managed to successfully lie to Gabriel about knowing who the person behind the texts was and Harry had helped by playing along, by being quiet. It had hurt me to see him look so defeated because he had really hoped that he was onto something, but I comforted myself by telling myself that this was for his good.“I’ll go to her and buy some time on her side as well as you find out about the school rules,” I said when we got to the door of my room.“That’s a great idea,” Harry said, “let me go and find out right now. I will let you know what I find out,” he added as he walked away.I watched him walk away before I got into my room. Nila was not in. I looked over at my table and there was a pile of books waiting for me to open them, but I knew I wouldn't be able to fo

    GABRIEL***It was too bad that Emily hadn’t interacted directly with the person who was sending those texts out to us. I had been discouraged, but I wouldn't let that stop me. Harry wouldn’t let that stop me. He had been such an encouragement this whole time and I wasn't going to let him down by giving up easily.We would get to the bottom of things and everything would be okay just like he said it would. I didn’t believe it for myself, but I did for his sake. He was convinced that things would work out and I hoped they would. I couldn’t help but think about the timing of what had happened. It had happened just after I had talked to Emily, after our kiss.It was just after I had told her that I didn't want to play games any more after she had agreed. Could that be what caused the whole thing to go up in flames? Could the person have misunderstood her reason for stopping as Emily betrayed her? Was that why they did it? Out of anger? Was it a warning to Emily in a way that she was next

    Bakersville High School“Did you hear?” someone asked another.Emily, who was almost leaving the bathroom stall, stopped in her tracks. Was she finally going to catch the person who had told the whole school that she was dating Gabriel?It had been a week since the rumor started, a week since she and Gabriel had had the argument. She had tried every single way to find out who had spread that rumor but she had come up short. None of her sources were proving useful. She and Gabriel hadn’t talked in that time. He hadn’t even come to her house to sleep. A part of her was worried for him. Had she been staying at home with his parents arguing, just because he couldn’t admit that he was the one who had told someone about them dating? Had he been safe at that time?Had he found somewhere else to sleep? She was angry at him but she was also worried about his well-being. Theirs was a complicated relationship, where they cared for each other but they also couldn’t stand each other. Or maybe she

    EMILY***“I wanted to let you have a read through the article before I posted it,” Tiffany said as she walked after me into her room.“Isn’t it one of the ones you already showed me?” I asked, suddenly feeling sick.I didn’t know if I could read through those stories again. They made me feel guilty, they made me feel bad and they made me feel confused. I was a victim, just like them, the biggest one in fact, yet it was so hard for me to be on their side. I was experiencing so many conflicting feelings. I was torn. “It is, but I wanted you to read it, see if it was okay, see if it would cause enough damage,” she said as she led me to her desk her laptop was open.I sat on her desk chair and read through it. I only read through a few lines before I turned to look at her.“Is all of this true?” I asked, my heart thumping in my chest.“Not really. The person gave me their story and gave me the liberty to change it up a little so that it had the desired effect,” she said, smiling.“So, y

    GABRIEL***“I texted the person,” Emily said, “and I think I know how we can get them.”I felt my heart thump in my chest. I had so many questions. Had she reached out to them because of me? Had she risked being exposed as a result? I was worried for her. She didn’t have to do what she had done just for me.This was clearly a dangerous person who could not be treated lightly or jokingly. If anything happened to Emily because of me I wouldn’t be able to handle it. It made me wonder why I hadn’t thought of it first.“But first, I need you to confirm the details of what they said,” Emily said as she turned to face me, “is everything they said true?”Everyone in the room turned to face me. We were in my room with Harry and Harper. She wanted to come to the next meeting we had to see if she could help in some way. I was afraid that things would become awkward but so far they had not. I hoped they stayed that way until we got to the bottom of things.“I don’t even remember the person,” I s

    EMILY***“Tiffany and I used to date,” Harry said, “and everything was going well for the first few months of our relationship. I won’t lie and say that it hadn't been great when it had, at the beginning. She was incredibly kind, smart, and funny. I had just become the student body president and everything was perfect. I felt like I was on top of the world and like I was unstoppable. With her by my side, I felt like there was nothing I couldn’t do, nothing I couldn’t achieve. But it didn’t last long. Things started happening to us.”“Things like what?” I asked.“Rumors started going around about me. There was a new story every day, about an incident, about how I had treated the workers at the school cafe, about interactions that I had had with fellow students. They all painted me in a bad light. According to the rumors I was rude and inconsiderate. I was selfish and uptight and I had no respect for people. I reasoned at first that they were just mindless rumors that were being spread

    EMILY***"You guys knew about it, didn’t you?" I asked Nila and Julie who were suddenly awfully quiet when Gabriel walked in."Who, me? I have no idea what you're talking about?" Nila asked while holding her hands to her chest in mock surprise.We all laughed."I won't lie and say I didn't know. In fact, I had a meeting with him to make sure he had changed for good," Julie said.She was always so intense. I loved it."Thanks for looking out for me," I said to her."You know I got you. Always," she said.

    GABRIEL***"We're home," Mom said as she opened the door to our house.She dumped her bag onto the living room floor and went around every room as if she was announcing her presence. I shook my head. I knew she had forgotten all about it and so I picked it up and carried it to her room before I went to mine.It felt good to be back. It had been a great year, a year I would never forget but being home felt great. It felt like a sigh of relief. I had made it back. I had done it. My mother and I had chosen to relocate temporarily because it felt like a good idea to just start over in a place that was unplugged and away from real life and all the responsibilities that real life demanded from us.It had been healing to be in a place where no one kn

Besides, today was a special day for someone special to me and I needed to look the part.“Okay, I'm ready,” I said as I turned to face Nila, “how do I look?” I asked.“You look.. Stunning,” she said, “you look really great.”“Thank you, you do too,” I said to her and she curtsied and smiled.

    THE END(Bakersville High school)“Emily doesn’t want to see you right now,” Terry said to Gabriel and he could tell by the tone of her voice that she didn’t want to see him too.He still didn’t know what he had done. Was this still about the stupid argument they had had that past weekend? He wanted to believe that that was what it was but something felt incredibly off.Something very bad had happened but he had no idea what it was and he had no way of finding out either because Emily wouldn’t see him. She wouldn’t pick up his calls or answer his texts either.

    EMILY***“See you on the weekend,” Mom said as she dropped me off in the parking lot.“See you,” I said as I got out of the car. I watched her drive off before I walked to my dorm room.I had a new roommate because it was part of the school rules to change roommates at the beginning of every academic year. Nila and I had hoped and prayed that fate would let us meet again as roommates but that hadn’t been the case.It almost didn’t matter, though, because we remained good friends who were always together around the school. It had been months since the school year started. In fact, it was closer to the end now than it was in the beginning. The semester in which Gabriel felt like it was ages ago- it was almost

I shouldn’t have dated you when I knew I had so much baggage. I only hope that you’ll find someone who will be easy to love, someone who won’t cause you as much heartbreak and pain as I have,” I said.“I’m sorry too, to you as well as to Emily. I shouldn’t have let my insecurities control me.”“I shouldn’t have pu

My parents had gotten wind of the news and they had come to pick me up in the evening after I talked to Harry. Final exams were ongoing, and I had been against the idea of being at home but my parents had insisted.I had appreciated the rest and being away from what had happened for the first few days, but now I wanted to go back to school.
