Before we start I would just like to apologize for not updating this fanfic for months, I also like to apologize to those people who sent me an email that I was never able to reply to as soon as possible. The reason for this is because I was really busy these past months. I also rewritten this chapter many times because I can't think of a plot while sometimes I just lacked the motivation to finish it. But thankfully our classes just ended and it's currently our summer break, which means I have more time to update and finish this fanfic.
Note: This chapter was rewritten many times, I can't say this was my best work but I hope you guys enjoy the chapter
Thursday
6:30am
"Is it done Anderson?!" A spoiled brat aggresively asked, Anderson just rolled his eyes and sighed. The voice of Taylor really annoyed him.
"Yes Taylor" He replied forcefully as he showed his laptop towards the spoiled brat.
"Hmmmm...I think you should change this word because it's a bit too redundant...also have you already prepared the pictures I sent you? Because if you do then you should post them A.S.A.P " Taylor criticized, Anderson rolled his eyes once again as he is getting tired of her, not to mention he didn't really wanna do this.
"Are you really sure you wanna do this?" He asked.
"Of course, It's better to target the possible main threats to our plan, then we can proceed to our main plan" She seductively said as she proceeds to touch Anderson around his chest, the bodyguard quickly and gently yanked her arm away.
"Taylor...just don't" Anderson pleaded, Taylor just gave an evil smirked. This is when they heard footsteps nearby.
"Oh shoot, my parents are here. Make sure you finish that and post it around 9 in the morning using her account, even better if earlier" Taylor ordered as she quickly ran out of the office room, she hurried upstairs into her bedroom right before a knock was heard through the office door.
"Come in" Anderson pleaded. The door opened revealing Mister Lenniks, he noticed the bodyguard faced towards the door using a laptop in a table.
"Goodmorning Anderson, how's Taylor?" He asked.
"Oh I checked, she's still in bed" He replied.
"She didn't try to sneak out, did she?" The dad asked.
"Oh don't worry sir, she was well behaved. She never tried to sneak out of the room" Anderson lied, Mister Lenniks sighed in relief unbeknownst to what happened. "By the way sir, Is there um...any words or news about Ryan or um Bryan?" He curiously asked. The dad just looked down in dissapointment.
"So far there was sadly no news about him. Who knows where he might be but I'm hoping the police and authorities find him as soon as possible. I'll update you guys as soon as possible. For now it's best for Taylor to be kept in the room for awhile, make sure she doesn't sneak out at the same time make sure she doesn't have any contact with social media" The father pleaded, Anderson nervously nodded. "Alright then, it's already past 6:30, I should wake up Taylor by now for breakfast" He said as he exits the office. Anderson looked back at his laptop, revealing how he is currently using Heather's Instagram account. He sorted several interesting pictures that are about to be posted in Social Media soon.
9:00am
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!" A loud scream was heard across the Wilson house. It wasn't just any scream, it was a scream of terror and despair.
"What is it honey?!?" The mother asked as she rushly opened the door of her daughter's bedroom. She turn to see her raven haired daughter by the window, standing frozen in terror, looking at her laptop. She slowly walked towards her. "Everything okay?" She calmly asked.
"M...M...MY INSTAGRAM!!!!" Heather cried, her mother turn to see her Instagram posts are now filled with embarassing pictures of her daughter. The mother cringed at this.
"Hey what's going on?" Someone called out, the two turned to see Heather's Dad approaching them, behind him was her little brother, Damien. The dad also cringed at what he saw. "Honey, what did you post?!? Those look terrible!" He called out.
"I know Dad!...I don't even remember posting any of these!!!" She questioned herself as she scrolled down the embarassing pictures, there was even a video posted that shows her cat licking her lips while she was sleeping only to be shown that the cat's mouth came from somewhere...private. This made her cringe even more until she realized something, she slowly turned her head towards her little brother, sho raised an eyebrow.
"YOU DID THIS DIDN'T YOU?!?" She angrily asked.
