Horror Stories
-The Hallways-
Before I know it, the day is halfway over already. I think once again of all those memorable times with Craig. I was lucky that no one caught us. Except for the time when Emma came home early from the Rave. But I don't want to get into that now.
The flashbacks return.
-Media Immersion Lab-
As I enter just as the bell rings, I sit next to Emma. She doesn't really recognize me, but glances over as I take my seat.
"Alright class, you're all going to be studying the HTML terms for the next pop quiz that I'm going to give out on Monday."
I start going over the terms, when all the sudden I recieve a new email. It's from JT.
It said: "I found out something from Emma this morning. The person who sent in the article was Ashley."
Ashley. Why would she send in something like that? How did Emma know? Maybe she saw me and didn't want to tell me.
I look over at JT. He's concentrating hard and looks up at me. I look back at the screen. Embarrassed and ashamed. I never had feelings for a guy like him before like this. I guess, ever since I found out the Craig was with Ashley, I was very disappointed, so I stopped liking him. Then JT came into the picture, and he made everything almost normal for my life.
-The Hallway-
I'm on my way to my locker, walking on the right, when somebody trips me. I fall flat on my face and my books scatter away from me. Everyone laughs and points. I quickly gather myself and my books and head for the washroom crying my eyes out.
-The Girls' Washroom-
I run to the sink set my books down and look at myself in the mirror. My mascara is running and my lipgloss is practically gone.
'Why?' I think. Why did I start to dress differently? Why does Emma now hate me? Why did I destroy a poor, innocent child's life? Why? Why does the world hate me?
I start to cry. I run into one of the empty stalls, and sit on the toilet lid sobbing. I hear someone open the door. Through the tiny crack between where the wall and the door connects, I see who it is. Paige.
She fixes with ther hair, then applies some lipgloss. She looks over at my books and sees my name written on them.
"Manny?"
I wipe my eyes and open the door.
"Manny, is something bothering you?"
That's a first. Paige actually being nice to me.
"Well.. Sorta."
"Is it about Ashley? How she posted that article about you? Well.. not exactly about you, but.. about, you know."
"I haven't actually read it, so I don't know. But what I do know is that someone's spreading rumors about me. Do you know anything?"
"Well usually I'm the first to know these things but, I swore the person who started them that I wouldn't tell anyone, especially you. But since I'm feeling generous today, I'll give you some slack."
I nod, and she leans up against the sink.
"Craig, said that you wanted him to do it harder and harder, and that he didn't want to, but you made him, and then he came and that's how you got pregnant. He was going to pull out, but he couldn't because of you. That's what I heard."
How could someone do that? I mean, it's like, doesn't anyone care?
I quickly grab my books and run out of the washroom.
"Manny, hun!"
And that's all I heard as I ran down the halls crying.
