Author's Note:
Hey All You Dedicated Reader! Thank you so much for reading and reviewing. I've been wanting to write a poem like his about what was going through Noelle Lange's head the night she found out about what Reed Brennan and Dash McCaftrey did at the Legacy! ENJOY!
~Love From A Lange~
REGRET
Croton, Pennsylvania.
That was the new girl's hometown.
Easton knew nothing about her.
But I did.
And that was only because of my last name.
Lange.
One the new girl would come to regret.
The moment she caught Pearson's spiral I knew there'd be drama.
Thomas was Ariana's.
Even I knew that.
Reed apparently didn't.
Reed Brennan.
I made her my project.
Ariana made her, her enemy.
I didn't want to choose sides.
So I just focused on being kind.
For once.
I laughed at how sweet I could be when I wanted to be.
She was in.
A Billings Girl.
Just like the rest of us.
We got closer to each other.
Ariana didn't seem to mind anymore.
Half the time she was flipping pages in a book.
Jane Austen seemed to be her favorite.
Reed and I bonded through soccer.
We bonded through lunch hour at table eighteen.
Amid the immature comments from "stud-ly" Gage Coolidge.
We were so close.
Practically sisters.
But all that changed.
In the blink of an eye.
The minute the Legacy was over.
I didn't know what happened.
I just had a feeling something did.
Reed spent more time on her laptop than with me.
I thought it was just regular family crap.
I sure as hell was wrong.
For once.
It wasn't until the Billings Fundraiser till I found out.
That whore.
She'd done Thomas.
She'd done Josh.
And she practically did Dash.
That video was all I needed.
I wanted her gone.
Out.
Dead.
Whatever got her out of my life.
Dash was mine.
The whole fucking world knew that.
Except Reed.
The image shattered my heart.
Disturbed my mind.
Her breasts exposed.
His toned chest visible.
Her lips and body on top of his.
Things like that didn't happen to a Lange.
Dash was drugged.
I didn't care if she was either.
He'd never cheat with a slut like her.
Reed was going down.
She had to.
Humility overcame humanity.
I wanted her gone.
I now knew how Ariana felt.
And I just shrugged if off.
Like it was no big deal.
I'd apologize to her later for that.
The new girl wanted in with us.
That Glass Licker her.
She was going to get her wish.
I had promised her that much.
But she was going to get it over her dead body.
Maybe they'd burry her next to Pearson.
The irony was too sadistic though.
I thought I'd trusted her.
But that showed me even friends stab each other in the back.
Ariana would never do that.
She'd stab me in the front so I'd know.
Glass Licker was going to regret ever coming to Easton.
I'd make sure of that.
I mean isn't that what sisters are for?