"What? No I never did that" Damien replied. Heather rolled her eyes.
"Yeah right you little twerp, like I'm gonna believe that...YOU!" Heather yelled as she stood up from her seat about to confront her little brother when her mother stopped her. "WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS?!?" She asked again.
"I NEVER DID THAT!" Damien replied back.
"STOP LYING TO ME!"
"I'M NOT LYING!"
"He's not lying Heather!" The mom finally spoke out.
"What? Mom, why are you defending him?" Heather questioned. The mother sighed.
"Honey, when were those pictures posted?" Her mother asked. Heather looked back at her laptop, realizing these pictures were already on the internet for 30 minutes.
"About 30 minutes ago!" She replied.
"Then Damien didn't post that, 30 Minutes ago I was helping Damien in fitting all the clothes I just bought for him. Plus I also remember that his phone is still charging that time...there is no way you're little brother will post that" Her mother explained.
"But Damien is the only person who had access to my Instagram account and the photos, heck he was the one who also video taped the cat thing!" Heather stated.
"For the last time sis, IT WASN'T ME!" Damien argued, Heather glared at him and grunted before looking back at her laptop.
One of the pictures was her throwing up in the toilet with the caption "Giving myself food poisioning, totally worth it for the experience, I recommend you guys try it!". It already had 7,000 views.
She cringed and quickly looked at the 504 comments already posted:
"Ew WTH! This is just plain gross!!!"
"Did she just recommend giving yourself food poisoning to us?!? Dude this is just BAD!"
"What kind of idiot would post a thing like this on the media?"
" 'I recommend you guys try it' Ummm...Is she crazy or something?!?...Does she even know that Food Poisoning can straight up kill you?!? Like, Hello Food Poisoning is a serious thing not a f*ckimg trend!!!"
"This is the grossest thing I have ever seen on my entire life!!!"
Most comments pointed out how disgusted or how terrible it is. The other pictures also had the same thing with more views and more comments pointing out how it is disgusting or disturbing. She looked back at her status to see her number of 5000 plus followers slowly decreasing.
"CRAP, CRAP!!!" She quickly deleted all 10 of her embarassing posts, but the final number of followers decreased to 4,356. "WELL THIS IS JUST GREAT!" She sarcastically remarked. "I lost hundreds of followers in just less than an hour!!!" She grunted as she banged her head on her bed, frustrated by it.
"Well on the bright side at least you deleted it" The father said.
"You don't understand Dad...This is SOCIAL MEDIA were talking about, once you posted a picture on it, then there is no turning back, multiple people will already have access to making a copy of that post. Not to mention thousands of people have seen the video...I'm probably gonna end up in one of those "Stupid people on Social Media Compilation" on Youtube...AUGH MY SOCIAL LIFE IS JUST RUINED!!!" She cried as she lied in bed.
"You didn't even had a social life to begin with" Damien fired back.
"SHUT UP DAMIEN!" Heather barked.
"Look honey, If you didn't post that then who do you think did...It can't be Damien, who do you think also had access to the Instagram account and the photos?" Her mother asked.
"I don't know!" She replied, frustrated.
"Well there has gotta be someone, worst case scenario is you're Instagram account has already been hacked...I think it's best if you delete your account and make another one" Her father suggested, Heather groaned at the idea.
9:45am
Wawanakwa High School entrance.
A blue ford car halted in the driveway facing the main glass door/entrance of the school. The guard saw through the car window and immediately knew the person driving the car. He gave a greeting wave towards the driver, who immediately waved back. The person beside him rolled his eyes and crossed his arms.
"Oh don't be so jealous Al" Jose taunted, Alejandro gritted his teeth as he stepped out of the car and slammed the car door. He aggresively walked towards the entrance, trying to not look back at the car to see his brother smirking at him. He just continued walking towards the entrance, passing the guard. He started to angrily mumble things and proceeded to grip his fists, he ignored all the students and teachers that proceeded to stare at him. All these thoughts about his brother is making him annoyed and angry at the same time.
