Arden finally reached to the Flaversham house. As she came to the door, she heard moaning voices. The moaning made her feel like something was wrong. But then, it immediately left her mind, because when she reached to the door, she instantly turned around, took a breath, and started talking to herself.
"Okay, 'Olivia, hi, so how's it going, girl? Everything's good? Great! I'm sorry for everything and sorry for calling you a bitch and everything. I didn't mean to. I was just in over my head. Could you please forgive me?' Good! I'll use that!" she whispered to herself.
She turned to the door, flung it wide open, and…
"OH MY GOD!! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS???!!!"
When Arden opened the door, she was completely shocked at what she saw.
She saw Olivia and Hunter making out on the table.
The two kissers kept lip locking and touched each other in their backsides. Even when they heard Arden's voice, they still held onto each other. It was not until Arden fell to her knees crying, when Olivia and Hunter stopped. They walked up to Arden and stared down at the fallen mouse. When Arden looked back up to them, Hunter stared down with a sly grin, and Olivia stood right behind him with her arms wrapped around him.
"Surprised, aren't ya?" asked Hunter in a suave voice. Olivia started to speak.
"You must be wondering why I'm making out with YOUR boyfriend!" she said. Arden rose back to her feet and nodded.
"It was all because of you!" replied Hunter. Arden gasped. Oh, how she wanted to fight back, but she did not want to.
"That's right, Arden. You called me a 'bitch', yelled at me, and you disrespected my father!! That drove me crazy!! I went mad! Mad I tell ya!! So I thought of a way to get back at you, so here I am with your ex-boyfriend! In fact, I don't know why any boy would like an ugly mouse like you! When I told him my plan, he totally agreed. I guess he's not as faithful as you thought," explained Olivia.
Olivia then started push Arden until her back made contact with the door. When her back hit the door, the arrow still stabbed in her back, was pushed deeper into her body. Arden yelped in pain. With pain increasing in her back, Arden started to speak.
"Olivia…I was going to say that I was sorry," she said. Olivia walked up and slapped Arden's face.
"I guess you were too late," she said mercilessly. Surprisingly, Arden's tears what from clear like water, to blood.
Yes, Arden started bleeding tears, all because of that stupid arrow.
"Y-y-you bitch…," she said with her voice breaking. Olivia, after hearing this, pulled Hunter towards her, and started making out with him. This made Arden feel pain, not from the arrow, but from the sight of someone she thought she trusted exchanging saliva with her boyfriend, after she had been through…
Olivia and Hunter enjoyed Arden's misery.
"Yes, Arden, stare at our mad love. If you think this is bad, you should've seen Hunter in bed! He's a mad mouse!!" cried Olivia. Arden gasped.
"WHAT!!! You…had…intercourse???!!! Olivia, you have changed!!" she yelled.
Olivia slapped her again.
"I'm a teenager too! I have my needs as well!" she protested.
"You're only twelve years old!! Besides, does Hiram know??!!" replied Arden. Hunter then slapped Arden.
"If you tell, I'll break your neck!!" he threatened.
Arden could not believe this!!
She ran out the door and climbed up to the roof to sit and think, shed tears, and to watch the sun go up.
It's
time to let go, it's time to carry on with the show.
Don't mourn
what is gone, greet the dawn.
As she looked around, she saw one of her friends, Nathan come by. He looked up and saw Arden on the roof. He waved and Arden motioned him to come up with her. He joined her and sat down together.
"It's nice to see you, Arden. I thought you were gonna get on to me for something. Is something botherin' ya?" he said.
"Yeah, Hunter's cheating on me, with my sister. They totally beat me up, I have an arrow in my back…again, and it turns out that Olivia had sexual intercourse with Hunter! Everyone's turned against me!" replied Arden. Nathan frowned.
"That doesn't sound like them, but I'll believe ya, seeing as you'd never tell a lie to me," he said. Arden was surprised.
"Wow! You're not doing anything perverted! I'm impressed. Change of heart or somethin'?" she asked.
"Nah, I'm trying to get change that. Ever since I've started fighting with my sister, Erin, I've been trying to change all that, so if you ever need anything, you can tell me," replied Nathan. Arden smiled, and she hugged him.
"Oh thank you!!" she cheered. Nathan, knowing to not over do it, hugged her back.
"Uh…you're welcome," he replied.
The two mice sat together and just stared at the landscape.
"Sure is pretty, ain't it," said Arden.
"I guess so," replied Nathan.
"I'm glad to look at it with a real friend," returned Arden. Nathan shot a surprised look.
"You really think that? I always thought that you thought I was just brainless player," he said. Arden put a paw on his shoulder.
"Well, all I can say is that I'm glad at least someone's on my side. Sure some people are on my side, but not everyone is…not anymore…," she said remembering Olivia and Hunter's affair.
She was about to cry again when she saw the sun rising up in the sky. Nathan and Arden got closer, but immediately moved back. Arden blushed and Nathan cleared his throat, but then smiled.
"Hey, Arden, if I were you, I wouldn't consider Hunter and Olivia as your friends anymore," suggested Nathan. Arden nodded.
"I know what you mean. Hunter said that if I told anyone, he'd break my neck…oh snap!!" she said. Nathan held Arden's hand.
"Don't worry, Arden. I was gonna have a long talk with that bastard, Hunter, but I care about you too much. Don't worry, Arden. You're secret's safe with me," he said. Arden clenched Nathan's hand in return. She spoke up again.
"That's all I ask…"
