Jenny was walking from her dorm room, trying to avoid Callie. She liked it much better when they were friends and she could actually go to her dorm. But they were never really friends, were they?
It still hurt her, that Callie and Easy were back together. Well, it's not that they were back together, it was just that Callie lied to her about the whole thing. Some friend. She found out for herself a couple of days ago when she saw them, in the barn together.
"Jenny." Someone yelled at her across the field.
She turned to face, Easy himself.
She smiled, "What's up?"
"I, uh, have a question for you." He said.
He looked a little…nervous. It was kind of weird to see Easy nervous to talk to her.
"Ok." Jenny said.
He looked at the ground. "Well, uh, Callie told me you saw us in the barn…together, and that she thinks you started the fire… Jenn … did you… you know, start the fire?"
Jenny was furious! Callie actually thinks that she was jealous, and is telling people she started the fire! It was probably Callie who started the fire, with her gross smoking habit afterall! She so did not start that fire.
"No!" Jenny shouted. "I didn't. I was with….someone."
Jenny didn't really want to say she was with Julian just yet…because she wasn't sure exactly what happened at that point.
Easy shook his head, "Well, I mean, I'd understand if you did, and I wouldn't judge you but…"
"No, really." Jenny said, "I didn't start the fire, I was with Julian."
There she said it.
"Oh, well, that doesn't make it sound much better…" Easy started. "Since it was his lighter found in the mess of it all…"
Shit. Shit. Shit.
"But, he didn't start it either…" Jenny said. "Maybe, since he was in the girls dorm, hiding out a lot, maybe he dropped it and one of the girls found it and got mad or something."
Easy shrugged, "Well, I don't know. But, just be warned I think Callie might go to the Dean about all of this."
Jenny felt her eyes fill with tears, "What?"
"I'm sorry, Jen." Easy sad patting her arm.
"This is so fucking stupid!" She said kicking a rock. "God, I didn't even do anything! And I've already been this close to getting expelled, and now I'll probably get expelled. Fuck!"
"Hey. Hey. Hey, calm down." Easy said. "I'll try to stop her…I'll talk to her about it, okay?"
Jenny looked at him, "Why would you do that?"
Easy flashed her his smile, "What are friends for?"
"Thanks."
"No problem." Easy said, "Plus, I believe you…because you weren't the only back there that night."
Well besides Easy, Callie, Jenny and Julian who else was back there by the barn last night?
Oh right, our dear friend Tinsley.
"Thanks." Jenny said, "Might wanna go before you get in trouble for talking to me."
Easy shrugged. "I can handle the trouble. Bye."
Jenny watched Easy walk away. She was glad they were friends, and glad that they broke up, in a way. Because now, she realized that he wasn't meant for her. That someone was still out there waiting for her…well, not waiting for her but, she'll find him one day. Maybe it was Julian…who cares if he's a year younger then her…
"Excuse me, hi. Do you know where Dumbarton is?" A short girl with dirty blonde hair asked.
"Uh, yeah that's my dorm." Jenny said "Why?"
"Oh, me and my friend." The girl said motioning to a slightly taller girl with black hair. "We're transfers and we didn't know where every place was…"
"Oh." Jenny said smiling. "I'm Jennifer Humphrey."
"I'm Jessica Burnett." The short girl said. "And this is—"
"Ashley Hiller." The other girl said, "Sup?"
"Nice to meet you guys." Jenny said smiling, "Call me Jenny."
Jessica nodded. "Okay."
"What room number are you guys?" Jenny asked.
"uhh…" Ashley started looking through her papers. "304"
"OHMIGOD!" Jenny squealed, "That's right next door to mine!"
"Cool." Jessica said.
Ashley smiled. "Warm."
What is with this girl saying opposites? Weirdass.
"Let's go then." Jenny said motioning towards a building, "This is Dumbarton. Buckle your seat belts, your in for a bumpy ride."
What was THAT supposed to mean?