"Augh, I swear If Jose teases me one more freaking time then I'm gonna loose it. That freaking Gillipolas!!! F*CK F*CK!!!! First I failed, now he's taking away the only thing that is gonna keep me sane for this motherf*cking end of the school year AUGH!!!!"
He continued to angrily stomp as he walks up the stairs until he finally reached his classroom, realizing that majority of the students were already there minding their own business including Scott and Gerald.
"GOODMORNING AL!!!!" Owen greeted loudly, the Latino was obviously surprised and annoyed at the same time. This caught the attention of the bully as well.
"Great, another way to remind me of my brother. Thanks a lot Owen...THANKS A LOT!" Alejandro continued to glare at the cheerful boy, who obviously can't tell that he's angering him. He sat to an empty seat next to the party boy Geoff, who gave a wave. He rolled his eyes in return, the party boy gave a disappointed sigh.
"Well if it isn't Alejandro Burromuerto, the forgotten member of the smart Burromuerto family" Scott taunted, the whole class became silent again as they know things are about to get ugly.
"Okay Scott, just stop it alright" Katie pleaded as she stood up from her seat.
"Yeah dude, yesterday was already harsh. So I think it's better if we all just chill out for awhile" Geoff added.
"Oh don't worry about me. Let Scott here insult me all he wants, the more he insults me, the more he's making a fool of himself because deep down he's just a sad lonely dirt farmer that wasn't held enough as a child" Alejandro fired back. Scott quickly stood up from his seat and eagerly faced the Latino.
"Got any problems with a dirt farmer huh?" Scott angrily asked. The Latino smirked even more.
"I don't have any problems with a dirt farmer, However I do have problems with people who puts other people down just because they're jealous of their success" Alejandro retorted.
"Pffftttt success?" Scott scoffed. "Like what success? The only reason you got on the honors list is because of manipulation and dumb luck" He added. Geoff quickly went inbetween the two.
"Woah woah calm down both of you" Geoff said.
"Shut it party boy. Why are you even defending this Latino? Isn't he the same guy who caused that insane conflict between you and your girlfriend?" Scott reminded, the party boy gave a concerned look back to the Latino, who made a somehow guilty look. "Not to mention Alejandro's girlfriend gave him moral support during the situation" Scott added much to the Latino's annoyance.
"Heather is not my girlfriend" Alejandro said in annoyance.
"Whatever, doesn't matter. The fact that you failed that exam is proof that you will never be as good as your brother!" Scott fired back. At this point Alejandro has completely lost it, he couldn't hold his anger anymore, without even hesitation he quickly stood from his seat and lunged towards the dirt farmer, to the surprise of everyone in class. Alejandro quickly got the upper hand as Scott was completely defenseless.
"NEVER MENTION MY BROTHER AGAIN!" Alejandro cried right as he raised his fist and punched the dirt farmer's face so hard that a bone crack sound was even heard. The whole class fell into silent and Alejandro then widened his eyes and just realized what he had done. Scott is groaning in pain, he ended having a black eye thanks to Alejandro, who just stood up in shock and turned to see his other schoolmates just straight up terrified and backing up away from him.
"What have I done" He muttered under his breath. He was about to help Scott until he realized that their teacher Miss Lipson was there the whole time, she glared at Alejandro, who gulped.
"Augh! What is taking so long?" Heather questioned in annoyance as she impatiently waits in a bench outside the Principal's Office. She already passed her missing requirement, that is until Principal Mclean asked her to wait in school for awhile. The raven haired girl didn't know what's up but something tells her that this will probably have to do with the popular girls or the scandal. She just scrolled her phone in boredom, that is until her attention was caught when she heard multiple footsteps approaching. In the end of the hallway was Scott being escorted by Miss Lipson and Geoff. Heather widened her eyes in shock when she realized Scott had a left black eye and it's currently bleeding a little. Behind them was Alejandro currently has his arms crossed and looking down in guilt.
