"I don’t think it’s online, but Paige…ere you thinking?" She honestly believes I’ around to see who’s watching us Nobody cares, and no one has turned their heads once Porn The one girl--not related to est, thinks I’e," she says, her brow pinched, her face in intervention…it’s ridiculous

"Lexi," I say her name back with a little bite, and she flinches "I ae," she says, leaning her head to one side and affecting pity I hold her stare for a few long seconds, the crowd behind her blurring out as wo class for the day swear and push one another And then I realize…I remember

"Oh My God!" I say in a short and panicked voice, standing and looking around Still…nobody notices me I sit back down and let my face fall into my hands

Rush as hell, and Chandra s One of theuys, and she filmed it It was sort of innocent, and we only went down to our bra and panties--but Chandra filht have fil else And fuck!

"Who showed you this? Where was it? How did they show you? Who gave it to theh oes to UCLA, and she lives on Tabitha Snyder’s floor I guess Tab knows your sister and so? Cass didn’t show her I don’t think Cass even knows, if that’s what you’re worried about, but that other girl had the video and e around"

I stand before Lexi’s done talking, and she stands withher purse close to her body like so around aboutout of the ork because there’s a stupid fucking ru around about me

I feel her hand reach for the back of e? Why? Did you need ? Ilike that?" I note the way she’s looking at me while she talks I think there’s a part of her concern that is genuine But she’s also made it clear she’d cut me loose in a heartbeat to save her own reputation--even if it et money for it," I say,with herfor the big protest, for my explanation--which I actually do have I probably should defend myself, but I just don’t feel like it I don’t think Lexi deserves it, and I don’t think it would do any good

I turn and leave Lexi behind, calling my mom to come pick me up at a restaurant a block away When she comes, her face painted with that same worried expression I’ve seen too o shter doesn’t do shit like that

Tabitha went to our high school, and she played on the team there with Cass She’s also Chandra’s cousin--and like Chandra, Tabitha never really cared for my sister So I’m sure she was happy to help spread a lie about me, and I’et back to the house, I do a frenzied search online for ht The threat is real I search through Tabitha’s Facebook posts--glad she’s too stupid to keep her page private When I see pictures of her and Chandra, I feel , I pull e to Houston

Got your e Yes I’ll take the rooe a week ago, and then nothing I should probably find out when she’s co back to campus, when she’ll be here, when I should start her lease Lease! I need to send her paperwork for that, too Not that I don’t trust her, but uy leave in theus six hundred bucks

I need you to sign a lease…
