Recap:

"What just happened?" Jared demanded when he saw Kim, who was obviously upset.

"I think you do." I said steadily, looking at Paul.

You Chose Our Division

"What are you talking about?" Paul demanded looking from Kim to me. This whole situation was turning into something drastic. What didn't I know? What didn't I see? It appeared that everyone knew about Paul's secret while I was the only one left in the dark. Was it done on purpose? Or was it accidentally?

"Jules?" Jared's voice rang in the air and filled it with tension. Kim wasn't looking at me or Paul for that matter but cowered into Jared's arm as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders protectively. A sudden edge of anger appeared and I couldn't help but let it show in my voice. What were they playing at?

"Summer just told me something interesting." I responded looking at Paul. For once I was glad that his eyes didn't affect me. Not now. Not when I found out that he's hiding something. Something that involved me. But that's not the worst part. Everyone knows. Except me.

"What was that?" Seth asked looking at Kim with slight anger in his eyes. I thought I heard Jared growl at Seth but that wasn't possible. Men don't growl. At least, I think so. I suppose my shock was portrayed in my face because Paul snapped at Seth and Jared.

"Don't you dare." Seth hissed looking at Paul. Paul glared back at him and before I knew my best friend and my possible love interest were practically at each other's throat. Suddenly Paul started to quiver and the tension increased and suddenly I was pulled away from the scene while I saw through the corner of my eye Jared and Brady calm Paul down. Seth just glared at him from a distance but he kept talking. I wished I heard what they were saying; maybe it would clear things out.

"Let me go Kim." I snapped when Kim tried to pull me further away. I pulled my arm out of her hand and she looked at me with a hurt expression. My anger softened but it didn't evaporate and before I knew it my feet had lead me to Paul again. I couldn't believe all of this was happening in a parking lot.

As I confronted Paul again I grasped his hand and pulled him towards me. He stumbled slightly by the shock but his quivering stopped and he looked at me with confusion filling his eyes. If he expected that I wouldn't react or so to this whole thing than he was seriously mistaken.

"What did Summer say?" Paul demanded.

"That you were hiding something. Something that apparently involved me." I responded just as angry as Paul. But when Paul slightly paled and again started to shake my wall crumbled and I started to shout myself.

"What did she mean? Are you hiding something?" I asked. I knew that if he was hiding something it didn't necessarily needed to involve me but if everyone around me knew except me, it certainly had to be something important. Something he didn't want me to know.

"Jules, it's nothing. Summer was just messing around." Seth spoke up. I was surprised he defended Paul, especially since he was about to hit him just a second ago.

"Oh really?" I responded sarcastically. If he really thought his words would make a difference than he really was mistaken. "Than why were you ready to hit him?"

"It's none of your business." Seth responded.

"Than why does everyone, except me, know?" I replied. I was fiddling with the hem of my shirt nervously while anger was fogging my mind and making it hard to think rationally.

"Look, we don't know!" Brady intercepted. I glared at him. Summer was his sister. It was weird he wasn't defending her.

"Whatever, I don't care." I responded exasperated and I moved to walk away but Paul grabbed my arm and pulled me to a stop.

"It's about Lily." He said softly.

"What do you mean?" I responded. Alarmed by the fact he was bringing that up now. Why would he do that? I thought we had pushed that all aside. Apparently he was up to something and when he turned to me I realized that whatever it was it wasn't good.

"I found her address. And I want you to visit her." Paul said firmly. Anger blinded me and I pulled my arm out of his grip. He shouldn't have done that.

"Why?" I demanded crestfallen. "Why would you do that?"

"Julie-" Paul began but I cut him off again.

"Do not talk to me. Do not ever talk to me again." I hissed and I moved away. Hurt and angry tears were glistering in my eyes. He had done it now. He had ruined it all. And I wasn't sure if my feelings were worth it to make all of it alright. Because all of it was still new.

One thing I did know though, I didn't want him near me.

^*^

"Kim, don't! Please." I muttered when Kim forced me to eat something. I was home alone and my parents were still gone. I had asked Kim to stay with me even though I was still angry. But I pushed that anger aside and thought rationally. I had a pretty big house and I didn't feel that safe all alone, if I were with Kim I'd feel better. I asked Summer as well but she didn't wanted to come because Kim would be here. Pathetic yes! Necessary, apparently.

"Jules, you have to eat something. You haven't eaten something since this morning. It's not healthy." She reprimanded. I shrugged, honestly, I could care less. I didn't have the appetite or the energy to do anything, this included eating.

"Kim, let's not, alright? Besides, I just want to sleep right now." Kim gave me final look before she took both of our plates; mine still full, to the kitchen. She had cooked dinner and I felt bad for letting her do all the work. I got up and realized that I felt very tired, a bit dizzy. And I held on to the edge of the dining table before I continued walking to the kitchen. Kim was already filling up the dishwasher. I decided to help her.

"Sorry Kim, I'm being a bit of a wet blanket right now." I apologized, and I moved to help her. I might as well do something productive.

"I understand. I'm just as surprised as you are that Paul did that to." Kim responded focusing her attention on filling the dishwasher. Question marks rose and I frowned at her. Didn't she already know? Wasn't it one of the reasons why I was so angry? Because everyone knew beside me.

"What are you talking about Kim? Didn't you already know? Didn't everyone know?" I demanded. My voice was quivering and somehow I felt betrayed and I felt scared by what was going on.

"Oh, I d-didn't mean it like that." Kim said nervously. "I knew. I did."

"Than why didn't you tell me? Didn't you owe me that? As your best friend. You're supposed to tell me these kinds of things." I was indeed betrayed and it looked like there were more things going on which I was oblivious to.

"But it wasn't my secret to tell." Kim responded evenly. She looked at me with fearful eyes and she was clutching the white plate in her hands.

"I don't care; first of all, it's not a secret. And second of all, it never stopped you before." My anger was at its peak and I was surprised my voice was so deadly calm. Maybe because I was more hurt than really angry.

"I was only trying to help." Kim defended. "I never meant to let it come out like this. How would I know that Summer would act like how she did."

"Don't blame it on Summer, she at least wanted to tell me." I hissed slamming my hand on the table. I glared fully at Kim and felt some sort of satisfaction when I saw her glare at me to. Good, become angry, give me a reason to explode.

"Than why was Paul the one that spilled the secret, huh? Summer walked away." Kim shouted. Her voice cracking.

"Because you told her to." I yelled back. "Because you were so set on hurting her you didn't see that it hurt me to. Don't you have any shame at all?"

"Don't you dare talk to me like that." Kim hissed, her voice dropping in volume. Tears were filling her eyes and I hadn't realized that my tears had already spilled over. I knew that the argument was over. The dam had broken and the water was flowing now.

Silence engulfed us and Kim put the plate she was holding in the sink again before she started to wash her hands. I couldn't understand why she was just standing there, why wasn't she leaving? Did she want me to kick her out? Because I surely would love that. I didn't care she was my best friend. Note to the past tense. After this I'm not sure if it's worth it all.

"I think you should go." I said. I looked at her and saw that the tears had gone and it had replaced a look full of sorrow. Not to mention the regret and guilt that filled her eyes.

"Don't worry, I'm going." Kim responded. I turned my back on her as she walked away and didn't move until the door closed behind her back. I just lost all my friends in less than two days. How someone could accomplish that? I wasn't sure. But I was sure that our group had divided itself. Summer had pulled away, so had Kim. And of course Jared would be with her. And then you had Seth and Brady. And last and especially least there was Paul.

Where did it leave me?

A/N: Review you guys.

P.S: The secret Paul just spilled, it's a cover up for another secret, can someone guess which one?