Professor Hatchet came in the right moment and was shocked to see Scott's injury.
"What in the world...What the heck happened here?!" Hatchet questioned.
"There was a fight that occured" Miss Lipson replied.
"And who caused it?" He asked. Miss Lipsom turned around glared back at Alejandro, much to the Professor's surprise. He never expected a long time honor student to be involved in violence.
"You?!?" He asked in shock. The Latino just sighed.
"Yes Professor, I was the one who caused this" Alejandro apologetically said as he still looked down trying not to make eye contact with the now glaring Professor, who lifted his arm and pointed through a door right near them.
"wait in the guidance office...we'll settle this later" Hatchet ordered in a very slow but angry tone before walking away to help Scott. Alejandro just sighed and purposely bumped Geoff's shoulder giving him a glare before going inside the guidance office. The party boy gulped as Heather approached him.
"Hey, what the heck just happened?" She asked curiously. The party boy sighed.
"There was an argument between Scott and Alejandro, that is until Alejandro lunged at him and did...that!" Geoff said referring to Scott's current state.
"Wh...Why would he do that?!" Heather asked in shock.
"I don't know..Look Scott has been teasing him ever since yesterday mostly about his family, how he is such a failure, and about his brother which we all know that he doesn't want to talk about him. Scott has been irritating us but now...I don't know what to say, what Alejandro did was just way too far" Geoff admitted.
"Based on what you said I think I can confirm both are at faults. Scott is an attention seeker and a bully, he caused the buildup to Alejandro's anger which he couldn't take it anymore but still..." Heather said.
"...and now Alejandro is in trouble. Seriously, first the exams, then the scandal, then Duncan surprisingly working for the popular girls and now this. It's almost the end of the school year were supposed to be chilling right now but everything seems to get worse" Geoff commented.
"I'm still here wondering why Alejandro failed the test, he was the first one to finish during the day of the exams. And we all know Alejandro is a freaking honor student not to mention he excels in every single subject even in Claculus and Analytic Geometry...something just feels wrong, if Alejandro didn't fail then he wouldn't have been teased and THIS wouldn't have happened!" Heather said. This is when Geoff widened his eyes, he remembered the bros trip they did before the exams.
"Uhhhh...I gotta go" Geoff awkwardly said as he hurried away from the raven haired girl, who just raised an eyebrow but gained a little suspiscion from the party boy's weird behaviour.
"Alright Heather Wilson, it's time!" Principal Mclean called.
In the Principal's Office...
Heather is just sitted with her hands clasped while the Principal reads some documents on the table.
"So Heather, I assume you already passed every requirement right?" He asked politely.
"Yes..." Heather replied awkwardly.
"Good because I'm here to- "
"-To finally decide that the popular girls should be completely expelled from this school? That would be a great move Chris-I- mean Principal Mclean hehe" The Principal just glared at her. "...Sorry but Seriously Sir, I know Taylor's dad only bribed you to only give them 2 weeks of suspension when they LITERALLY committed tons of violations, bullying and in some cases even physical assault. That's like equivalent to HUNDREDS of suspensions, expulsion and juvie. If you ask me Sir, I would literally ban them from this school AND put them to juvie. I've known Taylor ever since the beginning of High School and I can tell you that SHE doesn't change, you knew what she did to Ezekiel right?, she will always find an opportunity to ruin people when she had the chance. If you let her and the other girls repeat another school year then she will still commit the same malicous things she did and get more people into trouble, the only difference is a different batch will be greatly affected this time. You said yourself that this school appreciates Honor, Value and Discipline. I don't think keeping her and the other girls in this school will make anything better!" Heather finally called out the bullsh*t "on hold" decision of keeping the popular girls or expelling them. The Principal was actually quite impressed considering this is the second time Heather actually did something reasonable in the Principal's Office(first is when she exposed the popular girls).
"...Look Heather, I know it must bother you about the decision-"
"It does Sir!" Heather bluntly said, Mclean gave an annoyed look for interrupting him.
