Answering a few things that may not be clear... Zander and Stevie are together will be together and no, this is not Zacy. This story is mostly centering on Kacy, but Zander and Stevie are a big part obviously. Any questions ask for I can make certain everything is clear.

Kacy slowly cracked the bathroom door open before quickly sliding through the gap she had created and darting down the hall into her room. She closed and locked her door behind her. She looked around her messy room her shoulders sagging.

She looked towards the glowing clock on her nightstand reading the time. 6:15 am. She began cleaning up her room slowly, making everything perfect again. She looked at her clock again 7:30 am. It was time to get ready for school. She reached for her closet opening it only to pause in her attempts at finding something to wear.

She realized she really didn't wanna go to school. Setting one foot in this place would be too much to handle. The thought of seeing Zander and Stevie had her stomach churning, but not going to school wasn't an option. It would only make her mother angrier.

Kacy had an over-whelming urge to call her dad. She quickly looked around for her phone finding it under her bed, she was only half surprised to find she had missed multiple calls from Stevie and Zander, even Nelson and Kevin had called a few times. She ignored those and dialed her dad's number, after a few rings she got voicemail.

Completely defeated the girl pulled on something she hoped matched and grabbed her bag. She hadn't bothered even looking into a mirror. Her mom was already mad at her, being less than perfect wouldn't make it any worse.

Her hand shook as she opened her bedroom door and took a step out into the hall. She began a slow careful decent. Her stomach growled and she contemplated getting a breakfast bar but came to the choice that it wasn't really worth it.

As soon as she entered school Molly and her group were on her. Kacy let out a tired breath and didn't even bother looking at her ex-friend.

"Kacy, this is bad even for you." The brunette commented her eyes swiping Kacy in a way that reminded her of her mother. Full of judgment and mockery, Kacy flinched.

"I'm not in the mood, Molly. I mean it."

She tried to walk by the girl but a few of the nameless girl's blocked her. "What?" Molly asked, "Poor Kacy still sad about her boyfriend fucking her best friend? If you weren't oblivious to everything going on around you, you would have noticed months ago. Everyone else had already."

Kacy had no comeback for that and something on the inside of her broke, and it hurt. Her eyes darted around for an escape. The consequences of skipping school paled against going through this all day.

She turned around to leave but froze as her eyes took in who was coming into school behind her. Stevie noticed her too and instantly a look of guilt came over her already worried features.

"Kacy…"

Kacy felt bawl rise in her throat, and the cold hands of sadness and betrayal squeeze at her gut. As quick as she could the girl tore by Stevie and barely made it outside before completely empting her stomach in the grass. She wiped her mouth and gagged.

She could hear Stevie behind her.

"Kacy I…"

The heartbroken girl turned on her once friend. "What is it? What can you say?" Though her words were laced with sarcasm, she truly wanted to hear Stevie's explanation.

"It… It was a mistake. We never wanted to hurt you, Kacy."

"It's sort of too late." Her words were more to herself then Stevie. "I have to go…" She turned around and took a few steps away from her high school. She realized her only other place to go was home.

By lunch the long school day had taken its toll on Kacy. She hadn't gotten much sleep in the bathroom last night and avoiding people was a lot harder then she thought. Molly continued with her snide comments, and even though she tried to avoid it her eyes always landed of Gravity Five – Four now. even though she hadn't officially dropped the group. It was obvious it wouldn't work out now.

Zander and Stevie tried to act as if they weren't actually together. They sat apart from each other, and always had Nelson and Kevin in-between them. Though it was obvious something was going on, they kept giving each other side glances and would brush up against each other when they thought no one was watching.

Kacy felt completely sick. Had it been this way when she was together with Zander? She felt really stupid, and wondered how she had missed it. Oh, that's right I'm a self-centered idiot. It wasn't abnormal for her to degrade herself, it hadn't happened in a while though.

Her fingers twisted around her hair and she tugged lightly, her eyes falling on her untouched burrito. Her stomach growled telling her it craved food, but no movements were made to go for the food. She heard someone take a seat beside her making her look up.

Nelson and Kevin were grinning at her nervously. "Hey Kacy," Kevin spoke first.

Kacy frowned. "Hi…" She got on her feet and began walking away. They had been sent over for sure and she wanted to be alone.

"Kacy," her name was called loud enough to get mostly everyone's attention. She had no other choice and stopped. She refused to turn and face Zander. "Can we talk?"

"I can't…" was her honest reply. She continued walking heading someplace not home, but anyplace but at home and school.
