Message and review please!
Ava sat at the lunch table writing. She was trying to get ahead on her homework so she could have extra time for her to practice on her music. After the whole situation with Billy her father had avoided him. Billy didn't mention it and Ava didn't ask about what he meant. Ava knew something was wrong with him though because he had been acting weird all day.
Billy sat eating his food slowly not paying attention to anything around him. Leah sat at their table. "Hey Ava." She said smiling at her.
"Hi." Ava said quickly. Suddenly it got quiet at their table. Ava looked up unsure. "Is something wrong?" She asked looking around.
"No, why?" Leah answered quickly shrugging. Everyone was starring at Ava waiting for her to say something.
"Did something happen?" Ava asked looking at Leah now. She shrugged. Ava looked at her friends waiting to see if they said anything but they remained silent. "Alright then, I'm just gonna go now." She closed her notebook standing. "I'll see you later." She said looking at them.
Billy looked at Leah unsure. He didn't tell Ava what happened and he didn't want to tell her. He knew it was mistake and he regretted it. He was sure Leah wasn't going to tell her, if she even remembered, but he still worried. He stood up walking after Ava.
She turned facing him. "Did something happen with Leah at the party?" She asked as she slowed down. "I called her earlier and she was acting really strange. Then right now...I don't know." She said unsure.
"I don't know." Billy mumbled shrugging. He looked at the time. It was almost time for their next class.
"I'm gonna go bathroom. I'll see you in class." She said walking into the bathroom. She went into the stall, used the bathroom then came out. She was washing her hands when two girls walked in. One walked into a stall and the other was watching Ava.
"Hey, you're Ava Daniels right?" She asked. "I'm Lily Jenson." She said. "I heard you've been hanging out with Billy Peck."
"What about it?" Ava asked unsure drying her hands.
"Well I went to school with him before, just transferred in about a week ago and I was just wondering if he still...well ya'know deals?" She asked.
"Oh," Ava said shaking her hands. "No he doesn't. Sorry." She answered. "It was nice to meet you though." Ava said walking out and hurrying to class. She walked into the room and Billy was sitting in his seat already. She sat next to him. "So do you know Lily Jenson?" She asked. Billy shook his head. "Well she just asked me if you were dealing." She said.
"Dealing what?" He asked confused. "Never mind." He said realizing what she meant. "Thats weird."
Billy dropped Ava off at the house and then went to work. Ava was in her room working on a song she had begun to write when her doorbell went off. She walked downstairs and opened the door. Johnny was standing there. "What do you want?" She asked.
"Just wanted to make sure your heart wasn't broken." He said walking.
"Why would my heart be broken?" She asked confused.
"I thought Billy was like your boyfriend?" He asked. "Especially since he had your car the other night. Kinda weird for you to let him borrow it so late too. I guess you were just looking out for Leah." He said walking into the kitchen and getting something to drink. "Anyway, so you and Billy over now? Or did you guys never start?" He asked before taking a quick drink.
"I have no idea what you're talking about." Ava said more than confused.
"Oh you didn't hear?" He asked a smile spreading on his face. "Well to be honest I don't know exactly what happened. What I actually saw was Billy go into the bathroom with Leah and they were there for awhile. I heard a lot worse though." He said. Ava felt shocked suddenly. She was confused. Was it a lie? A rumor? Or had Billy just not told her what happened? "I heard that she went down on him from one kid. Then I heard they just made out for awhile but like an hour later that same kid told me she heard they had went all the way and Billy was extremely talented." He said.
"None of thats true." Ava said more trying to convince herself. "Billy isn't that kind of person." She said shrugging simply. It made sense to her. He was different. He had to be different.
"Are you sure?" Johnny asked. "I was kind of happy about it." He shrugged.
"Why would you be happy about it?" Ava asked. He looked away not answering. "Why do you hate Billy so much?" She asked.
"He wears an eye patch!" Johnny yelled. "Does he think thats cool or something?" He asked. "The guys a creep. I don't know why you even started talking to him or how he became your best friend or whatever." He said. "Every ones been wondering why...we've heard crazy stuff about him." He shrugged. "Especially since that new girl came. Lily." He said. "She said Billy stabbed some 13 year kid for drugs."
"Billy didn't stab a 13 year old kid." Ava rolled her eyes. Suddenly she heard the front door open. She froze praying it wasn't her father or mother. She looked at the time. It was 8:30 already. Her mom was at some kind of city meeting and her Dad was still working. Suddenly Billy appeared in the doorway. "Hey you got home earlier than usual." She said smiling at him.
"Yeah I got out earlier, no one shopping today apparently." He shrugged. Billy looked at Johnny. They made eye contact unsure of what to say. "I'm gonna go to my room." Billy said finally speaking. He turned and walked up the stairs.
Johnny turned to Ava his mouth hanging open. "Don't even say anything." She said holding her hand up to him. "I'm not telling you anything about him or anything else. Don't bother." She said firmly.
"You're living with a guy who tried to kill a 13 year old kid?" Johnny asked loudly. "I can't believe this. The guys a murdering nympho!" He yelled.
"Murdering nympho?" Ava asked almost laughing.
"Okay that was dramatic." Johnny laughed. He cleared his throat. "I'm serious though, just be careful around him. People talk for a reason. There must be some truth to it, just think about it." He said. "I worry about you." He said softly.
"Alright, time for you to leave." Ava said walking towards the front door. She turned opening the door for him. "I'll see you at school eventually." She smiled. "And seriously, you don't have to worry. I promise." Ava said reassuring him. He nodded and then walked out. Ava walked upstairs and went into her room. She was sitting on her bed reorganizing her music on her iPod when she felt the bed shift. Her eyes lifted up from the computer screen. She saw Billy sitting there. "Hey, is something wrong?" She asked unsure.
"Not really." Billy shrugged. "Why was Johnny here?" He asked laying across the bottom of the bed.
"He was making sure I was okay." Billy looked confused. "Well apparently he thought you were my boyfriend or something."
"Why would you not be okay?" He asked.
"Some rumors going around school that you and Leah..." Ava looked at him unsure whether she should say it. He took a deep breath looking at her and she knew instantly there was some truth to what Johnny said. "What happened?" She asked shutting her laptop. She felt her stomach turning hoping it wasn't what she thought. Ava couldn't handle that again. "Please don't lie." She begged.
Billy starred at her for awhile before he spoke. "She kissed me." He said. "And I told her to stop but she wouldn't listen, she was drunk. She threw herself onto me and kissed me again and I kissed her back. I know it was wrong but that whole thing with Lee had just happened and I was stressed out slightly but that was it. I kissed her back for all of maybe 10 seconds before realizing what really was happening, then i left." He said hoping she would believe him.
Ava starred at him unsure whether to believe him. She wanted more than anything for him to say nothing happened but he didn't. He told her the truth so she had to believe him. She reached over rubbing his cheek softly. He hadn't shaved that morning and it was a little rough. She leaned over and kissed his forehead softly.