"But I'm also here to discuss things with you" He finished his sentence.
"...Wh...What do you mean Sir?" Heather asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Heather...I'm actually glad that you did the exposing as well as you completely leaving the group. However just because you left the group doesn't mean you're overall safe from the past misdeeds you did in this school" Mclean said in a serious tone, Heather proceeded to sweat nervously, although she knew she had it coming.
"Alright, look you were an "ex-popular girl member" which means you were involved in multiple of these incidents on purpose. Based on these evidences, you were a part of the Social Media fiasco...you posted multiple pictures of private and embarassing pictures of people on Social Media which caused one heck of a fight...am I right?" Mclean asked.
"...Yes, I was part of the plan there" Heather admitted, feeling guilty.
"...and you were also involved in the incident in the Girl's Locker room where you did a prank on one person a.k.a Beth Gadon?" He asked for clarification, Heather sighed again.
"...Yes"
"Surprisingly you weren't actually involved in Ella Muse getting suspended, you did however knew about it and decided to just kept quiet"
"I didn't even knew anything about that incident until they told me" Heather said.
"Hmmm Interesting...did you also knew about how Taylor and Sugar broke someone's arm while Amy trashed all his requirements making him fail a semester. Or how about the fact that the three of them insulted a person with a disability and mocked him on social media...or about the fact that they also trashed someone's costume making him also fail a semester" He added, it was just Heather's first time hearing all of these incidents so she was just complete shocked.
"...No...no, I never knew any of this stuff. I swear" Heather admitted, Mclean stared at her before looking back at the file he's reading.
"Interesting...moving on, you were however involved in other bullying incidents like scaring the twins Mickey and Jay, pouring coffee down Gwen Fahlenbock's face and either threatening or bribing other people to do your own work, taking all the credit for group projects...not to mention other sutdents complained on how you didn't contribute a single thing on your thesis project that lasted for two semesters, you should be thankful that your groupmates are kind enough to put your name on the members list" Mclean stated.
"...well yeah but I technically gave them moral support, I mean that counts as helping right?" Heather said as she chuckled awkwardly, Mclean just stared at her blankly. She sighed. "Alright I didn't help at the thesis at all"
"Hmmm...well at least you didn't made another person your own personal "assistant" for an entire school year and got her in trouble for letting her sneak an answer sheet for the exam, not to mention she failed one semester because you took all the credit and used her" Mclean reminded, referring to the malicous thing Heather did on her first year of High School towards Lindsay. The raven haired girl gave a somehow guilty expression.
"Please don't tell me this will add up to my records...You already gave me suspension for 3 whole weeks because of that!" Heather complained.
"Yeah but I would've expelled you...May I remind you Heather that if it wasn't for your parents begging me...then you wouldn't even be here in this campus right now" Mclean said, she was silent. "..And not even counting the Lindsay incident, all these other things you did via group or not could still give you multiple suspensions, to offenses and worst case scenario, EXPULSION" He explained.
"...So...I'm still gonna get suspended aren't I?" She nervously asked, Mclean just sighed.
"You would...but the thing is...this year you actually did something that is worthy of keeping you in this school" He said.
"What do you mean?" Heather questioned.
"Look, we checked all the evidences you and we can find. So far there is still no news about Ryan, I did however found out about the other strategies you guys did. Taylor, Amy and Sugar have been interviewed using a lie detector and we found out that out of everything they did, they always hired a person to do it...I mean they let people do their own homeworks, projects and even helped them cheat for every test they had...which is unsuprising..." Mclean then looked at Heather. "But we also found out that you are actually doing it by yourself...all these tests that you passed these last semesters, I found out that you never cheated your way through it, you actually studied for these tests. I talked to your parents about this and they even showed me evidence that the night before a test happens you always either cram or study as much as you can plus no wonder why you also had a couple of failed ones because it was on you all along. As for the projects, the only person you bribed was Justin, which didn't really worked out...you however stole credit for some groupworks and didn't really helped through the thesis...but as for the individual ones...you actually did it all by yourself...and Finally the Yearly Final Exam...which you guys did confess that you were originally gonna side with Taylor BUT I'm glad you didn't and you managed to pass the exam with the help of Leshawna helping you study the day before...Additionally exposing the popular girls is also a bonus point for you guys because it literally helped us cracked a lot of cases or incidents that we haven't even solved these past few years" Mclean explained, for the first time Heather was actually feeling better in the Principal's Office, in the previous years all she hears where bad news about her but this time it was different.
