"Who they heck do you think you are?! You can't just try to violate a woman! Especially one who is as nice and gorgeous as this one!" Mouth said. Mouth blushed as he realized what he just said.

"Who do you think you are talking to, loser?" the boy asked. Mouth threw a punch. He knocked the guy square in the face.

"Stay away from her!" Mouth said as he pulled Rachel outside.

"Thanks," Rachel said as she got off his handle bars.

"He is the reason why boys have reputations of being scum!" Mouth said angered.

"The truth is, I called you because I knew you would take care of me!" Rachel said as she kissed him. Mouth froze. Rachel pulled away and walked into her house. She shut the door. She just kissed Mouth! Oh yeah, there went her reputation!


Rachel walked to school, head up high. She hadn't seen Brooke and she was eager to greet her buddy. Rachel scanned the halls for Brooke. She stopped as she saw her next to her locker, and boy did she look pissed!

"Hey, Brooke," Rachel said.

"Hello, traitor, I mean, Rachel," Brooke returned the greeting.

"What?" Rachel asked.

"So, Rachel, where were you after the party?" Brooke asked as she moseyed over to Rachel. Rachel scoffed. Brooke was acting like her mother.

"I went home," Rachel said.

"Oh, so you didn't go home with that dweeb?" Brooke asked glancing at Mouth. Rachel's eyes widened.

"What?" Rachel asked.

"You went home with that loser after the party, right?" Brooke said.

"Ugh, no," Rachel lied.

"Really, so, you didn't go home with that nerd?" Brooke said as she eyed Rachel suspiciously.

"His name is Mouth, and no, I didn't go home with him," Rachel said putting on a straight face.

"Really? Well, how come Bevin saw you kiss him?" Brooke asked. Brooke placed her hands on her hips/.

"What-"

"Save it Rachel, Bevin has a photo," Brooke snapped.

"It's called Photoshop!" Rachel said. Mouth walked over to them.

"Damn it, Rachel. You lied to me about helping your family. Plus, how could you kiss this loser?!" Brooke hissed. Everyone in the hallway turned their attention to Brooke and Rachel. Rachel turned red.

"Brooke, it was an accident! I needed someone to kiss and he was just there!" Rachel lied. She kissed Mouth because she felt something for him. Wow, had Rachel fallen.

"So, it was an accident and meant nothing?!" Mouth said raged. Rachel looked between Mouth and Brooke.

"Yes," Rachel said softly, glancing at her feet. She painfully watched as Mouth ran off.

"I can't believe you!" Brooke said as she turned around. Rachel grabbed her arm and stopped her.

"Brooke, please, I'm sorry," Rachel said. Tears formed in her eyes.

"Yeah, well, so am I," Brooke said as she too, had tears in her eyes.

"What are you saying?" Rachel asked.

"You lied to me. I'm supposed to be your best friend!" Brooke stormed off. Rachel looked around at all the accusing faces. Why did this feel like a bad break up? Oh, wait, that's right, Brooke and her were no longer friends.

"What?!" Rachel hissed as she rushed to the bathroom. There she sat, broken, lonely, and torn. Why, just why, did she have to lie to her? Brooke was her best friend. Oh, and Mouth, why lie to him? Rachel truly did like him but why was it so hard to admit it? There Rachel sat, the broken and the lonely.
