Chapter 17

I walk down the quad at school, the incident from yesterday still replays in my mind. I stop as I am stunned at the scene unfolding in front of me.

The cheerbitches lines up and politely bow their heads.

"Ah, Spencer Good morning is there anything we can do for you?" my eyes wide open, my mouth drops "We were very rude yesterday. If there is anything that the cheering squad can do for you, just tell us"

Everyone who can see or hear them is shocked. They said their good bye and walks away. If not for Kyla standing next to me, I would think this was only a dream.

"Hey, what is this? Reverse bullying?" I said

"Well, it's nice that the stupid bullying has stopped" Kyla said knowing perfectly well what has happened yesterday "Don't you have any idea why they're doing this, Spence?" she turns to me

"Not particularly" I shrug while sitting down on our usual table

"I was wondering though what was Ashley doing in school yesterday?" Kyla asked

"I don't know maybe Brooke has something to do with it. You should ask her"

"I will" she flips her phone and punches a few buttons. I see a figure walking towards us as I lift my head up and see Madison sheepishly standing "Uhm, c-can I talk with you Spencer? Alone?"

Kyla sees Madison "No way I am leaving you with Spencer alone, Madison" I nod

"F-fine" Madison said while gathering courage to continue "I was doing some paper work for Mr Miller and I stumble upon a certain document. I've been keeping quiet about this even though I'm deceiving people. I still kept quiet" She starts to cry and her lips tremble "In this document, the funds from Ashley Davies concert in school will be embezzled and if you do a little research, you'll see that the money was never going to the school. I'm sure the data is in Mr Miller's computer. If you know a hacker, you can see it for yourself"

I can't believe this. This feels really sad "Eh um hold on why are you talking to me about this?"

"Because I know you know Ashley, right?" Madison said

"Wait a second I don't believe a word you just said Madison" Kyla stands up "My sister works for Ashley. If what you say is true, my sister is in it. So I don't believe you" she shakes in fury "Leave"

"I'll leave but do the research" Madison leaves but I see a faint smirk playing on her lips

I stare down the table as Kyla sits and settle down beside me "Surely you don't believe her Spence. Brooke will never do something like that. Between Madison and Brooke, who do you think is the lying manipulative bitch?"

Of course I don't believe her but what if it's true? How can we really know? What if Brooke doesn't know? What if Ashley doesn't know? Maybe I need to do a little research but how? Who can I call for a favour? My thoughts immediately fall on Lily the only constant and reliable person I know. Lily, is it true what Madison said? Will you be able to help us find the truth? "I don't know what'll happen but" I flip my phone

"But what?" Kyla studies me

Lily,

Please help us. Please find proof if the money from Ashley Davies' concert will be misused. The data is in the principal's computer. The head cheerleader asked me earnestly.

Spencer

Instantly, I get a reply from Lily

Really, Sunshine? Until now, you've been very stubborn and just when I thought that you're asking me for a favour for the very first time, it turns out it's for someone else. Don't worry though, I will help you. I will see what I can do.

Lily

"What'd she say?" Kyla looking over my shoulder to read the message "How can she help us? Is she a hacker or something?"

Lily, is it true that you're a hacker? Will you really help me and be by my side? Are you here by my side even now?

Kyla tugs me "You got a new message, Spence"

Sunshine,

Someone will contact you in a while. She will have the information you need. I wonder if I've helped you by doing this. Remember, I am always watching over you. I'll definitely protect you no matter what. I'll make sure that you're happy.

Lily

Just like a dream her words which seemed to hold me remained…

RING RING RING

I flipped my phone. My heart pounded in my crest thinking it might finally be Lily calling. A female voice which sounded familiar called to me

"Spencer? Can you hear me?"

"Ah, A-ashley? Is that you?"

Kyla leans closer to my side, press her ear to my phone trying to hear my unknown caller. She mouths "It's Brooke" to me

"No honey, it's ah me Brooke" She stutters which surprises me. Brooke is not that easily stunned "I forgot to tell you, I got your number from Kyla a while back. Is that okay?"

My heart sank that it's not Lily calling but it pounded much harder when I heard her call me honey.

"Yeah it's fine" I press my ear closer so I can hear her angelic voice clearer

"Anyways, I just received an email which contained a rumour that Ashley's concert is going to embezzle some money which I think is totally absurd and I should inform you immediately. Oh honey where in God's name did you hear that? If you want, I can show you some documents. I'll pick you guys up later and I will show it to you, okay?"

"No need Brooke. I just got this ridiculous rumour from Madison that fucking bitch is trying to mess with my head. Sorry about that"

"What did I say about the language, honey?"

"Sorry but I'll still see you later, right?"

"Of course silly Spence"

"Oh wait by the way, I was wondering what was Ashley doing in school yesterday"

"Ah um I think she was j-just checking the school out. Yea, that's it. She's checking the site for her concert yesterday" She stutters again like she was uncertain. Maybe I'm having that effect on her, hmmm no of course not. I really am silly.

"If you see her, please tell her thank you again"

"OK I will. See you later"

She hangs up. I turn to Kyla who is sporting an I-told-you-so look. I wipe my hand across her face "Do not look at me like that" We laugh. What was I thinking though? Of course, Madison is lying. She just wants to get back at Ashley from what happened yesterday.

Classes are out and I am waiting in the quad for Brooke to arrive and Kyla said she will be running late. Suddenly, I hear a scream and see a woman running towards the parking lot frantically holding what looks like a lock of hair. Then she turns to me, tears streaming down her face and I realize its Madison. Someone has shaved her hair and by the looks of it they didn't do a pretty good job. All around her head I see patches of boldness she resembled a soccer ball. I fight the urge to point and laugh instead I turn my head and giggled silently.

As I turn I see Brooke walking and proudly grinning. At this site, a thought hits me. I recall all of the times I've seen her and thought she looks vaguely familiar. Her face, her voice, her physic it all adds up. Now I know where I've seen her. A lot had happened today but…

"Sorry I'm late" She said grinning

"Are you Ashley?"

A/N: Oh snap motherfucker! I know it's not that big of a surprise now. Thank you Guest for blowing my big reveal puff now I'm mad haha I know it kind of looks like I rushed into it but sorry I'm just so excited. Ok, I will make you a deal. The more reviews, favourites and follows makes me happy. Happy me=faster updates, deal?