"Look Heather, you may be a credit stealer at times, a jerk, an irresponsible person and an obnoxious attention seeker...but all these things you did proves that you actually had potential to stay in this school...In your first and second year you were terrible and I wanted to get rid of you completely but now you're improving and you left that so called "friend" group you once joined, which is why I'm a bit glad that I never expelled you from this school...So I've decided that I will be giving you another chance, I won't be expelling you BUT...Your conduct grade however will be lowered and I will also give you an hour detention for this day in order to be fair but other than that there won't be any other punishments" Mclean said, Heather gave a dissapointed sigh.
"I mean it's just an hour detention, I guess I can live with that" Heather weakly replied.
"I already told your parents about this but on the bright side you never cheated, so you pretty much deserve the grades you received this semester...and If it makes you feel better...I have decided that I will expel Taylor, Amy and Sugar from this school" Mclean decided, this indeed made Heather feel better
"YES!" She cheered.
"You're pretty much right about it, they did bribe me but It's still unfair because those 3 brats commited many violations and even physical assault which can result to expulsion...so yeah rules are rules" Mclean added.
"HA! TAKE THAT TAYLOR!" Heather yelled in delight.
"Well I guess you can start your detention right now, once it's over though you will now be free of punishments...learn from this Heather" Mclean said.
"I promise, I won't get into trouble next time" Heather swore. Mclean just gave a smirk.
"Good, and for that you may now be dismissed" Mclean dismissed, Heather nodded as she stood up from her seat and exited the room, she headed straight to the detention room. The Principal then received another call from the telephone, he picked it up, soon he widened his eyes of the news he heard.
"He did what?!?" He asked in shock.
10:30am
Alejandro patiently waits for his parents to come, he shudders in the bench in front of the Principal's Office, nervously waiting for them. At this time Scott was already released from the clinic, he currently has a bandage over his left eye.
"Oh Scottie, are you alright son?! Who did this to you?!" A tall red head man called as he approached Scott, he's wearing navy jeans and a white polo shirt. Scott's eye pointed towards the Latino, who gulped. The dirt farmers father just glared at him before another person called out.
"Alejandro!" The Latino turn to see his mother glaring at him as she approaches. She halted once she noticed Scott's black eye and she even received a glare from the dirt farmer's father.
"Mr. Wallis and Mrs. Burromuerto, it's time" Professor Hatchet called from the Principal's Office, the two parents just stared at each other and entered the office leaving the two students sitting on opposite sides of the benches. Miss Lipson soon came to guard the two, on the other hand she sat next to Scott, and just like him she glared at the Latino, he was literally getting paranoid each second that passes, he had to make an excuse to get out of the area.
"Uh...Miss Lipson...can I please use the restroom?" Alejandro nervously asked, Miss Lipson just glared at him while Scott snickered.
"What a lazy attempt to escape Al" Scott taunted much to the Latino's annoyance, he wanted to fire back but he would be in more trouble.
"Please" Alejandro begged.
"...Fine...even if you do escape, we'll know and you will be in more trouble" Miss Lipson stated, Alejandro awkwardly stood up and walked away, although he wasn't really gonna go to the restrooms nor escape, he just wanted to be away from Scott cause he is having a mixture of anger, guilt, annoyance and even anxiety. He started sweating every steo he took towards the hallways, he's overthinking. In fact, he doesn't really know what's happening, he felt bad for what he did to Scott but the emotions got to him. Every single bad thing that happened these past few weeks to him is just driving him crazy, this is until he finally bursted and yelled as loud as he could, punching a thick glass window. Luckily it didn't broke but it did caused a certain girl to shriek. Alejandro looked through the glass window to see Heather sitting next to it, looking at him confused. The Latino looked to see that the room was Detention, he checked the room to see no one else was guarding it, he curiosly entered the room.
