Chapter 7: Betrayed?
After lunch, everyone came back to class. Jordan was sitting next to Jimmy
in homeroom.
"What is your problem with Marco? So what if he's gay? He is still the same
person as we knew him before," said Jimmy.
"How would you feel if Marco started checking you out?" Jordan asked.
"Trust me, I highly doubt that Marco will ever like you," said Jimmy.
"Shut up. Cassie likes me."
"Not as much after what you did to Marco."
"I don't think Cassie should be hanging with Marco anyway," said Jordan.
"You can't tell her who to be friends with," said Jimmy. "Or else you're
just making her into someone she's not, you."
"You need to shut the freak up!" Jordan screamed.
He then got up and punched Jimmy. Jimmy was about to punch him too, but Mr.
Simpson came in.
"Is everything okay, boys?" Mr. Simpson asked.
"Uh, yeah," said Jordan.
"Jordan knows what's best for him," said Jimmy.
The bell rang for the next period, English with Ms. Kwan.
"Alright class, I left an assignment for you on the board. I'll be right
back," said Ms. Kwan. Everyone started the assignment. Cassie was sitting
next to Marco.
"Marco, are you okay?" Cassie asked.
"Why do you care?" Marco asked.
"Because you're my friend," said Cassie.
"You're the one who betrayed me," said Marco.
"Betrayed you? How?" Cassie asked.
"You told Jordan about my secret," said Marco.
"I did not! I swear! I kept my mouth shut the entire time. I could tell
Jordan figured it out himself because this morning, he was like, 'I don't
think you should be friends with Marco and that he is concerned about you',
and I got suspicious of something."
"Cassie, stop lying. My own friend went and told a person she knew would
tell everyone. Some friend you are," said Marco.
"No! Some friend YOU are. You trusted me to keep this secret for ages and I
never told a soul. It was your responsibility to stop being a friggin'
chicken and tell everyone. And now you're blaming ME? People would have to
know sooner or later anyway!" screamed Cassie. Some people were looking at
her now.
Marco knew Cassie was speaking the truth, but still believed she betrayed
him.
"Okay, whatever. But you're still basically admitting you told Jordan,"
said Marco.
"I didn't! Why can't you believe me?" Cassie asked. "Besides, Jordan is the
one who betrayed you."
"We aren't friends, so that doesn't count," said Marco.
"Oh please, it doesn't matter. Even though you were not friends, he could
have at least kept it to himself for your sake, but he didn't."
"Maybe we should just keep our distance for now. You've caused a lot of
bullying and teasing for me."
"Fine. Whatever. This is what I get for being a good friend to you. You can
find someone else to handle your stupid secrets," said Cassie.
"Cassie and Marco. Did you finish the assignment?' Ms. Kwan asked.
"Almost done," said Cassie.
"And you Marco?" asked Ms. Kwan.
"I need to get started. Sorry," said Marco.
The students continued to work.
The last period went by slowly. Marco used to like school, until his secret
was revealed. Now, people are always bullying and teasing him. Even the
boys are always bending over, to see if Marco will actually look. Then the
bell rang. Marco was the first one out the door.
Note: Sorry for such a long time since I updated! As you all know, my story
is very OOC. Spinner is the one who accepts Marco, and Jordan hates Marco's
secret. Cassie is the one who keeps the secret, not Ellie. I had to make
some changes so my characters would fit into the story perfectly. R&R if
you want me to update!
