Chapter 6

I felt like I was going crazy, holding in the secret about what I found in Damien's room. So, I called Daphne, and soon enough, we were in her room. As I poured out the details of what had happened, her eyes widened in shock.

"Did you tell Damien about this?" she asked, gripping my hands tightly.

"Not yet. He bolted out of the room because he was angry at me."

"Jerk! You told him to stop, and he got angry? And now you found a negative pregnancy test on his desk? There's definitely something going on. You should confront him about it, Katrina."

I nodded, wiping away my tears. "I will."

"Hush, don't cry now. It'll make you ugly." We both burst into laughter, the tension easing just a bit.

To cheer me up, Daphne invited me to a party. She didn't want me moping in her room all night over a boy. When we arrived, I spotted Damien and Caleb, holding their red cups, drinking and laughing at some joke their friend had just told. My heart clenched, but I straightened up, ready to face him.