"Uhhhhh, where is the person guarding this room? Isn't this detention?" Alejandro asked.
"The teacher went to the bathroom to "pee" or whatever It was he did since he left 10 minutes ago" Heather said in annoyance.
"Okay...why are you in detention?" Alejandro asked.
"I don't know, I gotta ask you...why did you enter this classroom, you're not even part of detention...unless if this is the punishment you get for giving Scott a black eye" Heather mentioned, Alejandro just sighed in guilt. "Seriously Alejandro, I know Scott is a jerk and all but I don't think going physical is a way to you know...resolve things" She added.
"Funny how this is coming from the most hated person in our class not to mention you had plenty of catfights with Gwen" Alejandro teased, Heather rolled her eyes.
"Yeah tease me all you want Alejandro, but the thing you did back there will get you into more trouble. I know you had family issues but you just made it worse" Heather pointed out.
"Well I'm sorry, Scott is irritating me and my emotions got in the way!" Alejandro said in annoyance. "Now I feel guilty for causing physical violence!" He grunted as he crossed his arms.
"Honestly Alejandro, there's pretty much nothing you can do right now. The only thing you could probably do is-" Heather refrained from talking once he noticed the Latino starting to tear up.
"...Uh...Are you okay?" Heather asked in concern. The Latino tried to calm himself down but it didn't work, tears just continued falling down his eyes.
"What do you think Heather?!? I failed the exam, been caught forging my papers, was forced to attend remedial classes, and NOW I CAUSED PHYSICAL VIOLENCE TOWARDS ANOTHER PERSON!!!...Don't you get it Heather? It's game over for me, at this point, my parents are probably gonna disown their own son for being like THIS..." He continued to cry. "Remedial classes was the only chance I got to redeem myself but instead everything became just worse for me!!!!...Many might think that I have pretty much everything but in reality I'm just an outcast of my well known family!" He continued sobbing as he sat down on the floor and leaning against the wall. Heather just stood there feeling bad but also a bit shocked considering that Alejandro had never shown a behaviour like this before. She just sat down next to the crying Latino, patting his shoulders, trying her best to comfort him.
"Hey, hey come on now...It's gonna be okay" She said as she continued to pat him.
"It's not Heather! It's Hopeless...I'm never gonna be appreciated for the rest of my life now that I've done this" He weakly said as tears continue to fall from his eyes. "Do you know what it's like to be treated as an outcast your whole life, especially by your own brother, who doesn't appreciate everything you did no matter how hard you work for it" He added.
"No...but I do know how it feels like to be the most hated person in class" Heather replied, the Latino just stared at her, knowing that she did have a point. "Look Alejandro, you said it yourself I was the most hated person in the class...I'm gonna admit that I was a b*tchy person and I did deserve all the hate...It was hard going into class everyday knowing that everyone thinks that you're the mean one and will always be the mean one in class, you might think that it's just fine with me but no...It hurts a lot" Heather said in a very real tone, the Latino can actually sense the pain in her voice. "...but I never told myself that it's gonna be that way all the time...No way I gave up...you wanna know what I did?...I did what I think is right, I left the popular girls once and for all, I spent the day before the exams cramming every requirement I need to pass and every lesson I need to study...but I know I couldn't do it alone, so I literally called everyone I could call, begging them to help me...even if they hate me...I managed to convince Leshawna and Harold to help me expose the popular girls, they also gave me a hand in helping me study for the yearly exam and thanks to them I passed the exams and the plan worked...that also gave me the time to make up with them, to fix some of the things I managed to ruin because of my past misdeeds...Even if some others still hate me atleast I tried fixing the stuff I could fix" Heather explained. "That is why don't tell yourself that it's already hopeless because you have the chance to redeem yourself, to prove that you're not just an outcast...sure what you did to Scott was out of line but you can still make up to that" She added. Alejandro just took a deep breath, he never would've thought that the so called "mean girl" of the class will be the one to actually comfort him.
