Hey guys! Sorry it took me so long! :P But anyways, here's your chapter!

I slam the door of my room and throw myself onto the bed face down. I bury my head into the pillow and bite the fabric. I scream as loud as I can into the pillow, so it's muffled.

When I'm done I turn over and face the ceiling. I should've known. I should've guessed he would turn out just like his dad.

I should've listened to my parents. Like they say, your parents know best. I think back to our old conversation.

"Don't get involved with that family. Don't get involved with him. He's a bad influence." dad had said. "You can't love him. Your father is right. Don't get involved with this family." mom had said back.

And what did I do? Completely ignore their advice. I walked out. Why do I have to be so stupid? They warned me.

I can feel the questions buzzing around my head. I try to block them out but I can still hear them.

Why would he do it? Why would he not stop her? Am I just not good enough for him? Is he embarrassed to be around me? Am I that bad?

I throw one of my pillows against the wall and watch as it falls to the ground. I lay down on my bed and stare at the ceiling.

Was this a joke the whole time? I have to admit, he had me fooled. I may be a girl to fall to hard for a guy, and to jump right into a relationship. But one thing i'm not is a girl who lets go easily. I'm a girl who always gets revenge.

So he's going to act like this? I smirk through my tears. Two can play at this game.

I shut my locker door and lean against it. His locker is five doors over if remember right.

Yep. He's walking down the hall right now. "Hey Rose." he says smiling at me.

"Hey Drew." I say smiling and walking up to him. "Listen, I want to apologize for what I said the other day. Thank you actually for keeping me company."

"It's okay. And you're welcome" he says smiling. He opens his locker and puts his books in. I look over my shoulder. Roy's standing right there at HIS locker watching our every move. Perfect. I turn back around.

"I guess I'll see you in class." I say turning to walk towards class. "Wait, Rose." he says reaching towards my turned back. I turn around.

"So you know the Spring dance is tonight and I was kind of wondering if you..." he trailed off looking at me hopefully.

"I'd love to." I say smiling big at him. He smiles and breathes what sounds like a sigh of relief.

"I'll pick you up at 7:00?" he asks still smiling.

"See you then." I say and give him a quick kiss the cheek. I give him one last smile and turn and walk towards class.

Roy is still standing there watching me. Good, so he saw the kiss. That's what I was going for. Payback.

I'm right about to pass him when his words startle me. "Rose. Can we please talk?"

But I keep walking. I have nothing to say to him.

I set my books down on my usual desk in the back and sit down. I'm right next to the window so I can watch something in class whenever I don't pay attention. I settle into my seat as my teacher walks in and starts talking about our newest assignment.

We have the same assignment every year. We all know how it goes. So not one person is paying attention.

I look down and start doodling in my notebook. I start to draw the tree in front of the school when a paper lands on my desk.

I look around. Nobody is looking at me. Everyone is off in their own little world.

Rose,
I'm so sorry. You don't know the whole story, please let me explain.
-Roy

I stare at the paper for a couple seconds, not knowing what to feel.

Then Roy looks back at me, a sad look on his face. His eyes pleading for me to listen to him. I stare for a moment, then turn to look out the window.

I don't know if I'm ready to listen.

I rush into my walk in closet. What am I going to wear? I didn't even plan on going to the dance untill Drew asked me!

Calm down. I tell myself. You have plenty of clothes to wear.

I look around and a blue dress catches my eye. I quickly change into it and look at myself in the mirror. It was sleveless so my bare shoulders were showing. But I don't mind. It's a little warm outside anyways. It flows all the way down to thee floor in waves. And it's bunched up in the middle. It's dark blue at the top and fades down to light blue at the bottom. It's perfect. I look at my hair. It's in it's usual braid.

I decide tonight is going to be different. I dig through my drawer untill I find what I'm looking for. I pull it out and plug it into the wall. I plug in the curling iron into the wall and wait a moment for it to heat up. I believe Effie gave it to me for my 13th birthday. I never thought I would use it.

I undo my braid and run a brush through it to straighten it out. Then I curl my hair at the bottom and stretch the curls out. I look at myself in the mirror. And I have to admit I look great. I put on a small amount of lipgloss and smile at myself in the mirror. Tonight will be great. I slide on some silver flats and look at the clock.

6:55. Drew will be here in about five minutes. I head downstairs to wait. "Where are you going?" I hear dad say. I turn around and smile at him.

"To the schoold dance." He smiles at me. "Well that's great. And you look beautiful Rose." He kisses me on the forhead.

"You're going with Roy I presume?" He asks.

"No Drew is taking me." I say simply. He raises an eyebrow but right before he can speak the doorbell rings.

"I got it!" I say. I open the door and see Drew standing there in a tux. I smile at him and he seems shocked for a moment.

"Hi." I say beaming. "Hi." He says returning the smile.

"Bye dad." I say turning around and giving him a hug. "I'll be back in time for bed." And with that I close the door behind me and stand on the porch.

"Shall we?" He asks holding his arm out to me. "We shall." I say laughing as he guides me down the stairs.

"You look great." he says turning to look at me. "So do you." I say smiling. We walk past Roy's house and I feel something in my chest. Hurt? Longing? Whatever it is I push it aside. I can have fun without him...right?

We walk in silence for a moment. "You know I heard they actually decorated for the dance this time." He says smiling.

And it turns out he was right. The dance is held in the gym and as soon as I walked in I noticed the decorations. There were tables with food and dcorations all over the wall. It was really nice.

I noticed music playing in the background but didn't pay much attention to it. There's plenty of time for dancing later.

"I'll go get some punch." Drew said walking towards a table. I stay put and played with one of the bracelets on my arm. There's a lot of people here. A lot of people on the dance floor dancing along with the fast beats of the music. I can't dance to fast songs. I just can't keep up with them.

Suddenly everyone turns their head towards the door as a girl walks in. I groan under my breath. Ugh. Erica. She of course is wearing the biggest dres ever. With a layers and lace. And even I have to admit it's beautiful. Her hair is straight as a stick and is wearing loads of make up to be perfect. She's smiling at everyone and of course right behind her is Roy. I look away but suddenly the music stops.

It gets quiet. It's too quiet. Everyone turns to face me. Angry looks on their faces. I back up into the corner. Do they think I stopped the music or something?

"It's her fault!" someone screams. "Get her!" another yells. They all come rushing towards me and I have no where to go. I look around frantically but it's hopeless. I'm cornered. I sink down to the floor and cover my head with my arms. I feel hands all around me tearing at me. Clawing at my skin. I try to scream but nothing comes out. I can't even breathe.

That's when I realize someone's choking me. I try to look up to see who it is but i can't lift my head. I gasp for breaths and see spots in my vision. I feel another hand on my back. "Rose."

I swat the hand away. But it comes back. "Are you okay? What's going on? Do I need to go get the nurse?" I hear a voices say to me.

I blink and then, boom. It's over. I suck air into my lungs taking big breaths and look up. I see two people in front of me. Drew and Roy. I see a small crowd behind them. I slowly stand up. "Are you okay?" Roy asks. "What happend?" Drew says.

I stand there wide eyed and still taking huge breaths. I look at them and slowly turn and then start running towards the exit. I need to get out of here.