"So my advice right now, try to make things right with them...you can't do anything about Scott's blackeye right now, but you can still make up with him" Heather then stood up and offered the Latino a hand, which he gently took.
"Look Alejandro, I've been meaning to tell you something...what the heck happened in your exams?" Heather asked curiously, the Latino just sighed.
"...Alright...I need to tell you something...something that happened before the exams..." Alejandro said, the raven haired girl raised an eyebrow.
Sometime later...
"You were WHAT?!?" Heather asked in shock.
"That's what they told me" Alejandro replied.
"That can't be right...so you're telling me you were just drunk for no reason?!?" She asked.
"That's one thing I've been trying to find out...there is no way I was just crazy like that...which is why I've been trying my best to calm myself down everytime I see that delinquent and party boy...I knew they were upto something...probably trying to sabotage me since I was such an honor student!" Alejandro said in annoyance.
"Hmmm I can't see Geoff doing that...but I can totally see Duncan do it" Heather said.
"Aughhhhh, If I see that delinquent I swear I'm gonna turn him into one living pretzel!" Alejandro angrily said.
"Of course, this could make sense...you finished that test way too early and you were an honor student...you failing the test just felt so wrong...look we need more evidence...this could fix everything" Heather said. "Is there anyone else who knew about this story...aside from Duncan and Geoff?" She asked.
"I don't know if those two told anyone but If you're talking about the full detailed story then you were the only other one who knew about this...But Courtney and Bridgette did knew about the whole trip, however they most likely didn't knew about me getting drunk and them going to Toronto because Geoff and Duncan lied about going to Washago while I'm trapped inside a trunk of a truck!" Alejandro explained.
"We need to atleast figure out why that happened to you...them sabotaging you could be an option but I'm not jumping to conclusions...We need more evidence" Heather said just as the teacher guarding her came back to the classroom.
"Hey, Mister Burromuerto what are you doing here? You're supposed to be waiting outside the Principal's Office" The teacher said.
"Oh sorry Sir, I'll be going now" Alejandro apologetically said, just as his about to leave Heather called out to him.
"Hey!" The Latino turned around. "...Redeem yourself" She said, he nodded before exiting the door.
Burromuerto car...
"FIRST YOU FAILED THE EXAMS, THEN I CAUGHT YOU FORGING, NOW YOU'RE BEATING UP A PERSON?!?!?!??" Her mom angrily said as she drives the car, her son is seated in the back. "THANKS TO THAT, YOU RECEIVED A TWO DAY SUSPENSION WHEN YOU COULD'VE USED THOSE TWO DAYS IN REMEDIAL LESSONS...I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT YOU ALEJANDRO...YOU KNOW, WHY CAN'T YOU JUST BE LIKE YOU'RE BROTHER?!?!?" She scolded him, those words literally hurted Alejandro but he tried his best not to cry, he tried to stay strong but now he doesn't know how to fix or redeem himself yet. He will have to be patient for awhile.
4:30pm
"Bye Bridge, catch you tomorrow!" Geoff said as he waved bye, exiting the house of her surfer girlfriend.
"See you tomorrow Babe, make sure you remember everything we discussed today!" Bridgette waved back, before going bakc inside and closing the door. Geoff continued to walk and into another street. As soon as the party boy is out of sight, one person stood up from behind the nearby bushes. She slowly went towards the front porch of the surfer girl house, knocking on the door as soon as she reached it. The door opened and Bridgette was surprised to see an unexpected visitor.
"Heather? What are you doing here?" Bridgette asked curiously.
"Look...I need to talk to you" Heather said.
